The nine Classes of Entrenched include Rifleman, Skirmisher, Medic, Support, Assault, Engineer, Recon, Flamer, and Officer. Regardless of the role you choose, you will have access to a primary weapon and an assortment of tools. Some of these are designed to be beginner-friendly, while others require some deliberation to use.

Knowing which Class suits you the best largely varies based on personal preferences. There is no clear-cut winner among the nine, as your experience with them in skirmishes will define how effective they feel. Some may prefer the head-on approach of Flamers and Skirmishers, while others may prefer to hang back and support downed allies.

While the make of the gear you receive may vary with the country, the type doesn’t. So, the overall effectiveness of the Class is not affected by the assigned country.

The table above illustrates the strengths and weaknesses of the nine Classes succinctly. Of these player archetypes, there are a few that are better for beginners and require little effort to be effective. More specifically, beginners may want to pick Rifleman and Recon as their initial mains.

Both Recon and Rifleman are highly effective at medium and long-range gunfights, with a quick and fuss-free experience with their primary weapons. They do high damage per shot, which makes them quite easy to use as players need not worry about variables like bullet spray and range. Rifleman can handle melee and short-range skirmishes quite well, as they are equipped with grenades and bayonet rifles for limited area control.

Aside from these two, early-game players can opt for the Skirmishers, the versatile Class. Though their HP is low, they can handle action at any range, be it melee or long-range. Their smoke grenades can create a smoke screen that obscures enemy vision, allowing them to flank the opponents and wipe them out with relative ease.
