Race Select Screen

The next screen you will see is the Race Screen. There are a variety of different races to choose from including the Human, Elf, Dwarf (male only), Gnome (female only), and Porkul. Each race has unique starting stats, so some are better suited for certain classes than others. With the exception of the Dwarves/Gnomes, there are no stat differences between genders.

There are different animations and animation speed between races and genders.While the dwarf hits vertically with an 2H weapon a human attacks with a vertical and a horizontal combo. Dwarfs and Porkuls attack faster with a dagger but slower with other weapons than other races.

Select the combination that you wish for your character, including its race and gender. When you are finished, click the OK button.

Each Race has Racial Abilities that can go into Custom Slots once a character has reached Clvl 30 and acquired the items necessary for them to be acquired.

Fighters require a Strength (STR) of at least 8. Thieves require a Dexterity (DEX) score of at least 8. Priests need a Piety (PIE) score of at least 8. And Mages need an Intelligence (INT) score of at least 8.

Dexterity DEX Affects damage range and critical hit rate. Also affects the chance that treasure chest traps can be disabled and regular traps can be avoided.
Agility AGI Affects received damage amount and received critical hits.
Intelligence INT Affects magic skills for mages. Also reduces the damage of enemy magic.
Piety PIE Affects magic skills for Priests. Also reduces the damage of enemy magic.
