Q. The story of transformation contents came out briefly. What is the racial composition of <TL>? The first thing that comes to mind is the races like humans, orcs, and elves that often appear in NC games.

Lee Mun-seop, general manager of planning: We only play as humans. However, there are various contents that will satisfy the desire for transformation. In addition to the transformation into the animal form shown in the video, there are many more. In fact, the giant monster in the siege scene was originally a player.

Han Gu-min, Narrative Director: In the case of animal transformation features, the functional aspect is large. In addition to fast movement and jumping over terrain, there is information that can only be learned when transformed. For example, if you transform into a bird, you can not only appreciate the surrounding environment from a bird's eye view, but also find out the distance from the boss and the location of the boss in a boss battle, which has great strategic use.

Q. It's a good plan, but will it come true? When the light air system of <Blade & Soul> was first introduced, it seemed like you could go anywhere with light air. However, in the end, it was used as a means of transportation to major spots, and there was a feeling of regret. How about <TL>'s transformation, a system that removes the limitations of vision and movement?

Ahn Jong-ok PD: It doesn't completely loosen the restrictions. For example, a castle wall originally designed to be insurmountable is suddenly able to be crossed or not.

Han Gu-min, Narrative Director: It does not mean that part of the map was originally blocked. Since the transformation system also has its own limitations, it means that you cannot reach 'everywhere' with transformation alone. For example, a glide is essentially a downward movement from a specific point in the air. Since <TL> also set a height limit at which the character can float to the maximum, there are naturally restrictions on the range that can be reached through descent.

Ahn Jong-ok PD: That's why the 'starting position' is important in descending. If you choose the starting position properly and ride well, you can overcome major obstacles such as castle walls. At this time, the direction of the wind also plays an important role.

Lee Mun-seop, general manager of planning:​ There is a high-level user skill that can change the wind direction at will. It is the highest level skill that can be possessed by one person per server. In addition, there are skills that greatly change the environment, such as changing the climate or inducing a solar eclipse.

Q. Do those skills have a big impact on the battle situation?

Ahn Jong-ok PD: It will have a very big impact.

Q. It must be very difficult to raise a character with that skill.

Ahn Jong-ok PD: It is not a skill that can be acquired by ‘growing up’ a character. have to get it

Q. If it's 'Capture', it's probably not a skill that all guilds can have, and it's like a means to trigger a skirmish.

Ahn Jong-ok PD: That's right. Depending on which group has what high skill, the strategy (between the parties) also differs.

Han Gu-min, Narrative Director: Of course, these skills have a cooldown, so the timing of use is also important. There is no guarantee that (the operation using the skill) will succeed at once, so you have to be more careful when using it. Along with the use of skills, a situation in which users move at the same time by matching the sum is created.
