Music is one of the important factors in gaming; it brings life to the game, sometimes giving you energy to play more. Usually you hear different genres; from instrumental to techno to rock music. But what if instead of music, you put the musician him/herself into the game. Well musicians are becoming common to MMOs nowadays, using lute or guitars as weapons, but their traditional appearance are somewhat looked medieval or Victorian. But everything will change as Atlantica Online released a new kind of musician on their latest patch.

The Minstrel is the latest mercenary to be added into Atlantica Online. What makes her different from a traditional musician from other MMOs is that instead of portraying a classic appearance, she portrays more of a modern version, making her into a badass rocker chick. Aside from her looks, she is the only mercenary that uses an instrument and also can counter a power saw user, with her Seal Power Saw Skill; she can disable any power saw user from using their magic. Aside from the Seal Power Saw, she can be healer and debuffer with the Salvation Skill and a Silencer/ Damager with the Hallucination Skill.

Acquiring the Minstrel can be attained on level 100; to start the recruitment quest; you need to find and talk to NPC Nina Paganini near the Dallas Lawless District. The quest is influenced by one of the most celebrated violinists; Niccolò Paganini. The quest story revolves around Nina Paganini, a famous virtuoso, who was banished from Italy when the townspeople feared on her incredible talent, she now resides at Dallas Lawless District, but her parents were murdered by the Machine Brook’s Gang, she needs your help in avenging her parents and removing her newfound home from violence. What makes this quest different from the previous recruitment quest is that it has a time limit in accomplishing a certain task, if you fail to finish the quest within the time limit, then you have start the quest over again.

With the new mercenary, new strategies will be unfolded, letting players reorganized their formation to make new diversities. And having a Minstrel in your formation can be really cool, as it looked like you are forming your own rock band.

I don't have a specific plan yet but I'm NEVER going to remove the Lady Knight simply because she looks good and I have an unexplained affinity for knighthood and chivalry. (Yes, call me shallow but there's no stopping me on this one).

I guess I'd consider the Minstrel...
