These weapon proficiencies may or may not affect the job class they will choose when they reach a certain level for job change. Each of the four character classes specializes in its own weaponry.

"the Overseer of Sky" Uses axes, rods, and spears, and "The Elegant Mystic" uses gauntlets, spear and rods.

Leveling
The Hero Online leveling system is unique in that it fuses the normal leveling of other MMORPGs with the ranking of traditional martial arts, utilizing Kyu and Dan to depict levels. 1 Kyu equals one level while 1 Dan equals 10 Kyus or levels. So a character with level 2 Dan and 8 Kyu would otherwise be level 28.
