Which starting class should you pick in Steelrising? The new soulslike action RPG from GreedFall developers Spiders, Steelrising quickly sets the stage of a late 1700s Paris overtaken by King Louis XVI's army of cold metallic automatons, and introduces you to - well, yourself. In the form of a shiny new automat named Aegis, who unlike the other automata in the city obeys Marie-Antoinette, the Queen of France, rather than the King.
While you cannot change much about your automat's appearance besides her face, wig, and chassis colour, there is one important decision you must make at the beginning of the game: your choice of starting class. There are four classes to choose between in Steelrising - Bodyguard, Soldier, Dancer, and Alchemist - and while they only affect starting stats and equipment, the choice is still worth weighing carefully, because each class has particular benefits and drawbacks that the others lack.
Below we'll walk you through which is the best class in Steelrising for new players. We'll also detail the starting stats and weaponry of each of the four starting classes so that you can make the most informed decision possible.
