Rappelz Epic VI (Prologue): Navislamia Review
Rappelz has always been a good, interesting and entertaining MMORPG. With numerous updates, it's even becoming better. This review is about the long waited newest bigger update: Epic VI : Navislamia.
The new mobs and bosses of Epic VI are mostly for higher level players. Since for example the 6 new bosses are >120level. Also numerous added quests for lvl120 characters. The respawn times for the high level bosses is very little. After just a party finishes the boss and begins to recharge mana and health, the boss spawns there again. The grinding is of course easier with smaller respawn times, which is good. There has been changes for lower leveled players too. Trainee Island has been extended and added with new quests, new dungeon and a deeper storyline.
New graphical improvements aren't so noticeable. Actually a game doesn't have to have superior graphics if it's overall a good game. The new UI is handy, since it has most of the skills on sight all the time now. But now the pet doesn't have it's own skillbar and the player has to use his own slots to use the pets skills, which might be hard to get used to, if all the slots have been full for a long time before.
All the classes are now balanced even more. Skill cooldowns has been changed and attributes like p.def and p.atk have been altered so that small PvP matches are possible to be won with good experience and skills of the player, not just the gear and abilities the character has. Maybe some day Rappelz will get a decent PvP -path for players who seek for it.
New update always brings new items and pets. This time the pets are: The agile Wolf, the deadly Harpy, and the feral Gnoll. Each of these pets have it's unique abilities and skills. They just don't look cool. Wolf is good for evasive combat, Harpy is an archer -like pet, that uses ranged attacks and Gnoll is the ultimate tank. It's one of the rarest pets in Rappelz now. Although most of the people always want tanking pets, so that alternative characters leveling would be easier, the two other pets have their own brickbats and bouquets.
Overall the new update is good, although it is based on higher levels (+120level). Up from rank3 the game is constant grinding of dungeons that might get boring after a while, and so higher level characters might not be so much as expected. Next update should definitely be something for the middle leveled (r3-r6).
Next the players of Rappelz will start waiting for Epic VII after the boundaries on Navislamia has been explored.
