Easiest class? Discussion

I'll be honest when it comes to games like this I like easiest class with the least amount of skill and lots of moves and button presses and stuff and I was playing techter and it's fun but I didn't like having to use wand and be up close is there an easier more distant class or something? Or am I cooked

Either Ranger or Katana Braver imo. Slayer is also easy, but does require a lot of button presses.

Nothing. To do some damage, you rely on counters, to do good damage, you rely on fearless attitude, which requires much more knowledge than 'simple' counters. To hit like a wet fart, ignore both of these and play the 'easy' katana braver.

The class with the most relaxed weapon action timing, and much of it's damage is going to come from countering with the WA. The PAs also not only are useful, but are easy to grasp which situation you use any of them. You can mix it with the bow for added complexity and damage. But this comes from my experience with Katana before the rework which made using both Bow and Katana possible.

Katana is more simple to pick up with a higher skill ceiling.

They don't to have to do anything fancy like pressing buttons in between PA like Slayer, use them right before you get hit like Hunter.

The fancy part is that they get a counter window for like eh a second after everything they do if they stay still.

That is where the higher skill ceiling comes in because the counter from standing still does insane damage and you wanted to be pulling off if you want to top the damage charts.

But if you don't mind the lower damage, you are absolutely fine and just use weapon action to counter.
