Discover the Outriders: Worldslayer tier list for classes, ranking Pyromancer, Devastator, Trickster, and Technomancer by map clear speed, boss damage, and survivability.

We will rank the classes in Outriders Worldslayer by examining three metrics: map clear speed, boss killing potential, and survivability. These three metrics are great as they help to engage with how certain classes and their best-performing builds behave. Note that all classes have class trees to increase their Firepower, defensiveness and Anomaly Power, meaning that all classes have access to a variety of playstyles. However, the legendary sets make certain class builds better, so we have to measure it from that perspective of most valuable legendary sets, mods and guns for each class’ build options. Below you’ll find a table on how we rank each of the classes for the metrics they are scored on.

As you can see, the table separates classes into different fields. These fields help to highlight the strengths and weaknesses of the meta builds relating to each of the classes. Some builds are really desirable for each of the classes for a variety of reasons. Below is an explanation of the effectiveness of each class.

Best Class in Outriders Worldslayer - The Devastator

In summary, the Devastator has a variety of Anomaly Power builds thanks to the new PAX tree, allowing its Seismic skills to inflict bleeds and the addition of skill damage generating shields. This makes an Anomaly-Power-focused Devastator build incredibly strong and incredible tanky. Furthermore, you can get mods for both Earthquake and Impale that grant up to three and two stacks before the skill goes on cooldown. Combine it with the stored damage PAX tree skill, and this build does incredible boss damage too.

Don’t forget to take extra mods that increase Anomaly Power, alongside buffing the skill’s damaging effects to get the most out of the shielding and the big damage your skills can do.

it is worth mentioning that the Devastator can have solid movement speed, too, taking Boulderdash or Gravity Leap in the build. Though these builds seem not as strong as the Seismic Commander legendary set when used with Earthquake / Impale, though, they still offer great Anomaly Power and defensive power thanks to its incredibly strong Tectonic PAX tree.

The second-best class in Outriders - The Technomancer

In our eyes, the Technomancer is the second-best class in Outriders Worldslayer. The reason why is thanks to the variety of builds available to the Technomancer. There is the turret / freeze build and the Tools of Destruction build. Both builds are very similar to each other, and rely on the Techmonger legendary armor set which empowers your turrets. For either build, you take the buffed Cryo Turrets and Blight turret mods, placing multiple turrets at the same time. Combine this with Anomaly Power mods, your skills will deal more damage, and your status effects become much stronger too. You also want weapons with Status Power as that improves your skill damage, along with enhace the statuses you apply trough weapons and skills. This is great as they work well for both single-target boss killing and improving map clear speeds, as your turrets can be used to target multiple enemies simultaneously or all focus on a boss. The builds tend to be really safe and defensive too and your turrets will heal you constantly. Overall, they are both very versatile buuiilds.

You can also go the Borealis Monarch set which increases firepower against frozen enemies. If you want to play a slightly different version of the Technomancer this is a worthy pivot. This build typically has a higher skill and damage ceiling and has some decent AOE damage with the right weapons, but it did get whacked with the nerf hammer heading into Worldlsayer. But it its still good if you’re a fan of the Borealis set / Blighted Rounds playstyle- its just doesnt have the same maximum damage potential has the Trickster’s Twisted Rounds AP build when that gets going.

Moreso, the mods for either build are similar, with ammo conservation or regenerating mods useful. This is through getting rounds back from killing enemies with toxic applied to them This is useful for the primary weapon with Blighted Rounds on it, alongside the Minigun if you so wish.

Lastly, it is worth mentioning that the turrets help the Technomancer by tanking enemies for it. If you find yourself in an awkward position, move further back and let the turrets get in the way, or maybe try to freeze enemies with the Cryo Turret for added protection. The Technomancer is a glass cannon class and needs it to freeze enemies to keep itself safe. Thankfully cryo skills work well and Cryo turret makes it an important skill for single target, map clearing and defensive capabilities. All in all, The Technomancer is a fairly well-rounded class thanks to the new legendary tier set.

The third-best class - The Heat Seeker Pyromancer

The Heat Seeker Pyromancer is the third-best class in Outriders, in our opinion. The Pyromancer is by far the best map clearing class in the game thanks to the new Heat Seeker build. The Heat Seeker set creates a new and more interesting way to map clear by spreading Thermbal Bombs. With enough Anomaly Power and the right mods, the Thermal Bombs will spread easily, and the actual explosion will help eliminate even more enemies. This build enables some incredible map clearing speed when you run
