The Guardian Fighter
By Stormshade @ September 19, 2012 at 2:23pm

Role: Defender
Power Source: Martial
Some fighters choose to rely on large imposing weapons, others prefer dirty tricks. You believe that fighting better means fighting smarter. You traded in large cumbersome heavy weapons for superior defenses and the ability to control the battlefield around you.
You fight with sword, and board. Equipping a long sword in one hand and shield in the other, allowing you to be able to best defend your allies on the field of battle. You can use your shield to block incoming attacks, or slam your enemies, weakening them. Your long sword can be used to cleave through swathes of enemies, ensuring that their attention is kept on you, and not your allies. While your shield may be used to temporarily weaken foes who threaten you, or your allies.
Abilities such as Lunging Strike can be used to charge your enemy, closing the distance between you; and Enforced Threat can be used to ensure that your quarry attacks only you, allowing your fellows to move freely through the battle field. Even stronger powers, such as Fighter’s Recovery, can be used in moments of duress to help you stay alive, and continue to protect your allies when the battle turns grim.

a interesting class, it seems. i do hope the shaking screen can be turned off, because it made it difficult to see what was going on.

Gardian Fighter - a rather unique and useful member of any group. Good idea.

Anyway you view it, this guy's a tamk. He'll be a great support character with a ranger or MU. On his on he'll need to know when to run away.

as awsome and spectacular as that video looks, it seems like the game is more like vindictus and less like DnD, that being said, it still looks like an awesome game and worth trying
