In most MMORPGs, characters are severely limited in what abilities they can learn based on their class. In Angels Online (http://ao.igg.com), four magic and five melee classes are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to creating unique characters. Because by taking advantage of skill changes, players can customize their characters with a blend of magic and melee skills. And how to?

Here you have the guide:

Players below Level 20 can talk to a Skill Angel NPC located in each of the main cities to change skills. Level 20+ players can also change skills, but must first buy a Skill Crystal from the AO Item Mall.

Each class possesses six exclusive skills, including a battle skill and five assistant skills. The battle skill enhances a character’s abilities in battle. Assistant skills determine what types of equipment players can equip as well as offering additional abilities. Through the skill change function, players can replace one of the five assistant skills with a battle skill from another class, giving their character two battle skills at the same time.

For example, if a swordsman chooses to replace his Enhance skill with the Wizard’s Chaos skill, he will learn both swordsman melee attack skills and wizard chaos spells whenever leveling up. Thus is born a magic swordsman with abilities no average swordsman can claim.

Changing skills does come with a price. While a magic swordsman can learn various powerful spells and attack skills, his magic is not as strong that of a true wizard, and he becomes weaker in melee battles than the typical swordsman. Skill choices are also limited, so players cannot select certain combinations of skills simultaneously, such as Priest’s Life and Wizard’s Chaos.

Even within the allowed limits, choosing from among nine classes, nearly forty skills, and hundreds of spells and fighting stances offers players a myriad of possibilities. With so many choices to customize your character, the only real limitations are your preferred play styles and your imagination. Log in today to start down a path uniquely your own.
