Commander

Commander is one of the role-playing subclasses in the MMORPG Elder Tale.

Overview
It is an advanced subclass derived from the Knight. To become a Commander, a player needs to raise its Knight’s level (by leading Earthling Knights to slay monsters for example) and then to take a subclass-transfer quest.

Commanders are higher ranked soldiers who command Knights, often Knights who proved themselves to be worthy of leading a military unit. They get and give bonuses when using commanding skills on allies during battles. While it can be handy in large-scale battles such as raids, those skills remain subclass skills with little influence or no direct effect in small-scale combat when playing, so Knight is overall better for casual players. Logically, the Knights’ number is overwhelmingly superior to the Commanders’ minor one due to the advanced statut and the additional work needed to get the subclass. There is a struggle between staying as a Knight and graduating as a Commander because of their own dedicated quests and equipment items.

As a military captain and superior of the Knight, the Commander’s small population holds a high social status and recognition for People of the Land. They also have access to a telepathy skill that allows them to send messages to many soldiers simultaneously. Even if the skill is limited to the Commander’s field of view, it is extremely useful for them, as People of the Earth have very limited means of communication.
