Class Decision Tool

What POE2 class should you play first?

Choose one input: Melee, Ranged, Summoner, or Spell. The output is a practical class recommendation, not a tier list.

Choose playstyle

First-week version: one question, immediate class recommendation.

Selected input

Melee

You want to fight up close and make positioning decisions every pack.

Recommendation 1

Monk

Melee

Recommended for Melee players who want speed and active positioning.

Skip it if you want low-input gameplay or slow tank pacing.

Recommendation 2

Warrior

Melee

Recommended for Melee players who want durability and heavier hits.

Skip it if your priority is the fastest campaign speed.

Recommendation 3

Huntress

Melee

Recommended for players who want hit-and-run combat and can learn spacing.

Skip it if you want the safest low-effort beginner route.

Turn the class choice into a build route

Compare the full build hub after choosing a class, or use the beginner hub when this is your first character.

Improve gameplay stability

If every class feels delayed, fix routing before changing your starter choice. ExitLag is the first check for unstable POE2 latency.

Reduce combat delay
