NCsoft Showcases Warrior Class in Aion

NCsoft is pleased to reveal an all-new selection of screenshots for Aion, the biggest MMO release of 2009! In Aion, players take to the skies as powerful winged beings to battle for the fate of Atreia, a planet shattered by civil war. These screenshots reveal the two class specializations, Templar and Gladiator, which players can choose to pursue in Aion when they select to play as the strong and weapons-proficient Warrior.

The Templar
Templars are brave souls who must hold the frontline, using their shields to block and parry attacks while waiting for a weakness to show itself before retaliating. Templars become more powerful when struck; they can only reveal their full potential when they are in the midst of combat.

The Gladiator
Gladiators are the true melee masters of Atreia; vicious and beastly - constantly training to perfect the various fighting styles their class excels in. Much like the Warrior class that they emerged from, a Gladiator's power comes from sheer, brutal strength - to see one of these behemoths in combat is a truly awe-inspiring sight.
