We wrote about how Destiny of Ancient Kingdoms (www.DOAK.co.za<\/a>) breaks conventional thinking on MMO\u2019s in our previous article. In this article, we will be going more in-depth about our authentic MMO experience.<\/p>\n

Free to play MMO\u2019s are notorious for being quite pricey when it comes to getting decent enjoyment from the game. Most international titles require the use of real money to instantly revive, use potions or gain new equipment, but that\u2019s not what we had in mind when we developed Destiny of Ancient Kingdoms (DOAK).<\/p>\n

DOAK is perfect for all gamers who miss that sense of achievement from working hard to get to the next level and obtaining rare items. You can only acquire rare Gold and Orange quality equipment by defeating strong boss monsters in instances or finding them in the treasure hunting activities.<\/p>\n

Another way to get rare and powerful equipment is to make them with materials that you obtain by killing monsters in the maps. One of the projects we worked on recently was making a material map that tells you which monsters drop which materials for our Pro Guide, so that you can find all the necessary materials to craft your own equipment.<\/p>\n

Joining a guild that has a smithy will give you the benefit of learning Gold Formula\u2019s for making sought-after gold quality equipment. This means that players who work together with other players benefit by having friends who help them become much stronger, which has made our in game community very helpful to new players.<\/p>\n

In-game currency can be used to purchase all of your character\u2019s necessities such as food, potions, equipment, mount feed and other items that keep you on the path to discovering your destiny.<\/p>\n

Health related items such as potions and food can also be found by killing monsters in the game environment. Upgrade items such as reinforced sapphires, wing feathers and runes can be found by doing treasure hunting tasks, 21 points activity and killing difficult monsters in the instances. So players who work hard in the game are equally rewarded for their efforts.<\/p>\n

We recommend that you should focus on playing DOAK as often as possible to become a good player, and purchase additional items that will enhance your gameplay with unique items like Mounts and fashion suits that will help your character really stand out amongst other players.<\/p>\n

We would like to thank all of our local players for their loyal support as we understand that we would be nothing without them. It is a truly gratifying feeling to know that all of our hard work and dedication helps our players enjoy Destiny of Ancient Kingdoms even more.<\/p>\n
