Daggerheart Classes
Daggerheart Classes: Your Heroic Path
In Daggerheart, your class defines your character's role in the world and shapes how they approach challenges. Whether you're a stalwart protector, a cunning infiltrator, or a master of arcane secrets, each class brings a unique flavor to the story. Below is an overview of the available classes to help you find the one that speaks to your vision of heroism.
The Charismatic Performer
Bard
- Grace
- Codex
Need a hype squad of one? Enter the Daggerheart Bard class, equal parts rock star, diplomat, and morale-boosting meme machine. Bards bend the vibe of every scene - turning tavern boos into roaring applause or battlefield screams into heroic chants. Their words heal wounds, their riffs drop boss difficulty, and their swagger unlocks doors money can’t buy. Play a Bard if you’re here for spotlight banter, social puzzles, and the power of pure panache.
Playstyle Tips
Kick off with an inspiring riff, hand out buffs like encores, and turn every crisis into an encore performance.
Saving the Festival
The crowd’s seconds from panic. You climb the fountain, strike a chord, and ride the cheer as tempers cool and doors open for your friends.

The Keeper of Nature’s Balance
Druid
- Sage
- Arcana
Shape-shift into a bear, summon thorny roots, or chat with ancient oaks - the Daggerheart Druid class makes the wilderness a main character. Druids stand at the crossroads of healing rainstorms and raging tempests, balancing serenity with raw elemental fury. Ideal for storytellers who love eco-fantasy themes, guardian spirits, and the thrill of turning into a wolf mid-conversation because - well - wolves are cool.
Playstyle Tips
Flow with the environment: heal allies under starlight, then morph into a clawed nightmare when diplomacy fails.
Communing with the Ancient Oak
Under a cold moon, you ask the forest what it needs. It answers. The blight breaks.

The Shield of the Party
Guardian
- Valor
- Blade
The Daggerheart Guardian class is your classic fantasy tank - but cooler. Think iron-clad heroism, doorway-plugging bravery, and cinematic last-stand vibes. Guardians thrive when monsters charge, crowds panic, and someone has to shout “Behind me!” If you love Captain-America shield bashes, Spartan phalanxes, or knightly oaths, this is the class that turns raw courage into group survival. Perfect for new players who want a simple goal - keep friends alive - and veterans who enjoy dramatic frontline set-pieces every session.
Playstyle Tips
Plant your feet, draw aggro, and let wizards and rogues work their magic behind your wall of steel.
Defending the Courtyard
The gate buckles. You plant your shield, call the shots, and soak the opening barrage so your friends can regroup and push back.

The Wilderness Guide
Ranger
- Bone
- Sage
Trackers, archers, and beast-besties unite! The Daggerheart Ranger class owns every open-world scene: snow-covered passes, tangled jungles, haunted moors. Whether you’re chatting with an owl companion or dropping arrows from a hidden perch, a Ranger turns raw nature lore into tactical advantage. Perfect for players who crave survival themes, long-range precision, and the thrill of outsmarting prey before it ever smells danger on the wind.
Playstyle Tips
Mark your quarry, control the terrain, and let your animal ally harry foes while you line up the finishing shot.
Tracking a Dire Wolf
You find the prints others missed, set the ambush on your terms, and end the threat before it reaches the village again.

The Shadowy Operative
Rogue
- Midnight
- Grace
Love heists, dramatic rooftop getaways, and witty one-liners? The Daggerheart Rogue class turns stealth gameplay into an artform. Slip past guards, pocket glittering relics, and vanish before anyone clocks the missing jewels. With parkour agility and cloak-and-dagger flair, Rogues excel at solving problems the loud people can’t - whether that’s disabling a trap, gathering black-market gossip, or dropping a boss in one precise strike. Ideal for players who crave freedom, finesse, and a dash of chaotic good mischief.
Playstyle Tips
Stay Cloaked, strike where it hurts, then disappear into the shadows before the alarm bell rings.
Silent Heist
Moonlight. A locked window. One breath, one click, and you’re inside. Guards pass. You’re already gone - with the prize - and no one quite knows how.

The Divine Protector
Seraph
- Splendor
- Valor
Blazing wings, radiant smites, and halo-lit hero poses - the Daggerheart Seraph class channels holy power with unapologetic flair. Seraphs protect the weak, cleanse corruption, and act as walking beacons of hope. Think mythic paladin meets literal guardian angel. If you relish righteous speeches, miracle-level healing, and the option to blind demons with pure sunlight, a Seraph will make every scene feel like the climax of a sacred epic.
Playstyle Tips
Bank divine energy, shield allies in a holy glow, then unleash radiant judgement when evil rears its ugly head.
Miraculous Intervention
A family is cornered by something foul. You step between. Radiance answers, and the thing recoils.

The Innate Spellcaster
Sorcerer
- Arcana
- Midnight
Chaos in living form - the Daggerheart Sorcerer class was born to break the rules. Power spills from bloodlines, cosmic bargains, or raw destiny, and every spell feels like rolling thematic dice on a storm-cloud. Fire? Lightning? Shadow tentacles? Yes. All at once. Sorcerers play to big cinematic moments: city-square lightning storms, reality-bending portals, and everyone at the table wide-eyed as you say, “I cast it again.”
Playstyle Tips
Ride momentum: unleash volatile spells early, surf the adrenaline rush, and retreat before backlash bites.
Unleashing a Storm
Cornered by raiders, you let the current take you. Lightning answers. The fight ends fast.

The Battle-Ready Combatant
Warrior
- Blade
- Bone
Sometimes a story needs someone to pick up a sword and get it done. The Daggerheart Warrior class is tactical steel incarnate - reliable damage, fearless charges, and that satisfying “clang” when blade meets shield. From disciplined soldiers to wandering sellswords, Warriors translate grit into victory without flashy spell-effects. If you want to front-flip off a balcony, crash into a goblin phalanx, and still have stamina left for witty repartee, this is your lane.
Playstyle Tips
Seize high-ground, push the pace, and punish anything that tries to sprint past you toward the squishies.
Holding the Bridge
Rain hammers down and the dead keep coming. You hold anyway. The village wakes to quiet.

The Arcane Scholar
Wizard
- Codex
- Splendor
Books, quills, and reality-warping power: the Daggerheart Wizard class makes homework look heroic. Wielders of ancient codices, Wizards rewrite the rules of space, time, and common sense - often before breakfast. If you enjoy solving encounters with creativity (“What if I just remove gravity?”) or quoting obscure runes mid-battle, this class slots perfectly into your tower-of-knowledge fantasies. Bring scrolls, bring spectacles, and prepare to blow everyone’s mind - sometimes literally.
Playstyle Tips
Control the field with clever incantations, then unleash a prepared spell when the narrative spotlight hits.
