Classes

Elder Tale allows players to choose a class at the beginning of the game. There are four types of classes - Warrior, Weapon-based, Healer and Mage. These four types are similar to the Tank/Healer/DPS roles commonly found in most MMORPGs. The DPS classes of Elder Tale, however, have been split into two groups of base classes to differentiate between their physical and magical counterparts. For example, the Assassin and Sorcerer are both primarily centered around doing maximum DPS to defeat enemies quickly, whereas the Bard and Enchanter are both support orientated classes with low damage output and the ability to either buff allies or debuff enemies. Since each base class has three classes that belong to its group - and there are four base classes in all - players may choose from twelve different classes.
