Choose a thread

A new character chooses Mage or Berserker when entering the world. Each class keeps its own experience, level, milestones, specialization and rune loadout, so returning to an earlier thread resumes exactly where you left it.

Progress runs from level 1 to 50. Every class begins with a permanent passive and unlocks a new ability every ten levels. Experience comes from enemies you actually help defeat, personal boss milestones and exploration; obsolete enemy tiers gradually stop rewarding passive farming.

At level 50, return to the buildable Shrine of the Norns and choose one of three endgame paths for the current class. Each specialization replaces the five core abilities with a complete roster of its own and adds a sixth Final Thread. Mage and Berserker are the first complete threads, and more classes are already in development.

Mage

Mages carry a personal Eitr reserve from level 1 and cast through an equipped Elemental Magic or Blood Magic staff. Their core path commands Fireball, Frost Nova, Arc Lightning, Runic Ward and Fall of Ragnarok.

• []Void Mage bends distance, gravity and time through bolts, rifts, an instant blink, a public route home and Black Hole.[/]

  []Blood Mage marks prey, opens wounds, binds enemies, turns health into a barrier and bursts the damage it has prepared with Blood Harvest.[/]

  []Necromancer withers the living, raises persistent networked servants, condemns enemies to explode at death and closes with Army of the Dead.[/]

  Berserker

  Berserkers build Fury through melee damage dealt and hostile blows endured. Fury strengthens physical melee attacks and fuels two-handed techniques: Rending Blow, War Cry, Bloodstorm, Bearskin and Rage Unbound.

  []Ravager opens distinct wounds, multiplies bleeding, steals life and executes weakened prey.[/]

  []Jötunn holds ground, moves enemies, becomes immovable and breaks the earth.[/]
