Legend of Ares

RookRJ · 05-14-2006, 01:56 PM

I'm gonna check this one out.

http://legendofares.netgame.com/

It's free, low hardware requirements and looks like it's pretty decent (for a free, low-spec game).

Downloading it now. Will post my in-game name later on today.

Tell us how it is after you try it out.

Game is pretty decent considering that it requires only 128 MB of RAM to run and is in open beta.

I'll be playing this till I get my hands on AoC. Afterall it's free.

Despite the fact that it has some... "weird" issues (Hagios knows what I am talking about

) the game didn't crash on me even once. The game is also completely skill based, no need to worry about stats.

If any of you feel like giving it a try, this is where I am at:

Server: Poseidon
Faction: Alliance
Character: Radaman (fire priest)

P.S.: TB, can you move this thread to the MMORPG forum please? Posted on wrong forum again...

Got to level 23, but I still can't figure out how to actually enchant my items.

I have several scrolls and stones, but can't actually make it happen.

I guess you have to talk to a specific NPC to do it.

I had found the guy, but i couldn't actually drop my weapons and armor into the slots. I think I figured it out, I didn't have items with (1) or (2) in the names.

FYI the scrolls of destruction/protection are nice and drop fairly often from the Cyclones. You put those into your toolbar and fire them off like a special, your inventory will open up and you can click on the item you wish to buff. Don't go over +3 though! You might loose your item!

I think I am level 29 now, not a bad game, but things are pretty much leveling out though, getting hard to find a really good grind area with good drops. The only place I can find is a PvP dungeon and after getting load ganked a few times as soon as you go in, well... it is a big turn off.

Yeah the scrolls of protection/destruction are nice. I have only found +1 scrolls so far, I believe there are +2 or better. Even though you might lose the item when trying to upgrade it, you can "resurrect it" afterwards at a certain npc.

Healing in the game is useless, imo... you have like a 1 sec cooldown on potions AND the healing spell is weak. So now I am focusing on fire spells.

I am still level 18 though... busy week...

I'll catch up on the leveling tomorrow and maybe we can meet ingame during the weekend.
