NPC Professions

Merchants

Merchants sell and buy various items in exchange of gold. Any type of merchant will buy any item, for the same price. There is usually one of each type of merchant in villages; towns and cities may have two, each selling different items for a different range of character levels.

Any merchant can also repair all the items in a player's inventory.

Blacksmith

Sells heavy armor and shields. They provide armor, mainly for knights, but also some items for barbarians.

Merchant

Sells assorted weapons and armors for all classes. Doesn't have much variety, but sometimes good gear can be found.

Tailor

Sells cloth and leather armor. There are two types, although they are both marked simply as 'Tailor' in-game: mage tailors sell tunics, hats and gloves for mages, and warrior/archer tailors sell breastplates, leggings, pauldrons, gauntlets and helms for warriors and archers. Knights however, will usually buy armor from a Blacksmith instead.

Weaponsmith

Sells weapons for warriors. They typically sell only one specific kind (piercing, slashing, blunt), and only for one subclass (barbarian, knight), and so each town or city will have at least two weaponsmiths.

Woodworker

Sells short bows, long bows, and arrows for archers.

Enchanter

Sells staves for mages.

Premium Merchants

Sell premium content (which can't be sold back). However, premium content can be now bought using a special button on the interface, so there is no longer a need to go to these merchants for this.

They will also rent out horses, for a period of 24 hours, for 10,000 gold.

Alchemist

They can be found inside towns, near their cauldrons.

Farrier

They can be found outside towns, at the stables.

Military

Guard

Guards protect strategic locations, like forts, castles, cities, roads and gates. Guards will attack any realm enemy that gets too close, and chase them for a while. They have access to skills if a fort is upgraded and the guards of a fort do considerable damage.

Elite Guard

Elite Guards are found only in cities and strategic inner realm locations. They are higher leveled than guards, but share the same function.

Guard Captain

The Guard Captain is obtained using a level 4 fort upgrade. They have a massively higher amount of health, wield two handed weapons in one hand and a shield in another, have a number of Area of Effect as well as instant damage spells and do considerably higher damage than normal guards.

General

They provide various useful services to players of the realm.

Arena Guardian

There are two in each realm, one inside and one outside the arena. Teleports characters in and out the colliseum.

Clan Notary

There is one in the capital's main hall. Allows groups of players to create clans.

Teleporter

Teleports characters trough gates. There are two pairs in each realm. Two to help players get from the starting zone, to inner realm. And another two to help players get from the inner realm, to the war zone.
