Happy Beta Day

Hey, seekers!
Just wanted to wish our Chinese players (and Chinese speaking players with accesss) a "Happy Beta Day". We've all been waiting for this, for it marks a milestone in Forsaken World for all of us, in the future.

Chinese Beta date Announced! Fashions, Magic Pet Training

Well, seekers, if you've been scouring the 'net, and reading blogs like Vahrna's , or Cinderboy's, then you already know that Beta will begin on the Chinese servers March 25th!, which is approximately one month away.
Be sure to read up at the above links, to scrutinize for yourself.

Now, on to other news of the day. Starting off with 'fashions'.
In Forsaken World, each of the 5 races of Grand Mundo will have styles that reflect their ethnic and occupational positions, inspired from some of the more visually impressive periods of history. What I would like to know is if there will be "costume" slots, to change the 'look', without changing stats. We'll find out, won't we? Let's see the pretty pixels...

 

 Flowery Elves

Baroque Dwarfs. (If it ain't Baroque, don't fix it!)

Vamps- Heavy Metal Gothic FTW! (Really, *how* can you compete with that?)

The "Legacy of Kain" shall continue with me.

A Byzantine Human

And, knowing the near limitlessness of Forsaken World's customizations, it may be difficult to find "someone who looks like you". The attention to details never fails to impress me.

On to the next topic..

"Magic Pet development"

Well, if you've been following for any length of time, you know that there are "regular" pets than can be obtained, and there are "Soul Pets", rare drops that require specific skillsets to capture. Once you have them, you'll want to maximize their effectiveness, right? Of course you will. Forsaken World will have a "Soul Pet College" that you can send your rare pet to, (and you don't have to worry about them bringing home a mountain of dirty laundry!)

Of the dozens of Soul Pets, they can be broken down into two rough categories: "Attack" and "Support". With the proper training and refinement, your pet can potentially develop into an Uber partner, a companion for which to dominate your opposition in Grand Mundo, whether it be PvE or PvP. As with all things, "what you get out of it depends on what you put into it."
