Venomancer
The Venomancer is the pet taming class. Also known as the solo class, the Venomancers have their own pet that works as their personal tank. The pet can be healed by the Venomancer, making them the perfect team. But the Venomancer is a lot more then its pets cleric. Specializing in poison magical damage and debuff skills, the Venomancer is a powerful class even without the pet. Venomancers even have the ability to turn themselves into foxes, which increases their physical defense and accuracy. It's also worth mentioning that the Venomancer is probably the most hated class in the game, for various reasons. One being that, with a legendary pet, the Venomancer is able to solely kill bosses that other classes need a whole squad to kill. For this reason, they are also able to gain large amounts of money, that other classes have to work harder to obtain.

Venomancer Armor
Venomancers can use either Heavy Armor or Robe Armor depending on wether they go the fox-form path or the damage dealer path. Most Venomancers use HP gems, but as a pure magic Venomancer, it's better to go with physical gems. You can go for different stats on your equipment depending on which path you take. Damage dealers usually go for the 'channel' stats while the Heavy Armor build goes for Vitality and Strength stats.
Venomancer in PvP
With a pet dealing physical damage and the Venomancer dealing magical damage, it's like fighting against two opponents at once. But the difference between PvE and PvP here is that, the smart opponents wont waste their time on dealing damage to the pet, but only the Venomancer. This might sound obvious if you're playing another class, but as a Venomancer it is really isn't, as you quickly get the habit of relying to much on your pet taking all the damage. This means that it's first when you start PvPing, you really learn to use remedies and pots, and get to know your skills better. Unlike other classes who learn this from level 1.
Venomancer in PvE
Venomancers are the fastest levelers because they have almost twice as much damage as other classes. The pet also takes all the damage that is dealt, which means that you will rarely die in PvE. Venomancers are also able to do most of their own bosses. All of this means they almost never need help from others, which is also why they are so rarely invited in squads. When they are, they usually act as tank, damage dealer or lure.
Venomancer in Territory War
This is where the Venomancers debuff skills really comes into play. Barbarians get most of their power from their buffs, and this is where the Venomancer comes in. They have both their Purge skill, which removes all positive buffs from the target, and their Amplify Damage which makes the target take 20% more damage. This makes killing Barbarians a lot easier. Not only that, but Venomancers also have their Lending Hand skill which gives away one of their sparks to another player. This makes them a great team mate for Wizards who needs both the sparks and the protection, that Venomancer can give.
