Without a doubt, boasting a set of extreme-looking armor is one of the
coolest elements of any fantasy MMO. Many of those "Whoa" moments come
when a player first observes a special type of in-game armor. Out of
all the classes in href="http://www.tentonhammer.com/taxonomy/term/254"
target="_blank">Aion,
the melee-based Templar sports the best armor in the game, and
according to the NCsoft devs makes them look like "metal gods."



In our second exclusive Aion
class interview, it seemed appropriate to talk about href="http://www.tentonhammer.com/node/67258" target="_blank">the
Gladiator's more heavily armored brethren, so the Ten Ton
Hammer staff quizzed the Aion
team about the Templars. The answers we received were excellent. Armor,
abilities, lore and more subjects were all explored, so make sure you
check it out!

Ten Ton Hammer: Templars
seem like a very melee-oriented sort of class. How does this affect the
flight mechanic in Aion?
Will Templars be powerless once they leave the ground?

NCsoft: All
classes are more vulnerable in the sky, but thanks to the
Templar’s higher defensive skills and rating they will be
more protected that most.  Strategy of when to fly and when
not to fly will affect the Templar’s just as much as any
class.
