Past Fate News

[h3]Faction System Remade

Start as a Mercenary and increase your reputation among a chosen faction. Completing various tasks to one faction will lower the reputation of the other. This will allow the players to choose between factions, or stay completely neutral to both!

Class System remade

Your class is based on your weapon and armor you choose to use. Weapons have their own special abilities and weapon arts. For example if you want to play as a tank, you should equip your character with a shield and heavy armor with defensive stat points. There are many combinations that you can create to play how you want to build your character.[/h3]



Game Improvements and changes summary:

• Remaded Faction system.
  
• Remaded Class system.
  
• Swimming has been added to the game. Players are now able to swim and dive!
  
• All players start now with a Newharbor Teleport. This teleport allows players to teleport back to Newharbor if they get stuck for example.
  
• Major and minor bug fixes
  

[h3]On this video you can see how the first 15-minutes of playing Past Fate are once you start the game with new character. [/h3]

[h3]Magic and witchcraft has found its place in the hands of the mercenary. Players are now able to wield Staves and Wands, casting elemental spells or if they come across with darker powers even raise the dead from their graves.

For players to unleash the powers within the magical weapons they need to craft runes. Rune Crafting is the newest crafting adaptation for Past Fate allowing players to craft different runes from Fire Runes to Death Runes. Rune Crafting is possibly to be changed later on.

Lets not forget that cooking was also added to Past Fate so every hungry traveler should visit the cooking fires and make some good potato stew, if they have gathered the ingredients of course! [/h3]



Game Improvements and changes summary:

• Magic weapons have been added with magic skills (Fireball, Summon Undead etc.)
