13 Best PVE Classes In Black Desert

Dark Knight

Dark Knight was one of the first classes in Black Desert. It was a real RPG fantasy class with a lot of flashy moves and skills. The Dark Knight is a great class for new players because it’s easy to learn and does a lot of damage while also being able to move around and avoid enemies.

In his base form, the Dark Knight uses a razor-sharp blade and dark energy to make strikes that move quickly and cover a wide area. When the Dark Knight wakes up, he gets a second blade and the power to direct it telekinetically. He can stab a lot of people at once in a purple and pink flash, like Byakuya Kuchiki in Bleach.

Musa

The Musa was one of the first classes to come out when Black Desert was released in the West, and it gave all other classes a strong foundation to build on. The Musa, in its basic form, is a good class that does middling damage and has simple attacks. It is based on the samurai and uses a sword that looks like a Katana.

Players can cut anything in front of them to size with quick, accurate blows. Musa’s awakening changes the sword with a Naginata, a polearm weapon that makes the Musa’s attacks more powerful and gives them a fiery after-effect.

Corsair

With the release of the Corsair class comes the anger of the seven seas. This class shows how far Black Desert has come since its first release. The Corsair is a class that does a lot of damage, has a long range, and moves around a lot.

In its basic form, the class uses a Cutlass that moves waves of sharp water along its edge, cutting enemies into small pieces. Once the Corsair wakes up, she gives up her elegant blade for a weapon that looks more like a Gunblade. She also gives up her water-based attacks in exchange for the ability to fully become the pirate of Black Desert by calling on friends and launching a barrage of artillery fire that destroys large areas.

Valkyrie

The Valkyrie class is one that can only be used by women in Black Desert. In its basic form, the Valkyrie fights with a shield and a sword, which it uses in strong attacks. In its basic form, the Valkyrie strikes by slashing in a wide arc with its blade and by hitting and throwing with its shield, which sends out waves of force to increase the range of its attacks.

As with the other classes in Black Desert, players can awaken the Valkyrie and gain access to her Lancia weapon. This gives the Valkyrie a tower shield and a massive lance that has wide sweeping attacks and can call down strong light-based attacks that hit a wide area. Players can also follow the Valkyrie’s succession tree to make her base weapon even stronger.

Striker

In Black Desert, the Striker is a class that focuses on hand-to-hand fighting and is very aggressive. In its basic form, the Striker uses bracers to make strong strikes and kicks. At the same time, it moves quickly around the battlefield to its benefit.

The awakening of the Striker gives the class Cestus, which lets it use strikes that look like claws and are made of strong flames to reach farther. The Striker is great because it has fast attacks and can knock down and stun enemies to stop them from moving. The Striker can also do a lot of damage and works best when he or she is right in the middle of a group of enemies.

Archer

The Archer class is a master of long-range combat. They use a crossbow on their arm that can shoot a string of damaging bullets at enemies from far away. The Archer can move quickly around the battlefield and fire a lot of bolts at once, which can do a lot of damage to enemies who aren’t ready for it and keep him on the move.

With the Archer’s awakening, they can use the greatbow, which is a combination weapon that shoots hard light projectiles and can call phantom bolts to do more damage. The Archer is great because he can move quickly and has a range that seems to go on forever. This keeps him safe while he keeps attacking enemies.

Nova

When it comes to doing hard things in Black Desert, the Nova is a very strong class. The Nova’s basic form comes with a tower shield and a mace. When two Novas work together, they can be very aggressive but still have a lot of ways to defend themselves. The Nova also uses the ice element in combination with her weapon combos, which can knock down foes and hit a large area with AOE attacks.

Lastly, when the Nova awakens, it totally changes the class’s abilities. Instead of a sword, the Nova can now use a rapier-like weapon and summon spectral blades to stab enemies. The Nova is a great choice for both PVE gameplay and new players in Black Desert because it can be used in a lot of different ways.

Sage

The Sage is a mage, like the Wizard, and is very good at fighting from a distance. The Sage, unlike the Wizard, uses a special kind of magic that is like space or gravity. The Sage’s special magic gives him unique ways to move and control crowds. The Sage can use magic to push foes back, make a barrier to stop attacks, or even make a singularity that traps enemies and does heavy damage over time.

The Sage’s moveset is completely changed when he awakens. He gets a lightning stick and becomes a god of thunder. The Sage sends magical spears of energy down from the sky to pierce enemies and spread damage from lightning across big groups.

Lahn

The Lahn is a great class that looks like it came straight from a martial arts movie. The Lahn uses a scarf with a sharp edge as a weapon and whips around the battlefield with fast, powerful moves that hit many people at once. The Lahn is also very good at moving. She has a glide and an overhead dash that are unique to her class.

The Awakening of the Lahn gives her two crescent-shaped blades and sends her into battle with spinning attacks that cut foes to pieces. These attacks were heavily influenced by games like God of War or Eggy Car. The Lahn does a lot of damage, attacks very quickly, and has a good range, making her a very good choice for PVE content.

Wizard/Witch

The movesets of the Wizard and Witch classes are very similar, but both are great for PVE material thanks to their powerful elemental spells that hit a wide area. Spellcasters in Black Desert can use fire, ice, and earth to do a lot of damage to their enemies and knock them down at the same time.

The way the classes wake up is what makes them different. The Wizard’s awakening makes his already powerful elemental magic even stronger. The Witch, on the other hand, gets the ability to call on elementals, which, when combined with her elemental spells, makes the damage go up in an exponential way. Both the Wizard and the Witch are great for PVE material because they can change a lot of ground.

Hashashin

In Black Desert, the Hashashin is a blazing sand storm that is good at quick attacks and moving around, making it easy to get in and out of enemy groups while cutting through them. The Hashashin’s base class fights with a deadly Arabian sword and a dagger with two blades. Fans of the Prince of Persia games will like this type of fighting.

The Hashashin weaves through battle and uses both melee attacks and sand attacks to tear foes apart. Once players unlock the class’s rising, the Hashashin will switch from a saber to a two-bladed sword and use sand tornadoes and sand serpents in battle, which will greatly increase its damage.

Woosa

The Woosa is one of the newest classes in Black Desert, and it’s already on its way to becoming one of the best. The Woosa is a new take on the Sage and Maewha’s Elementalist way of fighting. The Woosa is a storm-maker who can use a combination of water, lightning, and wind to wipe out anyone in her way.

The Woosa’s main weapon is an embroidered fan, which she can use to send powerful wind shockwaves from afar or call down lightning to crush strong enemies into dust. The Woosa is also very good at moving around. She has special skills that help her get to a safe distance and back to a range that fits her abilities.

Drakania

The Drakania might be one of the best classes in Black Desert, and fans have given it a lot of praise for being so new and different. The Drakania has the grace and strength of a dragon, and she can use her Slayer broadsword to send electricity through the air. The Drakania kills enemies with vicious violence and leaves behind charred bodies.

The Drakania’s rising gives the class even more power. It also lets her become one with the dragon, which makes her wind and fire attacks even stronger. The Drakania also gets a huge ability to move that lets it glide along the surface like a blade of grass.
