Wondering which class to pick in Oblivion Remastered? Hereโs a full tier list breakdown of the best Combat, Magic, and Stealth classes to help you decide.
Oblivion Remastered: Best Classes Tier List (Combat, Magic, and Stealth)
Oblivion Remastered gives players 21 different default classes, spread across Combat, Magic, and Stealth specializations. Sure, you can make a custom class if you want, but if you’re looking for a good starting point without stressing about every detail, these preset classes are a solid way to go.
This guide ranks every class into three separate tier listsโone for Combat, one for Magic, and one for Stealthโso you can pick the perfect fit for your playstyle.
Best Combat Classes in Oblivion Remastered
| Tier | Class | Why Itโs Ranked Here |
| C-Tier | Archer | Combat spec, but half-Stealth skills. Hand-to-Hand feels wasted here. |
| C-Tier | Barbarian | Fun melee option, but one-dimensional unless paired with Orc/Redguard bonuses. |
| B-Tier | Warrior | Solid melee class with Heavy Armor, but Hand-to-Hand again feels like filler. |
| B-Tier | Scout | Great hybrid with Alchemy and Acrobatics, but Speed isnโt game-changing. |
| A-Tier | Knight | Strong overall, but Personality isnโt the best Favored Attribute for combat. |
| A-Tier | Rogue | Feels more like a swashbuckler than a true Stealth rogue. Still versatile. |
| S-Tier | Crusader | Hybrid king โ combines Destruction and Restoration with Heavy Armor and melee weapons for a super flexible and fun build. |
Best Magic Classes in Oblivion Remastered
| Tier | Class | Why Itโs Ranked Here |
| C-Tier | Healer | Good if you like support roles, but not great for power builds. |
| C-Tier | Sorcerer | Heavy Armor makes pure mage builds clunky. |
| B-Tier | Nightblade | Hybrid class with strong spell support, but Speed is a wasted Attribute. |
| B-Tier | Mage | Pure spellcaster with all six schools, but no variety outside magic. |
| A-Tier | Spellsword | Magic + melee is awesome, but Endurance/Willpower Favored Attributes arenโt perfect. |
| A-Tier | Battlemage | Hybrid powerhouse, great mix of Strength and Intelligence attributes. |
| S-Tier | Witchhunter | The ultimate stealth-mage hybrid. Great for players who want to snipe, conjure, and sneak all at once. |
Best Stealth Classes in Oblivion Remastered
| Tier | Class | Why Itโs Ranked Here |
| C-Tier | Monk | Too many wasted Major Skills like Hand-to-Hand and Acrobatics. |
| C-Tier | Agent | Great roleplay class, but weaker in combat compared to others. |
| B-Tier | Bard | Fun and flexible, but Attributes donโt align perfectly with combat needs. |
| B-Tier | Pilgrim | Good mix of social and dungeon-crawling skills, but lacks pure damage power. |
| A-Tier | Acrobat | Agile, quick, solid fighter โ just held back a bit by Acrobatics skill. |
| A-Tier | Thief | Classic stealth setup with a few slight stat mismatches. |
| S-Tier | Assassin | Perfect Stealth build. Ideal for Dark Brotherhood or Stealth Archer playthroughs. |
If you want to dominate in melee, you canโt go wrong picking Crusader.
For pure magic or hybrid magic builds, Witchhunter and Battlemage are awesome choices.
And for sneaky types who want to live that stealth life, Assassin is absolutely the way to go.
No matter what you pick, Oblivion Remasteredโs classes are flexible enough that you can evolve your character over time. Or if none of the default classes feel perfect, you can always create a custom one and fine-tune every detail.
