Today, MMORPG.com is happy to present five new screenshots from Sword of the New World. This new set features shots of and information on the game's Wizard class.

The Wizard is an invigorating magic-using class, and specializes in AOE attacks, spells, curses, and buffs. The Wizard can levitate, employ telekinetic powers, shield team members from many types of attacks, and possesses a lethal and devastating array of curses. A great deal of variety and power is spread across the Wizard's 6 stances and 23 skills. Here are just three of them...

Take a look at the whole feature here.

Cheers,

I gotta say that the copilation of the MCC and multiple stances lends itself to a lot of customization (from the party perspective anyway) and makes for  good strategic battles in pvp. I suggest people give this game a shot at least in beta and see for themselves. Its a good and unique title, something the MMO markets needs right now.

I have to agree with you Rehmes, and I also plan to try the game when the beta start.

No doubt it is a unique title with a amazing visual.

I'm usually not so critical about games but I just have to say.. I've seen this before; back when it was called Lineage II.

No reason you can't - the IAH version was all over the forums before SotNW payed for ads.

The similarities between the two are that they are both korean games. After that they are two different beasts. Give it a try and youll see for yourself that it is nothing like L2, i played L2 for 2 yrs and i played the beta for GE. Their not even similar in art style which is saying something considering korean game tend to borropw a lot from the same art concepts.
