The ins and outs of Tree of Savior's class system for new players

Tree of Savior's class system is an overwhelming mountain to new players. It's easy enough to say the class system is simple, but even experienced players put considerable effort into their class, skill, and stat choices. It's really not an easy system to figure out and use effectively.

How to change your class
You have two separate levels: Your character level and your class level. Your character level affects your stat points while your class level affects your skill points as well as your class advancements.


You can advance your class once you hit class level 15. New characters will hit class level 15 at around the same time (usually a little after) they hit character level 15.


Once you hit class level 15 you will be given a prompt on the right side of your UI that says 'Advancement' which will let you choose which class you're going to advance to
Note: Once you choose the class you are advancing to you can not change your mind, even if you haven't finished the advancement quest. Choose carefully.


Starting your advancement will give you a class-specific quest. Once you've finished this quest you will change into the class you chose. This is the same way you advance throughout the game, though the quests get more difficult the higher Rank you are..

Bouncing between classes
Essentially you build your character in Tree of Savior by mix and matching classes within your primary job. You can use any skills you've put points into no matter your character's current class.


For example you'll start as a Swordsman, then can choose to go with Swordsman again (for more skills and more points to put toward Swordsman-exclusive skills) or can go with Highlander or Peltasta and still have the Swordsman skills you put points into to use.


You get 15 skill points per Circle in each class and these skill points cannot be used on skills for other classes--meaning you need to use your points carefully. Currently you can only reach Rank 7 in classes, meaning 7 total classes chosen for one character.


New classes always start at Circle 1

This is something new players seem to ask about often.

 

You can choose from any of the available class options when it's time to advance, but the first time you choose a class (no matter how many Ranks you've pushed through) you will always start at Circle 1.


For example, an Archer who is Archer C1 and Ranger C1 can choose to go either Hunter C1, Sapper C1, Quarrel Shooter C1, Archer C2, or Ranger C2 come their Rank 3 advancement.


You can bounce between any classes that are within your Rank range, but not above. For instance Archers can choose Archer C2, Quarrel Shooter C1, or Ranger C1 at their first advancement (Rank 2), but not Sapper C1 or Hunter C1 because they are Rank 3 classes.

You can see this in action using ToSBase's Skill Simulator but hopefully this explanation of Tree of Savior's class system makes things a little easier for confused new players. The game's class system is one of its biggest merits but it takes time to not only understand it but also to make an optimal build.
