Ah, bowmen. The highest damaging class once you're around level 50+. Bowman are severely underrated, causing a lot of people to not pick them. However this is one of my personal favorite classes. Although I still haven't got around to creating one :P Remember, this is YOUR story. None of us can pick a class for you. It's all about personal preferences.

THIEF

Fast attacking speed

Overall, a fast character :P

Thieves are my all-time favorite class, along with many other people. There speed, damage, and overall sexyness as a class makes them a very popular choice. However, I DO DO DO NOT reccomend a thief as a first character. They require many potions, and mesos for equipment. Remember, this is YOUR story. None of us can pick a class for you. It's all about personal preferences.
