GB Feature: DS2: Broken World Armor Feature #2

Our second armor feature for Gas Powered Games’ Dungeon Siege II: Broken World is now available, this time taking a closer look at the Dryad Sword and Watcher Armor available in the expansion pack.

Dryad Sword

The year of hardship following the second great cataclysm changed everything in Aranna. Some feel they will never recover from the disaster, and have given up hope. But the Dryads, like steel tempered in flame, have only become stronger.

Dryads used to fashion their weapons from wood, teeth, and other natural materials. Their new weapons reflect the changes in their attitudes and methods. Their swords are forged from sturdy metal and sharpened to a deadly edge. Their leaf-like shape pays homage to the Dryads’ woodland heritage, but none question their effectiveness.

Watcher Armor

The harsh style and sharp edges of Dryad armor are an immediately visible reminder of how the Dryad race has changed since the second cataclysm. Foregoing the traditional shells and wood, Dryad smiths now make ornate, complex armor out of sturdy metals. No longer content to attack with arrows from a distance, the Dryads are ready to wade in to battle and face their foes directly.

Dryad Watcher armor is the highest quality armor the Dryads make. Warden Celia wears it because it is particularly imposing, and helps denote her rank. Its leaf-shaped decorations are deadly sharp, and its interlocked plates offer unmatched protection to agile adventurers.
