MOST COMMON GAME CLASSES
Rogue: These are the assassins of the game. They move with stealth and speed, killing enemies with quickly. They do however have basic defense and offense.
Mage: These are the magic users in the game. They deal high damage if not the highest damage in-game. They however have a really poor defense and should stay as far away from the monsters as possible.
Knight: These characters are the tanks of all games, meaning they are at the forefront of battle. This is because of their high defense. Their damage is fairly high but not as high as that of a mage/ magician.

Priest/ acolyte: These characters are the healers of the games. They give buffs to the other players or themselves, which are skills that enhance different attributes. They have very poor defense and low offense.

Hybrid class: This class of characters usually has the ability to heal themselves and others though they are not healers and they also have very good defense making them the ultimate class in games.
Ranger: These are distance attackers. They usually have a high offense but poor defense though it is better than that of a priest and mage.
