Your goal is to build up your character to max your power level while battling enemies and requesting help from teams, guild members, or friends.

The Warrior
The Warrior, classically known as the tank, is a perfect choice for gamers who love running headfirst into a battle. The tank gives players an opportunity to learn the game efficiently and does the most damage while looking out for the team. This character is a defensive player, as well as an attacker.

The Sorceress
The Sorceress is known to have exceptional AOE skills and can be counted on to help the team out a great deal. However, gamers that place the Sorceress in the forefront of battle will be sorely disappointed. They have bad control stats, and defense and would fare better in a battle if they are being used as ranged attackers.

The Archer
One of my personal favorites; the Archer does fairly good damage from a distance, and fares well in ranged battles. This class is also beginner friendly and can help the newbie to learn gameplay efficiently. They come in handy for those wanting to steer clear of the battle, while still being able to help team members from a distance.

The Cleric
Who doesn’t love being healed while battling enemies? The Cleric is best suited for gamers that want to help their teammates, attack, heal and defend all in one go. While this class is not the easiest to master, once you get the hang of them they are a fantastic option and one of the most coveted teammates in the game.

A massive monster will appear and you will need to have quick fingers in order to defeat this guy! Attack him by holding in your attack icon and using the extra skills available to you. A red marking on the ground will show that enemies are preparing to use a critical strike.

When attacking these enemies, use your movement to your advantage. Standing still will more than likely be the death of you.
The bottom right corner icon appears as a man on his head. Use this icon to speed away from enemies. This applies to all of the characters looking for a quick getaway.
