As near as I can tell from my early days spent with the expansion, the only down side of all the new content is that its intended more for lower level players and higher level players with little in the way of mid-game content. Trust me when I say that the quests and design of the early Khitan zone is far ahead of the game's release content, and will leave you wishing the mid-game had some love of its own. But alas, once you finish out the Gateway, it won't be until you reach your upper 70s before you see the beauty of Khitai again, again, at least from what I can tell so far.

but why should a player level their char from 20 to 80 in the same "area", Khitan players need to travel and explore conans world, like tarantia, stygia, and cimmeria.

the same with all races, you dont spend your whole lvling time in cimmeria, you just do some quests there and go explore the world.

I think you did your best to show what this game has for offer or how it has changed but in all honestly i am not convinced this is a good game yet. The main core problems, like PvP, Siege, Raiding etc not addressed yet even in this expansion and it has been long time since the release, Slow developing games are just not worth a 2nd look IMO.

 slow developing game? AoC won the tittle of  “Most Improved Game of 2009″,

I made Tempest of Set and Bear Shaman level cap both of them in under 10 days when game was initially lunched and every review i hear from you guys is that they added new content this or that for leveling but the thing is. leveling is easy in this game it dose not need that. what it needs is new Raids that are acctully challenging, a Seige System that works like it was promised before release. a PvP system that works or atleast gives an illusion of some sort of balance. Crafting system vs Item reward gaind from Raids needs to be adressed. I remember i made Evasion set for my ToS and no one could hit me while no gear from Raiding coul ever match that.

 yes, they added new content for lvling because the community asked for it. more places like Ymir’s Pass, Tarantia Commons and more places to level... and if you lvled 2 characters to lvl 80 in 10 days in the old days where the game had a lack of content to lvl then, my friend, you have no life.

about new raid instances, there is already T1, T2 and T3 raids full of bosses and challenge. T4  coming now in the expansion.

btw there is already toons of 6 man group dungeons like xibaluku and iron tower where you can run it in normal or hard mode for better rewards.

I dont remember which one it was but if you double tab forward or back you get added evasion and with right items you end up with like 75+% evasion. Then there is the problem of walking under the walls and floors the Siege walls are used as barrier but there is glitch that lets you walk under them; same can be used in some raids.

its all already fixed. the sets, the gems, the stats, the double tab back. all fixed.

AMAZING! cant wait to play!

thank you guys for watching :)

Casters:

• Don't have to use stamina to do attacks, which melee share for sprinting

 

its all you need to say. its one of the big imbalance in the game... Im an assassin with 5k stamina! AN ASSASSIN! ROGUE CLASSE! but demo and necros have more stamina than me and can run more. They dont need stamina to attack so the stamina bar is only to sprint and they do it better than rogues.. damn casters!

"They may want some classes to be more newbie friendly to allow less skilled or experienced players to participate, likewise they might design a class to be rewarding if you get into the complexity of their skills, and one may not have a higher maximum output than the other.

We face this issue all the time in Age of Conan for example as the game was designed to have the casting system to be inherently simpler to help support players who did not want to deal with the faster paced melee combo system. This makes an inherent imbalance that is supported to some extent by the original design. For us in some way it works, and achieves its objective without slanting the players only towards casters (most players in Conan still play melee classes despite the mechanic imbalance) in other ways it does frustrate experienced players who would prefer everyone was equal."

This is the BIG problem.. fix it and 60% of the balance will be done.
