Probably important announcement: If you're planning on starting up playing this game, you might want to wait until they actually announce what servers are going to get shut down. That should happen soon, though, if the announcements are any indication. Though if you join one of the high pop ones (not listed, but you can figure it out based on talking to people on the forums) you're probably set. Just saying, it would suck to create a character, only to have to completely change that character or delete it or rename it just because of a transfer thing you haven't even played long enough to know about. (I know, I know, if you're new to the game, you probably won't have space issues or alt-itis. But some people, particularly the RPers, have issues with their character not being what they invisioned it to be. And people could be RPers and have just joined.) This announcement is probably useful for this segment, though.

Y'see, we're getting into the Master Classes now. Which kind of really aren't a character creation thing, ~~seeing as you can only choose oen once you reach the (current) level cap (which is how some people ended up as level 100s with a Master Class~~) (EDIT: It turns out it actually is possible to get some of the Master Classes at non-level cap, but only a few. As I've only managed to throw one character through the flaming ring, bells and whistles, to get one, I'm not going to talk about requirements-I'm relying on my lovely fellow players for that one.) I know some people like to plan out their character from day one, though, so those just creating their characters are completely welcome too!

Master Classes

Each Master Class only has two Specializations. You can add on a Master Class to your own Class after you meet the requirements and do the mission. Most Master Classes require being the maximum level, but not all. I’ll talk about the requirements later.

(Noble) Hanged Man-Your character now has a chance on any given attack to not die if you’re under a certain percent of your hit points. This works on the Specialization skills as well.

Sacrifice allows you to take on debuffs and other adverse conditions (missing hit points, death) from other characters. The Edge gives you innate skills that give you buffs if you’re below a certain percent of your hit points.

Specializations: Sacrifice, The Edge

(Choice Existence) Death-Upon character death, there is an instant chance (think it’s a percent but I’m not certain) of revival.

Endings has a spell with a chance of instadeath. There are also spells with a likelihood (or certainty, depending on the level) to replace a buff on an enemy with the corresponding debuff, or any health healed with damage.

Beginnings does the same thing, but with an instarevive and replacing debuffs or damage with buffs or healing.

Specializations: Endings, Beginnings

(Demon’s Touch) Devil-If you want to go ‘Darkside’ but not actually go Reversed, this is the Master Class for you. (Or maybe if you’re Reversed, you just want access to the dark powers.) And no, this doesn’t add to your Corruption value or anything.

Power gives you demonic powers, including the ever-popular Temptation and Mudo (Darkness/Chaos) skills, while Defiance gives you protective abilities.

Specializations: Power, Defiance
