* TwentyBearAsses: Of the "kill X number of monsters" in disguise variety, since in this MMO every bear actually ''has'' an ass.
* AllWebbedUp: Several quests go into a town overrun with "Silkens", giant mutant spiders that wrap victims in cocoons. One of them is to [[KillItWithFire burn the cocoons]] of marauders who have [[YouHaveFailedMe proven too weak]] to the cause [[FateWorseThanDeath by being cocooned as food/gestation units]] and need to be destroyed to ensure the weakness is purged. Another is to gather the blood of a prominent villager and anoint a banner with it -- the villager happens to have already been cocooned, so you need only stab him and gather the blood from the twitching, prone cocoon.

For example, the Knight of the Blazing Sun and Chosen are both tank characters with support auras; but while the Knight's auras are usually buffs for teammates, the Chosen's auras are debuffs that apply to surrounding enemies.

Like in Mythic's previous MMO, ''VideoGame/DarkAgeOfCamelot'', the emphasis is in PlayerVersusPlayer and their trademarked Realm versus Realm system. There are two sides with three races each: Order (the human [[TheEmpire Empire]], the [[OurDwarvesAreAllTheSame Dwarfs]] and the [[OurElvesAreBetter High Elves]]) and Destruction (Chaos, specifically Tzeentch's followers, the Dark Elves and the [[OurOrcsAreDifferent Greenskins]]). Every race has four unique classes open to them, leading to quite a bit of variety and some ''serious'' AltItis.

''Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning'', usually abbreviated as [[FunWithAcronyms WAR]], is an MMO set in the world of ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer}}'', the second of its kind. An earlier ''Warhammer'' MMO made by Climax was in development around 2003, but that first version fell through spectatcularly when it tanked at the E3 and Games Workshop pulled its funding. Several years later, the license was aquired by Mythic Entertainment, who chose to develop it in a graphically brighter, more accessible format than their predecessor. It was released in late 2008 to record breaking sales, and recieved great critical acclaim. Unfortunately, early issues in server stability and a population thinned out over too many, combined with the release of the second ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'' expansion at the height of these problems, led to it losing much of its early subscriber base and having large reductions in its development team.
