Progression

A menu opened up; it listed the classes I could change to.

{Choose one of the following classes to advance to.}

  --> [Swordsman]

  --> [Magus]

  --> [Protector]

[Neophyte] --> [Druid]

  --> [Thief]

  --> [Archer]

The class I wanted was the last one, The archer class. The long-range bow and knife welding class that wore light armor.

Clicking on the class. On my character profile my class changed from neophyte to archer. My level dropped from ten to one, and then two messages appeared in front of me.

{Received [Forest Hunter's Set]}

{Choose one of the following:}

  - [Short bow]

  - [Long bow]

I chose the shorter, lighter, and faster firing [short bow]. This starting bow was a e made of a light wood that only required [E] rank weapon proficiency.

Weapon proficiencies are a stat that limits what weapons a player could use. Proficiency was listed as a letter from E to A, S and then M rank. To increase proficiency, one only needed to kill monsters. Proficiencies was meant to prevent players from using too strong of gear early on.

I turned to Xuelian and gave her a thumb up.
