Dreadmyst Complete Class Guide: Best Builds, Stat Allocation, and More
If you are looking for a complete breakdown of every class in Dreadmyst, this guide provides a full overview of stat allocation, ability progression, and priority benchmarks for the Ranger, Spell Paladin, Melee Paladin, Mage, and Cleric. Whether you want to optimize early game leveling, push through midgame efficiently, or prepare for endgame dungeons and PvP, this guide covers exactly what to focus on at each stage.
Before diving into class specifics, there are two universal skills that every single class must master:
Universal Skills You Must Max: Bartering & Lockpicking
Bartering (Max ASAP)
Max bartering gives:
• 15% vendor discounts
• 15% increased sales value
This is a massive long-term Dreadmyst gold advantage and affects your progression more than most players realize.
Lockpicking (Level to 100)
Dungeons require Level 100 lockpicking to open chests. Many overworld chests also scale by difficulty. Level this gradually during normal gameplay so you’re ready for endgame content.
Ranger Class Guide
The Ranger is the most mechanically expressive class in Dreadmyst, blending high single-target burst with uptime management, resource control, and positional play. This guide reflects a build optimized for both PvE and PvP, focusing heavily on early crit scaling and late-game resistances.
Early Game Priorities
Your main goals early game are consistent uptime, survivability, and mana stability:
• Health → 600
• Mana → 600
This prevents constant resource starvation and gives enough buffer for mistakes while learning encounters.
Primary Damage Stat Early: Range Critical Rating
Start funneling points into Range Crit, aiming for:
• 750 Range Critical Rating
Crit is far harder to acquire from gear than agility, so you want to invest early.
Mid Game Ranger Progression
This is where your build begins to solidify.
Core Attribute Benchmarks
• Agility → 70
• Strength → 30
• Courage → 30
Upgrade These Abilities to Rank 5
Your four core DPS abilities:
• Aimed Shot
• Flame Arrow

• Mana → 850
This ensures stable performance in dungeons and PvP.
Endgame Ranger Build
