[Reunegade]

My story is better

[Whirlzap]

If you're bit good at writing then this contest is for you, prize is not high, but genuine.

This contest has four categories for now. All you have to do is write small good to read articles about PL, AL, DL, SL. There will be only one prize for each game article and that would be 300-500k depending quality of the articles, if you can impress me, expect higher price.

Point should be noted

1> These articles should not be in-depth rather in simple form, considering you're writing it for the peoples who don't play these game, just want a rough overview.

2> Few screen shots to explain things not necessary though. Don't just screen shot the logo or very common things.

3> Anything you post here should be written by you not copied from elsewhere.

4> If you get the prize, you must not use that particular story including the images anywhere else.

5> All prizes will be in PL gold form.

6>No need to hurry, take your time.

7> No bound though, 800-1500 words would be perfect.

8> There should be heading, sub headings etc. You can use color for headings only.

If you want any kinda negotiation or suggestion, let me know.

Also there may be few more terms that I can't remember atm.

There's no restriction on entries, any single person may win all the prizes i.e whooping 1.2-2M.

If the entries are not that standard I'm looking for, then, no one will get the prize.

Guys, it's obvious what he's asking you to write about.
There is a direct hint in his signature.

Oh, and about this part...

If the entries are not that standard I'm looking for, then, no one will get the prize.

He's expecting a whole dramatic epic written in cursive, guys. Fairy tales won't cut it for the bes burd.

Once upon a time there was game called Pocket Legends I decided to try it out. After a couple weeks I got hooked due to the best bird in the game, Waug, he tought me how to hide, buff, blast, spam and much more. They call him the best because he can afford a swift elite bow set. Thanks to him I get so many free kills. You should try it out someday ill help you level up so you can get free kills too.

Pocket Legends From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pocket Legends is an iOS and Android mobile 3D MMO developed by Spacetime Studios (STS). It has variously been described as the first cross-platform, mobile 3D MMO.


Gameplay

Pocket Legends is a level-based CORPG (Co-Operative Role-Playing Game) similar in design to PC MMO Diablo II for Dungeon crawl gameplay and traditional side-quests found in other MMOs. [2] Each level is chosen from a central hub menu of currently hot-joinable games hosted by other players or an option to host a newly created, player mission. Each mission consists of an instanced level that can hold from between 1-5 players simultaneously, for solo or cooperative play online. Each mission contains several sub-levels designed around a common theme within the lore and world-background story of the Fantasy World Of Alterra, all hosted by a single server with multiple versions of levels (5 player limit) and social area zones, called Townes (25 player limit), running concurrently. Standard MMO features include: Global Chat, Friend List and Trading of virtual items. [3]

Co-Operative Story Mode

Is a RPG Player vs Environment (PvE) Level-Clearing: system. Players (avatars) form cooperative teams involving the primary objectives of clearing levels of AI-controlled monsters, collecting item drops and finding treasure chests for gold coins. Players can advance their skill abilities and equipment to aid them exploring the world of Arterra either through inter-connected portals or using the menu-system of hot-joinable games currently in progress. Advances in players experiences points (xp) leads to raising levels and gaining access to more challenging campaigns and end of level boss monsters where greater emphasis on teamplay and timing of use of combat skills becomes necessary.

Quests: Players can talk to Notable Non-Playable Characters (NPC's) and accept Quests to follow the game's story. This side content to the main PvE mode of Level-Clearing, includes a total of 213 unique quests for completing and involve such tasks as kill, fetch and find and rescue quests taken by finding friendly NPC's quest-givers and accepting their challenges in return for rewards such as items and gold coins. Different parts of the land of Arterra are linked by portals and sign-posts to create a connected world for exploration as well as "dungeon-runs". [4]

Competitive Player vs Player

Player vs Player (PvP) is an instanced game, separate from PvE except that the same player characters and statistical builds are used in both game modes. Due to level differences, two popular forms of PvP are "Endgame PvP" for maximum level players and "Twinking" for characters at maximum level within their respective level ranges. Player goals are to improve their PvP statistics by improving their "kills/deaths ratios" and to improve their PvP ability in both 1v1 and group formats. Competitions and tournaments are organized and player-run on the STS Forums.

Arena PvP involves two teams of players of either 1v1 or 3v3 or 5v5, identified as either the red or blue team. Teams acquire one point per player killed on the opposite team and the first team to score ten kills wins.

Capture-The-Flag PvP involves two teams with the aim of running a flag without dropping it (being killed) across an arena to score points.

Campaigns

The main spine, which was made free during Pocket Legends' one year anniversary celebration, allows players to progress from level 1 to 76, the current level cap. Side maps, such as Wyldwood, Sandstone Caves, Croc Feud, Skeller Krunch Returns, Frozen Nightmares, and Shadow Caves are also free.

Campaign Min. Level Max. Level Forest Haven 1 13 Dark Forest 8 18 Balefort Castle 13 23 Fathom Crypts 18 28 Lost Expedition 23 33 Ancient Swamps 28 38 Alien Oasis 1 33 43 Alien Oasis 2 38 48 Alien Oasis 3 43 53 Balefort Sewers 48 58 Nuri's Hallows 52 63 Mount Fang 58 68 Humania 63 73 Blacksmoke Mountain 68 76

Classes

There are five different classes in Pocket Legends: Enchantress, Avian, Ranger, Paladin, and Ursan. Each comes with a set of twelve skills. Each skill can be upgraded up to 9 times for characters level 65 and above, and up to 6 times for characters level 64 and below, using skill points that you gain by leveling; one level is equal to one skill point. By end game, not all the skills are able to be maxed, allowing for different "builds" to be used. When an attribute point is maximized for the corresponding Archetype Classes this "Build" produces a classic triumvirate of MMO's: Ursan = Tank; Avian = DPS/Single Target; Enchantress = AOE Nuke/Healer; Ranger = Close Combat DPS; Paladin = Tank/Support. By spending points on atypical attributes a hybrid build is achieved. Additionally splitting attributes between 2 categories produces a Dual-Spec Build.

Attribute Ursan Avian Enchantress Paladin Ranger Strength Pure Warbird Pally Rhino Fox Dexterity Dex-Bear Pure Dex-Mage Rhino Fox Intelligence Int-Bear Nerdy-Birdie Pure Rhino Fox

Statistical Attributes: The above table demonstrates the core game play in Pocket Legends of stacking attribute points towards a particular statistic to maximize character statistics such as health, strength, percentage chance to dodge or hit an enemy and more that can lead to optimal "builds" enhanced by item customization (below).

Skill Combos: In addition each class can produce combinations of skills for bonus damage between two skills from the same class (small bonus), two skills from two different classes (medium bonus) and three skills from three different classes (large bonus); these are called skill "combos" and along with other combat numbers are visually displayed on screen for performance feedback for players skill use in combat.

Class Skill 1 Skill 2 Combo Name Ursan Beckon Stomp Smash Enchantress Frostbite (or any ice proc) Firestorm Hot Flash Avian Shattering Scream Blast Shot Cruel Blast Palladin Charge!! Redemption Juiced Ranger Rabid Bite Hamstring Slam

Items

The Item Rarity Index as follows, from most common to rarest: Grey (Trash), White (Common), Orange (Uncommon), Green (Rare), Purple (Epic), Pink (Legendary), Dark Purple (Elite). Certain items are more rare than their color suggests because they have been discontinued. Examples are certain holiday items obtained in holiday maps only available once a year. There is also a Light Blue rarity for vanity items, which replace the appearance of your standard gear. There are also newly added elite weapons which are a dark purple color

In addition, there are item sets. These offer exclusive set bonuses to increase player stats and can be identified on other characters by sparkles emitting from their body. End game dungeons (levels 50-66) holds the bulk of items sets in the game.

Pricing

The Pocket Legends application is both free to download and play. The maps which compose the "main spine" of content, which allows progression from level 1 to maximum level, is free. Some additional, premium content ranging from extra maps to character upgrades/adjustments and vanities are purchased through the use of Platinum. Platinum is the premium, in game credit used by developer Spacetime Studios to facilitate these transactions. Platinum purchase is not mandatory, however to successfully compete with top players it is almost necessary to spend large amounts of platinum on elixirs. In addition to purchasing Platinum credits, free Platinum may be earned through third party service provider.
