Just like every Souls game before, Elden Ring offers a variety of classes to choose from right at the beginning of your game. In addition to the gender selection, the robust character creator allows you to fine-tune features such as your hairstyle, face, facial hair, and even body type. However, all these features won't matter when you're running around wearing ridiculous-looking armor (hey, if it protects, the looks don't matter!).

You can spend hours creating your character, but in the end, it's the character class that matters the most. It is essential to know which character class is best suited for you. In this guide, we've listed everything you need to know about each class that may help you select your class.

Attributes

Before we get into the classes, it is best to understand what each stat refers to. It can be a bit daunting for newer players to understand what the 'Faith' stat or the 'Arcane' stats stand for. There are eight attributes, and each of these eight attributes governs your secondary stats, including HP, FP, Equipment Load, Discovery, Poise, and Stamina.
