Lineage II continues to expand and challenge its players
and The Kamael is the latest free download content to the world of Aden.
In its third year of release, Lineage II is a different
game from the one first launched. Tweaks are continually
being made and The Kamael is more than just a straight
content episode, it also offers changes to account management.
With this expansion, players will be able to affect
server transfers, change names and even change character genders.
At the heart of this expansion, and indeed, the title
focuses on the race, is the Kamael themselves. These
are warriors with an affinity toward dark magic. The
other five races, in the lore of the game, were believed
to have been created by the gods, but the Kamael are
believed to have been created by the giants for the
purpose of combat. As such, only one class is available,
and that is the fighter class, with different skills trees
for each gender.
The male Kamael can go Berserker, Soul Breaker, Doombringer
and Soul Hound, while the female travels the path to Arbalester,
Trickster, as well as the Soul Breaker and Soul Hound classes.
Of course, the race will feature a new look, having one wing
extending from their left shoulder blade, but other aesthetics
are in place, including a few new cosmetic features.
There are three new land areas: Hellbound, Isle of Souls
and the Isle of Prayer. Hellbound area is not as simple as
a zone you get to walk into and start beating on things.
It is the highest level area in the game right now, and
players have to contribute certain items server wide to
open the gates. No one person can get in. There is a
finite amount of time on the gate, but you can extend
the amount of time you are there through doing quests.
The Isle of Souls is the birthplace of the Kamael
and the Isle of Prayer is a level 70-plus zone with a raid boss.
Of course, there will be new weapons and armor designs,
all very nicely rendered.
Fortress battles are also getting a bit of a change.
Clans can conquer fortresses on a daily basis and siege
structures are available 24/7.
NCsoft conducted a tour through some of the new areas for
the media on Friday, giving players a look at some of the
new areas, quest bosses and such. The game plays out with
the default point-and-click interface. But the zones visited
were truly geared for teams and raids. Plus players will be
challenged to work with disparate races for skill traits that
are particular to those races. For example, in one zone, an
underwater raid instanced, the Kamael female skill of detecting
a trap in order to advance. Of course, boss mobs wait on the
other side of the door, but that is why a group is needed.
The Kamael has some nice surprises along the way, like the skill
of final form for the Kamael. The race has a dark side and can
collect souls, and once 20 are collected, they undergo a transformation
to another form, with different attack skills.
Lineage II is continuing to advance and grow, and the dev team is listening to players
input to implement some of the necessary changes. The new developments brought
to the fore with this expansion look to create a better player experience on several fronts.
