I was blindsided with the inability to gain further experience at level 10 or change my job, as in my eagerness to explore and having died from a nightmare beast right off the bat I had respawned out in the field and had somehow missed an entire line of quests in the city. After two frustrating days chasing after information on the forums and asking in world chat, a kind soul took pity on my newbie pathos and told me where to find the quest. It was pretty obvious that I was the not the only fool sitting on my thumbs trying to figure it out.
I did not get my character to level 23 where the Possession Beast System came into play. This is essentially an "Epic" skill in that the quest to obtain the skills are epic in proportion. These beasts are not related to your character's class but have separate skills and equipment, which means that a healer, for example, can harness the power of a melee beast for short periods of time. Players can have three "beasts" equipped and these skills are important in being able to deal with the different combat situations a player could encounter, especially in PvP combat. Happily enough, additional "beasts" can be created from pieces of Possession Beasts dropped from mobs and these pieces are tradable.
