Age of Conan: Rise of the Godslayer Q&A

MMORPG.com caught up with Funcom's Erling Ellingsen for a brief Q&A about the improvements they made to Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures during 2009 and the Rise of the Godslayer expansion pack we can expect later this year.
MMORPG.com: How will the expansion impact classes?

Erling Ellingsen: The alternate advancement system will add very significant developments to all classes, so yes, the expansion will most definitely have an impact on classes. Each class will have new feat trees available to them, with new skills, abilities and combos. We will be revealing more of the alternate advancement system as we move closer to launch.

MMORPG.com: Will the expansions help bring a better balance between melee and casting classes, what plans do you have for this?

Erling Ellingsen: That's something that is ongoing. The latest major game update that rolled out last week had some changes there, and we will continue to address balance concerns in each major version. That kind of feedback has also been considered within the designs of the new alternate advancement system as well.
