Chapter 1084: Imbalanced Class Assignments

Two hours later, Karl had notes on all the fighting members of the Alliance at Totem Rank or higher, and a better grasp of just how lopsided the System’s assignment of classes was.

Even before the adventurers chose their specialties.

There were only six tanks among the sixty-four Totems who had been present for the party, and fourteen healers.

The other forty-four members consisted of thirty warriors, eight Rogues and a few of each other class. The imbalance was huge, even worse than it was at the Academy with the young Elites.

According to the Totems, it was even worse at the Overlord Rank, as many of the Totems had been handpicked to fill roles on the teams. Those at lower Ranks were mostly filler to the Guilds here, and while they contributed heavily to the Alliance, they filled vacancies with mass numbers, and not targeted recruitment.

Of the estimated two hundred Overlords in the Alliance, there were over a hundred and seventy Warrior and Rogue class members, with a coven of Druids who had come to study under Deve making up almost all their healers.

Deve looked over Karl’s shoulder as he stared at the notes he had made, and then patted him gently on the shoulder.

"We simply don’t have the resources to pull mages to us. Any Guild Alliance can do the same runs we do, and the lack of competition was enough to bring in the Totems for our teams, but the Overlords prefer to study under Guilds who have more Mages at the top." The Druid sighed.

"Well, perhaps I can do something to help that balance. I have a Dana Mage with me, and she’s got some impressive skills as a former Murim Battlemage who advanced to a Mystic Blademaster.

I don’t know if she will be interested in taking on more responsibilities, but we might be able to bring in a batch of weaker mages and bring them up through the Ranks with a bit of time." Karl suggested.

Deve considered that. An Overlord Ranked mage might have the skills with an advanced class, but it would be a hard sell, when so many other Guilds had Mythic and Totem ranked Mages in their top Ranks who were actively recruiting.

"I think that you can save your Mage the trouble, unless you’re going to do something extreme and take in the outcasts and failures from other Guilds.

I know some go that way, hoping for the diamond in the rough, but there is a good reason that they were kicked from their old Guilds in the first place. Losers stay losers, and they’ll just end up chewing through resources for zero results, as their potential is trash." Deve explained.

Karl nodded. "That’s a problem everywhere. So few have an easy time advancing, and the resources to push them higher get increasingly expensive, with ever higher side effects. There is a potion that I heard of used in the past, to push someone from Commander up to Overlord in a single shot.
