Beginner Class and Weapon Swapping
Mercenary is a common beginner recommendation, but players do not agree on one best class. Withered Knight Greatsword is repeatedly described as punishing when an attack misses.
There is no summoner class. Seer is the closest current fit for ranged damage, healing, totems, and shields.
Weapon swapping
Section titled “Weapon swapping”Build around one weapon path first, then swap in combat for the other weapon’s cooldowns or utility. Skill trees and gems often reward specialization, while a second weapon adds another action set.
Caster specializations can restrict which weapon carries active skills. Check the class skill table before planning a swap.
Compare the Classes directory, then open a class record for the complete skill and talent tables.
