MU Online 2nd to 3rd Class Quest – Full Guide
The 3rd class change is the big one. Three stages, 22,000,000 Zen, two instanced maps and a boss fight — and at the end you unlock the Master Skill Tree.
The NPCs You’ll Meet
Rendered from the game client so you know exactly who to look for.

Elbeland — gives the quest

Hero status at 220 — a prerequisite

Noria — item combination
Requirements
| Requirement | Value |
|---|---|
| Starting level | 380 (final stages need 400) |
| Quest NPC | Apostle Devin — Crywolf (228, 48) |
| Prerequisite | Hero Status — except Magic Gladiator, Dark Lord, Rage Fighter and Grow Lancer, who have none |
| Total Zen | 22,000,000 (5M + 7M + 10M) |
| Total stat points | +70 |
Older servers: on pre-Season 6 clients Devin stands in Devias (182, 27) instead of Crywolf.
Stage 1 – Prove Your Strength
Level 380, 5,000,000 Zen. Collect three trophies:
| Item | Drops from | Map | Mob Lv |
|---|---|---|---|
| Death-beam Knight Flame | Death Beam Knight | Tarkan | 93 |
| Hell-Miner Horn | Hell Maine | Aida | 98 |
| Dark Phoenix Feather | Phoenix of Darkness | Icarus | 108 |

Tarkan · Lv 93

Aida · Lv 98

Icarus · Lv 108
The three trophies they drop — 10% each:

from Death Beam Knight

from Hell Maine

from Phoenix of Darkness
All three drop at 10% — far kinder than the earlier quests. Set MU Helper auto-pickup to Flame, Horn and Feather.
Reward: +20 stat points.
Stage 2 – Infiltrate the Barracks of Balgass
Level 400, 7,000,000 Zen. Pay the Werewolf Guardsman in Crywolf to enter Balgass' Barracks, then kill 20 each of three monsters:
| Monster | Level | Kills needed |
|---|---|---|
| Balram (Trainee Soldier) | 117 | 20 |
| Death Spirit (Trainee Soldier) | 118 | 20 |
| Soram (Trainee Soldier) | 119 | 20 |

Lv 117 · kill 20

Lv 118 · kill 20

Lv 119 · kill 20
You pay the entry fee every time you enter, so try to finish in one run. Kills count for every partied member who has the quest active — going in as a group is much faster.
Reward: +20 stat points.
Stage 3 – Into the Realm of Darkness

Level 400, 10,000,000 Zen. Inside the Barracks, find the Gatekeeper at (120, 168) and enter Balgass' Refuge.
| Target | Detail |
|---|---|
| Dark Elf (Trainee Soldier) | Level 128 · 1,000,000 HP · kill 1 |
| Her mechanic | Stuns every 5 seconds for 3 seconds — you will spend much of the fight unable to act. |
| Respawn | Roughly 3 hours if she has already been killed. |
Bring a party. The stun makes soloing her miserable, and with 1.5 million HP a single character takes a long time. If she is not up when you arrive, you are waiting for the respawn timer.
Reward: +30 stat points, your class evolution, and the Master Skill Tree.
Barracks of Balgass – Map and Monsters
The Barracks of Balgass is the instanced map used by stage 2 of the 3rd class quest. It is reached from Crywolf by paying the Werewolf Guardsman, and it holds three Trainee Soldier monsters — the only ones that count toward your quest.
| Monster | Level | HP | Defense | Damage | Kills |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Balram (Trainee Soldier) | 117 | 75,000 | 480 | 550–650 | 20 |
| Death Spirit (Trainee Soldier) | 118 | 85,000 | 490 | 580–680 | 20 |
| Soram (Trainee Soldier) | 119 | 90,000 | 500 | 600–700 | 20 |
Note the (Trainee Soldier) suffix. Ordinary Balram and Soram exist elsewhere in the game at much higher levels — level 132 and 134 with 140,000 and 164,000 HP — and killing those gives you no quest credit. Check the name before you commit to a pull.
Getting to the Refuge of Balgass
The Refuge of Balgass (Balgass' Resting Place) is a second map beyond the Barracks, used by stage 3. You do not re-enter from town — you go through the Barracks:
| Step | What to do |
|---|---|
| 1 | Enter the Barracks of Balgass from Crywolf via the Werewolf Guardsman. |
| 2 | Cross to the Gatekeeper NPC at (120, 168). |
| 3 | Click him to move into the Refuge of Balgass. |
| 4 | Kill Dark Elf (Trainee Soldier) — one kill completes the stage. |
| Boss | Level | HP | Defense | Damage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dark Elf (Trainee Soldier) | 128 | 1,000,000 | 640 | 800–900 |
Her damage is modest for the level — the difficulty is entirely the 1 million HP pool combined with her stun. Expect a long fight and bring a party.
HP and damage figures are taken from live server files. Private servers commonly adjust these, so treat them as the standard baseline rather than a guarantee.

FAQ
What level is the 3rd class quest in MU Online?
It starts at level 380 with Apostle Devin in Crywolf (228, 48). The last two stages need level 400.
How much Zen does the 3rd class change cost?
22,000,000 Zen total — 5 million, then 7 million, then 10 million. The Barracks entry fee is charged again on every re-entry.
How do I beat the Dark Elf?
Bring a party. She has 1,000,000 HP and stuns for 3 seconds every 5 seconds, so a solo kill is extremely slow. If she has already been killed, she respawns after roughly 3 hours.
What does the 3rd class change unlock?
+70 stat points across the three stages, your 3rd class evolution, and the Master Skill Tree.
