Dark Souls 3can be a rather intimidating game to get into. The trilogy's final installment has some of the toughest foes the franchise has seen, meaning that new players will struggle greatly during the opening hours. For many, this is why choosing a good starting class is important. Classes in Dark Souls 3 are different from most RPGs in that they don't lock players into a playstyle. Instead, they give players different equipment to start with alongside different starting stats.
