- Hi again! It's been a while since my last upload and I apologize. As you can imagine, having a puppy and a girlfriend can often times be a full-time job in itself lol. But regardless, I hope you enjoy this video. It's a little different than my last ones, and some would probably call it lower effort, but I still put in a ton of time polishing it up and making it in-depth. I hope you enjoy.

Saxtons locking useless? Did you know that it's basically a mimic counter spell?
I didn't know that! I'm not sure why but that's something I NEVER EVEN THOUGHT OF! shit... time to remake the entire video...
Yeah man, it's ridicolus, you close his mouth and at the same time it deals damage, it's something amazing
I learned this from a D&D game, figured I would give it a try, and it totally worked in Barony. One of the best feelings I have had in this game.
@@roogeydoogz It locks their mouth and applies a DoT, allowing you to walk up and melee them to death! It's crazy powerful.
Learned that reading the achievements
Never seen that trick with transparent tierlist over the subject of discuss footage in other tier lists type videos. U can see very nice and clean both the discuss subject and have a constant access to the tierlist without a need to going back to see it. Now thats a Quality of life thing
Thank you! I hesitated a lot with the transparency, but I'm happy with how it turned out! I didn't know if it would be sensory overload or nice background footage lol, but thank you for the kind words! :)
Healer actually becomes a very good tank late-game thanks to CON scaling. If you focus on leveling Blocking and Polearms in the early game (easy since you can heal yourself out of any problems), it can coast through the entire game.
Also gets a jump start on Alchemy if you choose to go that route once you hit Hamlet
"a class designed for masochists and nerds"... yeah, you got me.
what class was that i missed it
@@zerozeridian9200 brewer. At first I thought about Joker TBH
@@Colorblind77 ahh im new to the game im trying to figure things out i like vampire munk/accursedp
@@zerozeridian9200 I play vampire ninja cause sinergy of "backstab drops blood 100%".
accursed vampire is hunger games at 1000%
@@Colorblind77 its pretty fun playing as those classes i sometimes strougle though against basic enemies i can usually get the helmet from dwarven mines
This is so HEAT. Thankyou for the tierlist. Also could not agree on Conjurer more. Shit is CRAZY busted. if the Zap brigade spawns at any point with conjurer, you can max out ur leadership SO FAST.
Completely agree! I love the Conjurer but man, it should really have it's own tier because of how strong it is. Tons of fun though! :)
Thank you for producing such quality and entertaining Barony content, too little out there. Keep up the awesome work!
I really appreciate that! I put in a lot of time to learn how to introduce the game to newer players and keep the quality to a high standard! I'm so happy you're enjoying my content! :)
I never realized the hunters boomerang couldn't degrad, i always die with the class because i suck at keeping distance.
With the merchant I love to run them in multiplayer because I can sell equipment my friends don't need and by stuff for them even as a monster race, it makes ships possible to actually go to with out dying.
I appreciate the tier list. I always stick to the wizard class because I absolutely love magic in RPGs. I may have died a lot, but I still had incredible fun.
"and the 6 people that play this class"
😂
simply incredible. You summarized it in a simple and practical way. Thanks for the tutorial and tips. Could you please make a tierlist of races or better combinations of races and classes?
I would love to! That's going to be my next video, keep an eye out for it! :)
With Mesmer, it’s more of a race to max out your stats, once you get dominate you can start charming everything on the floor and just clear floors
My last barb run was like... 3 hitting Baron Herx.... literal 3 hits.
I got barony recently, and I think goblin warrior is my favorite so far. Once I find enough armor, I just sit in front of a slime for blocking levels. By the time I'm in the swamp, Minotaurs already deal 0 damage to me. My best run I have a tinkering kit, a 17 dmg polearm, 2 feathers, 11 spellbooks, and half of the skills maxed. Biggest problem is inventory being full of spellbooks.
Oh and there's a bug with starvation where if you have the sprig that decreases hunger equipped with no other hunger related items on, you only take damage maybe once every 30s while starving, which is much slower than natural regen. I'm talking slower than accursed skeleton damage ticks.
Wonderful video btw. I think I'll try arcanist next.
Warrior Goblin is a super fun combo, I totally agree! Also, what you mentioned about the spellbooks is literally the only thing that prevents me from playing the Goblin race more than I should. I personally enjoy casting spells when I need to, and not having the ability to learn spells is something I don't like.
I DO love strong any melee class is with the Goblin race though! :)
Great video! I love the tier list, and I agree with most of it.
About the Accursed, I thought that being a human allows you to eat food besides drinking blood vials, which helps a lot with the hunger management (or at least I remember doing that on a previous version, I don't know if the devs changed it).
I love your content
That's what I thought too! It's only until I read the debuff you spawn with- the vampiric curse or whatever. Something I forgot the mention in the video is that when you get to the Ruins stage and enter the Library (secret area), you can actually lift the curse by reading one of the spell books near the end of the Library, so you'll never have to worry about drinking blood again!
But I really appreciate the kind words, I'm so happy you're enjoying my content! :D
@@roogeydoogz but have you tried eating food despite that warning? 👀.
The thing with the Vampire race is that you can polymorph into human and eat normal food that way.
Yeah, I forgot about that room too!
For anybody else reading this comment, keep in mind that it only spawns the spellbook if you have an Accursed member in the party, otherwise the chest has random items. Also, with the spell learned, you can toggle on/off the "Vampiric Aura" which is an INT stat buff, basically
I'd love to see separate ratings for solo play and for group play, although that video would be twice as long (: I think some classes really shine in one situation but not the other.
Some thoughts on some of the placements:
-Accursed is a tricky one to place in a group unless everyone's on board with you taking the last hit with a flanking strike to guarantee blood vials. You also need your teammates to keep up with the rate of play since you're so much hungrier.
-Brewer is S-tier paired with anyone that starts with higher trading skill so you get access to more potions through the shopkeepers' extra slots sooner. Potions are easily the fastest way to kill bosses as long as you have the important recipes memorized and don't take all day brewing.
- All of the spellcasters who start with books should probably bump up a tier in a group setting because their books can be used by at least two party members. The healer's spellbooks both start brand new, so in a group everyone gets to learn self-healing.
-Conjurer is a terrible experience in a group setting. The skeleton walks way too slowly to keep up with the group and needs to get the last hit on enemies to improve the your leadership skill. It's still worth keeping them out for XP but they are better-paired with a class that starts with a damage spellbook to play a somewhat conventional caster.
-I think you're sleeping on the joker's ring of levitation+ranged weapon from level 1. C-tier is harsh for an easy start since there are so many common tiles in the mines with gaps.
-D-tier for mesmer is too harsh. 25% INT growth, 60/40 magic/casting, and a spellbook of cold to start with for a damage spell. Even if you completely ignore their charming ability, mesmer is a fully competent spellcaster with some fun leadership bonuses.
-Wanderer needs another tier up for the ring of warning. Having a guaranteed ring of warning for the gnomish mines lets you power through it really quickly, setting you up for the rest of your run.
Good list, all in all! I totally agree on the conjurer, that class is BUSTED. Glad to see more barony content!
Couldn't agree more!! It's a fun class, definitely recommend it all types of players, but it's only because it's SO EASY TO PLAY! lol
Pretty good tierlist. I would have had Shaman under OP tier and monk a bit higher up in the AI tier personally but it's not my list so meh. I'd say conjurer falls off a bit late game while mechanist excels. The ability to just insta-kill (traps) tanky units and recover a lot of the resources back is just ridiculous. Late game conjurer I have had moments where my skeletons fell off if I wasn't super focused on them getting tons of XP. Mechanist I feel like never really has that happen. That being said well said for all the other classes! I will say though the merchant's Monocle means that newer players can take things very slowly and play as something like a Skeleton without worrying about starvation and not lose out on traders which is pretty great too.
You are a legend, great content! Could you make a spell tierlist, please?
I would love to! That's such a fun idea :)
Skeleton Cleric solo was a go to for a while. Glad to see it was actually viable and I just sucked lol.
great list. i agree with a lot of things. but i would put healer in A tier and Shaman in OP tier myself
I bought the game 2 weeks ago. My favorite class for now is the Wonderer, in the early game if u are capable of abuse it about his ability to gear up in the gnomes mines u are set to try to go to the underworld to get the legendary bow. I have made a run of 17 hours with the Minotaur disabled to understand everything about this game. In this playing truogh i have beat for the first time the Minotaur in the maze (SO FUNNY AND TENSION) and than I beat Baphomet (I was confused why i didn't found out the Baron, than I rode the wiki and learnt that I challenged the hell like an idiot). And End the game with a 100 level Wanderer ( all the Preparation was for almost nothing because than I realized i was TOO set for the final boses that i made TOO MUCH STUFF for nothing, I killed them so easily. I had 30 max healing potion and 5 ressuration amulets, and also all the god armour (so FUNNY).
Thanks to your tear list I will choose one of the top tier list classes, I think I will take the Arcanist or the Mage, thank you man for the nice video.
P. S i also watched all your tutorial about the levels to be prepared in the beginning. Awesome videos, I hope u will make the next videos about the levels 15-20, 20-25 and more; good videos and well explained.
I totally agree with what you said towards the end of your comment about being WAY too prepared for the bosses lol. I'm sure the devs will add more content for the later stages of Barony, but I tend to find myself struggling against the Cockatrice enemies more than the final boss. It's a weird situation to be in because you find yourself like... leveling up and finding strong gear to fight an enemy that's somehow more dangerous than the boss, so idk, sometimes the boss is underwhelming. After completing the game, I sometimes say to myself "...wow, well... maybe I'll play another class so I have more of a challenge." lol
Also, I really appreciate you for taking the time to write all of that! I love reading everyone's comments, and I'm also really happy to hear you're enjoying my content!!! :D

Barony All Races Tier List Next? 😏
Next video is dedicated to you, homie. Races tier list... coming right up!
good video and really clean narration ! thanks for helping me not suck at Barony
That's the goal with these videos! They're super fun to make, but at the end of the day I just wanna help out anyone who's struggling to get into Barony! :D
just my personal opinion but barbarian having some specialty in alchemy makes sense, barbarians tend to be based off vikings which were known to use mushrooms to put themselves in a trance-like state, plus the sterotypical shaman using herbal remedies etc. Either way going goatman mixed with barbarian is fun just for roleplay reasons, defo not a game changing combo but being a drunken goat swinging an axe around is fun
Sexton is actually pretty good as a vampire cause you have decent casting and a good damage option with lots of utility wth sleep and open
This video is handy for all the information it contains, but also for all the contrasting/disagreeing opinions in the comments lol
mesmer is OK, it is not D(I would put it on C)...Joker is D. it starts with a slingshot some pies it sucks in stats. Mesmer have strong spell damage, and summon it is not the best but definetly not the worst.
About Healer, Healer is bad at first however he becomes a very good class after some levels, because of the high CON /block and spells I would put it on B or A, however it is not beginner friendly. Barbarian is B also, it is an Ok class.
great content, thanks for sorting everything out
We need guides for The Ruins and beyond! Get back to work! xD
OH SHIT YOU'RE RIGHT GOING NOW
@@roogeydoogz The first run that made it to The Swamp, I made it all the way to The Caves, and I was so distraught to find you don't have anything beyond The Sand Labyrinth. I am going through super slow like you suggested, as all of these biomes are new to me. Playing the Cleric and transitioning into casting. Level 43! Current seed has Funny Bones AND King Arthur.
shame some of these classes are dlc locked. I beat the game not long ago with rouge leaning into working as a ranger but if i had a stronger base for ranged gameplay it probably wouldn't have been the rough early game slog it was, still having the lockpicks and tinkering to get a ton of free arrows on the swamp levels was a bonus. I'd love to give the shaman or brewer a try, i love the idea of becoming an alchemist capable of bottling lightning and throwing it at fools.
Best Barony TH-camr
Monk and Warrior should be in S, extremely strong early game, extremely strong late game. Monk also solves hunger, solves the need for weapons, and has the highest con investment of any class upon level up
Great video! Thank you for posting the guide! I love your content!
I really appreciate it, thanks so much!! :)
@@roogeydoogz of course man keep up the good work
Do you think you will ever continue with the comprehensive breakdown videos of the stages?
I would love to! They take a very long time to make, but I plan on continuing the series until all stages are covered- I just need to find the time to start again! :)
Oh wow that’s awesome. I understand that they can take a good while to make. They cover a pretty hefty amount of information and are seemingly the only videos of their kind to go this in depth. Looking forward to any future releases :)
nice vid, sent it to my friends who are new into the game :o
So happy you enjoyed it! Hopefully they can learn a little bit at a good pace- Barony is littered with little tricks that help your runs tremendously!
maybe it's time for races now huh?:) as a new player i only pick human as for now and mostly wizard but after this video i think it'll be worth it to test other classess as well
I think one of the most underappreciated aspects of Barony is the variety of classes you can pick- and while they're all so different, you get a healthy selection to choose from. Like you have your Ranged classes, melee classes, and magic classes, etc, so finding one that fits your playstyle is relatively easy, as long as you're comfortable expanding your horizons lol
I think you might have forgotten to mention that the tinkering kit allows you to repair most of your equipment whenever you want, as long as you have enough skill/scrap.
On your review of the sexton class you said that the utility spells given were niche. Opening is absolutely not a niche spell. Unlike non-magical sources of lock-opening such as lockpicks, the opening spell is the ONLY way to open locked gates without the respective lever for them, making it really a bit of a must-have spell.
also, i agree, it's shelob, not shelobe.
mesmer was my first main and the first class i beat the game with and after 400ish hours i can say that it definitely is one of the worst classes in the entire game. I only play it for the drip and pretty staff now :)
I love this class too! Again I wish it was a little more.... unique? Like it's incredibly fun and "unique-ish" but it's just kind of underwhelming in many ways. I personally think it needs a mini quality of life update, this class absolutely deserves to be played more!!
@@roogeydoogz I really think the whole "lesser charm" idea would be a perfect QoL update to the class. And maybe making it so you can charm up to two enemies instead of just one. Feels a little too restrictive the way it is atm imo
@Sylvie0512 I completely agree! And that's also a really good way of phrasing it- "too restrictive"... it definitely needs a minor tweak to turn this class from a watered-down version of the Conjurer. Charming two monsters might be a great idea, but I REALLY feel like a progression-based "charming" effects would be insanely fun.
Something similar to like the Conjurer and when the skeletons gaining different armor/weapons at certain levels;
the Mesmer could have something like a Lesser Charm Monster spell at level 1 (60 seconds, only works on rats, skeletons, spiders, etc) , a Normal Charm Monster spell (120 seconds, goblins, ghouls, etc), level 20 Advanced Charm spell (permanent charm effect, works on trolls, gnomes, insectoids), and then at like level 25, you get the Dominate spell.
In any case, I think the Mesmer needs a small QoL update for sure!!!!
Thanks a lot for this video!
This video better not follow up a patch that'll rebalance every class suddenly.
This tends to be my luck LMAO. Let's hope that any changes are for the better LOL
Well done, just getting into this game. Your vids are great help.
Pretty good list! My first solo (and owerall) win aganst twins was on mesmer :)
I LOVE this class, it just feels so weak compared to the others! I wish the class was more defined by the ability to charm monsters, rather than a normal class with a charm effect.
you can make your video have chapters by adding a 0:00 timestamp at the start and moving the name of each chapter to the right of the timestamps
I'll consider updating the timestamps, thank you VERY much for the suggestion! I never knew how to do it, although I think it's worked on previous videos without me realizing it lol. Thank you! :)
Love your videos! Keep it up!
Thank you! :)
I know this might be a difficult thing to do but, would it at all be possible to make a list of what classes work best with races? Like i can tell some races work best wirh certain other races, byr where does a goblin fit as a warrior? A rogue? Like i wanna minmax (though i understand this is probably something i should experiment with instead of asking someone else)
I actually am heavily considering doing EXACTLY that!! I have a bunch of videos ideas written down and that's on the top of my list- right next to a "All Spells Tier List"! Definitely stay tuned for that, and by all means, comment any recommendations! :)
How are people even correcting you on how to pronounce Shelob lol
Literally a reference to LOTR
Thank you. She-low-b? Nah man, I refuse to believe that LOL
amazing video, keep the content going
I really hope you stick to making great vids my dude.
I agree with you its pronounced She-lob, but under no circumstances is it pronounced she - lobe. I don't think players understand that Shelob is literally a reference from Lord of the Rings. Shelob is elvish for a female spider. And also she drops a cursed ring of invisability, which is literally the ring from the movie.
Great vid mate
Thank you! I really appreciate the compliment! :)
yep as a brewer fck teammates that touch fountains. those are mine you guys get to touch everything else i get fountains.
im a vampire main but a begginer i usually use vampire monk but should i switch to accursed or ninja
Once you get merchants 50 trade 50 appraise to 100 you're basically playing the game in free mode lol.
I think it's a decent class for sure. If you go into your run playing the merchant and have your goals set on buying things for free, it's a solid class! I love how balanced each class is tbh, it brings a ton of variety to the game
need now a race tierlist
Actually a W video
"a class designed for masochist and nerds" I already bought barony u don't need to sell me it twice
you pronounce Shelob correct in reference to LotR
Sexton is A for me bc of mimics
What exactly is so good about playing the Sexton vs mimics? Genuine question, lol
Locking stuns mimics, making all chests safe.
Also chakrams help early game, free ranged kills around corners.
@wyrdcyko this is exactly why I love comments like these. I love Barony and I'm very happy to share tips that familiar with, but I LOVE reading tips like these that... admittedly are pretty obvious, but SO useful and gun to learn. Thank you very much for sharing that!
My longest run ended because of a mimic in a tight space. I thought I figured out the strat as standing far away and using unlocking to wake the mimic and run but I think this is a much better strat.
quite the skibidi video
I don't agree with this list at all :< I mean here and there, but for the most part I cannot. Good effort though.
I appreciate the honesty. I'd love to learn more if you'd be willing to comment what you didn't like!
@@roogeydoogzI meant what I said with good effort. Its not a bad tier list and as you said this is your opinion. Im pretty certain somebody wouldnt agree with my tier lists either hahaha.
But yeah, Id have to create a whole list of my own explinations to really answer this and thats a bit too much effort for a comment.
Just know I dont disapprove. I just dont quite see eye to eye and id be happy to do a response
I'll always appreciate the honesty first and foremost! I'm really enjoying your content as well, so likewise- please continue to push out more content! :)
@@roogeydoogz
@@LyciantYT oh hey i wasn't expecting to see you here Lyciant
Wizard should be D tier weak early game and has to transitioned to melee late or be useless weak early weak late
you might just need to work on your mana management, wizard is one of the strongest characters in the early game. in the late game, you'll encounter some enemies that are resistant to magic, so you might need to get crafty to kill them, but you also have access to many more spells, potions, and tools at that stage in the game. notably, none of the game's bosses resist magic, so wizard's damage output against them is excellent and safe.
@@beppermint4092 you don't get it. You can beat this game on any class once you finish grinding gnome mines, the late game for this game is a joke, the only difficulty is getting to that point. melee classes scale well into late game unlike wizard, can you beat the game as wizard? Yes in fact you can do it very easily, does it take ages to kill any mobs late game with spells? Also yes that's why the class is dog sht and belong in d tier
@@beppermint4092 also picking vampire race literally invalidates playing as a wizard, just pick other class as a vamp and level magic to 100 before you set foot on the first floor lol, playing as a wizard is a huge handicap
@@beppermint4092 also bosses in this game are the easiest part, and youd literally kill a boss 8 times faster if you are melee compared to being a spell caster late game
I think the Wizard is crazy strong, it's a really solid class when you can properly manage your mana expenditure. Thankfully some of the new hats and mask in Barony help out a lot with mana, so you don't have to worry about deciding when and how to use certain spells.
If I can recommend something, it's to level your Casting skill as often as you can. While you're waiting for your friend to finish taking a fat one, spam cheap spells like the Spell of Light, Spell of Levitation, or even Spell of Forcebolt if you have to. Also like I mentioned previously, keep an eye out for some of the new hats!!!! Some of them can completely make or break certain classes, and the Wizard is no exception. I think it's called the Magus' Headdress, if you find that, your run will do a complete 180. Also, challenge yourself and try to find the Artifact in the Gnomish Mines! Its always in the bottom right corner- the hat you get is I N S A N E for mages in the early game!!!!!!!
Can't quite remember the spell off the top of my head, but the late game for mages can easily be conquered with the "arcane mark" spell. Can't remember what its called, but I'm pretty sure it's Arcane Mark!
Great video!
So happy you enjoyed it! :)
