1048 Ranks, Stats and Their Meaning 2

289 stat points, and the basic class started with 7 points, one in each field. This accounted for more than 99% of the player base. Only 1% would managed to luck into a Hidden Class, which was why it had been so revered. 

Don't forget, before this whole Class Up bullshit, Hidden Classes were what set the elites apart from the norm. Draco's Semi-Epic Avenger Class had played a huge part in him becoming a powerhouse at Rank 6, and so had Eva's Semi-Epic Shadow Assassin Class. 

Despite being so powerful, Hidden Classes also started with the same amount of points. It was just that - if you remember - one needed to allocate their points in a certain way to receive a Hidden Class. 

And even then, there was the whole <Optimal > thing where if you allocated it further in a specific way, you could get a Class with no limits on skills and spells. However, you needed one extra stat point from any source, in this timeline Draco's had been Richmond's potion.
