Welcome to our first guild interview! Each month we will be interviewing two guilds on a selected server, one from Order and the other from Destruction. We will try to interview guilds who've clashed a few times in the game, to see what the sides thinks of each other.
Order continues to fight the deadly ranks of charging Destruction hordes wherever they can. While in a heated battle on the Ostermark server, I had a chance to exchange some Q&A between swings of maces and spell charges with the Order guild, Call of Fate.
Read on to see what they have to say about the Destruction realm plaguing Ostermark!
Another weekly site update, sharing with you the latest information regarding WAR Allakhazam, as well as reviewing important announcements you may have missed earlier last week. Watch tomorrow's news for our first regular Order vs. Destruction guild interviews!
