As most of us know, Mythic plans to unleash 2 new classes within Q4 of 2008. The classes are (as the title shows) The Black Guard and The Knight of the Blazing Sun. These two classes did not make it into the final launch and Mythic promised their release  soon after launch. Mythic plans to give players a chance to test out a new scenario and the two classes during their Novemember 17th Heavy Metal Event!

The Black Guard

“The Black Guard of Naggarond are the favored warriors of the Witch King Malekith, and are given the scared task of not only serving as his personal bodyguard, but as his heartless enforcers on the field of battle. Those who would become the Black Guard are taken from birth from their mothers. A Black Guard has no family ties to distract them, they are children of hatred and war and are raised from infancy steeped in battle and blood. Each Black Guard has personally sworn an oath of undying devotion at the feet of the Witch King, it is this oath that lights the fires of hatred and scorn deep in their hearts, for no warrior can be greater then the one chosen by Malekith himself.”

Knight of the Blazing Sun

“The Knights of the Blazing Sun are a small elite order of Templars devoted to the study and mastery of the science and art of warfare. These fervent followers of Myrmidia value ability and accomplishment over all other factors, including noble birth. It is because of this that the order has grown in prosperity attracting the finest military minds to its banner. A Knight of the Blazing Sun’s primary goal is to obtain perfection in the art of War, as such they travel the old world individually seeking battle both large and small. A warband with a Knight of the Blazing sun at it’s head is a potent force capable of dealing with opponents with a level of cunning that ensures victory before the battle is even joined.”

Look for a review of each of these classes in the coming days!
