This guide covers up to Class 4 only, because Class 5 is at lv105 which takes a lot of time to achieve. By that time, the player would have enough experience with the game to make the choice by themselves


There are 2 races in Luna Online, Human and Elf. Beside from their minor (negligible) stat difference, the reason why you would choose a race should be for their race-specific skill and class.

Reason to choose Human
- Mecenary / Gladiator class for Fighter (Very High Attack)
- Monk / Inquirer class for Mage (Able to equip Light Armor)
- Theif / Assasin class for Rogue (Stealth)
- Burning Rage buff (Increase Attack by %)

Reason to choose Elf
- Rune Knight class for Fighter (Self-Heal / Sleep / Very good Stun)
- Elemental Master for Mage (Unique Buff)
- Scout / Rune Walker for Rouge (Silence / Buff)
- Nature Shield buff (Increase Def by %)
- Elves are cute


There are many classes in Luna Online. First timers are recommended to follow direct path of class change. (i.e. the stereotype)

Human Fighter - Warrior - Mercenary - Gladiator (Full STR build)
Elf Fighter - Guard - Infantryman - Phalanx (Full VIT build)
Human/Elf Mage - Wizard - Sorcerer - Warlock (Full INT build)
Human/Elf Mage - Cleric - Priest - Bishop (Full WIS build)
Human Rogue - Ruffian - Theif - Assasin (Full DEX build)
Elf Rogue - Voyager - Archer - Ranger (Full DEX build Full STR build)

The disadvantage of going through the direct path is that the character would be too specialized and limited. For experience players, it is recommended to go hybrid.

For example
Human Fighter - Guard - Mercenary - Knight
Elf Fighter - Warrior - Infantryman - Rune Knight
Human Mage - Wizard - Monk - Bishop
Elf Mage - Wizard - Priest - Warlock
Human Rouge - Voyager - Theif - Ranger
Elf Rogue - Ruffian - Scout - Treasure Hunter
etc
etc

The possibility is endless.

Hybrid can use the skills in their current class plus the ones from their previous class without any drawback.

For example
Mage - Cleric - Sorcerer
would be able to use lv15 FireBall and lv5 FastHeal
while
Mage - Wizard - Sorcerer
would be able to use only lv15 FireBall
