However, Throne & Liberty is not really a new game coming out. Though Summer Game Fest was the first time it could be played in the West, the game has been out in Korea since 2023, and maybe some more concrete lessons have been learned there. Amazon is keen to stress that while the West is getting the game later, it's not getting a different game, but the same as the Korean one, made with a "global audience in mi
And there are a handful of good aspects to Throne and Liberty , but in their present state, they don’t do enough to elevate it __ over similar games in the genre. ** Most MMO players are pretty entrenched in their favorite games. When a new title comes along, it has to offer something special enough to draw players away from their current obsessions. This one just __ doesn't do that, at least not yet. Throne and Liberty ** __ lays a solid foundation, but it still has a long way to
It definitely boosted the otherwise pretty bland combat with an extra layer of excitement, but you have to go through a lot of PvE grinding to get to the point where you can be competitive in PvP. It is, however, possible to skip much of this grinding by spending premium currency to purchase upgrade materials at the in-game Auction House, which has me concerned about long-term balance . A prominent guild led by a few big spenders could easily dominate an entire ser
This is a really cool concept, and offers something different from the usual AoE-avoiding that comprises your average MMO’s sole defensive maneuver. With the right application, this parrying system could make certain battles more exciting, but ultimately, **** it just amounts to another piece of UI you have to keep an eye on. It can be distracting from the offensive aspects of combat, and doesn’t live up to its fullest potential in the current version of the game. That's compounded by the otherwise stock-standard MMO combat fare - nothing to write home ab
Each rarity of item will max out at a certain point and no longer be upgraded . When items hit this point, they can then be sacrificed (transferred) to enhance a new item you have of the next tier / rarity. You can also transfer gear even if it hasn't hit the maximum enchanted level. When you transfer a gear piece to another item, the original item will be destroy
Much like the time travel concepts introduced in the story, real-time defense and animal morphing are unique ideas, but they don’t go as far as they could. There's a possibility for them to be expanded on in future expansions or updates, but in their current form, **they fail to make Throne and Liberty as interesting as they could
Some of the leveling up in Throne and Liberty is done through experience points and increasing stats, but a lot of it is also done by crafting upgrades. You rack up a ton of crafting materials just by playing through the campaign - different materials are used for upgrading weapons, equipment, accessories, and skills. I rarely found myself having to scramble for the necessary materials to reach the next level, but did quickly discover that you really need to spend all the crafting materials you get in order to stay competiti
"Everything about Throne & Liberty, from day one, was built with, I would say, the right word is 'massive'," Lafuente says. "Massive scale, everything about it, the world, the buildings, everything. And the tech being built is going to allow things like the castle sieges that have thousands of players participating in a castle siege. That's not an exaggeration, that's already something that has been seen in the Korean life service is thousands of players participating in this castle siege. That's probably the biggest event that we have. And then there'll be other things that have hundreds of players, going down even to guild vs guild battles, which will be more along the 50 v 50, 60. v 60 type of range. Scale is a big part of what we expect in Throne And Liberty Beginner Guide & Liberty, particularly when it comes to PvP battl
The above chart can be seen in-game when hovering over the '?' beside the Equipment Upgrade Rate . This means you have a 40 percent chance to gain 25 percent of the item's exp growth bar, a 30 percent chance to gain 30 percent of the growth bar, and so
The Sword and Shield also gives you self-healing when blocking furry attacks. The mastery tree of this type of weapon is divided into Provoke & Counter, Boss, and Collision ** . While it does not boast the highest burst damage, this weapon offers consistent damage output over time. You should consider pairing it with a Greatsword ** to get additional area-based dam
When transferring gear, the old item's gained experience will be applied to the new item. You can transfer an item to another item of the same rarity and you will keep the level (as mentioned above); but you can also transfer a lower-quality item into a higher-quality it
Once you have upgraded your item to a certain level, you can no longer upgrade it further. For example, if you have an Uncommon (Green) headpiece, you can only level it up to level six . Level six is then the maximum upgrade level for that i
