Despite this disadvantage, they are considered one of the best, if not the best, PvP class due to their ability to move quickly across the map with teleportation and ranged attacks, which makes them ideal for Hit-and-Run tactics. The Sorceress, most valued for her high elemental damage output and ranged AOE attacks rather than her teamwork, is great against large groups of monsters however, since they deal elemental magic damage, they are less efficient in PvP combat due to elemental resistances.
