Best Class in 99 Nights in the Forest
S-Tier
- Vampire – Best Class for Solo Run!
- Undead: Best solo class thanks to its self-revive ability — hard to kill and perfect for surviving alone.
- Necromancer: Summons allies by killing cultists, making fights easier. Great in both solo and co-op play.
- Fire Bandit: Amazing fire damage and loot potential. Starter gear includes Infernal Crossbow and Wildfire Potion.

- Chef: Food buffs give huge boosts in late-game survival. Excellent for both solo and team play.
- Poison Master ( – 200 Diamonds): Uses poison attacks that spread between enemies. Gets deadlier the longer fights last.
- Base Defender: Turns your camp into a fortress. Defenses deal more damage, perfect for holding your ground.
- Berserker: Revives after death with low HP and gets stronger as health drops. Ideal for aggressive players.
- Ranger (70 Diamonds): Reliable ranged damage with ammo-saving perks and a revolver for long fights.
- Assassin (500 Diamonds): Fast, deadly, and precise. High crits and speed but low HP — for skilled players only.

A-Tier
- The Witch (900 Candies): Throw Potion to Enemies

B-Tier
- Support: Boosts ally damage and defense in co-op but less useful when playing solo.
- Scavenger (20 Diamonds): Finds more loot, opens chests faster, and carries extra items.
- Camper (10 Diamonds): Reduces hunger drain and improves night vision — perfect for beginners.

If you value defense and teamwork, Base Defender and Medic are unmatched. For raw damage, go with Berserker or Assassin. Resource-focused players will thrive as Lumberjack or Scavenger, while beginners can start strong with Camper. Your Diamond investment should match your preferred playstyle—whether you want to be the team’s shield, its sword, or its lifeline.
