Choose your destiny

How about a Lineage 2 class guide for new players ? New to the game and feel like you’d wanna know what classes suit you better ? Well here’s the thing. You will first have to choose from 6 races: Humans, Elfs, Dark Elfs, Orcs, Dwarfs and Kamael. Classes from different races can have similar skills, but usually have different play styles. There are too many things to say about this so you can get more info in Lineage 2 guides.Here’s the introduction.

Humans are ‘well balanced’ in everything they can do. This is a race that takes a little bit from other races, but doesn’t take anything to the extreme. The result is that you’ll have a toon (character) that can fight well in most situations – but doesn’t excel in any (by itself). Humans usually do very well in groups, and in fact they are ment to do so even from their birth. They do not have too many skills that help them exping solo, and have a very specialized class tree.

Most ‘popular’ Human classes : Gladiator, Treasure Hunter, Hawkeye, Sorcerer, Bishop, Prophet. My personal favourite is the Paladin but there are generally not too many of them around.

Elfs are the ‘Speedy Gonzales’ race. They run fast, attack fast and sometimes die fast ^^. They are more specialized from their human counterparts and excel in some situations. The elven scouts rely on their critical chance – which means they will land a critical hit more often. On the other hand, elven mages are the fastest spell casters in the game.

Most popular classes : Swordsinger, Spellsinger, Elven Elder.

Dark elfs is a race that’s gonna hit you hard. They rely on the power of their attacks to kill the enemy and also use dark magic to cripple him. Fighters have a strong critical attack – they will hit you very hard on a crit. They can sometimes land a one shot kill on slightly lower levels. Mages are slow casters, but have very strong spells.

Most popular : Bladedancer, Abyss Walker, Phantom Ranger, Spellhowler.

Orcs are … well they’re orcs. I’m sure you’ve seen the foul orcs in Lord of The Rings. They are strong, but hard to play. Hard means tricky. You need quite some skills to play this race the way it’s meant to be played.

Dwarfes are money makers. They don’t excel in pretty much anything except in the skills they have to make money.

Kamael are the angelic race. They dark magic users with a lot of ambushing skills. They can get on top of you fast or criple you with one of their traps. Kamael classes depend on the sex you choose.
