A leather-armored melee brawler who fights without magic. The Beastmaster’s power comes from physical mastery and a deep, persistent bond with a single animal companion. Their companion is not summoned on a cooldown — it is tamed, earned, and irreplaceable. It fights alongside them in melee, requires real care and upkeep, and grows more powerful over time. Other creatures appear situationally through combat abilities, but the core of the class is always the bond between hunter and companion.
- Persistent animal companion fights as a genuine second combatant
- Wide race selection among the broadest in the roster
- Bestial stances cover offense, defense, speed, stealth, and resistance
- Strong survivalist self-healing for both self and companion
- Can buff themselves, their companion, and party members
- Temporary creature calls (hawks, rats) add situational burst and debuffs
- Companion requires active care — its death disrupts the entire combat model
- No access to magic whatsoever
- Highly dependent on companion uptime to reach full output
- Damage falls below pure DPS classes without the companion
- Support tools are more situational than dedicated classes
Beastmaster combat flows around the companion bond. Send the companion in to engage, then follow with two-handed weapon or claws, stacking Bestial stances to enhance output and survivability for both of you. The companion holds its own in melee but needs to be healed and protected — letting it die forces a difficult mid-combat recovery. Situational creature calls add burst and debuff options at key moments. The taming system gives long-term depth: different companion types open new combat dynamics and specializations.
Each companion type a Beastmaster can tame brings its own toolkit of innate abilities, from raw melee power to utility effects that shape how the partnership fights in combat. The chart below breaks down every tamable pet type and the abilities it offers.

Perfect for players who love animal companions and want one that feels genuinely alive and meaningful — not just a stat bonus. If you want to build a two-fighter partnership, develop your companion through taming and care, and fight alongside something you’ve earned rather than summoned, the Beastmaster delivers that experience fully. Appeals to players who enjoy survivalist, self-sufficient gameplay rooted in the wilderness.
