Class Strength Chart: Need Community Input!

[Tonberry]

Hello, everyone!
I am putting together a power chart for all the classes in Cabal Online, and need everyone's input on what they think is the strength and weakness of each class on a scale from 1-5 (1 being weak, 5 being strong). The metrics upon which each class will be graded on is as follows:



PVE Strength will be graded upon the class's ability to survive in PVE environment, their ability to solo, and their speed at which they can accomplish quests, dungeons, and killing mobs/bosses. (1 = Worst; 5 = The Best)
PVP Strength is dependent on the class's ability to do well in: Nation War, Mission Battle, War channel, free style PVP, and traditional PVP. (1 = Worst; 5 = The Best)
Party Utility will be based on how good this class is in groups. Are they essential in a party? Do they have good party support skills? (1 = Unnecessary; 5 = Must Have)
Equipment Cost is how expensive/difficult it is to equip this class. This includes what needs to be slotted in order to maximize specific classes. (1 = Expensive; 5 = Cheap)
Class Difficulty will be based on how hard/easy the class is to play for beginners, and how hard it is to master the class. (1 = Hardest; 5 = Easiest)
Battle Mode 1 score is how awesome you think the class's battle mode 1 is. (1 = Worst; 5 = The Best)
Battle Mode 2 score is how awesome you think the class's battle mode 2 is. (1 = Worst; 5 = The Best)
Battle Mode 3 score is how awesome you think the class's battle mode 3 is. (1 = Worst; 5 = The Best)

So for example, I would say

Bladers:
-PVE Strength: 5
-PVP Stregnth: 2
-Party Utility: 1
-Equipment Cost: 3
-Class Difficulty: 5
-Battle Mode 1: 4
-Battle Mode 2: 4
-Battle Mode 3: 3

And you would do this for every class! You can reply with explanation on why you gave the class whatever score you gave them and I will include the most popular and most repeated ones on the chart.

After a month or so, I will average all the scores and publish the charts for everyone to view.

Please don't flame anyone for their scoring!

PVE str: good tanking ability, cant survive long enough in bloody, requires healing, low DPS
PVP str: outside of war(in stand pvp its prorably the third best FS and Str built FB are superior. Mission battle its basically garbage, War its decent in terms of pvp
Party Utility: has the best party synergies IMO, AOS, Fury all the good stuff, best for support
Equipment Cost: No rate buff, think about that...... have to buy slot extenders for the GS, extreming requires the use of more cores
Class difficult: after the current patches id say it would become harder for the WA that are ungeared to survive in pvp or pve situations.
BM1: its basically a def atk BM, nothing special other than 100 hp LOL.
BM2: Prolly our best BM, has decent vamp, quick DPS, plus the knockdown, still not as ez to use as WI, FA bm2, not as strong as BL bm2.
BM3: SLOW, WEAK COMPARED TO OTHER CLASS, nuff said about that

-Class Difficulty: 2
-Battle Mode 1: 2
-Battle Mode 2: 4
-Battle Mode 3: 3

PvE: I guess we have decent dps...survivability is an issue even with regen+spirit shield
PvP: Nation War - We have the best mobility so we can easily scout.
Mission Battle - Decent, our mobility becomes useless if there's a person on a bike circling around the Ice Lord.
Freestyle/War Channel - Probably the best, given that you can utilize blink well, in and out of combo.
Traditional PvP - We have low defense and damage reduction so it's a lost cause unless we have tons of resist rate and resist damage.
Party Utility: Wizards used to be a necessity in party dungeons, but ever since Arionell mercenary was released...not so much.
Equipment Cost: No rate buff, need at least 3 Slot Extenders for helm and 2 orbs.
Class Difficulty: Hard to master if you have bad latency and cannot utilize blink in combo, or even dash in combo.
Battle Mode 1: I only use it in nation war and it's only for hitting harder and being able to combo so...nothing special.
Battle Mode 2: One of the best BM2s next to bladers and their aof (if they can 1 claw retarget that is). However, BM2 can get annoying at times when you get knockedback frequently
Battle Mode 3: Pretty good for constant aoeing, can easily hit and run.
