Hero Reborn Eternal Pact Best Classes & Tier List Guide
Mage
The Mage class shines as the best option for free-to-play players, especially if you enjoy PvE, AoE damage, and farming progression materials efficiently.
Early Game (Tier 0):
- Ranked 3rd in raw DPS (behind Swordsman and Warrior)
- Slower to start, but manageable with smart positioning
Mid Game (Tier 1 – Around Day 7):
- Huge jump in both AoE and single-target damage
- Can reach 300M+ DPS with 60M CP
- Matches or exceeds other classes in PvE
- Still weaker in PvP compared to Warrior and Swordsman
Late Game (Tier 2 – Day 27+):
- Unlocks Fire Burn Explosion build, drastically boosting damage
- Outperforms Swordsman in PvE by ~10%
- Still slightly behind in PvP due to lower survivability
Swordsman Class
Perfect for players who love fast-paced gameplay and the thrill of crit-bursting enemies into oblivion.
Early Game (Tier 0):
- Highest single-target DPS in the game
- Top burst damage among all classes
- A favorite for early bossing and dungeon runs
Mid Game (Tier 1):
- Surprisingly, new skills do NOT increase damage
- Most players stick with Tier 0 skills for better performance
- Outshines Mage in PvP thanks to better control and burst
Late Game (Tier 2 – Master Class):
- Huge spike in damage; almost 2x Tier 0 output
- Slightly behind Mage in PvE
- Still ahead of Mage in PvP by a slim margin
Warrior Class
Warrior is the most balanced class, mixing good DPS with tankiness. It’s excellent in PvP and for players who want a durable frontline presence.
Early Game (Tier 0):
- Balanced AoE and single-target damage
- Doesn’t excel in any one area
Mid Game (Tier 1):
- Massive leap in damage
- Highest burst damage potential
- Dominates PvP, becoming the top dueling class
- Weak AoE farming, which slows PvE dungeon clears
Late Game (Tier 2):
- Powerful support/tank with strong team synergy
- PvE progress may bottleneck without investment
- Still a top-tier pick for PvP dominance

Which Class Should You Choose?
If you’re unsure, start with Mage. It’s the most forgiving for new players and shines in PvE, farming, and auto-play content. You can always switch classes later through in-game systems once you understand your preferred playstyle better.
Tier List
| Tier | Class | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| S | Mage (PvE), Warrior (PvP) | Mage for AoE and farming, Warrior for duels |
| A | Swordsman | Strong burst, great PvP utility |
| B | Warrior (PvE) | Struggles with AoE farming |
| C | – | – |
Every class in Hero Reborn has its moment to shine. Your choice ultimately comes down to whether you prioritize farming, boss fights, or PvP duels.
