How do you become and Inspector and Judicator...I think I saw somewhere that only Female clases have this choice avaliable to them as well...I'm just wondering what skills they posses...though I think it's probably safe to assume that this is the Kamael's verison of wizard. Since males can be pure sword or hybrid sword/magic, Females have the hybrid, bowgun and magic...but i'm not sure...

TanelTM
11-08-2007, 05:53 PM
I doubt they could do any "magic" they are fighters.. for example a buff skill isn't necessarily a magic skill, songs and dances aren't magic, else I would do magic every time I take a bath.. and NO, I don't dance in my bath :)
It all comes down to how you define magic.
Another example.. not that I would believe in god or the devil but if the devil would make you kill someone, would you say it was magic? ;)

...I don't mean it like "magic" all I mean is like the Human Mystic, or Elven Mystic classes...Would this be the Kamael Mystic classes? I'm Just wondering what the Inspector and Judicator are, they were just off to the side of the Kamael skill tree...

Originally posted by Azuul

yes, there are new transformations race-specific and new transformation based over your subclass.
the choice of subclass give main class also new skills (not subclass's skill but a set of skills based on what subclass you've and which level it is)

Hmm, does anyone have the same opinion as me-that every "update" seems to be "lets completely wreck pvp servers"......first, increasing the level cap to 80 (not distastrous, but a little annoying that you now have 2 more levels to add on each time you level a sub)...then, augments (o joy, now I can make a bishop that can not only heal 2k+hp every second, but can also be hitting you for 500 damadge 5 times a second)...now, increase the max level again, BUT, let's make it so you can't max subs as much (making your base class choise matter more(sux as anything but a human or an orc)), and add skills to your main based on your subs-"woot, farm more" -.-

I get annoyed when you have to enchant items to +20 and then someone cancels your buffs, but now we have to deal with even more stuff that kills pvp -.-
