Armed with poisons, daggers, and the ability to shift into the realm of shadow, they are feared like no other. Assassins rely on deception to gain the upper hand on opponents. While they are skilled fighters, their light armor grants them little defense against the coordinated attacks of their enemies, making them unable to fight in the open for too long.

They’ve mastered the bow and laying of traps, and use both to keep their enemies from ever getting close. Their deadly accuracy and knowledge of nature allows them to use arrows to control the flow of battle. Pathfinders wear medium armor, but are light on their feet. The best defense a Pathfinder has is their ability to keep the enemy at a distance through the clever use of traps and specialized shots.

Through their endless and shamelessly expensive devotion to the craft of magic, they are able to manipulate the destructive element of fire, using it to burn and destroy their enemies. The concentration required to use such abilities forces them to often remain stationary while using their most powerful attacks. While their armor is enchanted to protect against their own flame, it offers little protection against all else. Their best defense is staying away from the heart of battle and fighting from the edge.

With minimal offensive tools at their disposal, they rely on their allies to clear the field of enemies. Though they’re not direct combatants themselves, they are sturdy enough to survive in the heart of battle.

The Warden believes that protection is a greater honor than destruction, focusing their martial training on the shielding of allies. Carrying massive shields, they and those they are protecting are difficult to bring to their knees. The Warden wears heavy armor, weighing them down slightly, but offering them tremendous protection.

I usually don't touch MOBA games, but this one looks pretty interesting.
okay, another MOBA? why...
[QUOTE=Orki;37747587]okay, another MOBA? why...[/QUOTE] Because MOBA games are amongst the most popular games played online, it'd be retarded for developers to not try and get a slice of the cake.
I've played it and its not to great, better off just playing an MMO.
For some reason this reminds me of Fury. Which was fucking awesome.
I dunno why you guys think this is a MOBA; those kinds of games tend to have towers and creeps and the buying of items during matches. Not to be a pigeon-holer or anything, but this game seems to be more like a class-based magical Unreal Tournament than a DotA-styled game. Nonetheless this game looks interesting, and I greatly anticipate whatever things they intend to do with this game.
