There's a <A href="http://www.gamespot.com/pc/rpg/hellgatelondon/news.html?sid=6135649">forth preview</A> of <A href="http://www.hellgatelondon.com">Hellgate London</a> over at <A href="http://www.gamespot.com/">GameSpot</a>. There's also a few <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/pc/rpg/hellgatelondon/news.html?sid=6135649">new screenshots</a> of the game to whet your eyes if you like that kind of thing. Anyway, here's a bit about that templar class you've probably never heard anything about yet:
<br>
<blockquote>In the meantime, you can choose from the game's many, many skills. The templar character will apparently have skills that focus on "auras," energy fields that radiate from his or her person that can either hinder nearby enemies or strengthen nearby foes. Even though the game will have many different skills, you'll be able to choose only a certain number of them by investing various skill points in each. With each skill point you invest, your skills will become more powerful. However, the game won't have any skills that get replaced over time, and therefore Flagship intends for all skills in the game to remain useful throughout the entire game...even the ones you get at the very beginning. And fortunately, you'll be able to adjust how many points you have invested in an individual skill anytime you wish.</blockquote>
<br>
I think I've seen that <i>templars have auras</i> thing before in another game, but I can't quite put my finger on which game that was...

Huh?
Aren't foes and enemies are synonyms?
And why, for Satan's sake, you may want to strengthen your foes?
I think it's some sort of mistype. (Instead should be friends or allies).

Now THERE'S an idea. An RPG where not only do you never become uber, but in order to win you must actively get weaker and make your enemies stronger.

It's just a mistype. Auras make your buddies stronger. They make enemies weaker.
