First class FREE If you use coupon "WZACHSHROUD25" at checkout. This class is designed to foster a cooperative and friendly environment where learners will work together to accomplish in-game tasks, including completing quests, gathering materials, and building. We will use the first 10 minutes getting into the server. Next, we will play for approximately 1 hour and focus on specific tasks. Finally, will be learning about various materials and processes we found in the game, including raw materials such as copper and tin as well as how leather is made in the remaining 15 minutes of class. In addition, we will learn about the professions of the NPCs (non-player characters), which are farmer, blacksmith, carpenter, hunter, and alchemist. Learners will choose a specific class they would like to play and build their character accordingly which will add to the cooperation aspect of the game. Some of these include: mage, healer, sword & shield melee, archer, and beast master. This game is only available on Steam currently, so you must have a device in which you can download Steam (PC desktop, laptop, Mac).
