The Witch practices a kind of Dark Magic. However, rather than constituting a traditional and remote caster, the latter does not hesitate to enter the fray to distribute blows.
Philosophy
The Witch is a somewhat unusual class.
Indeed some of his skills are ranged attacks while others are resolutely melee attacks.

Relatively atypical consider the Witch of Black Desert to be a mix between a Dark Mage, or Shadow Priest, and a fist weapon user.- Thus, rather than systematically fleeing contact when the enemies are very close, the witch will have perfect shots to play depending on the situation.
- In addition, the Witch has a particular resource system, in fact in addition to Mana it will also be necessary to manage your Dark Shards.
- Finally, keep in mind that the Witch's defenses are relatively weak, so you will have to rely on her mobility to get out of the game.
Strengths and weaknesses
- Very mobile
- Comfortable in contact and at a distance
- Excellent dodge skills
- Good AoE Attacks
- Weak defense
- Few support skills
- Repetitive if distance only
- In danger if resources are exhausted
Getting started
Rather than displaying yet another copy of the skill tree present in the game, and to be able to understand them more easily, the skills have been deliberately reorganized.
Basic skills
Ranged attacks
As said before, the Witch has powerful ranged attacks. However, they are relatively slow and hamper your mobility.
Detailed resources and skills
Whenever you hit an enemy with a skill you gain Dark Shards (visible near your health bar). These Shards are then used to cast certain specific skills.
Resource management
Kicks and Movements
Utilities
Characteristics orientation
For a classic use of the Witch, the characteristics to be favored are:
- Casting Speed
- Critical Hit Chances
- Attack Speed
It goes without saying that this constitutes an initial guide and is not intended to exhaustively represent the different ways of playing, in particular the more exotic. On the other hand, there are deliberately synthetic references specific to the class in question.
Thus were deliberately excluded the use of the character in mounts or its use in specialized roles like pure support or group PVP.
However, if on reading it you find that you have missed information, or if you have had the inspiration to write a more specific guide, do not hesitate to let us know.
