Choose Your First Race and Class

Selection Screen

When you spawn into a new world with Fabled Roots installed, you'll see two selection screens automatically. The first lets you pick your race, the second your class. Take your time—you can change both later through the pause menu, so don't stress about a "wrong" choice.

Matching Your Playstyle

Combat-focused? Pair a Fighter class with a race that boosts melee damage. Netherian (fireball broadsword attacks) or Oakhearted (weakening hatchets) work well.

Ranged combat? Choose Archer class. Aetherian or Palehearted races complement bow gameplay.

Mining and building? Miner class gains bonus EXP from ore breaks, while Builder earns EXP from block placement. Orebringer race speeds up mining further.

Survival and exploration? Survivor class triggers Regeneration when damaged, and Scout highlights hostile mobs nearby—great for dangerous biomes.

Changing Later

Don't like your choice? Open your pause menu and look for the race/class swap option. You can experiment freely without penalty.
