Ultima Online Expansion Pack
Release Date: February 11, 2003
Another addition to Ultima Online, the first MMOcRPG game. Introduces new areas, dungeons, new weapons, new character classes and a number of other novelties.
Ultima Online: Age of Shadows is another add-on for Ultima Online, the first MMORPG. As the developers themselves put it, this is the most “aggressive” expansion from among the ones released to date. It introduces two new classes - paladin and necromancer - each of which has their own properties; for example, the paladin has 10 individual abilities and “chivalry” skill, while necromancer has 16 special spells, may summon 5 different beasts and shape shift into 4 of them. Of course, both classes have a number of quests to perform.
Ultima Online: Age of Shadows also introduces 20 new monsters (including 3 bosses), 10 new weapons, new area (Malas), new dungeon (the biggest in Ultima Online), as well as 13 new offensive moves. Another big news in Age of Shadows is a tool called “Customized House Design Tool” that allows the players to freely design their house. The developers also created a new spell system that opens new possibilities of combining spells and creating magical items. Moreover, Age of Shadows has improved graphics with some 3D elements, as well as enhanced interface.
