Classes introduction

Your class decides how you fight: up close or from range, with weapons or with magic, as a damage dealer or as the one who keeps the team alive. The official guide lists eleven classes. The table below gives the one thing that sets each apart; open a class page for its skills and promotions.

Picture	Class	What stands out
	Trojan	All-out melee attacker with two weapons; lower defence than a Warrior, so big crowds are risky
	Warrior	Heaviest armour and the only class that can equip a shield
	Archer	Bow master who hits from range and several targets at once; a natural hunter and leveler
	Oriental Assassin	The Archer's secret side: after the level 40 promotion, a Throwing Knife turns an Archer into a stealthy ranged killer
	Fire Taoist	Learns a wide range of devastating spells; the most dangerous magic user
	Water Taoist	Peaceful healer who can heal, cure and revive, with lower requirements for quests such as rebirth
	Ninja	Fastest class with deadly attacks but the lowest defence and HP; starts as an Intern until level 15
	Monk	Fights with Prayer Beads and supports the team with strong buffs
	Pirate	Rapier and pistol; doubled item-drop chance when killing or being killed, but only 5 PK points per kill
	Dragon Warrior	Kung fu fighter with Nunchaku, strong in area attacks, recovery and sharing stamina with the team
	Windwalker	Fan user who switches between Stomper (melee) and Chaser (ranged), with strong HP and stamina recovery

• Like to be in the middle of the fight? Trojan, Warrior, Monk or Dragon Warrior.
• Prefer to hit from a distance? Archer, Fire Taoist or Pirate.
• Want speed and burst? Ninja, but you must avoid getting hit.
• Enjoy helping the team? Water Taoist or Monk.
• Can't decide between melee and range? Windwalker does both.

On top of your main class you can learn sub-classes. Each one needs an item to join and has 9 levels; its bonus grows at every level. Here is what each one asks for and what it gives at level 9.

Over the years several classes received their own expansion with new skills and runes, such as Dragon's Ascension for Dragon Warriors, Wave Chaser for Pirates and Dominating Taoists for both Taoists.
