Raven 2 has kicked off Season 10, and we’ve crunched the numbers for the opening week of the Tower of Chaos rankings. This season runs until 4:59 AM on April 1st. Right now, it’s all about how players balance their builds and climb the ladder. Whether it’s tweaking buffs or shaving off seconds, looking at the overall record rankings, it’s clear they haven't had much time to optimize their runs yet.

The spotlight is on our joint leaders: ROYAL뭉이아빠 and VC원장. ROYAL뭉이아빠 has held onto the top spot since the end of Season 9. That said, their clear time has crept up from 6 seconds to 13 seconds. With plenty of time left in the season, I expect those times to tumble down soon.VC원장 wrapped up the previous season at floor 45 in 12 seconds, taking 3rd place. Meanwhile, the runner-up from last time, 노쇼하는쓰라리, has seen their time shift from 8 seconds to 14 seconds. They’ve started the new season in a three-way tie for 3rd place alongside 노쇼한이그리 and 신화FRED.

That 14-second mark? It’s widely considered the benchmark for the elite tier. Let’s look back at the last two tallies: in the final Season 9 report, a 14-second clear landed a player in a tie for 4th—just shy of the podium. Yet, in the first Season 10 chart, 14 seconds is the baseline for 3rd place. Right now, it’s the entry barrier for the upper echelon of Raven 2’s Tower of Chaos. I’m eager to see who manages to break through this wall next.

Tower of Chaos Class-Based Top 5 Rankings

Next up, our class-based Top 5 charts. Raven 2 is currently in a class-change season, and our friends 노쇼하는쓰라리 and ROYAL뭉이아빠 have made the switch—the former moving from Assassin to Berserker, and the latter from Gunslinger to Vanguard. The peak records have shifted accordingly. It’s a double win for the Berserker crowd, as their clear times are trending downwards as well.

The Elementalist is also looking rather sharp. While the top spot remains locked at 45F/26s, the 2nd to 5th place times have plummeted from the 1:30s down to an average of 33 seconds. Either the Elementalist mains have been hitting the gym, or some high-level players have migrated over. If this momentum holds, we might see a better performance than in Season 9 of the Tower of Chaos.

Tower of Chaos Class Distribution

Finally, the class distribution chart for the Tower of Chaos. With the pool size significantly reduced, we’re seeing some notable shifts. The lion's share is heading towards Night Ranger, Divine Caster, and Berserker. The real story here is the Berserker. Since we started tracking the Tower of Chaos, the Night Ranger and Divine Caster counts haven’t budged from the 700-player cap, which means the surge in these classes is really just the influx of Berserker players at the start of the season.

Deathbringer has climbed one spot. The 0.2% point gain is modest, but they’ve benefited from the significant dip in the Gunslinger population. It suggests that while Gunslinger players are taking their time on the climb this season, Deathbringer mains are putting the pedal to the metal. Given it’s a class-change season, it’s fair to assume the Gunslinger’s popularity is on the wane. We’ll need to check the mid-season data for a clearer picture.
