How this list is worked out
Counts from each class's skills (SkillListCategory): actives and stigmas; area attacks = damage skills whose first effect hits more than one target (SkillEffectFilter.TargetCountMax); ranged = damage skills with a range of 15 m or more; heals = skills with a heal effect. Hardest hit = the largest share of Attack one use deals at the level skill points reach (ratio × hits).
Assumptions: Counts are not power: cooldowns, buffs, stigmas and gear decide a fight, and the client holds no combat model to weigh them.
From the game files: client 2.0.6.0 (Steam build 25767555, 2026-10-07). A patch that changes these tables changes the list.
