after a long wait before new info, a new video surfaced on youtube of all the class changes available after a certain level!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Btpa3GMPkM&feature=sub
I was literally up to the roof while watching this.
So here's the deal,
We have 2 sub-classes for each class.
Warrior - Sword Master/Mercenary
Bowman - Bow Master/Acrobat
Sorceress - Elemental Lord/Force User
Cleric - Paladin/Priest
Other than the video, There is no information yet on any certain skills or techniques each particular sub-class owns.
Speculating on the video, here is what I can tell you:
Warrior
Sword master: Obviously the main weapon is sword and attacks seem to have sped up quite a bit but it looks like you have lost much of the ability to mob. This seems to be more of an offensive class, good for bossing as the main skills seem to target one at a time.
Mercenary: The main weapon is either a hammer or a long axe. Judging by the skills in the video, you will have more skills that have to do with taking out monsters in a wider area rather than one at a time, your main attacks are spins and long-term slashes.
Bowman
Bow Master: Main weapon is long bow of course and the technique is relying on your bow and long range to your advantage. Staying far from enemies and keeping them at bay with Strong and fast shots and flurries of arrows.
Acrobat: Wielding a rather strange looking bow is the acrobat.
This sub-class is quite unique as it utilizes short range shots and unstoppable flurries of attacks to take out enemies without taking a hit. It should be noted that this class is for those bowmen who can't help but fight in the front-lines, If you're one of them, this is probably for you.
Sorceress
Elemental Lord: The Elemental Lord seems like quite a powerful sub-class. It extracts elements from the natural environment and uses it to her disposal resulting in unstoppable AOE. Hell, She's sliding on fire and laughing as the enemies behind her burn! I think this is an all around class, close or far, you can handle both ranges.
Force User: Quite an odd class. My guess is that instead of taking elements from earth, the Force user utilizes cosmic energy and releases it in battle. Because not much of the skills are shown, Not much can be explained, but I think it's more of a long-ranged class.
Cleric:
Paladin: Main weapon is the flail. This class relies on brute strength and AOEs to dispose of opponents. As seen in the video, The paladin can buff himself (which we would assume would affect his party too). He seems to be good at mobbing so would probably take place in the front-lines of battle.
Piest: Main weapon is the mace. The priest relies more on lightning magic to mob his enemies, but apparently needs to be close to a group of enemies to use them effectively. A priest in the MMO community is known to heal its party members, but it's unsure whether the Priest has these skills or not.
Let's hope this MMO comes out soon!!
