Jadeon – the primary ranged damage dealers in Jade Dynasty. They have low defense and high cast times which makes them vulnerable to close combat, but they are able to inflict major damage with their AoE spells.

Skysong – those belonging to these factions are responsible with healing and buffing other players. They are very useful later in the game, both in PvE and PvP.

Vim – the typical tank class with high defense and powerful blows. They lack ranged attacks.

Lupin – they are the rogues in Jade Dynasty, dealing devastating damage, but suffering from low resistance.

Modo – offensive spell casters which have a great spell arsenal. They are rather weak during first levels, but their spells make them formidable Warlocks later in game.

Balo – front line warriors with abilities that can incapacitate enemies. They rely on brute strength.

Arden – Nature affined creatures, a combination of human and animal elements, which can summon beasts and plants to assist them in battle. They are the masters of archery.

Jade Dynasty isn’t the most original game out there, having elements that have already been seen and overused. It has a rather simplistic gameplay, but offers great graphics on the other hand.
