A very solid single player choice is the Railmaster the combination of solid weapon damage and the genuinely solid AI of the train familiar levels the field pretty effectively. For soloing, it is wiser to stay away from the Dusk Mage and Sharpshooter - though certainly workable, the lack of melee attack options can make for a more challenging run, especially in the earlier levels. Selecting the best class for the player requires a number of factors to be considered. A ranged expert capable of weakening and targeting single foes, the damage potential of the Sharpshooter is excellent. One of them is a delightful ghost dog, which really may be the biggest plus. The chain grants the Sharpshooter a range of summonable spirits that can knock back, poison, and generally harass enemies that attempt to approach the Sharpshooter. Helping keep the distance needed for the bow to do its best is the Adventurer skill tree. The fittingly titled Precision skill tree amplifies this ability, specializing in attacks that do high impact, stacking damage from a distance (with a shotgun-like scattershot for times when a swarm is threatening). The Sharpshooter is the only class able to use the bow, a highly accurate, whip fast weapon that emphasizes the precision focus of the character. The newest of the Torchlight 3 classes, the sharpshooter is another ranged specialist, trucking more in the realm of physical weapons than fancy magics (though they have some tricks up their sleeves in that department). It might not be anything fancy, but it is a pleasant callback both to its Torchlight forerunners and the classic dungeon crawlers of the early days of RPG gaming - Diablo with a Funko Pop aesthetic if you will. It has taken the form of an ultra-simplified RPG boiling down level gains to the distribution of skill points amongst set trees and looting for gear to properly power up the player - including the unusual relics, who provide their own distinct skill trees to their bearers.

However, with the recent release of the early access beta, the long-suffering dungeon crawler seems to have finally found its feet.
BEST TORCHLIGHT 3 CLASS SERIES
The game has gone through a series of changes over the course of its two-year development process it has bounced between developers and studios, soldiered on through sudden delays and identity crises, even changed from a far-reaching MMO to a form closer to its RPG series predecessors. The path that leads to the current state of Torchlight 3 is one that is long and especially winding.
