Game Code/Resolution System
Resolution System
Elder Tale Online uses a Card-Based resolution system. This is largely used for combat encounters, but also enables larger-scale projects, such as building towns.
Each character has 2 Classes (A Primary and Secondary one) which combine into a Title - as well as a non-combat Profession.
Each Class provides Concepts, an abstract idea of the capability of a character to get things done. Typical cards will often require a certain Concept to be available on a class or character.
Classes
There are 12 classes in total, with various attributes to them. To give context to the Points Gain rate. At the game's opening, everyone starts with a Percentage of '30' to spend on certain classes of cards. So for instance, the Heavy Blade would have 12 points to spend on Attack Cards, 12 points on Defense Cards, and 6 points on Utility Cards.
