Characters

Warrior

The warrior is a straight forward basic class. Warrior uses 'DC' [Destructive Charm(melee attack)] to kill the enemy. They have high HP (hit points), high AC ("Armour Class/Armour Charm" Defense from melee attacks) and have very little MP (Mana points) and low MR (Magic Resistance).

Wizard

The Wizard can be a bit tricky at first. They use magic attacks such as "Frozen Earth" or "Ice Blades". They use 'MC' [Magic Charm (Ranged Magic)] . They have a wide variety of elements to choose from and use on their opponents or monsters. Elemental weaknesses are key to wizards. They have AoE(Area Of Effect) attacks as well as mass attacks. Wizards have low HP (hit points), Extremely high MP (Mana points), High MR (Magic Resistance) but low AC (Melee Defense).

Taoist

The Taoist is a support class. Similar to a priest, the taoist can heal and bless. Healing is one very important aspect of the game. Taoists throw talismans and poison. They focus on two key elements, Holy and Dark. They can summon pets such as the 'shinsu' or 'bone familiar'. Taoists can resurrect the dead, a very useful move. Taoists are considered the hardest and most complex class to level up and boss hunt with. Taoists use 'SC' (Soul Charm), which is a balance between magic and melee attack. Still ranged the taoist can use 'SC' to increase the amount of damage and skill use. Taoists have Balanced MP (Mana points) + HP (hit points)as well as Balance MR (Magic Resistance) + AC (melee Defense). Unlike in the legend of mir 2, Taoists are a lot more powerful thanks to more useful magic and a greater durability. for example they can make themselves totally invisible using a skill at level 43. This helps them to evade monsters easily, or launch surprise attacks in the Wall wars ( guild war system < battle for a walled town/city).

The most skilled Taoist ever to play Legend of Mir 3 is generally considered to be Zman. His quick reflexes and intuitive abilities made him quite famous among the various servers of Mir.Zman cheats his way thru the game exploiting every cheat avalible it has since been discovered
