Vocation Promotion

Overview
A promotion is an upgrade for your character. It can be purchased from King Tibianus III of Thais, Queen Eloise of Carlin, Emperor Kruzak of Kazordoon or the Grand Vizier Ishebad of Ankrahmun.

Cost and Requirements
In order to receive a promotion, the charater must, first of all, be level 20 or higher. Secondly, only Premium Accounts can receive a promotion. Finally, it will cost 20,000 gp to purchase the promotion when you are ready.

New Name
The first benefit of a character promotion, is that you will receive a new name for your vocation. Druids will become Elder Druids, Sorcerers will become Master Sorcerers, Knights will become Elite Knights, and Paladins will become Royal Paladins.

Reduced Death Penalty
A very valuable benefit of a promotion is the reduction in the Death penalty. Instead of losing 10% of your Experience points, you will only lose 7%. The loss of skills and magic level are also reduced. Unlike Blessings, this benefit will be effective as long as you have the promoted character.

Soul Points
For promoted charaters, Soul Points will regenerate eight times faster than unpromoted characters. They will regenerate one soul point every 15 seconds, instead of one soul point every 2 minutes.

Mana and Hitpoints
Full article is Regeneration.

The following is a comparison of Hitpoint and Mana regeneration before and after a promotion for different vocations:

New Spells
Each vocation has one spell that requires a promotion before they can learn it. These spells can only be learned from Eremo by visiting him on his island near Edron and Cormaya.
