First Step Character

It is very important, which nation you are going to choose when you start because depending on what main character + mercenaries/generals/heroes you have, it'll greatly change your efficiency in the game and your play style.

Please also note that sexe of the character you choose is also to take into account as once promoted (reach lvl 150 and pass promotion quest), your character will have its own unique skill and specialties.

You can always change the sexe and the nationality with cash items but if you do not spend real currency as the required items are quite expensive (15 USD per item), you will need a lot of in-game currency to be able to buy them. (refer to Cash item)

Korea
Male: The korean male is best suited for semi-automatic hunting. He is dexterity based character. Starting with a korean character (both male and female) might not be the best option due to the problem of Korea not having a remarquable Damage Dealer/Hitter compared to the other countries. However, the korean male is able to use the Meteor as weapon (no other characters can equip it). [New Meteors] can cast the skill [Tornado], which can be considered as an alternate solution to the [Viper Staff] which is hard to find a seller and quite expensive for new players.

Female: The korean female is best suited for route-trading. She is strength based character.
