Pyromancer - mage class

[AyameArai]

Since everyone likes Fire I made a new banner to fit our new soul!

Darn, and I was almost waiting (or hoping?) it to be an animated gif of a burning gnome running around. But jokes aside, that new signature is looking good.

Looks even better with sunglasses on!

So we all agree that Trion is obsessed with Fire magic ;)

Now I have visions of the devs sitting around talking like Beavis and Butthead and saying 'fire...hehe..hehe...fire' while thinking of new ways to burn stuff.

If it's true, it's true.

On a side note, I hear they watch Beevis and Butthead every day at the office ;)

They better have really cool animations for players|mobs on fire... Imagine that troll running around while being lit on fire! Awsome...

You know why Scott shed that little bit of doubt?

Dungeons & Dragons Online

It proved that a western MMO could go to a free-to-play model, include a microtransaction shop, and be successful. Successful enough that they are in the process of testing and moving the other MMO in their stable (LoTRO) to the same model.

I can practically guarantee you that DDO has made more money in the 10 months that it has been 'free-to-play' than it has from subscriptions since it started. Microtransactions are starting to prove themselves as a lucrative little piece of business, if you know how to implement them.

Anyway, to get somewhat back on topic: The Pyromancer.

Why is it always fire? Why is there never a mage class that focuses solely on ice/water? Or something completely different, even.

Bring forth the Wildmage!!!

Turbine actually did a good job with the DDO transition. I run a premium account when my time to play is limited and a VIP account when I have lots of free time. All of the points I earn in game get funneled into content, allowing my to play more of the game when I am using the premium model.
