    Default Arcane Legends - Playing the Dev version while the servers are down. Mage info!

    Ok, since the live servers are currently down as I write this (for more on that please see this post) I thought I'd give you a closer look at Arcane Legends. I asked in the forum chatbox (which you need to be logged into the forum to view) which class to play and most said "Mage" or "crazy little blue guy" or similar, so here we go.

    To get started, here is a screenshot of my Mage with his little turtle pet, Guapo hanging out with Cedric of the Watch and his Dragon pet.

    I'll be posting more shortly. To jump to the next developer post click on the little STS circle icon with the arrow in the upper right corner

    Someone in chat asked, "Who's Gustav" referring to the text in the upper right of the screenshot. That's the fly out notification for my currently selected quest. Tapping that icon in the upper right takes you to a menu where you can access your quests, goals and alerts. Very handy!

    There is a big emphasis in story in Arcane Legends Don't let the quick quest text that is displayed in that screenshot fool you.

    Wait Sam. Do the pets have set names or are they actually nameable?

    Most likely. There will be pet happiness from what I've read in articles.

    Pets will probably be name able, as the game evolves around pets. If not at release, we should be able to name pets.

    I know you guys will have a lot of questions, so just to set expectations, I won't be able to answer everything. Thanks in advance for your understanding


    Ok, so I continued on my adventure and make it to level 2. Whee! So now that I leveled up, I have a skill point to spend, just like in our other games. The skill system is a pretty cool on in Arcane Legends and I'll spill the beans a bit about it.

    Here you see the skill page for the Mage. This page has changed several times as we've tinkered with presentation over the course of Alpha and our internal Beta. So, I suspect that it might change again before release.

    What you see here are the 8 different skills that a lvl 2 Mage has access to spend their points in. The cool thing about each skill is that it has 5 different ranks of advancement. Currently, none of the ranks have dependencies. So, rather than being a skill tree, where you have to learn the early skills before you get to the later skills, each different attribute can be increased independently. Pretty cool!
