Summary
Enshrouded has many different playstyles and techniques available for players to dedicate themselves to, which results in fun and interesting builds. Builds in Enshrouded can be considered as classes due to their associated name on the skill tree, however this does not prevent the player choosing skills from other trees. This allows builds to pick up convenient features from other class branches, which results in a much more well-rounded build.

Skill Points
When the player levels up, they will be granted skill points, which can be used to unlock nodes in the Skills Menu (Opened by pressing H). Each available class is listed here, with the name of the class listed at the end of each branch. Each class has a preferred attribute, attributes are stats that can increase the effectiveness of abilities. All classes' Primary attributes are listed below. Most skill tree nodes require a certain number of attribute points to obtain.
| Class | Primary Attribute |
| Barbarian, Warrior, Athlete, Tank | Strength |
| Trickster, Healer, Battlemage, Wizard | Intelligence |
| Ranger, Beastmaster, Survivor, Assassin | Dexterity |
How to Pick a Class
Classes in Enshrouded don't need to be explicitly chosen or dedicated to. To "pick" a class, simply invest skill points into the branches of a desired class. Typically, however, each class contains a powerful skill considered build-defining. The player will receive enough skill points to invest fully into a class and pick up skills from other trees. Below, we've listed the Unique Skills from all trees. Check out the guide here for some of the best class spells available.
