Dual Blade is a dual-wielding class that was released on February 25, 2010 in KoreaMS. Dual Blade is not a Hero class; it is considered the third branch of the Adventurer job, Thief. In KoreaMS, Dual Blades were only available to be created from February 25, 2010 to May 9, 2010. However, GlobalMS will not have a limited time period to create a Dual Blade. Unlike with Cygnus Knights, Aran and Evan, an extra character creation slot is not given with the release of Dual Blade.

Dual Bladers start off the same as Adventurers, on Maple Island. They use kataras (blades) in one hand and daggers in the other. The Katara is a weapon type specific to the Dual Blade job. Dual Bladers have six distinct stages, though they still have four job advancements, like traditional Adventurers (see table below). The hideout of Dual Blade (Secret Flower Garden) is found in Kerning City.
