A beginner guide to learning Axie Infinity Classes

Let’s turn back time to the good old days, by playing this Pokémon-inspired NFT game. In Axie Infinity, you can breed, raise, and fight against lovable creatures called Axies. Through an in-game marketplace, NFTs are used to buy axies and virtual property (Lands). The majority of transactions happen on Ronin, a quick, tailored sidechain developed by developer Sky Mavis to have fewer fees than the primary Ethereum blockchain.

We will go deeply into Axie Infinity’s class structure in this guide to classes. Being competitive in the game requires you to understand how your class influences your playstyle. For example, learning how to manage greater damage and calculate your stats can help you go up the Axie Infinity game‘s arena ladder.

What are Axie classes? And how do they differ?

An Axie is the main character in the game that you will use to play the game. Each Axie has its own personality, specialties, and charm. As you keep playing the game, you begin to understand the charm of different Axie’s. Though the characteristics vary from Axie to Axie, there are certain things common to all of them, but they vary in terms of stats.

Each Axie has a distinct set of stats that fall into one of four groups:

Health (HP): This is the amount of damage your Axie can take from other opponents. The higher your HP, the longer you can battle it out.

Morale: Morale is a critical strike probability on your axie that can deal opponents 200 percent of their defense power in damage. Morale affects the likelihood that the last stand will succeed (a temporary life extension after HP runs out).

Skill: This is basically the amount of bonus damage you can inflict on your opponent thanks to combo cards.

Speed: Axies in your team take turns in the sequence determined by their speed, thus those who are faster typically take turns first. Axies’ HP, Skill point, Morale Point, and ID will be used to determine turn orders if the speed point is equal.

There are 9 classes and each has its own Axie’s

Additionally, Axies can be divided into nine classes, each having unique stat points and weakness statistics, demanding careful team planning. Let’s learn about nine of them!
