Hero Online


Hero Online is a Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game where players have the opportunity to experience Asian myth and folklore in a martial arts environment. Players will encounter characters and monsters based on Asian martial fiction.
By combining the motif of Asian culture with many unique features, players will experience a game like no other in Hero Online!

Characters: When a player begins the game, they will have to choose one of four characters: The Ruthless Blade, Overseer of the Sky, The Piercing Eye, or the Elegant Mystic. Each character will have his/her own strength, weakness, weapon proficiencies, and stats.

Classes: There are four basic classes per character to choose from: Warrior, Hunter, Physician, and Assassin. Each class has two upgrades that it can undergo allowing for more skills and better class-specific skills. For every progression, characters must complete certain quests that will reward them with skill books and more. For instance, an Assassin can become a Slayer, who can them become a Shinobi but only after completing their class quests.

Skills: Players will have the option to pick and choose certain skills to either focus on whether it be aggressive skills, passive skills, or both. When it comes to choosing skills, players can pick or choose which skills to equip depending on their need since skills are based on books. Players will have 10 book slots, and will be able to allocate which slot has which book. Since a skill book could have up to 3 skills, players could potentially have a whole arsenal of skills or a small amount. Skill books can be found from talking to npcs, fighting monsters, undergoing quests, or trading from other players.

Gameplay: Every combative action, from normal attacks to special moves, looks like it was taken from a martial arts movie. Even the modes of transportation within Hero Online are fun to look at! Players can move with incredible speeds, fly over buildings, or walk on air. Not to mention being able to ride and fight on mounts!

Pet System: One of the most impressive and unique aspect of Hero Online is its elaborate Pet System. In Hero Online, there are two types of pets, mountable and non-mountable pets. Non-mountable pets have the ability to help their masters in combat both in fighting and defending using a special AI system that the player sets. In contrast, mountable pets can’t attack, but they can carry their masters as well as allow them to fight while carrying them. Pets can be obtained by either purchasing them through an npc or by taming wild animals using hunter skills.

Items: Items will be very important in the game since a martial artist’s weapon is a symbol of their pride and skill. Because of this, Hero Online contains an incredible array of item variation in addition to an intricate enchant/disenchant. This is of course on top of an immersive crafting system where PvP is required/optimal to obtain necessary materials.

Game Content: The storyline of Hero Online was created by a collaboration of renowned authors known for their work in Asian Martial Arts Fiction. Players will actually have the opportunity to take part in the story and see how it progresses as they play the game. Through story-specific quests and game content, Hero Online has the feel of a single player RPG where the character must solve the mystery and fight the bad guys while still maintaining the essence of an MMORPG.

What Is DOTA?


DOTA, DOTA mean Defences of the Ancients, it is a custom map made for Warcraft III: Frozen Throne.
DOTA is a team strategy where players can choose sides and his own hero or the host can random choose sides and hero. There are two sides on the games, Sentinel and Scourge.
Players on the same side fight the other players on the opposing side to win the game.
The objective of the games is to destroy the enemy’s base together with AI controlled units
called creeps.Heroes start at level 1 and levels up to level 25. Heroes level up during
the game whilekilling opposing heroes and creeps. Heroes gain skill when they
gain additional levels.
DOTA can be played as starting 1v1 up to 5v5. This could be against human players or
AI controlled heroes which can be played on DOTA AI maps.DOTA is more on strategy than
individual play. Even though players have their own heroes, it is their teamwork that
is very important to winning the game. Although factors like individual
skills also matter, a very good player with team mates that doesn’t care a lot about
the team can’t just win by himself against all his opponents (unless of course he’s
far too good and his opponents are new to the game).
