Ragnarok Online is set to add a new job class with the update "Druid — Chosen by the World Tree," launching on April 7, 2026 (Tuesday) after the regular maintenance window.
The game currently offers 11 job class lines, and the Druid will become the 12th. Only humans chosen by the World Tree can become Druids, and the class revolves around wielding powerful magic in battle. What sets the Druid apart is its ability to channel that magical energy into the body to transform into an animal — making physical combat an option as well. The class offers flexibility across multiple battle styles.
