I think Zezenia has come a long way in recent years, but to give players a more immersive experience, the devs could consider adding subclass promotion options that buff a few select spells, tailored for both PvP and PvM.

This would let players on older servers get small advantages when they buy a promotion, and it would also make the seasons feel more dynamic -- whether on PvP or Non-PvP servers.

The idea is that subclass promotions would be optional for players at level range 300 up to 500+ and could be obtained from an NPC using in-game premium cards (for example, 25 to 50 cards), or alternatively paying something like 100-125kk gold to NPC. It would be also a great way to burn more gold in the game.

I propose that every promotion modifies only two of the subclass' spells, giving small benefits without making it OP. Besides, each promotion could receive a unique custom outfit, so the player could buy and unlock both of their subclass promotions, gaining access to both outfits and being able to switch between pvp and pvm promotions with temple npcs.
