What Are The Best Support Classes in Elsword?

The El Gang

Here we are again with another informational article on Elsword. This time we will be exploring the depths of the Support Classes and who are the best to use.

With each raid party there contains support characters that can Freeze, Buff, Clean, and/or Heal MP/HP. Every raid party is extremely picky about who to add for total or partial support.

A Freezer is a party member that can stop the Boss Monster’s movements consistently, without giving it any wiggle room to attack, a.k.a, frozen enemies will be unable to move or attack for a certain amount of time.

A Buffer is a party member that provides Magical or Physical increases in Attack Power, Movement Speed, Attack Speed, Action Speed, Jump Speed, and just so much more. Of course, other characters that aren't a support class can provide these buffs but they aren't important right now.

A Cleaner is a party member who can Cleanse a teammate and/or the Party of Debuffs given by the Boss Monster. Whether the Debuff is not having the ability to move, not being able to use consumables, confusion, and other Debuffs, that person is there to free you from the burdens of the Boss Monster.

And we all know what a healer is. But, other than Combat Power being essential in their decisions, what character you play is the most important part. Whether the party is looking for a Freezer, Buffer, Cleaner, or all three combined, this is who they will choose!
