Chapter 48: Lore, The five main categories

Lore, The five main categories

 

 

Warrior, Rogue, Archer, Mage and Healer. These are the five main categories of combat and magic focused classes. There are of course classes not fitting into any of the five most prominent categories and we often label those as belonging to the miscellaneous category. Those can be workers, crafters and the like.

The fastest way to level up with any class is through combat, even with the classes belonging to the misc-category. There are however other ways for crafters and workers to gain experience, more on that in later (see page 143).

The Warrior category covers classes that mainly focus on different facets of physical combat at either short or medium range.

The Rogue category covers classes both physical and magical with a focus on swift takedown of single targets at short range. There are more non-combat focused classes belonging to this category compared to Warrior.

The Archer category covers classes with physical damage output at medium and long range as their focus.

The Mage category covers all magical focused classes of all ranges and is the broadest category of them all. There are many affinity specific variants and their focus doesn’t have to be solely on combat, even though that is the most common way a mage class develops.

The Healer category is often thought of as a mage subcategory but research into the class has shown great variety in classes not necessarily focused on magical regeneration or restoration. Alchemy, physical or mental therapy and other forms of healing can be the focus of a class and fit perfectly well into the Healer category.

 

There’s of course a lot of overlap between the five most prominent categories, sometimes also incorporating aspects more suited to the misc-category. This is to be expected though as the category isn’t a limiter on what a class may be able to achieve, merely a categorization of its roots and fundamental purpose.
