Runes of Magic is pleased to announce that the time for epic battles in Runes of Magic has now arrived. The introduction of Siege Wars will further expand the online world of Taborea as guilds compete against one another to capture their opponents’ castle. The upcoming content update on 11th March will see the launch of the beta phase of the new Player vs Player mode. The definitive launch of the Siege Wars will then follow with the launch of ‘Chapter III – The Elder Kingdoms’.
From the launch of Runes of Magic, guilds have been able to have their own strongholds, with building extensions and furnishings to runes of magic gold complete their homes. To launch a Siege War all you need is two guilds, two castles and one simple objective – destroy your opponent and their castle. As a part of Chapter III, the Siege Wars will include new bonuses such as increased running speed and the ability to build an arsenal of weapons including catapults, rams and arrow throwers.
To succeed guilds will need to capture energy nodes on the battlefield to provide the necessary resources for the construction of battle weapons or towers. Should a team break through the enemy’s castle walls and make it to the throne room, then the defenders will have to protect the energy crystal which is kept there. If the team should seize all of the opponents’ crystals as well as their runes of magic gold resource nodes, then the battle is won. Special rewards and titles beckon for victorious guilds.We don't know much yet about pve in RoM, but it will be for sure something like we already know in other mmo's.
Runes of Magic will feature raids and fights against boss opponents. Players will encounter mobs in instances and within the open world. Besides static dungeons, Runewaker will introduce so-called tile-based ones that change by re-generating themselves every once in a while.
We'll have diverse and unique zones, like the Wailing Mountains, Silverspring, Aslan for example. We also know some names of some dungeons as Forlor Monastery, Mystic Altar, Reliquary of Reflections or Kleeon's Temple.
What kind of questing will it be?
For the quest-system, we'll have mostly plot quests, that tell the tale of the world and the storyline. Plus, we'll have hundreds of side-quests to rom gold.
