Heroes of Hammerwatch 2 Tier List
There are 8 classes currently available in Heroes of Hammerwatch 2, and we’ve ranked them from best to worst below.
S Tier
S tier features the absolute best characters on offer in Heroes of Hammerwatch 2. We recommend picking these characters over the others, particularly when you’re new at the game. They won’t require mastering to make the most out of.
- Paladin
- Warrior
A Tier
This tier features characters that are solid and reliable but may require some mastery to learn. If you’re quite familiar with the game, and fancy something a little different, give them a try.
- Sorcerer
- Warlock
B Tier
B tier characters are fine. They’re not exceptional, nor particularly bad. If you’re looking for a challenge, they’re a good choice to pick.
- Wizard
C Tier
Characters in this tier are okay in niche circumstances, but are otherwise worth avoiding. Even when mastering, they aren’t particularly powerful.
- Ranger
- Rogue
D Tier
We don’t recommend using these characters under any circumstances.
- Priest
Who Are the Best Characters in Heroes of Hammerwatch 2?
Let’s take a closer look at the characters we consider to be the best in Heroes of Hammerwatch 2.
Paladin
Put simply, Paladins are borderline impossible to kill. Their abilities provide you with temporary immunity to damage, increase your shield or attack power, and they can even heal themselves.
The trade off is that you won’t deal quite as much damage as the other classes, but you can’t really deal damage when you’re dead. So there’s that.
Warrior
Speaking of damage, the Warrior is an absolute powerhouse in that department. You can boost your attack power, perform shouts to heal allies or weaken enemies, or increase the speed of your attacks.
You won’t quite survive as well as you do when playing as a Paladin, but you have a greater chance of destroying your enemies before they can deal damage in the first place.
