Last week, Ragnarok 2 Online has a new addition to their races called the Noel Race. It's the latest race of the game and along with its arrival, Asiasoft also included the addition of a new map where the Noels originated from – Yggdrasil Garden.
The History of Noels
Noels came about during the time of the Midgard battles. They were once Elves who battled alongside the Human Race against the Goddess Freyja, in which they emerged victorious. However, after that, the Elves began to disappear after they absorbed the demon spells that were casted during the battle.
The Elves could only survive by absorbing spells and thus they started to grow black wings and tails on their backs, and the symbol of the demon, horns, also appeared from their heads. Due to the transformation, the Human Race started calling them Noels.
The Noel race was saved from extinction by a piece of Ymir, which contain pure and infinite spells, preventing the Noels from transforming into demons when they absorbed demon spells. Even though they would grow into adulthood, they spent their lives as children to reduce the need to consume more spells.
New Map: Yggdrasil Garden
The Yggdrasil Garden, located on the top of the world tree Yggdrasil, is the home of the Noels. The Noels started building the small town Elenas, and lived there happily and peacefully until one day, the peace was shattered by the Freyjas.
The Freyjas' mission was to destroy the pendant made from Ymir, and the Noels fought bravely to protect it. The Noels won the battle eventually after a long and hard fight and they marked this victory with a celebration. However, it was abruptly ended when a wounded traveler showed up in Elenas town and the story of Noel began.
The 2 New Classes of Noel Races
There are to classes added in the game if you choose to pick being a Noel. First, you will go off as an Alter and then, you can choose to being a Crecentia or a Soulmaker.
The Alter Class
The Crecentias can use all Alter skills. They are the main attackers; dealing long distance and multiple melee damage by using their AOE (Area of Effect) debuff attacks and AOE attack skills. The Crecetias are also able to have carious patterns of battle with objects, using their action control skill.
The Soul Makers cannot use Alter skills. They are restricted to their use of their own skills. However, the Soul Makers are able to use the Heal ability and strengthening buff through linking with various objects. The Soul Makers are able to provide object buffs through linking and are able to increase the buff effects by dealing special abilities.
Now, if you want to see the Noel class in action, you can check out some videos below later. Take not that these videos aren't mine. I picked the best videos on youtube showing the Noel race in action and just posted it on my blog. They are from various uploaders and I think you will learn something from this class by seeing them below.
And lastly, if you are looking on the skill build guides for both Crecentia and Soul Maker, well, I will be posting them soon here on Web Junkies Blog. Currently, I am experimenting on what are the best builds for these two class and possibly, I can post them this week or next week. So stay tuned Web Junkies!
