Elden Ring isn't one of those games where you want to just charge in head first after picking the class with the prettiest armor. Each of the game's 10 different classes offers unique gameplay, and your success (or failure) will greatly depend on the decisions you make at the beginning of the game. Here we've got our round-up of the least-effective to best classes in the game to help you get a foothold. Which will you choose?
Elden Ring is an action role-playing game developed by FromSoftware and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. The game was made in collaboration with fantasy novelist George R. R. Martin, who provided material for the game's setting.
Elden Ring takes place in the realm of the Lands Between, sometime after the destruction of the titular Elden Ring and the scattering of its shards, the Great Runes. Once graced by the Ring and the Erdtree which symbolizes its presence, the realm is now ruled over by the demigod offspring of Queen Marika the Eternal, each possessing a shard of the Ring that corrupts and taints them with power. As Tarnished-exiles from the Lands Between who lost the Ring's grace and are summoned back after the Shattering, players must traverse the realm to ultimately find all the Great Runes, restore the Elden Ring, and become the Elden Lord.

I have a soft spot for witches due to my love for horror.

Great build opportunities for someone who is very strategical. Long live mage builds.

Yeah honestly don't understand how Astrologer isn't listed as number 1. Yes you don't get a 100% shield from the get but you can find one pretty easy and you can pick up a katana fairly easy at the start as well, just need a few levels in dex and strength to use it. Honestly most bosses are a joke at range with magic and you start with two of the arguably best spells in the game along with a decent staff to cast them with. Not to mention if you're not fighting at melee range you don't need a 100% shield, hell even if you are you can just dodge well and it's a non issue. I personally don't understand the big push with melee builds, even if I play one I'll at least use some spells and duel wielding seems kind of pointless to me, think I would rather 2 hand and switch back to sword and board, what advantages other than looking cool is two weapons? Combos? Honestly not sure.

For me the best class to start as a new player is astrologer. In this game's beginning every enemy can two to three shot you and you will die.This causes most of the new players to rage quit. So starting a class where you can stay at a distance and take down your enemies is always preferred.

I thought this as well. Started off as prisoner, and started slinging spells. It completely trivialized the game. Not a single boss kill was remotely satisfying in any way, because all i did was roll roll roll and spam spells. The game went from "hey i gotta figure out this boss" to just spam spells gg ez win.

The confessor is hands down the most versatile class. I'm about 70 hours in and I am still using the base sword at level 22 with a bleed ash of war, the pulley bow at max, and the starting magic seal at level 22. If you spec into Vigor, Strength, a tad Dex, a little more Endurance, and then high Faith, you will be unstoppable.

Starting class is actually pretty subjective this time. In prior games there was definitely a meta class. In DS3 it was the knight. This time, depending on what you wanna run, the best starting class changes. If want sorcery it's the prisoner, if you want miracles it's the confessor, and the best choice for strength or quality is the knight, while the best choice for dex is the samurai. Samurai also starts with uchigana and the longbow, which probably makes it the best for beginners.

The wretch, while the least equipped, is the only level 1 class. The rest vary somewhere between level 8 to 12 (all over level 5). They also start with 10 in all stats, something no other class has. While not the easiest or necessarily the best, I think the wretch is the easiest to customize. I started with an int/dex build and have since gone to int/str/dex with enough faith and arcane to cast most but the highest level of incantations. By using magic on AOW on weapons like The Dismounter or already magical enchanted weapons like the Darkmoon Greatsword. I like how with high intellect (63) adds not only to these already powerful weapons, but ranged magic damage as well. I have a console recorded video of me "kame-a-meaing" about 3/4 of Moghs health. Yes, I do OP attacks on bosses because I suck. 😂

I started as a wretch and i'm in my first 20 hours of gameplay and honestly i'd say for the first playthrough wretch is the best if you want to have a full experience of the game starting from 0, it makes you appreciate any loot you get and i've tried out so many different weapons and armors i've gotten from loot. I just made my build depending on the weapons and gear i got. The other classes are only better if you already have a build in mind and know what playstyle you want to use from the beginning of the game but i'd say starting as a wretch atleast in your first playthrough would be the best and most fun option. I'm no souls games fan nor do i own or play any of those games but i liked elden ring mainly because of the open world rpg style and for the replayability. So far i'm having a lot of fun playing as a wretch, sure you only start with a club and it's a bit harder early on but there are so many ways you can ease your way around that honestly + the club isn't all that bad to bonk with xd

I think after a week of deciding and starting over repeatedly (its how I do things) this video helped me choose finally! Gonna go with Astrologer. Wait, no... Samurai. Nah, Astrologer. Maybe Samurai? Ooh, Confessor! Hero with pure STR. Stealth/poison/bleed/rot Bandit? Hmmm... Oh man, I'm never gonna pick one. 😂

@@justanotherdude_ I’m brand new and I had fun with it. One thing that wasn’t clear to me is it really only matters for the first few hours at most. The first time you try and round the corner outside stormvweil gates on horseback in your underwear armed with a stick you learn pretty quickly when that first fireball ballista blows you back down the mountain. Then you explore and gear up - and it just becomes a matter of preference IMO

My first play through was samurai, and was very difficult. I had to be level 120 if I’m not mistaken to defeat draconite tree sentinel. By the time I reached ng+ I was level 170. And new game plus was way too easy, even melinia. So I started from scratch as astrologer. It was way easier to start, because of ranged spells. Some bosses beat from first try, others 3 tries max. (I just reached mountaintops of the giants.)

I am going to get this on my birthday for PlayStation five and DLC as well. I’m going with the samurai sword. I want to be a samurai and I reckon it’ll be a really good class to start out. I’ve never played a dark soul but I’ve playing one and I’m enjoying it so much. I put three hours into the game and I’m loving doc souls.

Wretch is the most fun for me, starts at level one and you can put its stats in whatever direction you want. Put on whatever clothing and gear you find out in the world to make it a character who just scavenge's whatever they find. Wearing and using whatever they come across amd working with that. Also, it's just funny to run around in the beginning, almost butt ass naked and all, lol.
