A Subclass is a specialized path that a hero can take after reaching a certain level in the game. Each hero class has two possible subclasses that provide unique gameplay mechanics and abilities, allowing players to customize their playstyle.

Each hero class has two possible subclasses:

• Gladiator - Focuses on weapon mastery and throwing mechanics
• Berserker - Converts damage taken to rage, increasing damage output

• Battlemage - Enhances staff usage with special abilities
• Warlock - Gains life-draining abilities

• Assassin - Masters stealth and critical strikes
• Freerunner - Excels at mobility and dodging

• Sniper - Enhances ranged combat capabilities
• Warden - Controls terrain and allies

• Shaman - Specializes in staff combat
• Scout - Focuses on exploration and stealth

• Lich - Master of undead and dark magic
• Witchdoctor - Uses nature and healing magic

• Plague Doctor - Masters disease and healing mechanics
• Healer - Focuses purely on healing capabilities

• Warden - Controls environment and allies
• Cleric - Focuses on support and protection

• Berserker - Focuses on raw damage and fury
• Guardian - Specializes in defense and protection

• Subclasses are unlocked by reading a Tome of Mastery
• Tomes of Mastery can be found during the game, often in special rooms
• The tome will unlock the subclass for the hero's current class
• Once unlocked, the subclass is permanently available for that hero class
