The Artisan is the second Next Run class, available in the free demo (release on October 3).
He specializes in crafting and improving items, as well as gathering resources. His key talents are Dexterity (required for Crafting) and Perception (required for Gathering). This is a class for players who prefer a thoughtful and controlled process. A true treasure for tacticians who enjoy complex multi-step strategies. Not for beginners, but for those who have already mastered the game and want to discover a completely new style of play.
Class features:
— Starts with 20 gold, a pickaxe, and random blueprints of level 1–2 items, allowing immediate crafting.
— The higher the Dexterity, the stronger items become after upgrades.
— Unlike the Warrior who rushes into battle, the Artisan first gathers blueprints, collects resources, creates and upgrades items, and only then calmly engages in fights.
— Can turn an ordinary dagger (+2 damage) into a deadly weapon (+8 damage) and clear enemies with confidence.
Weaknesses:
— Slow start: while the Warrior is already fighting, the Artisan is still preparing. This class requires patience and planning.
