Destiny in Kingdom of Amalur: Reckoning is just a new name to the old character class concept which is typical in any RPG game. To explain it further, we prepared this Kingdoms of Amalur Reckoning Destiny Builds guide.
The difference, however is that unlike many RPG games, Kingdom of Amalur allows you to shift between the these classes in no time so that you can get maximum out of your attributes.
