Battle of the Immortals

Battle of the Immortals is a downloadable,  free to play MMORPG by Perfect World Entertainment.
Beta began on 13.4.2010 and is open to all users with a Perfect World account. On 30.4.2010 the Closed Beta ended and the Open Beta began on 4.5.2010. Battle of the Immortals features a really big world to explore, an expansive pet system, a mount, pet and gear upgrade system, and five playable classes: Berzerker, Champion, Heretic, Magus & Slayer.
Berzerkers concentrate almost exclusively on causing physical damage. Berzerkers still wear light armor, which gives them decent defense against physical attacks; however they are extremely susceptible to magical damage. Usually Berzerkers are found in the middle of a fight, never on its edges. Several Berzerker skills focus on weakening targets in terms of speed and/or defense. 

Focusing almost entirely on defensive ability, Champions suffer slightly in terms of damage. Most of a Champion’s abilities focus on being in the center of the fight. Area of effect (AoE) taunts to save your friends from monsters, or even in some cases immobilizing their targets, Champions are invaluable tanks. 
Slayers spend a large majority of their training focusing on what makes things “tick”. They then spend an even larger amount of time studying on how to make the “ticking” stop. Many Slayer abilities utilize poisons and the elements in order to cause a blend of both physical and magical damage. While being fragile and weak in terms of defense, their offensive ability is almost unmatched. 

Magi are the masters of the elemental magic, utilizing them in order to create destruction and chaos. Maintaining distance from your enemies is essential in order to be successful as a Magus. Many of abilities of the Magi focus on crowd control and snaring/immobilizing your opponents, making this task much easier. Magi are also one of the more area of affect (AoE) focused classes, allowing them to take on multiple monsters at the same time with relative ease.

Heretics come from a long line of religious fanatics. Once holy men, have now melded dark magic with light magic. Capable of dealing medium levels of magic damage, Heretics also have the ability to use magic defensively. Many of their abilities are capable of buffing or healing the caster. Heretics are a key component to any group encounter, whether it be against monsters or other players. 

There are various quests in the game and most of them are titled to our level. Players are given experience and coins and in some cases items from these quests. These items can be armour, weapons, potions and other materials. The more quests that are completed the quicker a character will level up. Several Battle of the Immortals encounters and zones are based on player vs player combat. there are also sub divisions of quests which can be separated into different parts. some of them being <branch>, <scenario>, <within the day>, <instance>, and such. doing scenario quests will unlock different chapters which make up the foundation of the game, also the rewards from the scenario quests tend to be greater than that a average quest.

Battle of the Immortals has in itself elements from various mythologies from all over the world like Atlantis, Eastern Island, or even Ancient Egypt! The game has a strong emphasis and focus on atomization and equipment upgrade. The one feature that's stand out of other PWE games is the gear, equipment, weapons & armor, that's really breathtaking.
