evilkoal Posted May 31, 2008 Author Share Posted May 31, 2008 you can go to the official website www.ageofconan.com and there is some stuff on the game there :) check like gamestop too, they usually have good reviews. all the different types of weapons do different fatalities. fire spells do the burn fatality, swords/axes do the choppy ones, and blunt weapons do the smashy fatalities. i can do fire, and sword fatalities, so i pwn :) i'll post a screenie soon, i havent been able to do anything because i have been doing extra packets because apparently i didnt have my diploma :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus Wolfe Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 I'm also looking forward to screen shots of your mount, which will be either, a mammoth, a rhinoceros or a horse, but that's way down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chesto Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 evil... how easy is it to link up with companions/teammates? Is it all: text message, then follow instructions and meet up by that hollow tree in such and such? Or... what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonlissla Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 I also had two questions about the game. The first one is the same thing Chesto asked, and the second one is about the combat system. What's so special about the combat system? Is it like in The Witcher or something similar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilkoal Posted June 1, 2008 Author Share Posted June 1, 2008 it is quite easy to group up with people. though, you have to be within a certain range to keep getting xp from what they kill, like most other games. all you have to do is /invite i think, but i have never been the one to start the groups, my cousin always does that haha :) i'll check it out when i get on next (it will be a few days, i have to finish my crap so i can get my diploma... speaking of which i shouldnt even be on here!) i have never played the witcher, so i couldnt say if it was like it... but i can tell you it is different than any other game i have played.the mobs have defensive spots that switch around, and you do more damage when you hit spots that are less defended :) you have 3 basic attack moves, then there are combos. you can attack left, right, and overhead. the shield markers could be like this: (( MOB ) or this ^ ( MOB ) basically, they can stack in any direction, up to 3 shields. you do more damage when you do the attack corresponding to the spot that has the least ammount of shields. when they have a shield on a spot, you will do about 15% less damage for the first shield, then like 35% for two shields, then about 85% less damage for all shields. so you can see why it is important to pay attention in this game :)then you have combos, and they basically are your special attacks, but you have to do one or two moves before you can set off your special attacks. like say i wanted to do my pillars of fire (or whatever) spell, i'd have to attack up, then to the right, then my spell would charge and go off causing mass fire damage to the enemies (i cant tell if it is a cone shape in front of me, or if it is an aoe.) then you have most damage spells, which have a cone shaped damage radius, out to so many feet. some spells just damage the target as long as they are within so many feet, and only the target. some spells are AOE attacks. then you have knockbacks and all those special effects and whatnot. it is simple, but complicated at the same time if you really think about it lol. i love it personally, it keeps me awake (unlike most other MMO's) at 6 AM because i actually have to pay attention to what im doing and i lose track of everything else hahaha.
