DNF Mobile is well into its new season, which began last November, and the new Male Mage character is now available. The current endgame is 파광의 아스마르 Hard Mode, added last October, with clears starting to pick up in December.

​

With that in mind, here’s a look at the classes I recommend most in DNF Mobile, presented in an image-board format.

​

I’m not an expert on every class, but these impressions come from leveling all of them to the cap.

Current Meta Picks

Spectre, Female Mechanic, Male Spitfire, Wildbane, Female Crusader, Male Crusader, Enchantress

These are the standout classes in the current meta.

​

With enough practice, they offer a higher performance ceiling than other classes with comparable gear.

Of these, my top recommendations for beginners are Female Mechanic, Female Crusader, and Male Crusader.

Spectre and Male Spitfire aren’t particularly difficult to play either, so they’re worth trying if you have average mechanical skills.

Wildbane is tricky to gear for attack speed and struggles to fit her damage into a short window. She also takes considerable practice, since you need to know when to trade hits. Keep in mind that a rework is planned for this year, which could significantly change how her skills work.

Since Crusaders and Enchantress are synergy (support) characters, consider them as alts rather than mains. Parties also tend to prefer Crusaders over Enchantress, and Female Crusader over Male Crusader.

Easy Dungeon Clearing

Male Launcher, Vagabond, Dark Templar, Elementalist, Glacial Master, Female Mechanic

These are great classes for switching your brain off, thanks to simple, intuitive controls and wide attack coverage.

Keep in mind that Elementalist​ uses charged skills, and that playstyle won’t appeal to everyone.

Vagabond is prone to dying, while Dark Templar is a synergy character with a low performance ceiling. I don’t recommend either if you have ambitious goals, such as clearing 파광의 아스마르 Hard Mode.

​

For performance, Female Mechanic is once again my top recommendation.

The recently released Glacial Master has notably high skill damage multipliers and even an immortality passive (revival), making him worth recommending. We’ll need a little more time to judge his performance in practice.

As Long as It’s Fun

Swift Master, Female Striker, Berserker, Rogue, Male Monk, Weapon Master

These are classes that deliver satisfying hits and engaging controls.

Among these, my top recommendations for beginners are Swift Master and Berserker.

​

The recently added Swift Master trails Glacial Master in performance, but many players enjoy unleashing skill after skill with his almost unlimited recovery cancels.

Berserker shows up fairly often in the 파광의 아스마르 Hard Mode rankings, perhaps thanks to his large player base and a one-time revival passive like Glacial Master’s. His straightforward skill design may make him less mechanically engaging, but his heavy slams and satisfyingly raspy shouts have plenty of appeal.

​

The other classes are fun, but they have to fight at point-blank range, making 파광의 아스마르 Hard Mode a real balancing act.

Warning: Not for Everyone

Witch, Enchantress, Kunoichi, Brawler, Grappler, Impaler, Male Mechanic

These are particularly divisive classes because of their unusual controls or skill mechanics.

​

You need to pay close attention to skill timing and range to get good performance out of them, so they’re hard to play with your brain switched off.

​

Still, once you get proficient, their performance ceilings are reasonably good. There’s also the satisfaction of doing this well with a class other players struggle with or rarely play.

That said, Witch feels like she’s fighting with toys, with very little sense of impact—it’s more like watching a cute show. As a synergy character with long channeling times, she has almost no room for high-end performance. I only recommend her to players who value cuteness above everything else.

Wrapping Up

That wraps up this image-board guide to recommended classes in DNF Mobile.

​

Every character has their own strengths, weaknesses, and appeal, and playing them yourself may leave you with a different impression from what others say. Feel free to start leveling whichever character catches your eye and decide as you go.
