Neverwinter Unveils Oathbound Paladin

Neverwinter recently unveiled details about their upcoming class, the Oathbound Paladin. Sticking true to the image of a paladin, the Oathbound variety will be able to either be a healer or a tank depending on their Paragon Paths. This lets them take either an Oath of Protection or an Oath of Devotion, each of which gives unique passive abilities to the paladin. Their class mechanic is called Divine call and will be generated passively and whenever Encounter Powers are used. Up to three charges may be stored and players can use them to make a big impact in the heat of battle. The class will be able to taunt nearby enemies and unleash their own damage back at them. They can also give a powerful shield to themselves or to allies in order to protect them in combat. Whether tanking or healing, this class is sure to satisfy.

SWTOR Cracks Down on Exploiters

Star Wars: The Old Republic is a game that has been marred by various controversies since its release, and in-game exploits is one of the biggest ones. A recent exploit that has drawn the attention and ire of many players has finally been addressed by the staff at BioWare. This abuse (know as the Ravager's Exploit) involved farming end game content with little to no effort, adversely affecting the economy of the game. BioWare community manager Eric Musco wrote on the forums, explaining how the staff handles exploits in general and how they would handle this particular one. For the players that abused this bug, there will be a wide range of penalties that they will incur. Depending on the amount of times that the Ravager's Exploit was used, punishments can range from a warning to full and permanent account suspension. This is much welcome news as many players were complaining about the current state of the game with the markets being greatly warped by the exploit.

Irvine, Calif., January 28, 2014— KOG Games, a leading developer and publisher of popular free-to-play action MMORPGs, today announces the launch of the shadowy new Job path for Elesis: Dark Knight.

The people of Elder have been suffering oppression under the tyrannical reign of the sinister Lord Wally. Exploiting the ultimate power of the magical El, his blackhearted control over every man, woman and child has been unrelenting. Elesis, the honorable Red Knight, has done everything in her power to stop him… With Luichel’s help, she’s learned that virtue exists in many forms. Elesis has learned to destroy her opponents by harnessing the very darkness they’ve cast over the land.

Unbridled Dark Power:
As the Dark Knight, Elesis has acquired powers that allow her to use her own blood to strengthen her attacks; dealing additional damage and more.

Level Boost Event:
From 1/28/15 – 2/03/15 players will be able to participate in an Elesis Level Boost event.
Players have to be level 15 to unlock the new Dark Knight Job Path mission.  However, during this event period players have the chance to permanently boost one Elesis base character to Level 35 absolutely FREE! It’s easy: Create an Elesis character, login, and while the character is in a village or resting area, they’ll be prompted by a pop-up. Click the Level Boost button in the pop-up and that’s it!
Once the level boost has been activated successfully, players will receive an exclusive Level Boost Cube containing an enhanced weapon, armor set, and more!

Visit www.elsword.com for more info and details about these Dark Knight Events, prizes and more!

Empowered by the visceral nightfall that now courses through her veins, Elesis’ very life’s blood has become a weapon. With blade in hand, she slices her foes to ribbons and uses her body to cast horrific sanguine atrocities at her foes powerful enough to send Wally’s troops screaming.
Becoming the Dark Knight now seems to be the perfect way to exact revenge.… Darkness is Coming!

Play Elsword. Play your Manga.
