Dark Age of Camelot: Labyrinth of the Minotaur Q&A

GameZone has posted a short Q&A with EA Mythic's Walt Yarbrough, quizzing the producer about the team's upcoming Dark Age of Camelot: Labyrinth of the Minotaur expansion pack.
Q: How would you respond to those that will be looking at the steps to unlock the new character class, the mauler, and say that this expansion is geared to the hardcore player?

A: (I would not say it is necessarily hardcore because every player can get in it and make a minotaur. If you are going out and starting a new armsman, that's not hardcore.)

But he was quick to admit that there is content in the new expansion that addresses the needs of the higher-level players. (At this stage of the game,) Walt said, (we are five years in and a very high percentage of our user base is at the top levels in the game. We need to give our high-level customers room to expand.)

With a bit of a wink, he stated that something he had not mentioned before concerned the first team to unlock the mauler class for its realm. (Our goal is to preserve some of your history for perpetuity. You guys will be, forevermore, the ones that unlocked the mauler class for your realm. It is not technically easy to do. But if we can get it in great.)
