As soon as you approach the heights of level 50 in Tales of Wind, you’ll need to start planning for Promotion. This allows you to change class to a more powerful second class.
Each of the base classes in Tales of Wind include two different promotion options. These are more powerful classes that generally specialise in a specific role, like damage, healing, or tanking. Certain classes also feature new weapons to equip too.
In this guide, we’re going to detail the entire promotion process to help get you promoted as quickly as possible. We’ll detail all of the second class options and how to get them too.

At level 48, characters can start the process of Promotion. This lets you upgrade to one of two new classes, which are different for each of the base classes. These new classes are each designed to fulfil a specific role, like dealing damage, tanking, healing, and hybrid options.
The actual process of getting promoted involves completing a few quests, during which you’ll learn about the two new options, and then grinding out XP to redeem new skill points until you’ve unlocked 50 of them.
We’ll detail the entire process later in this guide. For now, here are the classes you can get promoted to.
As we mentioned earlier, each class has two different Promotion options at level 50. Here are the promotion option for each class:

You can start the process of Promotion from level 48, and it’s generally quite easy. Simply tap on Kingdom and hit Promotion, which is on the far right fo the screen.
This will initiate a series of easy quests that shouldn’t take too much time to complete. It will also let you have a taste of what it’s like to play as both of the classes if you’re yet to make a decision.
The challenge of promotion comes from earning 50 skill points. You get one per from a certain level, and can redeem XP for more skill points. This is frustrating, as it prevents you from levelling up further until you’ve collected enough skill points.
However, it doesn’t take overly long. We did all of the daily content for about two days to earn enough skill points to get promoted. So we recommend keeping up the daily content until you’re done. Just do everything in the Kingdom section first, then carry on with side quests and campaign.
