"Your body may be in the new world, but your blood is of the old." - Gilbert Granado
The Impetus to Explore
War had cast its vile shadow across the nations of Orpesia. Illier and Vespanola were locked in struggle with Opoluto, while rich Targa and mighty Bristia obstinately maintained their neutrality. Opoluto fared poorly, its forces outnumbered and ill-equipped. The armies of Illier and Vespanola won battle after battle, and threatened the main cities with invasion. Also, Targa's stiff tariffs on trade routes with Katai further drained Opoluto's coffers. To save his nation from the jaws of defeat, the king of Opoluto called upon his loyal subjects to brave the Dark Sea to the west....
5 classes to choose from
Elementalist Elementalists harness the powers of ice, fire, and lightning to cast offensive magic spells, channeling those powers through the bracelets they wear. This class is arguably the premiere damage dealer in the new world,
Fighter This character class is strong and tough, able to both take and dole out punishment while going toe to toe with enemies. The fighter gains access to some of the best armor in the game and deals a significant amount of damage using a wide variety of weapons.
Musketeer The Musketeer is one of the most imposing character classes in Sword 2. This class is a top-tier damage dealer and primarily relies on pistols and rifles. While musketeers are deadly marksmen, they can do more than shoot enemies from a distance. The musketeer can fight with bare fists, smash enemies with a rifle stock, fire poisonous bullets, slash and stab with a bayonet, and even fire a blinding AOE debuff. This class also possesses a special ability, Concentrate, which allows it to fire upon enemies with great accuracy. The musketeer is as deadly as it is stylish, and few adventurers swagger more in the new world.
Scout The Scout is an amazing character class, arguably the most versatile adventurer in the game. This class is far from being the limited sort of healer common to other MMORPGs. It has the ability to heal from any stance and by taking advantage of a variety of stances, the scout can resuscitate allies, cast empowering buffs, install devastating traps, fight with a single dagger while evading attacks, or wield two daggers for a dominating attack of its own. Scouts are rugged survivors, valuable allies in any squad, and lethal damage dealers when they choose to be.
Wizard The wizard is a powerful magic-using class that specializes in AoE (area-of-effect) damage spells, curses, and buffs. This class can levitate, employ telekinetic powers, shield team members from many types of attacks, as well as use a lethal array of curses. The wizard can cast an offensive buff on allies that reflects damage back onto attackers, a significant ability in a dangerous new world with so many monsters attacking from all sides. A balanced magic user, casting both offensive and defensive spells, the wizard is a mighty opponent and a valuable class to include in any team.
