Ruler is arguably one of if not the strongest class. Their HP stat is effectivley doubled since in most general scenarios they resist the majority of the standard classes you will encounter. Extra classes, especially those dealing wide neutral damage to almost everyone (Ruler, Avenger, Moon Cancer, Foreigner) usually rely on strong crit damage to make up for their lack of the class effectiveness modifier, hence why Jalter was so powerful with her kit on release and why lots of Extra Class servants after were built similarly. This makes them versatile attackers, tanky so they require little babysitting, and effective in most game content because their counters are only other extra classes that are rare to appear.
