Classes
You arrive in Ithaca as a Novice: a little gear, a lot of nerve. Reach Job Lv. 10 and one of the city's four orders will take you in. Master it, and a second class awaits.
Job advancement
Just like in Ragnarok Online and the classic MMORPGs, you change class as you grow. Every first class branches into two second classes, so your path keeps narrowing into something that's yours.
Everyone starts here. Reach Job Lv. 10 to choose a class.
Join one of the four orders. Train up to Job Lv. 50.
From Job Lv. 40, master a specialty of your order.

The Guild of Hermes
Hermes is god of both merchants and thieves, and rumor says his guild in Ithaca trains both. Its doors open in a later chapter.
Chapter One opens the Novice and the four first classes. Second classes arrive in later chapters.
The four orders
Each order trains its apprentices for a different kind of fight. How you grow from there is up to you.
The Myrmidons
Frontline melee
Named for Achilles' legendary warriors and sworn to hold the line. Swordsmen wade into the thick of the fight in bronze and stubbornness, taking the hits so their friends don't have to.
“First through the gate, last to fall back.”
Great for: Heroes who want to be in the thick of every fight.
The Circle of Hecate
Ranged magic
Students of Hecate, goddess of magic, who learned to pull fire, frost and lightning from the Aether shards that keep the isles aloft. Fragile up close. Devastating from afar.
“Power drawn from the aether itself.”
Great for: Heroes who love big hits and clever positioning.
The Hunt of Artemis
Ranged physical
Sworn to Artemis, goddess of the hunt, archers patrol the crumbling edges of the isles, where one wrong step means a fall into Chaos. Swift, sharp-eyed and always one step ahead.
“Never where the monster expects.”
Great for: Heroes who value speed, range and a steady aim.
The Asclepiads
Support & healing
Healers of the temple of Asclepius, Acolytes carry the god's gift into the dark, mending wounds and blessing allies when the fight turns grim.
“As long as I stand, you stand.”
Great for: Heroes who'd rather keep their friends alive.
The orders are still training their first apprentices, so expect paths to change as adventurers test them. Chapter One is planned to include four to six classes or class variants.
Stats
Every hero has the same six stats. Where you put your points decides whether you hit hard, strike fast, shrug off blows or rain down spells.
STR
Patron: Heracles
Raw power for melee attacks, and the muscle to haul more loot home.
AGI
Patron: Hermes
Swift as the messenger god. Strike faster and slip past blows.
VIT
Patron: Atlas
The endurance of the Titan who holds up the sky. Take hits and keep standing.
INT
Patron: Athena
Wisdom becomes spellpower. Bigger magic, deeper reserves of SP.
DEX
Patron: Artemis
A steady hand and a true aim. Land your hits and loose arrows harder.
LUK
Patron: Tyche
Fortune favors the bold. Critical strikes and dodges that defy the odds.
Build planner
Pick a class and a level, then spend your status points. Try a classic build or invent your own.
Based on the classic (pre-Renewal) Ragnarok Online stat rules. A preview of the planned rules: numbers will be tuned during testing.
Status points0 / 420
Weight limit3,260
How heroes grow
Small wins every time you play, and big goals worth chasing. That's how a Novice becomes a legend.
Up to Lv. 99. Every level grants status points to spend on your six stats.
Levels your class. Every job level grants a skill point, and the right job level unlocks your next class.
STR, AGI, VIT, INT, DEX and LUK decide what kind of fighter you become.
Spend skill points on strikes, spells, blessings and heals unique to your class.
Weapons, armor and trinkets that change how you fight, and how you look.
Mix it all your way. Two Swordsmen can play nothing alike.
The Armory
Every helmet, cloak, weapon and shield shows on your hero, and every class has looks inspired by the legends: from a Myrmidon's bronze to the gold of a Champion of Olympus.
You'll choose your order when the gates of Ithaca open. Here's what the first voyage holds.
