Specifically, it states:"Every adventurer is a member of a class. Class broadly describes a character’s vocation, what special talents he or she possesses, and the tactics he or she is most likely to employ when exploring a dungeon, fighting monsters, or engaging in a tense negotiation""Class is the primary definition of what your character can do. It’s more than a profession; it’s your character’s calling. Class shapes the way you think about the world and interact with it and your relationship with other people and powers in the multiverse."Now let's look at definitions of vocationVocation (from Webster's Dictionary)  Full Definition of VOCATION1a :  a summons or strong inclination to a particular state or course of action; especially :  a divine call to the religious lifeb :  an entry into the priesthood or a religious order2a :  the work in which a person is employed :  occupationb :  the persons engaged in a particular occupationDefinitions of Vocation from other sourcesVocation:a strong feeling of suitability for a particular career or occupation. "not all of us have a vocation to be nurses or doctors"synonyms:    calling, life's work, mission, purpose, function;<ul style="margin-left: 20px"> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">a person's employment or main occupation, especially regarded as particularly worthy and requiring great dedication. "her vocation as a poet"</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">a trade or profession</li> </ul>Vocation:A vocation (from Latin vocātiō, meaning "a call, summons") is an occupation to which a person is specially drawn or for which she/he is suited, trained, or qualified. So given the above, the game defines class as career/occupation/trade/profession  and to which the character has a strong feeling of suitability or dedication and to which he is trained or qualified.</blockquote>
