Azeroth Survivors tier list (v0.130.0)
| Tier | Classes | Why |
|---|---|---|
| S | Hunter, Warlock, Mage | The highest damage; Hunter and Warlock also stay safe thanks to range and pets or demons |
| A | Paladin, Warrior, Shaman | Reliable and forgiving; Paladin and Warrior are the best classes to learn on |
| B | Priest, Druid, Rogue | Workable, but harder to clear zones with at the moment |
This ranking follows the community consensus for version 0.130.0. The game is patched often — for example, version 0.128 changed Demoralizing Shout to help allies and lowered the Soul Link shield cap — so tiers can move quickly.
Why Hunter, Warlock and Mage are S tier
- Hunter: attacks from a safe distance, gets free extra damage from pets and lands strong single-target critical hits, which makes boss fights much easier.
- Warlock: damage-over-time spells spread from corpse to corpse through whole packs, summoned demons fight alongside you, and the DoTs heal you. Players often build towards a Demonology Pit Lord setup.
- Mage: clears the screen faster than anyone and has three capstone talents to aim for, but has the least health and no pets, so mistakes are punished.
A tier: the best classes for beginners
Paladin and Warrior are the classes most guides recommend for a first run. Paladin's healing and defensive talents forgive mistakes, and Warrior is sturdy, with popular Whirlwind builds that spin through packs. Shaman plays around totems and procs — strong once you learn where to place your damage, but less forgiving at first.
Build tips for every class
- Pick a core spell early and rank it up every time it appears.
- Take one area-damage and one single-target spell so you can handle both waves and bosses.
- Use rerolls on bad level-ups rather than taking a card that does not fit your build.
- Invest talents into your capstone path instead of spreading points thinly.
- Match gear and jewels to your class — the Armory has a gear set for each of the nine classes.
