Lost Ark PvP Classes Tier List – The Best Characters for PvP

After expanding into Luterra Castle and reaching level 20, players will unlock access to the Proving Grounds, the sole location in the game providing player-versus-player content. 

Here, players can create instanced duels against other players, ranging in size from one-versus-one to three-versus-three.

With no prior opportunities to fight against other players, newcomers are apt to feel lost when it comes to where their class’s strengths lie within the PvP meta. Be advised, the kits of some classes better suit the fast-paced action of the Proving Grounds better than others.

The Gunslinger presents an agile fighter with quick attacks, whose abilities and combat options can be played effectively in a variety of situations.

While Gunslinger is the only subclass choice for female Gunners, that’s not for a lack of variety — the class’s defining trait is that it can switch fluidly between firing pistols, shotguns, and rifles in the heat of combat, making use of each weapon type as necessary.

Pistols are the Gunslinger’s most reliable damage-dealing option at close range, and provide the distance-closing movement skills necessary to engage in close range fights and quickly clean up kills.

Shotguns provide mid-range utility by causing opponents within their blast to stumble, potentially canceling incoming attacks if timed to interrupt the opponent’s attack animation.

Rifles grant the Gunslinger a long-range damage option, capable of picking targets out from crowds and across arenas while keeping distance from close-range attackers. Most importantly, if a Gunslinger starts a duel at distance looking to open with a rifle shot, they can potentially stay off of their opponent’s screen for long
