League of Angels: Craft Master Event Available

Have you ever imagined what Indiana Jones would look like if he stepped into the magical world of League of Angels? Would you like to join Lara Croft into her exotic journeys around the world? Now you can! With Craft Master, League of Angels’ newest event, you have a chance to be part of an archaeological expedition to three mysterious and undiscovered sites: The Cloud Palace, the Dusk Prison and the Grand Library. Use the valuable crystals you extract during the expeditions and exchange them for origin crystals or Philosopher’s stones. Like a real archaeologist, make sure to wisely use your energy and attempts, and carefully choose the site you wish to explore. Being top 20 in your server will give you an additional Dragon Tamer card and the Legendary Origin Crystal. This gives you another good reason to work harder on your character and battle rating, and to compete with other players in the server to improve your server rank!

Besidse Craft Master, you can also enjoy this week’s hot events such as rose rankings where you can win the new bat wings, or the Candy Transfer Saga where you can win mysterious candy. LoA likes to bring to its fans and players new and challenging events and features, and constantly updates the game. With Christmas and New Year approaching, and League of Angels just being announced as the best new 2014 Facebook game, we can’t call the party off! Plenty of special events and brand new theme game pages are waiting for you on the official website. Also, new angels, fashion, heroes in the holiday spirit and brand new play modes will be added to the game in the next following weeks. Make sure to stay tuned and enjoy all the upcoming activities!

Knight’s Fable Introduces Group Fighting Systems

Knight's Fable

In knight’s Fable, the development team always wish to create more social atmosphere in the game. Your friends are your most vital allies in many functions and events. You can invite your friends to help with different obstacles : killing strong mobs, defeating the Fierce World Boss, and much more. You and your server mates can devote beautiful roses to each other. Imagine your screen flooded with red roses when you send out 99 of them to your friends.

The Cross-Server Arena (CSA) is one of the most popular and attractive parts of Knight’s Fable. Players from different servers fight with or against each other on the same battlefield. Glory belongs to the strongest and more cooperative teams. To make this section of the game more appealing and interactive, we developed the “Group Fighting” in CSA. In this new mode, players experience a similar excitement as in the individual mode and show more initiative during the process. The player can create his own unique room and invite good friends. He can also be a friendly mentor by creating a room for low level players and lead them to victory on the CSA battlefield. The Cross-Server Arena will become one of the best places to exchange tactics and feelings, creating your very own Knight’s Fable family.

In our Knight’s Fable, you are never alone, nor will you ever be.

Camelot Unchained Introduces Class and Pathing Concepts

Mark Jacob of CityState Entertainment has just concluded a livestream revealing initial musings of their horizontal progression class system in RvR Tri-Realm Sandbox MMORPG, Camelot Unchained.

dvergrconceptstream

Although focused on the Viking realm warrior known as the Drengr, the more important reveal of the stream focused around the idea of multiple paths offering various armor, weapon and skill specializations that players can build into, master, or mix and match to diversify their build and standing in the community from others. Keeping in theme with horizontal progress, Mark also discussed a soft skill decay system that allows players to make decisions about swapping around their build, but possibly at the cost of previous mastered abilities in other paths.

The second goal of the class system revolves around the promise ensuring that choices matter, and this is best exemplified by the soul binding of weapons, requiring a player spend long periods of time and effort mastering and upgrading a weapon until that weapon is essentially as important to your build as your class and custom built skills. Thus the time you invest and money you spend paying quality crafter players to upgrade your weapon will make it a tough decision to decide to take up a new weapon to pursue another path.

As for unique concepts in the paths themselves, MJ touched upon the general four concepts currently in the works. (Editor’s Note: The path of Thor and Odin seem to have been described differently in the Stream than on actual design document. Updated article to match design document)

The Path of Thor follows a heavier armor hammer wielder capable of throwing his weapon to be a threat even at range.

The Path of Odin seems to be a threat even at range, wearing the lightest armor for fast movement across the field.

The Path of Freya promises a unique swordplay with a magical sword capable of acting intelligently as a quasi-pet. Should be quite the surprise to see where Camelot Unchained goes with this concept.

Finally The Path of Svalinn offers a dual shield that can be broken into individual shields, offering a defensive warrior ideal for holding the line.

 

For more details, be sure to check out the official post on Camelot Unchained including a link to a 22 page document outlining the full concept ideas behind the Drengr and path system.
