  So umm.. I plan to try the game out in open beta and I know nearly nothing of it.. could someone enlighten me as to how to play and what kind of abilitites(real ones) I need to master the game.
  
  Plan to play the sorceress.

  
  
  it's basically a generic style 3D MMORPG with 4 classes who branch out into 8 subclasses
  You have quests and dungeons
  the dungeons are instanced so its like Vindictus.
  The combat is real time so you have to be actively moving and using skills
  
  4 Classes/characters are warriors, sorceress, archers, and clerics
  
  Warriors have melee attacks and use physical attack and crit
  This link here describes all the classes well, but don't take it too seriously. All the classes perform well.

  Sorceress tips
  1. Max Blink, Aerial Evasion, and Escape because you're gonna be fragile
  2. Put one point in counter spell as a wakeup attack
  
  General tip
  1. Focus on one tree, leftover points should be saved for class advancement
  2. Do not try to make everything. Max whatever scales well.

  Huh? You guys using the download link I gave MrMs?
  http://download2.nexon.net/Game/DragonNest/FullVersion/Downloader/DragonNestSetupV02.exe
  
  It should work, I just tested right now. Plus a bunch of people from /v/ are downloading it, too.
  The official page doesn't have a working link yet, though.
  
  ps: its just the CB client which can supposedly be used to update to OB, not the OB client itself
  better than nothing.

  Just to be sure, you guys are really sure this is the open beta client?

  No, Open Beta client hasn't been released yet and will only when the server open.
  
  Enjoy downloading the client with 99999 other people + lag if you wish to wait for it to come up, though.

  Close beta client will self-update to open beta then?

  Supposedly, as indicated from a very reliable source that works for Nexon, yes.
  It still is a good risk to take, since if anything you just download the OB client anyway.

  Hmm..
  Well back on topic.
  
  what would be the class that offer the highest control of the battlefield's flow?

  highest control..
  the cat would say either Paladins, Elementalists, Sharpshooters, Priests (healing durr. it's the only reason you would get accepted into parties) and Mystiqs.
  
  Paladins: Tank, absorbs dmg.
  Priests: heal while providing either damage or utility relics
  Elementalists: Freeze enemies for survival and super burn dmg with fire
  Mystiq: Huge AoE dmg and Time skills that support the party
  Sharpshooters: They do so much dmg.

  Yeah there not up yet. But you can download that,
  
  and then just run a patch, when it comes up at like 12pm pst.
