Classes

A

The classic sword-and-shield frontliner, advancing into the Knight. Built around a deep HP pool and damage mitigation, it anchors party dungeons and guild content while its Bowling Bash-style AoE keeps it a competent solo farmer. Forgiving to play and gear, it is a safe pick for players who like to be at the centre of the fight.

S

The elemental spellcaster, advancing into the Wizard. Its wide area-of-effect magic and crowd control make it the quickest class to level and one of the most gear-friendly for free-to-play players. Squishy up close, it rewards positioning and pre-casting, and stays a staple of efficient PvE farming.

A

The bow specialist, advancing into the Hunter. It delivers steady single-target damage from range, layers elemental arrows and traps, and keeps potion use low — making it one of the most reliable and self-sufficient farmers in the game. A comfortable, low-stress class for players who prefer to fight from a distance.

A

The devotee, advancing into the Priest. It brings healing, sustain, party buffs and resurrection, making it effectively mandatory for high-end dungeons and guild content. A battle-support build lets it hold its own solo, but its real value is as the glue that keeps a party alive.

B

The shadow, advancing into the Assassin. It stacks critical hits and attack speed into devastating single-target burst, thriving in duels and PvP once geared. Its early PvE area damage is weaker and it leans on investment, so it is a class that pays off later rather than out of the gate.

B

The trader, advancing into the Blacksmith. It turns street-merchant stalls and crafting into a steady stream of Zeny, underpinning the player economy, and its Cart Revolution-style attacks give it real AoE damage once invested. A long-game class: patient players are rewarded with wealth and a capable late-game bruiser.

S

A standalone gun class with no second-job branch, swapping between pistols and rifles to control range and burst. It dominates early MVP hunting and burst-damage checks and is friendly to free-to-play players, though it is SP-hungry and wants several refined weapons to shine across situations.

A

The brand-new class making its debut in The New World, a shapeshifter that swaps between three forms — a melee werewolf, a ranged bird-form, and a human arcanist caster — to cover any role on the fly. Its high skill ceiling and triple gear demands make it demanding to master, but few classes are as flexible.
