Class FAQ
How to choose a Mistfall Hunter class before launch
What is the safest solo class?
Before launch, prioritize information and escape value over raw damage. Shadowstrix and Seer-style roles deserve close attention for solo consistency.
What should teams draft first?
Teams should cover scouting, stabilization, pressure, and exit safety before stacking finishers or boss damage.
Are these final tier lists?
No. Exact skills, cooldowns, counters, and weapon pairings must be confirmed after launch or official class updates.
Update Rules
What changes after launch data arrives
Skills
Add exact ability names, cooldowns, resource costs, and counterplay after official or live data confirms them.
Solo ranking
Rank by extraction consistency first, then duel potential, then boss value.
Team ranking
Rank by coverage: scout, stabilizer, initiator, finisher, and exit protection.
