Battle System

Riftforge classes









Guardian

Hight defense that players mostly use as a tank. Guardians can easily taunt enemies as well as block or reflect incoming damage. Even their attacking is defensing, for example they can use Charge to attack enemies off guard.













Ranger

Rangers use mostly ranged attacks, keeping them from getting attacked while dealing medium damage. Damage is not very high, but their skills are focused on dealing damage to as many opponents at once as possible.













Raider

Their focus is on dealing as much damage as possible. Raiders are able to use Stealth techniques that combined with the massive damage can be quite deadly.

As mentioned eariley, the battle system is turn based. Each round allows you to attack with multiple units and/or move their location. Once you have moved or attacked with all of your units, you end the round. The enemy then attacks or moves as well and once again, it's your turn.[gallery link="file" size="medium" ids="2158,2159,2160"]As you can see, Riftforge takes browser gaming to the next level.
