Although a little more complicated, more expensive and more time consuming than Mastering pure, Subpathing is part of what makes Darkages so unique and interesting. Check out the bottom of the page for brief descriptions on the various combinations.

What is Subpathing?

Subpathing, or Subbing is the chance to further enhance your character's abilities before becoming a master by changing your class and resetting your level to 1, your stats to 3, and your health and mana to 100. You may keep up to 19 unspent stat points.

Why would I want to start over again?

The idea behind subbing is that you will eventually have the skills and spells of two classes.
If you choose wisely you can greatly increase the effectiveness of your character and further specialize it's ability to hunt or arena.

So there's no point in mastering pure?

There are pros and cons to each. There are certain skills, spells and trinkets that only pure classes have access to. Please consider all your options before permanently dedicating yourself to a path.

Made up your mind?

Once you have made your decision you can follow the steps below to begin the subbing process.
(Or head to the Mastering page if you decided against subbing.)

Starting the Process

When you're ready to start the 24-hour subbing process visit Aoife in the Temple of Choosing.
This is the same temple you used to choose your first class many insights ago.

Click her "Class Dedication" speech option and proceed through the chat.
She will check if you have the correct health, mana and experience before taking the 10 ard ioc deum from you and sending you into a new room.

ard ioc deum drop from skeletons in Tagor lost Path, Faeries in Eastwood/Westwood, or in Kasmanium Mine.

(I recommended double checking your health and mana before attempting to enter. Aoife will take the ard ioc deums regardless of you being able to continue any further.)

In this new room there will be a single NPC. They will double check requirements one more time before allowing you to choose your new class.

After making your choice you will receive a temporary Dedication Mark on your Legend and will be told to return after 24 hours to finish the process.

Preperation time

You may use these 24 hours to finish learning any skills or spells you believe you may need in the future. You may take longer if needed. The subbing process will not complete until you return.

Ready to join your new class?

Return in 24 hours and follow the same steps to enter the room again. You will be given one last chance to change your mind before you complete your Dedication. Make sure you have learned everything you may need because there's no going back after you've changed class.
Maybe that's a little dramatic. You can learn some of your previous class skills and spells using a Learn Skill/Spell Scroll. However it will cost you 850 ($8.50) kruna each.
