## Changing Classes

Players can experience other classes once they reach level 50 (Lv. 50), complete all Expertise Quests, and submit a Class Change request. The first Class Change for each Spirit Bender is free but subsequent changes will require a Class Change Card which can be purchased in the Jade or Spirit Stone Stores.

## Skills

Each Class has three different Mastery paths. Players can choose to specialize in a single Mastery or spec in multiple Masteries once. Certain skills, including skills across different paths, can be matched together to create new effects.

* Upgrades

Skills can be upgraded by consuming Skill Points and Skill Point investments can be freely reset. A Spirit Bender's Skill Point Cap (SPC) will be naturally raised as they level up and players can also feed Spirit Benders Kun Souls to raise their SPC to a certain limit.

* Masteries

Each Spirit Bender has three Mastery paths to choose from and each path is unlocked by completing its corresponding Trail Quest. Upon specing six skills under a single Mastery, players will also unlock its corresponding Mastery effect.
