E3 Interview Video From Mr.Fixit Online
- Night Elf buildings are all built of wood and are mostly built into trees and it looks from inside that you are inside a tree.
- You can smoothly change the view just by rolling the mouse wheel. From far behind your character in 3rd person, right up to first person.
- Kalidar is the starting location for the Night Elves and the location of their main city.
- There is an Orc village on the coast of Stranglethorn.
- Once again Warriors do not have spells or mana.
- Hit points regenerate rather quickly, even faster if you sit down, and even faster still if you eat food. This is to keep downtime to a minimum.
- Spell effects and extra effects are really good like smoke coming off a creature after a fire spell and small clouds of steam/frost after an ice spell.
- To prevent spell abuse and to encourage mages to use a wide variety of spells, creatures will become immune to certain spells after they have been used once or twice in the battle. Examples we saw were Chains of Ice and Polymorph.
- Invisibility doesn't last very long and neither does Polymorph, both to prevent abuse.
- You can mouse over your buffs in the top corner and they will tell you the effect and how long is left on them.
- "Some of the creatures will cast buffs on each other, so that when you're running along sometimes you'll see a creature casting spells on his buddies to make them more powerful."
"So they're not just passive, right?"
"No, they don't just stand around. They won't wait for you to attack them before helping each other out. They'll gleefully throw buffs on each other, making them harder for you to kill when you get there."
- Mages use crowd control and direct damage spells. Warlocks use summons and DOTs (Damage Over Time spells),
- Enemies can randomly resist spells and skills making them harder to kill and making things more dynamic.
- Cooking skill is useful for providing yourself and your group with food that helps them regenerate health faster.
- There are several types of critters, the ones we have seen so far have been the rabbit and now the toad in this video.
- Warlock summons can't usually take out enemies on their own, you need keep a close eye on the situation and help out with (Damage Over Time spells) and other spells.
- Damage done by summons shows up in brackets above the target so you can tell the difference of the damage you are doing to the damage your summon is doing.
- It's a delicate balance because if you do enough damage to gain the monster's attention it will likely turn and start attacking you, and if you run away it will likely go back to attacking your summon and since most summons aren't capable of killing creatures without the help of the warlock your summon will probably get killed. Creatures may also attack the Warlock after he has casted a spell such as sleep on them, once they awaken again, even if you aren't doing any damage to them.
