Worthplaying has scooped up a preview of Everquest Online Adventures: Frontiers, the first expansion pack for the PS2 version of EQ. Seems like SOE really can't get enough of bringing out expansions, but anyway, here's a snip:
SOE also introduced a new playable race, as well as a new class. The new playable race is the ogres, large and sometimes ugly looking creatures who are very powerful and have strength that can rival the mightiest troll or warrior. It is good to see that the ogres are back because they can withstand a beating and make excellent tanks. The new class is the alchemist class, which creates potions of all types through chemicals or other means. This is the first time that I have seen alchemy given its own class, as alchemy is usually a skill that one tries to improve with experience. I can’t wait to see what this character class will be able to make, perhaps a potion that is as fast as Selo’s Accelerando … the possibilities are endless. |
