We've played the first 30 hours of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dune: Awakening over and over and over again. Two classes really stand out as the best options if you want to have a strong start in the game: the Mentat and the Bene Gesserit. Because o🍌f the way thওat the class sytem works in Dune: Awakening, you'll eventually be able to access many abilities and passives of the other classes.

We'll cover why both the Mentat and the Bene Gesserit can be considered the best starting class in the game, eventually s💮iding with one over the other.

The Mentat

The Mentat is an excellent class for solo play, mostly thanks to The Sentinel, a deployable turret you can unlock almost immediately. It covers a wide area and automatically targets enemy NPCs. It's basicall😼y like playing with a teammate at all times.

This makes clearing the first key challenges of Dune: Awakening - the early game dungeons - a walk in ༺the park. You can blitz through the Testing Stations to gain access to your first sand🥀bike very quickly with the Mentat.

The Mentat does lack some mobility, especially compared to the Bene Gesserit (more on that in a second), but you can pick up the Shigawire Claw from the Trooper trainℱer in the first out🍬post. This gives you access to the grappling hook, which alleviates some of the sluggishness of the class.

Mentat Abilities

• The Sentinel - Deployable dart turret
• Poison Capsule
• Hunter-Seeker

• Source Of Power

Mid to Late Game Mentat

As you progress, the Mentat turns into a long-range assassin in PvP, with some support utility for your allies. If you want to play a long-range character, probably with a sniper, t🐽hen the Mentat is a great choice.

The Bene Gesserit

The Bene Gesserit has one of the best starting utility abilities in the game, the Bindu Sprint. This allows you to quickly move across the Hagga Basin, and considering you start without a vehicle, this early movement boost can help you cover a lot of thꦿe early content much more quickly than the other classes.

It also allows you to potentially traverse greater distances between rock formations without getting eaten by a giant worm. So that's nice.

The biggest downside to the Bene Gesserit - and one of the reasons why we probably prefer the Mentat - is that there's a bit of a focus on melee play. The melee combat in Dune: Awakening is not great, especiꦫally not 🎐early on.

While the Bene Gesserit is great at tackling elite enemies, especially those that require you to get up close and personal to break their shields,🔯 you might find yourself struggling a bit with clearing out larger groups of enemies.

Mid To Late Game Bene Gesserit

As you progress deeper into the game, unlocking more of your character's abilities, techniques, and passives🐟, the Bene Gesserit becomes a powerful utility tool for your allies. You can CC enemy players and endgame NPCs alike.

Swordmaster And Trooper

We don't recommend picking Trooper as your starting class as you gain access to the Trooper Trainer at the first outpost, giving you access to Trooper abilities within the first couple of hours of the game🅷.

The Sꦆwordmaster has a bit more nuance, however, a▨nd if you really enjoy melee play, there's no reason not to pick up the Swordmaster as your starting class.
