New Classes Coming to Runes of
Magic
Frogster Introduces the Two new
Elf classes: Wardens and Druids
With the coming release of the
second chapter of Runes of Magic, ‘The Elven Prophecy,’ the secretive Elves will
appear for the first time as a playable race in the world of Taborea. Today
Frogster announced the two new Elf classes, the Warden and Druid, which will be
playable when the new content goes live.
Both classes are defined by their
close connection with nature, which in turn has a direct influence on the Elves’
special abilities. Thus, the Wardens have the ability to call upon the power of
nature spirits and can connect with woodland plants which strengthen them with
the power of the forest. They therefore always fight side by side with a
companion of plant origin which supports the Warden. Thanks to his companion,
the Warden is highly adaptable in the most diverse of combat situations.
In contrast, the Druid’s abilities
are at first glance, similar to those of the human Mage, but they are, however,
not restricted to just destructive magical powers. They possess a multitude of
attack methods and healing spells. A particularly unique strength they have is
the ability to harness ‘Nature’s Power.’ The Druid collects power in his body
during combat and this then brings about special effects which cause many
abilities to be strengthened. Furthermore, Druids have versatile healing,
support and combat a magic as well as the ability to manipulate various
elements.
Both Elf classes have numerous
skills which define them not only as dangerous adversaries, but also as useful
group members. For example, the Warden can cast thorny vines around opponents,
which deliver physical damage each second. The Druid in a group situation can
raise the speed of attack for group members for a given period of time.
