Anthem Javelins – your first look at the classes in BioWare’s mech MMO

In most MMOs and RPGs, you must choose a class when designing your character. Anthem is no normal RPG, though, and so there are no classes. Instead you’ll be using an Anthem Javelin: a mech suit that equips you with a variety of weapons and abilities. You can own several different Javelins, which means you can swap between roles depending on the needs of your squad. Tired of playing the team’s tank? Simply grab a different Javelin from your collection for the next mission. But what does each mech do? Our guide to Anthem’s Javelins details what weapons they can use, their unique melee and ranged abilities, and what roles they fulfill on Anthem’s battlefields. No matter what your playstyle is in other games, there’s a Javelin mech that will suit you. And for those curious to expand their horizons, there’s nothing holding you back from trying a different Javelin for a few missions. If it’s love at first stomp, then you can stick with it and further customise it. Not the mech for you? Then simply try another one.
