Skyforge announces Ignition expansion and Firestarter class for September

Skyforge is preparing its big summer update, and it’s on fire. No, really, the expansion is called Ignition, and it’ll be out in September on both PC and console. The update focuses on the uber mage Elder God Kir and his flaming army. Lore aside, the most interesting bit is the new class coming to the game, the Firestarter. My.com says it’s the first fire-oriented toon the MMORPG has seen.

“The Firestarters are the eighteenth new class to join the ever-expanding roster of legends available in the Skyforge universe. Descendants of Kir’s fire-worshipping followers, Firestarters are ranged damage dealers with an uncanny control over fire magic. Dark tricksters with a theatrical appeal, they wield chained torches that allow them to unleash swift and agile attacks against non-believers. They also possess an impressive array of pyromantic spells, ranging from blazing hot fireballs and fire breathing, to the full wrath of cataclysmic hellfire summoned from the sky. Their nimble movements and great range make them an awesome addition to any team of Immortals!”
