Players can choose to play as one of thirteen playable characters, each with their own unique characteristics, abilities, and backstories. Players will traverse through diverse areas and villages, where they can talk to [[NPCs]] and accept quests or access the game's various shops and facilities. Players can venture into [[dungeons]] and [[Hunting Fields|fields]], where they can defeat enemies and tough bosses using attack commands and special [[skills]] to string together powerful combos.  Doing so will allow players to complete '''Epic Quests''', which unfold the [[story]] though dialogue cutscenes and sometimes rendered videos. Defeating monsters and completing [[quests]] can reward items, equipment, and ED, the main in-game [[currency]]. ED can be used to purchase various items, equipment, and services. The game servers also generally have limited-time in-game events that players can participate in to earn special rewards and benefits. Players can choose to use [[Currency#Cash|real cash currency]] to purchase exclusive goods from the [[Item Mall]]. Some of the main types of items available in the Item Mall are costume pieces and [[Character_Customization_System|customizations]], which can be purchased to dress up and customize characters to make them personalized.

Players earn experience from defeating enemies, clearing dungeons, and completing quests to level up and advance their characters. Upon reaching level 15, players can upgrade their character along a specialized [[1st Jobs|job path]], each with their own fighting style and personality, which gives access to new skills and abilities. The player is then able to [[2nd Jobs|advance]] their characters further at level 35 and unlock more powers for their class with the [[Transcendence]] system at level 70. The [[3rd Jobs|final advancement]] sits at the current level cap of level 99, unlocking the [[Force Skills|Force Skill]] system and more abilities, as well as granting access to the [[Master Class]] system upon progressing far enough into the story.
