It's possible to beat the game with almost any comp if you plan your moves carefully and pick your items well. While we have ranked the best hero paths in this list, it's still worth checking out all the other hero paths and trying out some new comps. This page looks at the best healer and support classes, the best tank paths, and the best DPS hero paths. To help you pick from the stand-out hero classes in the game, we've sorted them in categories based on playstyle. Planning is the key to success in Darkest Dungeon 2, so consider how the hero paths will interact with each other and what sort of abilities and stats you'll need at your disposal.

Make sure to consider your ideal team comp when picking out which classes you want to run with.

This may be due to their variety of abilities, their impressive stats, or their ability to support the rest of the team. While it can be hard to rank the best classes in the game based on pure strength alone, there are some that stand out as simply offering more value than others.
