Overview:

Amazon Gets her super strong Valk with 5520-6624 life and +440% defense. Her Decoy could possibly have a lot of life, but not that much for the super strong people.



The Assasin has her claws that will block all types of damage (fire, lightning, cold, poison, physical, and magical). However they only peak at 63% chance. Then again you only have to be around level 40ish to be great.



The Necromancer has a very strong Blood Golem which steals life for it and the user. The Blood Golem goes with 5,733 life and 146% life leech. The Necromancer gets to use the marrowalk bug which can help his bone armor (absorbing a nice 850 damage). An added bonus is that he can also keep creating bone walls/bone prisons for more targets on a Lightning Fury Amazon.



The Barbarian obviously has the added advantage of gaining so much life every level. He also boosts his own defense an insanely 1,350% (ex: start with 750 and end with 67,914). Also he gets some more life too (ex- carrying 10 small charms of vita (200) turns into 304 life).



Paladins have a double advantage of being able to regain life at a very hefty speed (92 every 2 sec.) or having extra defense (+460%). If you go the Defense route you can have a grand 1,310%



Sorceress have the ability to convert 95% damage into mana and take only 5% of the damage (C-Razy!). And they only have to be level 49 for it to take place! They also get 279% defense from a shiver armor.



A druid that turns itself into a werebear can easily get enough life to just stand there (from 400 to 1,920!) and also have extra defense (from 750 to 1,462.5). A good choice for a person who wants to level only to 49.



The druid summoner may have a very high level but it comes at a good price. Being able to have a Grizzly with 17,187.5 – 23,437.5 life! And with the 490% extra defense (750 turns into 3,675) the Grizzly could possibly tank all day.
