    R8 is here and so is the new "glyph-based" combat system. As always, it's my goal to make sure that you get up to speed on things as quickly as possible so you can enjoy as much of the limited release time as you can.

    To that end I have put together another video to take you through the "deck building" system.

    Learn how to create a deck, build a deck, as well as, change your "Hand Size", "Draw Speed" and "Discard Speed" using focus.

    You will also learn about slugs and how to avoid them.

    Finally, at the end of this video I show you the locations of the various PVP zones so you can hone your skills against other players in the various arena's and scenes.




    Don't like the new system. Want to kick it "old school"? Learn how to get your static combat bar on in Shroud of the Avatar:




    You've seen the glyph-based approach to combat. You've also seen how to create a traditional static combat bar. Now it's time to put them together. Learn how to build a Hybrid deck in Shroud of the Avatar and enjoy the best of both worlds:

    Added two more videos that show the multitude of ways you can create a combat bar in Shroud of the Avatar. Glyph, Traditional and Hybrid. Whatever your style, Portalarium's got you covered.

    MadHermit - the videos were an absolute must see..... thanks for the work putting them together. I picked up some useful tips (ALT KEY for self target + much more) ---- regrettably, the wait to put the tips to practice will be killing me until the next open sessions..... keep up the passionate sharing -- its players like yourself that build community spirit and enthusiasm for the game!! TWO THUMBS UP!!
