Four heroes on one account
The server is still closed while we test. But one big piece is done: hero selection and classes.
When you log in, the world won't open right away. First you land in the Glade of Winds, where your heroes stand. Spin the camera around and pick who you want to play.

One account holds up to four heroes, each with its own name. When you create one, you pick a class: Swordsman, Archer, Assassin, or Mage. You can't change the class later, so decide up front; if you want a different fighting style, make a second hero. You can switch heroes from inside the game: the pause menu has a "Switch hero" button, as long as you're not in combat.
Weapons on your character
Your weapon is visible on your hero. Out of combat, swords, staves and bows hang on your back, a dagger sits on your hip, and dual blades on both hips. Once a fight starts, your hero draws the weapon on their own, and the first hit doesn't wait for the animation.
Archers won't have to carry arrows. The bow fires without them.
Each class has its own skills, and we're still polishing them, so no details yet. What we already know about classes is in the classes guide. We'll announce the server opening here and on our channels.
