In the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online there are 6 different classes. We asked you which your favorite class is. And you decided! We created a ranking of the classes here at MeinMMO.
On August 7th, we asked you which your favorite class in ESO is. You could participate in this survey until September 2nd at 5:30 PM. A total of 1,885 of our readers voted, and we created a ranking of all classes based on your votes.
Rank 6 – The Dragonknight
What distinguishes the Dragonknight? – The Dragonknight has many fire and poison abilities, some of which deal damage over time. The class has been available since the release of the MMORPG and was the only class that could be effectively played as a tank in the early years.
Few of you voted for the Dragonknight. With 280 out of 1885 votes, it only secured 14.85% of the reader votes.
Rank 5 – The Necromancer
What distinguishes the Necromancer? – The Necromancer has set foot in Tamriel with the Elsweyr Chapter. He can summon undead and use corpses for further abilities. He has a wide range of spells and deals many different types of damage including plague, fire, frost, and shock damage.
The Necromancer reaches 5th place with just 2 votes ahead of the Dragonknight. He could only win 282 votes, which is 14.96% of the total.
Rank 4 – The Warden
What distinguishes the Warden? – The Warden appeared with the Morrowind Chapter. He is therefore the first class that found its way into the game after the release. He can summon nature creatures like a Netch, a Scrivener, and a bear.
The placement of the Warden was also a very close race. He achieved only 287 votes, which is 15.23% of the reader votes, narrowly beating the Necromancer.
Rank 3 – The Sorcerer
What distinguishes the Sorcerer? – The Sorcerer has many lightning spells and can summon daedric creatures in combat. He is a popular class for beginners due to his strong shield and significant self-healing.
The Sorcerer won the tightly contested last 4 places. 290 readers’ votes went to him, achieving a share of 15.38% of all votes.
Rank 2 – The Nightblade
What distinguishes the Nightblade? – The abilities of the Nightblade are reminiscent of an assassin. She can become invisible and deals great damage with her executing ability, Assassin’s Blade.
The Nightblade secured 2nd place with 320 votes. However, with a total of 16.98% of the reader votes, she only had a small lead over the following classes.
Rank 1 – The Templar
What distinguishes the Templar? – The abilities of the Templar are all enveloped in golden radiant light. He is a popular class for healers. Although now every other class can serve as a healer, he was for a long time the dominant choice for this role. He is one of the 4 classes that have existed since the release of ESO.
The clear winner is the Templar. With a share of 22.6% and a total of 426 votes, he secured 1st place in the race.
This makes him the most popular class in ESO by a significant margin based on the results of our survey.
