⚔️ Character Class Templates
Welcome to New Hope Ultima Online! Our shard features a flexible skill-based system with no rigid class boundaries. You are free to design and customize your character within the Skill Cap (700 / 720 Points) and Stat Cap (225 / 250 Points) limits.
The progression guides below provide tested, highly effective archetype trees for new adventurers and veterans alike.
💡 Tip: Start with a Basic (700 Points) template. As your character progresses and acquires Power Scrolls (+20 Skill), evolve into one of the specialized Advanced (720 Points) branches.
