character classes
classes that can be chosen within THE WORLD.
The character class chosen determines the base appearance to other players and the role that they can play during combat. Because skills and abilities are given by the items equipped, each character class can only use a specific type of weapon, though some armors can be used by multiple classes. However some character classes are chosen only as a matter of aesthetic value, reflecting the user's self image whether real or ideal.
primary classes
Blademaster: A playable charcter class that uses swords. This class is probably more accurate than others.
Heavy Axeman: A playable character class that uses gigantic axes to deal heavy damage.
Heavy Blade: A playable character class that uses broadswords and katanas to attack enemies. This class has the highest attack power of all the classes in the The World.
Long Arm: A playable character class that uses spears and lances.
Twin Blade: A playable character class that uses identical dual blades. This class has average attack power.
Wavemaster: A playable character class that uses staves and long-range magic, rather than attacking up close. This class has the lowest attack power and players using this class should avoid close-combat. They are the strongest in dealing elemental/magical damage.
other classes
Harvest: They are one of the two classes who specialize in magic focusing on defensive and healing magic, while their counterparts the Warlocks focus on offensive magic.
Warlock: They are mainly a casting class, specializing primarily in offensive magic. Their favored weapons are tomes, which they use to cast most of their magic.
Steam Gunner: Steam Gunners use guns to attack, both as melee and as ranged weapons.
Grappler: Grapplers specialize in unarmed hand-to-hand combat.
Dance Macabre: A strange class, they wield fan-like weapons. They cut their enemies with the bladed tips of their fans in a battle form that resembles a dance.
Multi Weapon: (uncommon class) It's users do not specialize in a single weapon, or form of combat. Instead practicing in the use of the various types of weapons inside the game, a Multi Weapon acquires several forms through quests, each of which allows him or her to use a different weapon type.
-----The "true power" of the Multi Weapon, Job Extend quests are limited-time quests in which a Multi Weapon may acquire his or her next form. One form the quests have taken is as a challenging solo dungeon where the Multi Weapon must not only fend for his or her self, but also solve a puzzle hidden in the dungeon itself.-----
expansion pack class(es)
Werewolves: An expansion of the Kickboxer Class. Were wolves can transform into wolves at will and have fur so they don't get cold on Ice areas. You can only get this class in The World expansion pack.
Kickboxer: A character class that uses fists to fight opponents.
Archer: Archers use bows and arrows to fight enemies.
[possibly more classes will be added at a later time]
