A Class is the primary adventuring style of a player character which determines the type of weapons and armor it can use, as well as what abilities , styles and spells it will gain throughout its adventures.

The choice of which class is available to play is determined by the realm, race and in some cases the gender. The only exception is the recently added Mauler class which can be played by all three realms.

Each class has specialization lines in which a character character can put points which unlock further abilities, spells or styles.
