1. Wizard (S Tier)

Having trained through the academies in Sanctuary, the wizard is a masterful class that holds the mysteries of the arcane. Being a highly intelligent spellcaster, this character is adept not only in dealing heavy bolts of destruction but also in evading the risks within their haunting surroundings.

An Elemental Virtuoso: Through the years, the wizard has championed absorbing the knowledge required in casting elements to their benefit. Whether they choose to throw massive balls of fire, slow their enemies with high velocity winds and freezing capabilities, or even shock them with heavy bolts of lightning, the wizard remains one of the deadly heavy hitters in the game.
A Strong Influencer: The pace of fights can be heavily influenced due to the various crowd control abilities that the wizard has. From the truly debilitating and crippling Black Hole that draws enemies within the sphere and renders them useless for a certain point of time, to slowly chilling opponents with their scattered and far hitting Ray of Frost, warriors do truly struggle when an adept wizard is blocking their way.
The Split-Second Escape Artist: Everything isn’t just an advantage with this class because as they are blessed with immense power, they come lacking on the vitality aspect of the game. Careless wizards can easily be taken down, but it’s a good thing to have the teleport ability handy, in case a close threat were to take place. Quick hands are required though, so be extra vigilant with the dangers lurking from behind.
A Frozen Shield for Low Risk takers: For players who do not want to take chances of being easily slayed, there is an ability where the spellcaster can cast either a shield that would absorb the damage taken for a certain amount of time, or it could also be modified with legendary equipments and their special spell enhancing abilities. In this case, the Ice Shield can be modified to absorb six strikes as opposed to mere damage quantity.
Disabling Time: Not only can the wizard summon a black hole and teleport, as this class can also alter time to bring the cards to their advantage. Wizards can slow time by casting a wide sphere wherein enemies who fall into this trap would be crippled and slowed down as they get beaten up with whatever spells the wizard sends to them. It works best with allies when dealing damage to the feared whales in Diablo Immortal.
Defense or Offense?: The vast array of abilities that wizards have allow them to play defensively and mess up the PvP rounds with a game of chase, or also be feared by showcasing their extreme punishing power to those who stand against them, making them a class that is truly worth the try.
The Spectacular Solo In-game Experience: It has always been quite a challenge to farm solo when playing MMOs using a wizard character due to its low health points, but not here in Diablo Immortal. The wizard can be effective in clearing hordes of opponents when exploring the open world. Be sure to equip the right abilities and you will enjoy every minute of being a Wizard in the land of Sanctuary!

Overall Power Rating: 91/100

2. Demon Hunter (S Tier)

It’s a no-brainer to run when you see a fierce hunter carrying two crossbows. The demon hunter is one of the most popular classes in Diablo Immortal due to its feared damage output and tremendous range. For players who haven’t tried other classes out, this is definitely one of the top picks that I would suggest to you.

The Absolute Punisher: The demon hunter is glorified and feared at the same time for its insane damage dealing outputs that it could deal upon. So rejoice if you have one in your team but if you come facing this nightmare, do make sure that you hunt the hunter in order for you not to be the one that’s hunted.
The Ridiculous Reach: Whether it’s showering deadly arrows from above or summoning wolves to push through in packs, this fighter is known for its extremely long-range damage dealing capabilities.
A Trapping Phenom: Having the ability to easily adapt to their surroundings has always been a key feature of the demon hunters ventures. With that, crafting traps and expertly setting them up has been a part of the class’s success. So, it’s not just the long-range capabilities that one should be weary of when faced with these ruthless characters.
Heavy Crowd-Control Master: Playing through quite a few MMORPGs throughout the years, I have been having the difficulty to defend myself when faced with mobs of enemies while controlling a ranged bow-wielding character. However, that’s not the case with the demon hunter as he could easily impair monsters with crowd control abilities that are available to the class.
Swift Enemy Annihilator: Facing hordes of enemies in the world of sanctuary is one of the dangers that come when roaming through each time you move on to a higher difficulty. This is not the case with this class having AoE abilities as well, clearing monsters is a breeze.
Dual-Weapon Madness: A crossbow itself can be truly deadly in its own form. When you add another one, it enables this class to transform into a painful hitter in all the ways possible!
An Agile Predator: With high damage output comes the disadvantage of having lower vitality. Although that is a fact, the survivability of the demon hunter makes it even more deadly as it is extremely agile and could either flee or chase enemies with ease.

Overall Power Rating: 95/100

3. Necromancer (A Tier)

If you want to side with the living dead, the Necromancer is a great class to try out. Players can truly immerse themselves in what Diablo Immortal really is when playing this undead sorcerer. A mix of both worlds between the living and the dead, and in terms of combat capabilities, although with just the medium range this time, when used right can be more than a nightmare for anyone they face off with.

The Great Summoner: Summoning skeleton warriors from the underworld and demons from the burning pits of hell, the necromancer can be a tough class to encounter.
Be Masterful on Timing: It is a must to be able to time your summoning skills well when using this character as it can be a matter of life or death especially in PvP matches.
An Exceptional Defender: The necromancer is superb when it comes to defending against monsters or even players and the constant summoning could hinder the opponent’s abilities useless amongst their real foes which are the characters behind those summoned nuisance creatures.
Perplex yet effective in Solo play: Due to the amount of summons that the necromancer spells out to fight for him, this class is outstanding when it comes to playing solo, especially when fighting against bosses.
Crippling Spells: It has been discussed that the necromancer works mostly based on summoning monsters, but certain skills that it possesses such as Bone Spikes that poke lethal spikes on the floor could also disable players or monsters that try to go against them.
Controlling the Dead: One of the underrated skills that the Necromancer has is called the Corpse Explosion, wherein it allows him to detonate all of the surrounding corpses in the area to deal extra damage.
An Invisible Ghost: If you have been playing Diablo Immortal for a while now, you might have noticed a Necromancer just vanished and turned into a ghost. This spell is called the Wraith Form which boosts the Necromancer’s movement speed and also gives temporary immunity from all damage.

Overall Power Rating: 83/100

4. Barbarian (A Tier)

For those who are fans of sheer and utter hardcore mayhem, the Barbarian is an easy choice! This ferocious melee warrior allows players to experience pure brute force amongst its enemies. No one dares to come close against a raging heavy-duty barbarian or else a dreadful slaughter is sure to occur.

An Act of Destruction: Due to its wide range of AoE (Area-of-Effect) abilities, this explosive class can plough through countless waves of monsters with ease!
A Heavy-duty Maniac: The immense strength of the barbarian is just frightful as this fighter isn’t just made for hacking-and-slashing on to oncoming victims, but also, the tough build of its nature makes this class extremely difficult to take down.
Chasing delight: One of the most frustrating parts of playing a melee character is the inability to chase other classes during PVP (Player-versus-Player) encounters. However, the barbarian comes with a range of abilities that allow him to be mobile and hasty. Those who are lucky enough to obtain special gems that cooldown these abilities always turn out to be the most annoying ones to face off in the game.
Weapons Galore: The barbarian has adapted to quite a range of weaponry throughout the many series of Diablo. His versatility allows him to wield axes and swords that increase the violent damage as he specializes in dual weapon builds.
A Whirlwind Sensation: The robust crowd control capabilities that the barbarian possesses enables him to knockback foes and stun them, while slowly punishing them in a whirlwind fashion.
The Crippling Abilities: Combining the best abilities together allows the barbarian to dominate. Skills like the Wrath of Berserker and Frenzy boosts this warrior’s attack speed. When paired with the skill Demoralize which releases a loud roar and forces enemies to attack, dropping the Hammer of the Ancients that deals a huge splash of damage, being in a frenzied state, slashing through your enemies is just like slicing through a piece of butter.
The Ceaseless Endurance: An ability feared upon is the Undying Rage, and it does live to what it’s called. When used at the right time, the barbarian can endure a hefty steak of damage as it allows the character to enter a furious rage for a certain amount of seconds, thus preventing death and converting the damage received into life points instead.

Overall Power Rating: 89/100

5. Crusader (A Tier)

The main issue that I have faced when playing a support character on MMORPGs is the lack of damage that a class usually has and also the inability for them to catch up. It is absolutely brilliant that Diablo Immortal has taken this into consideration for those who want to play a support role.

A Mammoth that’s built to last: The crusader is by far the toughest class to beat in the game. This class has immense vitality and was created to push through the vanguard.
Need for absolute speed: Just like the boss called the Skeleton King in the dungeon of Ashworld Cemetery, this warrior can transform and summon an undead horse to mount and face the enemies head on!
Splash Attacks: It is surprising that the crusader could farm well even by itself in the open world, thanks to the AoE skills that he has, clearing minions is possible without the need to join a group of heavy hitters.
A necessity with difficulty: Despite the Wizard and Demon Hunter having extreme damage already, a party would better consist of a crusader to influence the output of the battles, as this class can give a heavy boost to damage output!
A Great Functioning Wall of Steel: The crusader does not just serve as a punching bag in the front of battles but with the many abilities such as the Shield Glare that blinds enemies and the Shield Charge that stuns opponents for 3 seconds, this class is of high purpose.
Draw and Charge!: Adding up to the tankiness of this character comes an ability that dispels all of the crippling effects casted upon. As the crusader mounts the stellar horse in battle, the class gets a 60% boost in movement speed as well.
The Weapons of Choice: Players could either wield hammers or flails to smash upon the faces of victims of this brutal class.

Overall Power Rating: 83/100

6. Monk (B Tier)

A well-concentrated yet agile barbarous character, the monk can ruthlessly knock their prey out with their heavy hitting fists and constant combinations. This class is a must try if you are a fan of martial arts, as the graphics in the game showcases its magnificent abilities.

Focusing Inner Strengths: The monk's dedication to the mind and strength enables him to achieve brute forces of damage upon their enemies in swift rapidly constant motions.
Heavy Hitting Fists: Never challenge a monk in a fist fight as there would surely be bloodshed with his rock hard fists of steel!
Never Knew Who Hit Them: The Fists of Thunder, which is the monk's basic attack releases a combo of punches that deals heavy damage. The monk could then teleport again after landing the third hit. When the monk’s ultimate is unleashed, the Lightning Flux boosts the primary attack for another 12 seconds, showering thunderstorms upon them.
Disabling Ability: A skill called the Mystic Strike can be charged with a maximum of three charges and is used to dash forward. It isn’t just used to dash but also it leaves a ghost-like entity behind which would pull the opponent towards the monk’s body upon returning to him.
Doppelganger Capability: This class is renowned for its ability to replicate itself by summoning two spirit ghosts. These allies attack the monk’s enemies and copy the original health points as well as the damage of the player for a legendary battle!
Toughening Up: The Inner Sanctuary that this fighter places gives temporary protection towards himself and his allies for a little over nine seconds. This can be quite significant during difficult boss raids as it decreases damage taken to a substantial half of what you would usually receive!
A Class for the Ambitious: Despite having dash and teleport abilities, the monk can be burdensome and challenging to wield compared to other classes. This fighter is not suitable for a beginner, which is why it falls to the B tier on this class ranking.
