Dragoon

Front-line melee warrior. No ranged attacks beyond the basic Ethyr skills. Guardian (heavy) armour, spear.

• Affinity: Erda is essential; then Health, Defence and elemental resistance
• Role: endures heavy hits and strikes back; with high-defence gear and a Mystic behind them, a reliable boss tank
• Gear: the first Diplo Armor at level 60 changes their role in a squad
• Good to know: forgiving for new players, and no class matches a late-game Dragoon’s Health pool

Class change

Starts around level 60; you must be level 75 to finish it.

1. Take the quest from Ziola in Pokari and teleport to Gallio, then speak to the Lord of the Well beneath it.
2. Collect Rough Compass, Hidden Atlas and Magnetic Needle — click the green monster names in the quest text to route to them. Return to the Lord of the Well.
3. Fly beneath Metallon Lowland to the frozen lake and dig at the marked spot; you are teleported back.
4. Transform into the two monsters he names, one after the other (cards come from Pokari traders or the monsters themselves).
5. Kill 300 Cyclopean Scouts, 900 Camtavian Smokeshells and 1500 Hairy Pink Rhinos, then return to him and to Ziola.
6. Take the teleport quest, speak to Jenas Wun, kill Aughorn Kobolds and repeat 5 times.
7. See Jenas Wun again, fly to Dracocide Peak, kill 50 Cyclopean Fishmongers and hand in — done.

• The quest is dark green, under Ethyr Quests in your quest window (Ctrl+Q).
• Finishing it gives you the level 75 armour and weapon set.
• To change subclass later, use a Topaz Disk (Cash Shop) at the Reincarnation NPC in Gallio. Changing class without one loses all Spirit spent on skills.

Subclasses

• Guardian — Defence and protection: absorbs enormous damage and raises Resistances. For tanking, not duelling.
• Vanguard — Defence traded for aggression: stuns, slows and a 360° area attack, built for PvP.
