Gracia is the chronicle where Seeds and Territory Wars created an entirely new tier of group content. This directly shapes class choice: some classes shine in Seed dungeons, others dominate Territory War. Here is what is worth playing on Gracia servers.
S-Tier: First Pick Classes
Archmage
Archmage received an improved Prominence in Gracia — now one of the most efficient AoE spells in the game. In Seeds it is practically irreplaceable: dense mob groups inside Seed of Annihilation or Seed of Infinity melt under its attacks. First choice among DD classes for both solo and party farming.
Grand Khavatari
On Territory War, Grand Khavatari is one of the scariest classes around. Force Buster combined with a large HP pool makes it nearly unstoppable as a frontliner. Farming is weaker than mages, but for PvP content there are few alternatives.
A-Tier: Great Classes for Most Content
| Class | Best For | Playstyle |
|---|---|---|
| Elemental Master | Seeds, AoE farm | Party DD + debuffer |
| Cardinal | Any content | Main healer |
| Duelist | PvP, Territory War | Solo killer |
| Hierophant | Party farming | Full buffer |
| Sword Muse | Mass PvP, support | Singer + DD |
| Bounty Hunter | Party farming | Economic boost |
Classes for Gracia Beginners
If you are starting fresh on a Gracia server, pick a class that forgives mistakes and does not require perfect support to function.
Hawkeye / Silver Ranger / Phantom Ranger
Archers in Gracia are the best beginner choice. They farm solo without Soul Shots (arrows are cheaper), have good range and survivability. Hawkeye with Triple Shot performs well even without ideal weapons.
Treasure Hunter
Scavenger classes perform excellently in Gracia farming. Spoiling components for Seed crafting is very profitable, and a Treasure Hunter provides stable income even without strong gear.
In Gracia the value of support grew considerably: even Arcana Lord with Cubic pets handles solo farming in early Seeds reasonably well.
Classes for Seed of Annihilation
Seed of Annihilation is the hardest dungeon in Gracia and requires specific classes to handle it.
- ▸Archmage / Elemental Master — main damage source, non-negotiable.
- ▸Cardinal — mandatory; the chaotic spawns inside SoA demand constant group healing.
- ▸Phoenix Knight — the only tank with enough survivability for SoA's third floor.
- ▸Hierophant — buffs are critical; without a full stack the party dies to SoA bosses.
- ▸Storm Screamer — Mass Silence stops casting mini-bosses cold.
What Not to Play in Gracia
- ▸Necromancer solo: pet mechanics do not scale well at top-tier Gracia spots.
- ▸Paladin without an experienced party: outclassed by Phoenix Knight in almost every scenario.
- ▸Overlord: Rally skills are excellent but the class is almost useless solo and heavily group-dependent.
