This page displays all the different classes and links to other pages where the abilities of each class are shown.

The team was unsatisfied with the attributes that didn't make sense as they explained in this new post. So, naturally, they decided to rework them bringing new and improved attributes that boost several factors of the heroes at once:
- Rechargetime: lowers the reload time of spells and abilities. Every point makes abilities recharge 2% faster.
- Damage: increases the damage dealt by normal attacks and by abilities. Every point makes your hero attack and abilities deal +4% damage from point 1 to point 10, +6% from point 11 to point 15, +8% from point 16 to point 20.
- Health: increases the life-points and the rate of regeneration. Every point increases your health regeneration by 0.1. Every point also increases your health by +100 hitpoints from point 1 to point 10, by +150 hitpoints from point 11 to point 15, by +200 hitpoints from point 16 to point 20.
- Experience: Enables gaining experience faster. Every point increases your experience gain by 4% from point 1 to point 10, by +6% from point 11 to point 15, by +8% from point 16 to point 20.
- Range: increases the range of sight and the range of bows. Every point increases your range by 2%. Every point also increases your vision by 4% from point 1 to point 10, by +6% from point 11 to point 15, by +8% from point 16 to point 20.
Classes[]
