Once again: Happy New Year to all our visitors. I hope you have had fantastic celebrations and a good time (I certainly had, standing in front of the Town Hall in Vienna, looking at all those fireworks in the city and waltzing into the new year with champaign and hot wine).
Our first newsbit last year was about Warcraft 3. This year, it is about Asheron's Call 2. The latest Teaching Stone has been posted at the AC 2 Insider site by Microsoft. The Teaching Stone is something like a newbie guide, and this episode deals with how to choose a kingdom im AC2 (which is quite important in their experience system). Here's an excerpt:
You won't need to choose a Kingdom right away—you'll have plenty of time to consider your choice. In fact, the first opportunity won't come until well into your exploration of the first continent, Osteth. Before then, we encourage you to develop your characters' personal ideologies. Decide how you wish to roleplay your character before choosing the most appropriate Kingdom to join.
To join a Kingdom, find the appropriate Kingdom Shrine. These are scattered throughout the world, but the first set can be found in the vicinity of Old Cragstone. (Another set will come later, near Shoushi.) You'll need to be at least 10th-level before you can join a Kingdom. Simply double-click on the Shrine, just as you would bind to a Lifestone. When successful, you'll witness a dazzlng animation, and you'll continue forward in the service of your new Kingdom. As you continue to play, your Kingdom shrine will also act as a "stat board" for whoever has the most PK points on the server. (Characters get PK points for defeating enemies from other Kingdoms in battle. Keep reading for more details.) |
