Welcome, adventurer! Just started Tree of Savior Neo and not sure where to begin? Don’t worry, we’ve got your back. This Tree of Savior Neo Beginners Guide is your one-stop roadmap for choosing your class, understanding game mechanics, and grabbing some early advantages (yes, we’ve got codes too 🤑). Let’s jump in!
Class Selection – Pick Your Playstyle
First things first – your starting class is a big decision. It shapes how you’ll experience the game early on. Here’s a breakdown of each class with tips to help you choose:
Guard (Tank) – The Frontline Wall
- Role: Tank
- Difficulty: Easy
- Why Choose It: Great survivability and party demand
- Top Skill: AoE taunt that gathers up to 6 enemies
Perfect For: Players who love controlling the battlefield and soaking up damage for their team. You’ll never struggle finding a dungeon group with this role.
Mage – The AoE Nuke Machine
- Role: Ranged Magic DPS
- Difficulty: Moderate
- Why Choose It: Big damage and crowd control
- Top Trait: AoE spells that clear mobs fast
Heads-Up: Everyone loves a DPS, so expect longer party queues. But if you’re in it for the flashy spells, this is your pick.
Healer – The Flexible Supporter
- Role: Support / Hybrid DPS
- Difficulty: Moderate
- Why Choose It: Solo-friendly + team essential
- Top Feature: Switch between healing and DPS builds
Pro Tip: Start with a DPS build for solo content, then swap to healing for group play. This is arguably the most versatile class.
Gunslinger – The Ranged Summoner
- Role: Physical DPS
- Difficulty: Easy to Moderate
- Why Choose It: AoE skills + cool summons
- Top Skill: Damage + pet summon combo
Personal Favorite for many – simple, fun, and great in most content types.
Hunter – The Skill Combo Assassin
- Role: Melee DPS
- Difficulty: High
- Why Choose It: High mobility, burst, and precision combos
- Top Trait: Manual skill chaining for max effect
Warning: Not newbie-friendly. Avoid auto-combat; you’ll need to time your combos manually to truly shine.
Quick Tips for Starting Strong
Use Your Skill Presets
The game lets you set up different skill loadouts (DPS, Healing, PvP, etc.). This is super important for swapping builds without rebuilding from scratch.
- Set up your DPS preset for campaign
- Have a Healing preset for dungeons
- Use Quick Allocate to distribute points instantly
Don’t skip this – switching builds on the fly saves time and boosts performance.

🍖 Use Your Food Buffs (But Wisely)
Buffs help a lot – but don’t waste them on easy campaign missions.
When to Use:
- Gear Rifts
- Tower Challenges
- Difficult dungeons
Hold off during the story mode – save those buffs for real challenges.
Gear Management – Upgrade Smart
Here’s a quick gear upgrading priority list:
- Weapon – Best boost to attack power
- Robe – Best defense upgrade (physical + magical)
- Gloves – Bonus HP and defense
Transfer Substats: If a gear piece has an open slot and you have a better stat to move—do it. Always optimize your stats.
Life Skills – What Should You Focus On?
Eventually, you’ll unlock Life Skills. Out of the options, here are the MVPs:
- Cooking (Food Buffs) – Insanely helpful in late-game content
- Alchemy (Potions) – Great for both survival and selling for profit
Start with Cooking for personal use, and explore Alchemy for some extra silver-making.
Join a Guild – ASAP

- Easier dungeon runs
- More social rewards
- Access to guild buffs & events
