| The website of MMORPG has released a preview of newest free-to-play MMO from YNK Interactive: Rohan Online The Basics Rohan Online: Blood Feud is a fantasy free-to-play MMORPG built atop a persistent world that is filled with hard fought battles and countless quests to embark upon. As with any modern MMORPG, you may choose to go at it alone, or journey together with friends to solidify your place among Rohan’s greatest of warriors. As you shape your identity in Rohan, you may choose to form guilds and as such, fight for the respect you and your warriors deserve. Furthermore, just this month YNK Interactive announced the addition of Township battles, which will extend the fight from PvP to guild versus guild. In addition to the in-game battles and quests, Rohan has an impressive trade center which consists of a web-based item mall and exchange market. So, let’s take a deeper look at Rohan by discussing the various classes that are available to players, the battle system, a few of the things that make Rohan an awesome MMO, and lastly we can briefly discuss the details of the Trading Center. As with any MMORPG, the warriors you command in Rohan get wiser and stronger with every monster killed and quest you complete. These individual achievements give you experience points, which are used to get your character(s) to the next level. Now, let’s talk specifically on how Rohan’s leveling system is distinct from the other MMOs you are currently familiar with. Leveling Up One thing that I noticed right off is how ‘informational’ Rohan is when it comes to how close/far you are from attaining the next levels for your characters. There are several indicators to inform you that your character is reaching the experience points thresholds to get you to the next level. And as you achieve new levels, your character’s health and magic power (mana) are of course raised. In addition to those accolades, you also acquire ability points and skill points. Ability points are dispensable for the generic attributes of your character’s such as strength and dexterity, whereas skill points are used to acquire much more specific powers and abilities. Distributing Skill Points There is certainly a method to the ‘madness’ when distributing your acquired Skill Points in Rohan. You see, every time you level up, you acquire one Skill Point. That Skill Point can be distributed on what I’ve labelled as your “Skills Matrix”, which includes all of the unique skills and abilities that your character could possibly achieve. Now depending now how you distribute those Skill Points as you acquire them will determine how well a specific skill has been mastered. On this ‘skills matrix’, certain skills lead to mastering other skills which all contribute to the uniqueness of your character. As I would imagine the possibilities are almost infinite! Before we move on to the trade center discussion, let’s briefly cover a few more distinctive characteristics of Rohan Online:Blood Feud.
What makes Rohan so different? Modes of Transportation From beasts, to bindstones, to portal stones, Rohan provides you with numerous ways to move around the continent. And much like sports cars, those mountable beasts certainly separate you from the pedestrianized crowd. Companionship Cute, cuddly, and armed with an arsenal of abilities to aid you in your quest, you can acquire pets in Rohan. This certainly puts a spin on the term “man’s best friend”, especially when they can kick in with some extra HP when you need it. Mini Games Tired of the old hack and slash? Well, Rohan’s got you covered with plenty of mini games to keep you interested. Established Economy Weapons shops, Armories, Style shops and the like are all affordable from Rohan. Want to set up a shop yourself? Put up a Kiosk and become that merchant in town with all the ‘pimped out’ gear. And while we are speaking of touting your wares, this leads me to our discussion on Rohan’s Trading Center, so let’s begin! |
