The Helper
- The Helper has a dog that stands by him in every fight. He distracts enemies, attacks them, or helps you up when you are down. Additionally, your companion can howl, granting you and your teammates passive buffs.
The Hunter
- The Hunter is a class that focuses on precise gameplay. You can take down any enemy at long distances with your weapons. High damage and good reconnaissance are your motto, as you can mark nearby enemies for yourself and your teammates to see through walls and land critical hits.
The Doctor

The Daredevil

Should you be mortally wounded, you can return to the fight and show your enemies that you are not easily defeated.
The Gunslinger
- The Gunslinger is the master of firearms. He has skills that drastically reduce his reload rate, allowing you to deal more damage with your weapons. Additionally, you are a pro when it comes to bullet efficiency.
