Prestige Classes

From WikiAOC

Presige Classes have been removed from the game, and their bonuses have been implemented in other ways. This page is preserved for posterity.

Guilds will be a very important part of Age of Conan and the Prestige class system allows players to provide benefits and improvements to their guild in a way not seen before in an MMO. This system allows players to be truly engaged in the well-being and strength of their guild like never before. Everyone will have a true interest in helping support and grow their guilds whilst also getting personal benefits along the way!

There are four prestige classes that players can choose from: Lord, Commander, Crafter or Master. Each brings something very different to the guild and players will have a real choice to make in terms of how they want to benefit their guild.

In this update we mention the four types of resources. Everyone can extract the four types: Gold Nuggets, Iron Ore, Wood and Stone. They are used for building houses in the Guild Villages, in the building of Battle Keeps in the Massive PvP areas and finally for Crafting. If you are guilded you get resource extraction bonuses which goes to a guild repository, and which can be used by everyone. If you are not in a guild, you must gather all your own resources.

Each prestige class that exists in a guild will give benefits to the guild (on a 'per account' basis to prevent players bolstering their ranks with 'alt' characters—you may have alt characters, however only the prestige class of the first to join will benefit your guild.)

Players will be able to choose a prestige class outside of a guild, although they may not get the full benefits or have access to the best skills and abilities of their chosen path unless they are a member of a guild.

[edit] Prestige Classes

• Lord – offers guild management bonuses and extras like building discounts to guild.

• Commander – offers military bonuses. Such as formation bonuses and larger team sizes.

• Crafter – those making essential items and equipment needed for the guild to succeed in extended battles and harsh conditions.

• Master – receives a loyal follower who stands by their side and helps them. The follower’s true role is in the domain of collecting resources, as they can be set to collect resources for the guild when their master is offline.
