THE FINAL PATH FOR THE DRUID HAS BEEN REVEALED!



ROLE: MELEE DMG / SPELL DMG / TANK

Get more info on this HYBRID path below! I'll be adding these paths into the server now so that's it for the updates for a while. Keep checking the main page for more information on the Druid Tier 1 charms which I will be adding in their treasure area when I get everything made. Sign up on the Varlyndria forums and say hi!

Just remember folks, the more updates you see the faster this server will go live! I'm like a forest fire right now and I just can't stop. MORE TO COME!

Huge update incoming!

@Vaklain - I have some amazing ideas for the Enchanter and they are next!

@dedaoff - I'm hoping sometime in May. With how fast things are going I can see that realistically for an alpha phase.



The Cleric paths have been revealed!


ROLE: HEALER / PETS / SUPPORT


ROLE: MELEE DMG / SUPPORT


ROLE: SPELL DMG / PETS / MELEE DMG


Check out the link below for more information on these Cleric paths!

The Clerics are finished for now with their Tier 1 quests and ready for the Alpha test phase. I'll be releasing info on the Enchanter paths soon so keep checking here for updates!

Also, please sign up on the forums and tell me which path interests you on the general discussion thread I have open. I am getting feedback early to get ideas on improving the class paths or just to see which path looks appealing to a player. So far it's been a good variety of responses.

The path ideas of this server are to give players a lot of choices which makes an mmorpg more fun to play. I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks the cleric class on live or on pretty much any other server is as boring to play as watching paint dry. Let's not help the team for anything with damage, let's look at the hp bars and watch tv.. *yawns*. I've made sure the classes on Varlyndria are not "stuck" in a role and have a lot more freedom and variety. Keep in mind there might feel like a "stuck phase" when you choose a path and find out you can't be anything else without losing all of the gear you got from the one you are previously. I do it for balance reasons, but at least I'm giving players the choice of what they want to be instead of.. "you're a healer and nothing else."

When it comes to class paths like the Heretic or Battle Priest; I have basically given the cleric a change of pace from being main healer only to be more of a team booster or pure damage dealer. Keep in mind that the original spell book of the cleric is not changed in this process so they don't lose their powers to complete heal or anything like that. They are afterall still clerics but those two paths will not be anything near the healing power of the Celestial Champion which does get a pet to make the healing process a bit more fun but they will also get instant cast heals and Healing +% focus effects as well which the other paths will not, making them the ultimate healer on Varlyndria.

The more you post, the more I get excited about trying this server! I have a few questions though and I'm sorry if they've been answered somewhere else.

Will there be any donation items, upgrades, or abilities?

Can you give us a hint about what possible end-game stats players can achieve when the server is fully released? I realize this is probably a distance away still but I was wondering if it'll be like EZ for instance where your end game HP is well over 200k on tanks or more aligned with a regular server and much much less.


Thank you for the frequent updates! Your regular job must be something with web/database design because you're doing a fantastic job with gaining major interest in your server, as well as flying through these changes lol. You're quite the one non-gender-specific band!

Haha thanks for the interest and compliments! You're welcome for the updates, I wouldn't have it any other way!

Answer 1: I plan on releasing a donator option, but I don't know what the details of it will be just yet. When I do focus on that I'll
make sure it offers a lot of awesome and fun things to give players the unique feel they want.

Answer 2: The current level 75 normal enemy has 45k HP. Damage of enemies right now at level 75 are 75 to 225 which is
very doable for a group of six; which is how I designed the server. Boss enemies will of course prove to be a bigger challenge
but you're not looking at ridiculously high numbers of HP or anything. 200k would be godly on Varlyndria. I hope that answers your questions!


WTF!? GROSS BUT COOL!

Here they are. The Necromancer paths are fully revealed. I changed the color of Plaguebringer to be a lot more vibrant. It was too grey before.








CHECK THEM ALL OUT BELOW AND COME SAY HI ON THE FORUMS WHICH APPEARS TO BE GROWING LIKE A WEED NOW!

I will be away from my computer most of the night but I should have the Necromancer charms done tomorrow. If you haven't already; please stop
by the forums and say hello. Varlyndria is getting close to being ready for an alpha phase and I'm very excited as I hope many of you are as well. Please keep in mind the first alpha of the server will not have everything done.

There are plenty of things that need to be added to all of the paths, like more quests, special weapons, more clickies etc. The good thing is the paths are made and their templates are done which means it's easy as pie to add anything I wish on to them; overall making the content come out a lot faster. So, with that said I might hit everybody up with another update late tonight or sometime tomorrow.
