Classes

In Crownless, your chosen class defines your hero’s abilities, stats, and overall playstyle. At the start of the game, you can choose from four core classes: Warrior, Paladin, Ranger, and Wizard. As you progress further, three additional classes become available: Rogue, Warlock, and Sorcerer.

Each class has its own strengths, weaknesses, and specializations. Leveling up classes not only enhances your own hero but also grants Guild Buffs, which benefit all characters in your account.
