Subclasses (Professions)
Overview
In addition to your main class, you can learn a Subclass Profession that provides passive stat bonuses. There are 7 professions, each with up to 9 levels. Subclasses require a minimum character level, rebirth count, and specific items to unlock.
Available Professions

|---|---|---|---|
| Martial Artist | 1 | Critical Strike % | Trojan, Ninja — more crits = more burst damage |
| Warlock | 2 | Skill Critical Strike % | Fire Taoist, Archer — crits on spells and skills |
| Chi Master | 3 | Immunity % | Any class — reduces chance of being critically hit |
| Sage | 4 | Penetration % | Trojan — bypass enemy defense |
| Apothecary | 5 | Detoxication | Any class — resist poison effects from Ninjas |
| Performer | 6 | Magic + Physical Attack | Any DPS class — flat attack bonus |
| Wrangler | 9 | Max Hit Points | Warrior, any tank — raw HP increase |

Each profession has 9 levels (max level 9). Higher levels require higher character levels, rebirth counts, and specific items to promote.

Tip
Level your subclass alongside your main character. The passive bonuses are always active and compound with your gear — a level 10 Martial Artist with good gear will have noticeably higher DPS than the same character without a subclass.
