Made a Knight of the Blazing Sun, did the first two Tome Unlocks for the Bitter Rivals event, and killed a few git-faces. Good times overall.
Tomorrow we will be bringing you the massive and long-anticipated Patch 1.2, which heralds the arrival of the Choppa and Slayer careers, kicks off the the Bitter Rivals live event content (March 3 – 10), new items, over 500 bug fixes, extensive career balancing, and much more!
1.2 will be going live Tuesday, 3/3. All North American servers will be brought down at 7:00 AM EST with Oceanic servers to follow at 9:00 AM EST. We expect all servers to be back up and running by 1:00 PM EST.
As always stay tuned to the Herald for the latest news and updates and continue reading for the 1.2 Patch Notes…WAAAGH!!!
Most extensive patch notes I’ve ever seen, too much to even list off a few. Even trying to copy+paste the full notes into this post caused Firefox to crash, so just hit up the links below!
I realize I’m not exactly on the cutting edge with this news, but I honestly wasn’t sold until I saw the NYC Comic-Con demonstration of the classes in action. I’ll definitely be reactivating my WAR subscription when Orc Choppas and Dwarf Slayers drop into the live game. They sound amazingly fun to play with their berserker combat mechanic and play style, not to mention the Dwarf Slayer’s top-notch art design. I’d have to give the nudge to the Slayer on the principle of style alone, because well, the Orc Choppa just looks like a Black Orc dual wielding.
Watch these videos from NY Comic-Con and be sold:
NYC Comic-Con 09: Call To Arms Walkthrough Part 1 (Dwarf Slayer)
NYC Comic-Con o9: Call To Arms Walkthrough Part 2 (Orc Choppa)
Both classes will be rolled out as part of the “Night of Murder” ongoing live event, specifically in the “Bitter Rivals” portion of the event. Be sure to check back here when those patches start to roll out, I’ll be sure to be checking them out and reporting back.
