Ragnarok Online 2: Legend of the Second

Aside from simply selecting a class, players can also choose a profession from Chef, Alchemist, Artisan or Blacksmith. Each job specializes in crafting a specific type of items which will be beneficial to the players themselves or to trade with other players. To increase their level in a specific job, players would need to gain Job Experience. In order to gain Job Experience, one would need to constantly craft based on recipes of that job or mine/gather materials. To get the recipes players would need to talk to the respective Job NPC.

In addition to the job system, there is also a newly introduced Dual-Life System in which characters can take upon a secondary role. These roles offer unique abilities that help in expanding the capabilities of a specific character.

Of all the classes brought back to life from the original Ragnarok Online, only the Merchant class was not included. The new Dual-Life System allows character development in a whole new light. Instead of using a Merchant to set up shops and vend, players are enabled, with a new function, to set up their characters as NPCs (non-playable characters) while they are offline, rendering their services (healing, crafting, tailoring etc.) to active players to make a profit (such as equipment crafting).

In a recent interview with Gravity Co., Ltd. CTO Jin-soo Jun, it was revealed that the card system will indeed be making a comeback, but this time the cards will be attached to the character instead of individual items. The reason for this change is that in Ragnarok Online many rare items were often overshadowed by low-level items socketed with powerful cards. This made the inherent abilities in rare items much less relevant, and it proved to be a limiting factor when making new content.[6] Furthermore, many players had trouble obtaining such cards because they were incredibly rare. To counter these issues, cards will be implemented in ranks of bronze, silver, and gold. Therefore, a gold card will be difficult to obtain, whereas the bronze card will be relatively common. This new system has then been modified in the "Limited Edition Test" so that instead of bronze, silver, and gold cards, there will be regular and special cards. By combining up to five different cards at the card master, players will be rewarded with a special card which will further increase its stats. Once a player has the maximum amount of cards equipped, he or she must destroy one of the equipped cards to replace it with a new one. However, replacing a special card with a new one will result in the card being sent back to the inventory instead.

The pet system from Ragnarok Online will also be making a comeback. In Ragnarok Online 2 players are required to collect the Monster DNA in order to make them as a pet, The Pets will assist players with attack and buff or de-buff.[7]
