If you're an Elden Ring aficionado, you already know the game shines with its diverse playstyles, and one of my personal favorites involves stacking Strength, wielding the biggest weapon possible, and smashing foes with posture-breaking jumping attacks and charged heavy strikes. Sound familiar? Then meet the Raider in Nightreign (check out the video below).

While the Guardian—a hulking class with a shield and a focus on defense—has an ultimate ability to protect the entire party, the Raider is built purely for offense.

The most crucial ability of the Raider is Retaliate, which might seem modest at first glance—it's just two stomps dealing some physical and poise damage. However, due to the Raider’s passive, this move grants immunity to knockdowns, making it an invaluable tool to soak up damage without fear. Once activated, the second stomp transforms into a devastating punch capable of staggering even the largest enemies.

Next up is the Raider’s ultimate, Totem Stela, which slams the ground to summon a massive totem that deals massive damage and creates a climbable structure. This totem also buffs the team, providing strategic advantages during battles. Coordination with teammates can turn the tide in any fight.

Starting with the Raider’s Greavtaxe, a fiery weapon with an "Endure" skill, the Raider’s arsenal evolves as you progress. Large strength-scaling weapons are ideal for maximizing the Raider’s potential.

Of all the classes in Nightreign, the Raider offers unmatched one-on-one combat excitement, especially in its unique gladiatorial-style Remembrance battles.

Which of the eight Nightreign classes are you most excited to use?
