    Herocraft features an upcoming Wiki project often referred to as [url=http://wiki.herocraftonline.com/index.php/Main_Page]HeroWiki[/url]. This project aims to document anything and everything Herocraft-specific from politics to unique elements (such as our upcoming Heroes RPG Plugin) and everything inbetween. It's still in initial development but is available nonetheless at [url=http://wiki.herocraftonline.com]Herocraft Wiki[/url]. We expect to officially launch it soon!

[img]http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii285/amgroma/HCTAB.png[/img][u][b]Introduction:[/b][/u]
    We're also happy to announce the introduction and recent release of the Heroes-RPG plugin - The Heroes RPG plugin seeks to be an all-in-one RPG system to transform Minecraft from a simple building simulator into a fully functional RPG game. From customizable and dynamic classes to skills Heroes will change the way people look at Herocraft. Players will be able to venture out into the world to gain experience and power by defeating not only the world's natural inhabitants but other players!

[img]http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii285/amgroma/HCTAB.png[/img][u][b]Paths:[/b][/u]

    One of Heroes' main features is the introduction of a fully customizable class system and that's something we've been happy to take advantage of. Herocraft features five main paths which each have four specializations. New players are prompted to chose one of the following main paths, upon reaching level 50 they may move into a specialization within their path.

[indent][img]http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii285/amgroma/HCTAB.png[/img] Warriors: Warriors are the traditional fighters of Herocraft wielding heavy armor and strong blades, they march forward to the defense of their allies.

[list]
[*]Paladin - Divine Knight
[*]Dreadknight - Hatred Incarnate
[*]Dragoon - Knight Airborn
[*]Samurai - The Chosen
[/list]

[img]http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii285/amgroma/HCTAB.png[/img] Rogues: Practitioners of refined combat Rogues are one of the more varied archetypes, using speed and skill to cut down their enemies or surround them in traps the rogue's specializations are a force to be reckoned with.

[list]
[*]Ninja - Master of Death!
[*]Ranger - Tracker Extremist!
[*]Beastmaster - Head of the Pack!
[*]Bard - Song Writer and Twister!
[/list]

[img]http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii285/amgroma/HCTAB.png[/img] Caster: With the elements at their beck and call Casters display offensive powers to frighten any iron-clad Knight. Power comes with a price though and Mages pay heavily with their defensive strength being virtually non-existent.

[list]
[*]Geomancer - Master of Elements
[*]Wizard - Master of the Arcanium
[*]Necromancer - The Living Death
[*]Enchanter - Crowd Control Captain
[/list]

[img]http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii285/amgroma/HCTAB.png[/img] Crafter: Crafters are the masters of both gathering and refining materials. Notoriously fragile in the battlefield they possess an unparalleled ability to manipulate materials materials both in purpose and appearance.

[list]
[*]Smith - Master of Repairs
[*]Mason - The Creator
[*]Alchemist - Shaper of Change
[*]Engineer - Making it Work
[/list]

[img]http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii285/amgroma/HCTAB.png[/img] Healer: Healers are the backbones of any party, banishing gaping wounds with little more than a tip of the hat they can turn the tide of any battle when used correctly. This combined with their often lacking offensive abilities makes them priority targets in combat.

[list]
[*]Cleric - Medic Commando
[*]Druid - One with Nature
[*]Bloodmage - Syphoning Fiend
[*]Monk - Martial Arts Champion
[/list]
[/indent]

After you have mastered a path/specialization (level 50) you may freely return to it without losing gained levels for a minimal charge.

[img]http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii285/amgroma/HCTAB.png[/img][u][b]Skills:[/b][/u]

    Another feature we're very proud of is the fully customizable skills within Heroes that we've made available in Herocraft. Each path/specialization has its own unique skills and development on new skills is ongoing - if you can imagine it we can probably do it.

[i]Active Skills[/i]: Most classes have skills that fall into the active category, these are abilities that are bound to items and used freely as mana and cooldowns permit. Popular skills include Piggify (Force the target to be mounted on a pig and thrown around) and Bolt (Calls forth a devastating lightning bolt)

[i]Passive Skils[/i]: Passive skills are generally found on more defensive classes such as Crafters and cause a permenant bonus to a character's stats or access to an otherwise unavailable tool. These include Stoneskin (Reduces damage taken) and Firelord Armor (Reflects damage) We've also taken advantage of the powerful skill engine within Heroes to integrate other plugins such as allowing Alchemists to access the falsebook Cauldron system.


[img]http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii285/amgroma/HCTAB.png[/img][u][b]Summary:[/b][/u]

All in all we're very proud of what we've accomplished so far with Heroes and its' integration into Herocraft and development will continue into the foreseeable future to improve it as much as possible.

For those interested in a game-changing RPG addition to Minecraft there isn't anywhere better to be.
