'Runes of Magic' In-Game Events Starting Tomorrow - Screens

by Rainier on Oct. 13, 2009 @ 7:52 a.m. PDT

With an extensive range of features Runes of Magic prepares to redefine the standard of free-to-play MMO games. Even at the beginning Runes of Magic conveys its absorbing story in over 5,000 quests embedded in an atmospheric world.

Runes of Magic features a unique dual class system enabling players to combine one of eight primary classes with a secondary class. The result is a deep player experience that expands upon the game’s deep customization offering. There are two different playable races, Elves and Humans, from which players can choose. Each dual class combination produces its own powerful elite skills. Another popular feature is the opportunity to furnish your own completely individual virtual home, and guilds can construct guild castles, which can be expanded with additional buildings. Thanks to comprehensive crafting and reputation systems, gripping PvP features, deep customization and demanding dungeons, Runes of Magic has something for everyone.

From Wednesday 14th October, Frogster is launching a series of in-game events in the Runes of Magic game world. In a weekly rhythm, a dangerous troop of Zurhidon warriors will strike in turn on the various European servers always at 20:00. In the course of the manually GM controlled event, the Zurhidon will use their sinister powers to the fullest, summoning up demons for their own dire purposes.


In order to overwhelm Taborea, they send  two generals in addition to their demonic and Zurhidon troops. The task lying before players of Runes of Magic will be to beat back this evil and ferocious force. But take care; the powers of darkness will try to cut off the well-intentioned player troops in order to lure them into an ambush. Instead of being content with just one prime location, they will actually attack on two fronts simultaneously.

More details, and a schedule, for the Zurhidon in-game event can be found on the official website.
