Tempest of Set Stygian

Night Watch

English server Fury PvP
Default The quest system forces you to be good...

I've found that there is no way to play am evil character in this game. All the quests despite of your affiliation force you to side with the "good". Just take a look in half of the quests you need to stop stygia from advancing and help aquilonia. I play a Stygian tempest of set and a Stygian assassin... and it really surprises me that I am forced to do these quests in order to advance.
Like why should my character even bother helping all these aquilonian agents in their sabotage against Stygia. Moreover you have no other choice than to do these quests because it is the only way to get out of Tortage...

So it appears that this game leaves you no room for evil roleplaying. In the end all characters independent of affiliation are meant to work for the "good cause"...

Anywhere I go there are Mitra temples. Where are the temples of Set???

We need a separate quest line for different races and perhaps classes. In my opinion it looks really weird when a Stygian assassin helps people with supplies, cures the sick, escorts children... hmm... Because from the roleplaying point of view such assassin looks sort of fake. I know you could advise me not to do these quests but then I will have to grind experience because there is lack of quests in order to advance...

Assassin Aquilonian

Barren Path

English server Aquilonia PvP-RP
Default ..

Temples of Set? Do try Stygia. And yes, well slaying wounded enemies even if they're Vanirs is not sweetie pie, and I've had quite a lot of other near dirty deeds :-). Quests are important but yes you can still ROLE PLAY as evil as you'd like especially on a PVP server.

Completely agree!

I want to see two sides in a PvE war: The supporters of Conan and the socalled "good guys" or the supporters of the stygian [cant remember name] which is the "bad guy". Me too play a bad guy, but I feel just too ordinary.

FunCom: More diversity please! Let us play real bad guys! Give us bad quests for the bad guys! Let us level up in the hierchy of evilness and let us built a throne of headskulls, maintinaing a harem of slavegirls and do sacrifical rites of slaves!!!

As long the game is 18+ anyway, just go all the way into extreme (with SOME limitations ofcource!!)!! Blood splatter is all too common now! You even get it in teen rates childrens movies! And American Pie have for a long time since taken of with nudity and sexuality!
