Valkyrie (Female Warrior) – Tanking Support (and 72% cooler than Warrior)
The female counterpart to the Warrior is the Valkyrie. Similar to her male counterparts, she loves to be on the front lines and can absorb damage with her shield or deal relatively solid damage.
However, she lacks mobility abilities, leaving her with few retreat or pursuit options. To compensate for this shortcoming, she has support abilities – particularly fitting for a Valkyrie, a motivating female warrior symbol.
Anyone wanting to play the jack-of-all-trades character, tanking, healing, and dealing damage simultaneously, should consider the Valkyrie.
Berserker – The Wolf in Human Skin
Raw, animalistic power characterizes the Berserker. His place is at the forefront, where he mercilessly harasses enemies until one of them lies in the dirt. He carries strong control effects and can hold entire groups of enemies at bay, surviving for a while due to his medium armor.
If the two axes are not enough to turn enemies into firewood, the Berserker can temporarily transform into a giant wolf, massively increasing his offensive and defensive abilities.
Anyone wanting to play a character who goes all out and doesn’t back down an inch should choose the Berserker.
Sorceress – Mana-hungry Destroyer
The Sorceress not only brings a cool gothic look but also plenty of destructive spells. Unlike the Witch and Wizard, she relies on occasionally stepping into melee combat to unleash spells that would have no effect at long range.
The Sorceress is more suited for experienced players since managing her mana is difficult, and overzealous players may run out of juice after just a few spells.
Additionally, the difficulty lies in that the Sorceress hardly forgives mistakes, and even veterans may often find themselves face-first on the ground. At the same time, skilled players of this class are among the greatest dangers encountered in Black Desert – in PvP, these ladies should always be a high target priority.
