Become a legend in your
own mind.
The Legends of Norrath online trading card game was released only a few
short months ago, but the developers at Sony Online Entertainment's
Denver branch pulled out all the stops to release the game's first
expansion a few days before the Christmas holiday. With a few weeks of
playtime with the new cards under his belt, Ten Ton Hammer's managing
editor, Cody "Micajah" Bye, issues his opinion on the brand new card
set. Check out his review then issue your own opinions here!
With several months of tweaking under their belts,
the developers at
SOE-Denver have firmly balanced the gameplay within Legends of Norrath,
and the Forsworn expansion set amplifies the specializations of each
avatar archetype without breaking any of the game mechanics. For
example, each archetype now includes another of the "classes" within
the EverQuest games: the Fighters received new Paladin cards, Mages
earned Necromancer abilities, Druid and Shaman cards were added to the
Priest archetype, and Scouts were bestowed more Ranger enhancements.
