With many famous battles and scenery spanning desert to sea, a rich world is drawn to provide an engaging and endlessly engrossing experience for all gamers.

9. Major cities A welcome respite from the scars of warfare, the cityscapes provide a lush and welcoming area in which many housekeeping functions can be performed. Equipment purchase and repair, medical care, storage, and chat are but just a few of the features of the city. As well, major figures are in the city to provide direction, assign quests, and to retrieve and display game information. Raid areas Akin to dungeons, these are the areas reserved for the fiercest of fighting. Players looking for the rewards of intense battle play, heroic conquests, and non-stop challenges may enter these instances to see if they can rank amongst the greatest of fighters. Neutral zones : Neutral zones provide an arena in which all things can happen. You may be assigned quests, or challenge players from opposing factions, or form groups to battle.
