Ragnarok Online 2: The Gate of the World is a 3D MMORPG based around Norse mythology. It is the sequel to the popular game of the same developer: Ragnarok Online.
Overview
Gravity has announced so far that it will improve many of the features of the first one and add completely new ones.Some of the features that are to be expected are:
- Fully 3D graphics (no longer with the use of 2D Sprites).
- A new "Anti-Theft Mob" system that will prevent kill-stealing by benefiting the victim.
- New trade system.
- Implementation of jumping and swimming.
- New emotion system instead of "bubble" emoticons.
- New night and day cycle, as well as weather effects.
- Improved looting by using a loot-the-corpse system.
- New Job System.
- New equipment leveling system.
- New stats management system.
- Races system.
Note that this features are just what Gravity has announced so far, there is a possibility that this list can, and will change in the future.
Job System
The new job system will add the possibility to customize even more your character by being able to change jobs but retain some skills of the previous job (Specialty Skills). The job level of each class that the character has played will be saved and depending on which skills the player chose to specialize, those are the ones that will be retained when the change of job is done. For example, you could choose to specialize in a two-handed weapon ability while being a Swordsman and then change to an Enchanter, this will allow you to wield two-handed weapons while being a Enchanter thanks to the specialty chosen.- There will be a requirement to change jobs.
- The number of skills that can be specialized in is limited.
- The ability to change jobs has been said to be only possible with certain races.
Stats Management
The new stat management system will be a hybrid system between the Ragnarok Online system and the automatic stat allocation system used in many recent games. It has been stated that two fifths of the stats of the character are chosen by the player, while the other three fifths are automatically allocated depending on the current class of the character. Also, the importance of every stat has increased, so it is now much more difficult to level up a character that only has two or three stats leveled up like in the previous game.The following stats are present in the game:
- STR (Strength): This will affect physical damage and physical defense.
- DEX (Dexterity): This will affect melee critical hit chance and physical dodge chance.
- CON (Concentration): This will affect melee physical and magic HIT chance, ranged damage and ranged critical hit chance.
- INT (Intelligence): This will affect magic damage, magic defense and ranged hit chance.
- LUK (Luck): This will affect melee, ranged and magic dodge chance.
The user will not be able to allocate any points in LUK though, since it's numbers will come from equipment or skills.
Classes
Gravity has only announced the first 5 job classes for the Norman race. It is still uncertain if these classes will advance into more advanced classes. The other races are still to be determined wether they will be class based or not.Novice
The Novice is very similar to the Novice in Ragnarok Online, it is the starting class for every Norman player which can then advance into the first job after leveling certain number of job levels. The class retains some of the abilities such as Play Dead. It will feature more skills than those seen in the first game.Swordsman
The Swordsman class retains his role of the first game as the "Tank". It possesses high HP, high defense and specializes in dealing damage through melee combat.Enchanter
The Enchanter is a hybrid between the Acolyte, Mage and Sage of the first game. It possesses many support abilities like resurrection, while still having the possibility to deal damage through elemental skills.Recruit
The Recruit is the result of a combination of the Archer class and the Gunslinger class. It is the main ranged damage dealer but is based around modern weaponry. It has been said that it will be more useful in close combat than the Archer was in the first.Thief
The Thief will be more "trickery" and mayhem themed this time. It will still attack in close combat with short weapons but it's skills will be more poison / disorient themed instead of focusing on melee damage.Clown
The Clown is based around the Bard and the Dancer but differs from them in certain aspects. It is still unknown the specific role of the Clown but it is hinted to be a support class like the Bard or the Dancer.Race System
Gravity has announced that Ragnarok Online 2 will include a Race System made up of 3 races. They announced so far only specifications on the Norman race and appareance of the other 2. It is still unknown which will be the privileges of each race.Norman
