Mr. Ktat: There is an ongoing story line in ArchLord that revolves around 5 Archons that were created in Chantra s early years.  When the Archons are united, players are granted the power of the ArchLord. In fact, the best way to learn more about the ArchLord lore is to pick up a copy of the ArchLord manga that s now available. This fills in some of the detail from the ArchLord world.

The ArchLord system itself has a lot of depth to it. There are two stages that players are required to complete if they want to become the ArchLord. Stage 1 is the capturing of the castles. Players, with the help of their guild, need to capture one of the three in-game castles. Once all three castles have been captured, players will then be able to take part in the next stage: the battle for the ArchLord crown! The three castle owners will need to defeat a series of monsters and then each other before they can make the final push to win the ArchLord crown and with it gain control of an exclusive Dragon Mount and some outstanding powers.

MMOSITE.COM: When will ArchLord Episode II be available? You know, many players are waiting eagerly for the early release of it. Is there any level restriction or any other kind of restriction for accessing to this expansion?

Mr. Ktat: NHN and Codemasters are focused on getting Episode II: Season of Siege ready and made available to players as quickly as possible. Keep checking the ArchLord forums and website for more information regarding its release. Before it is released far and wide we will be creating a public test server that all current ArchLord players will be granted access to. There isn t really a level restriction on the ArchLord system, so all players will be able to take part in the castle sieges certainly. However the monsters that players will encounter on their quest to become the ArchLord are pretty tough so I d recommend a minimum level of 50 for most players. Other than that there are no restrictions, Episode II will be available free of charge to all ArchLord players.
