Are they as skilled as their friends in the use of their character’s talents? Can they surpass their companions’ accomplishments in battle?

Players can choose between several character classes the Safiri Warrior and Ancarian Lancer being just two of these options. Each of these classes offers a specific skill set players must choose their Combat Arts, perks and equipment wisely in order to stand a chance against the Ashen Empire.

The epic fight against Zane is set in a colorful and varied game world with rich mythology and diverse regions and climates.
