The Shai can fool enemy players by ‘Playing Dead’ but is also a very effective counter to other stealthy foes. Her unique class skills further offer new gameplay and tactical options. This is further emphasized by the fact that the Shai is the only class to start at ‘professional’ levels in the Alchemy and Gathering life skills.ĭue to her small stature, the Shai prefers to ride smaller mounts such as the Donkey on her adventures. Using her Boomerang and a variety of skills focused on both evading danger and aiding her friends, the Shai is quite unique compared to other classes. Perhaps the most exciting reveal was the 18th new character class. The ‘Shai’ is a mischievous halfling from the forest near Florin, which lies north-east of Calpheon.
