CRPG.ru informs us that they have posted a NWN: Shadows of Undrentide interview with Darcy Pajak (Assistant Producer, FloodGate Entertainment) and Tom Ohle (Communications Associate, BioWare). Here's some info on one of the prestige classes, the Harper Scout:
CRPG.RU: One of the new prestige classes is the Harper Scout. What abilities does it offer, and what characters would be most interested in obtaining it?
Darcy: The Harper is just one of the five new prestige classes we are adding for Shadows of Undrentide. The other prestige classes are the Assassin, the Blackguard (an evil Paladin), the Shadowdancer (magic-using rogue and spy), and the Arcane Archer (use magic to enhance their archery skills). All of these classes have feats exclusive to them. For example, the Harper will gain the ability to gain extra lore, better saving throws, and better attacks against certain monsters. They will also gain the ability to cast spells once they reach a high enough level. The Harper class is interwoven into the Forgotten Realms mythology, and fans of the Harpers will enjoy the opportunity to play as one of these mysterious guardians. For those people unfamiliar with the Forgotten Realms, the Harper is a great prestige class for a Bard or Rogue to choose, but is available to all classes who meet the requirements. |
