## Summary

Ragnarok: The New World has launched on PC and mobile worldwide, giving players a choice of eight classes (jobs), with players needing to reach level 10 before selecting their first one. A Destructoid guide ranks the classes into three tiers, noting that all eight can be viable with the right build, but some are stronger or easier to master than others.

- S-tier: Gunslinger (strong burst and AOE damage, beginner-friendly), Swordsman (well-rounded attack, defence and combos, low gear dependency), Druid (hardest to learn, switches between melee, ranged and magic roles)
- A-tier: Mage (fast levelling, strong AOE clearing, but fragile), Archer (details cut off in source article)
- B-tier: described as niche classes suited only to players with a specific preference for them
