Nexus: Nebula Echoes is a sci-fi-themed action RPG that features an immersive combat experience made richer with intuitive controls. Experience a futuristic nirvana like never before as you explore the lush surroundings in real time. One of the key aspects of the game is the wide variety of classes available for players to choose and play with. Each class is essentially a different character on its own and offers lucrative active/passive abilities. This guide will help you choose your desired class by discussing its pros and cons. Let’s begin!

All Classes in Nexus: Nebula Echoes

There are multiple classes in Nexus: Nebula Echoes to choose from. Each class boasts a different playstyle thanks to multiple unique active and passive abilities. Sadly, all the abilities of all the classes are the same, but their stats and attributes are what differentiates them. Although the game does feature a multiple character system, choosing your class is very important as once chosen, you cannot change it. Choosing a class that synergizes with your play style and is equally fun to play with is crucial. At the time of the global launch, a total of 5 classes exist. Choose your poison:

• Swordfighter

• Akimbo Gunner

• Sacred Ringster

• Umbrellist

• Arcanist

Swordfighter Class

The Swordfighter is a versatile and agile melee combatant, excelling in delivering swift and powerful strikes. They balance offense and defense with high mobility, making them effective in both solo and group play. Your main goal while playing with this class should be to get in melee range of the enemy and slash them down as soon as possible. Be careful, though, as your core defensive stats are not that strong, and you can suffer fatal damage while exchanging blows with the enemy. A robust positioning is required to play this class effectively.
