Ascendant Roles & Classes

Roles

Your role is your specific responsibility within the team composition.

• // Fighter You are the main source of Attack Damage for PvP fights as well dealing damage to slime. So Ascendants from classes that deal a greater amount of damage are optimal. Best suited classes: Gunslinger, Solweaver, Bruiser

• // Hacker Equipped with special equipment that allows for map manipulation, spawning crafting stations and portals. The Hacker engages in a meta game of ensuring the team is able to keep progressing throughout the map. Best suited classes: Scrub

• // Support Tasked with the critical role of protecting and disrupting or engaging/disengaging from other teams. This role is definitely easy to pick up, but a great support exercises great situational awareness. Best suited classes: Support (Healer, Tank, Crowd Controller)

• // Slayer The team is relying on you specifically for dealing damage to mutated creatures, you have a modification that allows you to deal significantly increased damage against these creatures, with an additional one-shot special ability that allows you to execute low health creatures. Best suited classes: Gunslinger, Solweaver, Bruiser

Classes

Classes are the categories of play-style an Ascendant is best defined as, providing a classification guide for their base stats, item affinities and abilities.

• Tank Tanks have far greater base armour and health at the cost of lesser damage output. Allowing you to endure more in team fights and survive burst damage much better.

• Bruiser The optimal class for extended team fights, able to both endure and deal a high amount of damage over a lengthier engagement.

• Scrub - A smaller and more agile Ascendant that is usually more evasive with a higher damage output. As these Ascendants are of smaller size, they have lower base health and armour stats.

• Gunslinger Wielding ranged weapons these Ascendants excel in team fights when they're able to keep the enemy at a distance.

• Weaver These are characters that benefit from evolving their inherent cosmic abilities with ability powered items.

• Support These Ascendants have more specialised abilities geared towards controlling fights, locking down enemies and keeping your team alive. Given your kit is focused on utility, support players often deal less damage or are more vulnerable when caught out of position. - Healer - Heal and shield your team - Tank - Tank Damage and provide cover for your team - Crowd Controller - Lock down, immobilise or knock-back enemies
