Interview With Adam Davidson On Lineage II's New Expansion |
Ó
After being launched in the market on October, 2003, Lineage 2:The Chaotic Chronicles have gained massive popularity, reporting 1.5 million subscribers worldwide in September 2004. In the advent of yet another expansion, MMORPG.com sat down with Lineage 2 producer Adam Davidson and got some info about Chronicle 5: Oath of Blood. Although Davidson claims that Chronicle 4 remains their largest Chronicle, the new expansion boasts of better features like class balancing (Mana Burn type spells are primarily intended for use in PvP) and clan improvements. Also, a revitalized multiple systems and an addition of new lands, new castles (Rune and Schuttgart), new contestable clan halls, and new monsters that appeal not only to new players but also to veterans of the game.
Oath of Blood is focused more on clan systems. Clan reputation can now be earned through Clan Academy, Clan Warfare, Clan Hall Battles and Clan Quests. New and low level players will benefit more from the Clan Academy as it improves solo playability in lower level areas. The expansion also features changes in the environment and brand new weather effects such as snow.
Also, players will be up against each other finding the magnificent yet elusive Demon Sword Zariche as there's only one per server. On the issue of someone "camping" the weapon and logging out indefinitely, the developers have solved this problem by putting a timer on the Zariche that continues even when the player is logged off. So, once the timer runs out, the player loses the Demon Sword Zariche and is put back, up for grabs in the circulation.
With all these exciting features, we can't wait to get our hands on Chronicle 5: Oath of Blood.
