Fate/Grand Order is a Gacha Game that allows you to summon many powerful Servants to aid you in your endeavors to cleanse the chronic anomalies known as the Singularities and the Lostbelts, in order to restore humanity. Those Servants are always part of a Class which defines their combat prowess, agility and overall attributes.
You will notice that the same person can sometimes manifest in many different classes, so don’t be alarmed if you see someone in this list twice! We will visit each Class separately, take a look at their Skills, portray their usual playstyle and explain their interactions with each other Class.
Base Damage : 1.0x
Due to our beloved King Arthur, the Saber class is likely the most recognizable class in the Fate franchise. Lore-wise, Saber is thought to be the most powerful of the basic classes, considering they have reached the final battle in the all of the previous Holy Grail Wars. Of course, in Grand Order, the Saber class is mostly represented through damage-oriented servants. Sabers usually boast high damage AOE Noble Phantasms (most well known one is Artoria’s Excalibur), however they may also possess single target oriented Noble Phantasms like Okita’s Mumyou Sandanzuki.

Although most Archer Class servants are not actually archers in the literal sense, Archers are brilliant in long range combat and are excellent scouts. All Archers possess the skill “Independent Action”, which allows them to act without a magic supply from their master for a limited amount of time. In Grand Order, the Archer class hosts many attack oriented servants, with powerful Noble Phantasms (like Gilgamesh’s Enuma Eilish), but they could also possess a Noble Phantasm that induces buffs like Super Orion’s Artemis Agnos.

The last of the Knight classes, Lancers have incredible agility and are excellent at keeping their opponents at bay using their long range melee weapons.

The first of the Cavalry classes, the Rider class , although lacking in attributes when compared to the Knight classes, is unique in the sense that it can utilize powerful mythical mounts in order to defeat their enemies. These mounts usually imbue them with high rank Noble Phantasms and abilities. In Grand Order, Riders are once again mostly attack oriented servants, however there are some exceptions, like Reines, which show that Riders can also sometimes be valuable in supporting.

However, Servants that are included in the Caster Class are highly adept Magi who possess the ability to use powerful magic in order to manipulate the circumstances revolve around a battlefield, potentially turning their battle in their favor. In Grand Order, Casters are arguably the most important class to include in your lineup, considering that the support they can provide you is game-changing. Many kinds of support oriented Servants exist for all kinds of different card based lineups. For example, Merlin is great for supporting a buster team comp. It is also worth to note the fact that while there are damage oriented casters like Nero, their usefulness is limited in comparison to their support co-Casters.

Being the class of precision, Assassins excel killing their opponents quickly and silently. Their brilliant agility makes them a menace to most masters, considering they could be assassinated at a moment’s notice if they are not extremely careful. Besides that however, assassins are not usually suited for one-on-one combat, due to their low attributes. In Grand Order, Assassins are great at generating Critical Stars, in no small part because of their class skill and the fact that they hold many Quick cards that cause their attacks to have many hits. They also most of of time have an Evade/Invincible skill, helping them survive despite their low health.

The last of the Cavalry classes, Berserkers are servants that have gone insane in their lives during battle and because of this, even though it is nearly impossible for a master to coordinate with them, they make up for it with their augmented attributes and pure brute strength. In Grand Order, Berserkers are the epitome of a “Glass Cannon” , due to the fact that they inherently have the ability to deal more damage to almost any other class. However, this comes with a price, since Berserkers also receive a lot more damage when attacked by almost any other class. Like Assassins, Berserkers usually boast some skills to improve their survivability, like Guts.
