South Park: The Stick of Truth – Class Guide

South Park: The Stick of Truth includes four classes — Warrior, Mage, Thief and Jew — to choose from, each with their own unique powers. The game doesn’t let you see these abilities before you make your choice and since these PP-powered actions are the only defining difference between classes, we figured they are an important factor in deciding how you want to play.
