Transitioning to Advanced Classes

Once you reach level 5, your character must journey to the capital city of their realm to seek out their class trainer and transition to their chosen advanced class. This rite of passage is a significant moment for every player, marking the beginning of a specialized path with new abilities, skills, and roles in the realm's ongoing battles.

  • Locate Your Class Trainer:
    Class trainers can be found in the capital city, residing in areas that reflect the nature of their class.
  • Speak to Your Trainer to Advance:
    Simply speaking to your class trainer in the capital city will allow you to advance to your chosen advanced class.

Embrace Your Destiny: Transitioning from a base class to an advanced class is a pivotal moment in your DAoC journey on Blackthorn. It signifies your character's growth and readiness to face greater challenges and participate in the epic realm vs. realm battles.
