Gameplay
Players control either male or female computer generated avatars, which belongs to one of the three starting classes. Players interact with other players in the walk mode, where they move around by clicking where they wish to move, and the battle mode, where players may fight in turn based combat against other players. In walk mode, players can place other people on their Buddy List, choose either a 1v1 or 2v2 Battle, manage their inventory, talk to other players, buy or sell items, or access the map. In battle mode, players fight in either one on one (1v1) or two on two (2v2) team battles. Each player, according to their starting class, has access to differing skills, which they use each turn to attempt to win the battle. In battle mode, a player can either attack, use one of their skills, or flee. When a player flees, they exit the battle, and if they where the only one on their team, the battle ends in a forfeit.
Classes
There are three main classes currently available in Epic Duel. They are all obtainable upon creating an account, and are as follows:
*Techmage: Techmages have realatively strong attacks, most with dangerous side effects, such as stun, or multiple targeting. Techmage also have many passive attacks, that increase their gun damage or mana recovery.The games staff also says tech mage is the best class.
*Mercenaries: Mercenaries are all about damage, and most of their attacks are ramped up, and very dangerous. They don't have many side effects or passive effects, because they're all about inflicting damage on the opponent.
*Bounty Hunters: Bounty Hunters are a cross between Techmages and Mercenaries. They hit hard, with strong attacks, but they are also swift, and fast, with dangerous side effects such as stun and poison. They usually use multiple weak attacks in one turn to de-stabilize a foe, then move in for the kill. Bounty Hunters are very adaptable, which makes them the most popular choice of class.
Storyline
Elta V was a lush, fertile planet of wild beauty before Baelius arrived. A cunning and power hungry buisinessman, he soon discovered Varium, living metal hidden within the planet. Mining Elta V to acquire the Varium, he soon faced a revolt from his oppressed workers and guards. However, with his quota of Techmages, he cast the rebels into a nether-world dimension, which should have destroyed them. However, the rebels grew strong, and returned, to wage war against Baelius and his corruption.
