What's Skyforge?
Skyforge is a free-to-play massively multiplayer online role-playing game. Unlike most RPGs you will notice quite quickly that here is a lot different than in World of Warcraft.

Of course you can always play only one at the same time - but out of combat can by your will. At the beginning of the game you already have access to three different classes - Paladin, Lightbinder and Cryomancer. Access to ten additional classes (Archer, Berserker, kineticis Necromancer, Shadow Master Gunner, Sorcerer, monk, alchemist and Ritter).
Atlas of progress
The Atlas of progress is the talent tree of Skyforge. Here can buy for your character, develop it and also unlock new classes for your character during the game your new skills.
You can find the "nodes" mentioned skills etc. with the currency "sparks" - this you gain by completing quests, as loot from enemies or exiting adventures. There are three different varieties of sparks:
