High Elves - starting view (The Blighted Isle)
Date: 09/16/2008
This is a starter view in Elves starting area - The Blighted Isle.
First quest
Date: 09/16/2008
And it is time to get first quest :) The quest givers are nicely marked, even on minimap and global map (if you are close enough to them).
Starting village
Date: 09/16/2008
This is the Village where we start. It is very nice and crowded. On the right side of the screen we can see Quest Tracker with the quest I've just got. Another nice idea from WoW :)
Distant city
Date: 09/16/2008
This distant city, or city towers looks very promising. Maybe I will get there at some point.
Tome of Knowledge
Date: 09/16/2008
This is the wellknown feature of WAR - Tome of Knowledge. It is very nice idea to gather all Lore and related information in one place. Also the bestiary, achievements, quest and a lot more info is placed there. WoW shall have something like this with no doubts.
Distant City Towers
Date: 09/16/2008
And this is the second view of that distant city shown on other screenshot. Those towers looks very nice and a probably they are kind of entrance to the city (there is bridge as well).
High Tower
Date: 09/16/2008
As we start near the tower in the village - it is nice to look at it's height.
First Kill and Bestiary Unlock
Date: 09/16/2008
And here we have first mob kill for a first quest. Killing a monster also unlocked it's data in the bestiary (Tome of Knowledge) where we can read more about it.
First Loot
Date: 09/16/2008
And here we have first loot from killed monster. Items are colored like in WoW - gray / white / green etc, depending on their quality and rarity.
NPC Meeting
Date: 09/16/2008
The environment is alive.
NPC Prayers
Date: 09/16/2008
There are a lot of NPC's and they do have their own businesses.
Wood
Date: 09/16/2008
And we are in the wood. They are really nice and have great feeling.
In a Party
Date: 09/16/2008
As we wanted to set up an guild (KotE) we've created my first party with other friends.
Meeting With Friends
Date: 09/16/2008
And we met in human city to set up our own guild.
KotE Is Back
Date: 09/16/2008
And KotE is back again. Cheers.
Crypt in the Wood
Date: 09/16/2008
I love such a findings. Very climatic.
Wood Again
Date: 09/16/2008
And the wood again. Nice. It is totally different that woods in WoW.
Monument and Towers
Date: 09/16/2008
Very nice view.
Wood's Sprites
Date: 09/16/2008
Some mobs in another foggy wood.
Enemy NPC Camp
Date: 09/16/2008
Just a some quest survivors rescue awaits me.
First Public Quest
Date: 09/16/2008
While venturing we entered into area of the Public Quest. This kind of quest allows everyone who is in the arena to participate in fight and get the rewards depending on their commitment. The nice thing here is that no pre-organizning like raid is needed. You just enter and fight :)
Public Quest Finished
Date: 09/16/2008
And the boss is killed. As I've entered to the are just by passing by and shots only few arrows towards boss - no loot for me this time as my effort was no high enough.
Public Quest Again
Date: 09/16/2008
So we start it again, this time from beginning :)
Public Quest Boss Again
Date: 09/16/2008
And we have boss again. I must admit that fighting such as boss is like PvE stuff in WoW. You need to have tank to generate aggro on boss, have some healers to heal tank and party and have DPS who wounds boss.
Water
Date: 09/16/2008
Water looks very nice.
NPC's Slain Dragon
Date: 09/16/2008
The War is everywhere, this dragon was slain by NPC's after some nice fight. Do they have their own Public Quests ?
High Elves Outpost
Date: 09/16/2008
And I've found another Elves outpost, there are a lot of similar places around.
Elvish Architecture
Date: 09/16/2008
Those buildings looks very neat.
Elvish Outpost 2
Date: 09/16/2008
And another outpost.
RvR Scenario
Date: 09/16/2008
And this is small screen from RvR scenario (more to come). This kind of place is like a Battleground in WoW - it is instanced, and all players who have signed to fight in it are teleported there once both groups are full. The goals are typical in this one - take control over 3 strategic locations or get 500 frags.
High Elves Outpost 3
Date: 09/16/2008
And we have another outpost, this time in the middle of the forest.
Nice Towers
Date: 09/16/2008
Bah, those towers look very. I need to venture there, and to get inside to finish my quest.
First City - Adunei 1
Date: 09/16/2008
This is first city I've found. It is quite small but looks very nice. There are a lot of NPC's - trainers, vendors and others. On the right side of screen you see my 1st profession - Cultivation. Seeding my own herbs for Alchemy is very nice idea :)
Adunei 2
Date: 09/16/2008
Yea, nice looks.
River
Date: 09/16/2008
And the water again, this time it's a river.
