So I’ve been playing Archlord for a few days now, and I have to admit, it’s the best of many different MMO’s! Let me highlight some new features that I really think makes this a very high contender in my view of MMO’s. First the auction system. One of the pains that I had in WoW was the fact that you had to go to some place to auction your items. So when you are grinding away at MOB’s (Monsters in PvE (Player vs Enemy)) you have to hold on to a ton of stuff, stuff that you know you aren’t going to use, but will fetch a pretty penny at the auction site. How do Archlord deal with this? You can go straight into your inventory and sell directly from the field! Now the only downside to this is you have to already know what your items are worth, but this is easy when it comes to stones and potions that you might have.

Additionally the enhancement system is also very intuitive, so enhancing weapons and selling them becomes very easy, and profitable!

Team play is something that is fostered in this game, so the AutoLooting feature, something that you have previously been able to use in a solo environment, is ONLY available via the Group functionality. While this may seem clunky it forces users to team up, even though they are not sharing loot or XP (Experience). Trust me when I say this is a nice feature and gets you to talk with people who are just like you!
