The Chronicles of Spellborn News - Quarterstone Arena
Posted by Keith Cross on Sep 17, 2007 | 0 comments in our forums
The Chronicles of Spellborn official site has been updated with another installment of their Gamedesign Journal series. This week, the article provides an overview of the game's Arena system.
I expect a lot of players to be leveling towards this end-game feature. Access to the Arena system is granted at level 40 via NPC's, not earlier, and only in Quarterstone. The Arena will come with a wide variety of features on release, but will receive a lot of content from future updates as well. In this journal I will handle the basics of the current features, post-release features and reveal images of two 'new' maps.
First I'll discuss the options players will have available on release. There are two distinct types of arena games that can be played; Battles and Challenges. Both can be fought on either ranked or unranked level. The difference is that Battles are matched randomly, while Challenges are specifically requested fights from players.
What options are available, how does it work?
Players can set a selection of options and preferences before starting Arena games. These options allow selecting specific maps, battle types, difficulty and availability.
