It should be noted that job skills are based on your character’s genre so not all jobs are available for both genres.

The sound that will accompany your journey is also well-tied together, featuring an extended music library from various genres. Involving an expanded player base and a strong community, Ragnarok Online is one of the most successful MMORPGs and is destined to keep you great company.
