A preview of Dark Age of Camelot: Shrouded Isles has been posted at Gamespot. As usual, we serve you an excerpt:
Shrouded Isles will not only feature a new playable race for each of Dark Age of Camelot's three realms, but it will also have two new player classes for each realm (for a total of six). In Albion, you will be able to play as either a reaver or a necromancer. The reaver class is based on the fighter base class. The iconnu, Briton, and Saracen races can become reavers and will be able to wear medium armor and use Shrouded Isles' new "flexible weapon" class, which will include whips, flails, and morningstars, as well as limited combat magic granted to them by the dark lord Arawn. These same three races may also choose to play as disciples, a new base class that leads to the advanced necromancer profession. Necromancers are bizarre characters that not only summon undead creatures such as zombies and skeletons to do their bidding, but also channel all their magic through these undead vessels. When necromancers summon an undead minion, they themselves become insubstantial shades, and their undead wards are the ones that cast the necromancer's spells, which can drain the essence from an enemy and transfer it into the necromancer's pool of available spell power. |
