Just a few questions

Starsteele

I just had a few questions of players who have had a chance to play the game so far.

 

Is there a bank, AH, and mail system in game yet? I had read that traders I believe perform these taks, but were being worked on by Funcom.

Instances:  Are areas beyond Tortage instanced as well when a population cap is met for that area.

PVP: Two questions here. On the PvP servers is open world PvP just for the sake of PvP and nothing more? By that I mean just kill some other player for the sake of doing it or are there ramifications for your actions...either good or bad.

  Are castle sieges just guild vs. guild or can anyone take part ?

Levelling: Are there already alot of high level players out there? If there are, any estimates as to how much game time was actually spent to get there? I like to enjoy the game so would not be one to rush, but wanted to know if it was much of a challenge to actually get there if one were to choose to grind out levels.

Spellweaving: Not really sure how this is supposed to work so any insight would be appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance.

Ok, did some more reading. I guess it is all instanced not zoned like EQ2. By that I mean if I were to go to Thundering Steppes in EQ2, everyone on the server in Thundering Steppes I could find there. While in AoC I could go to a similar zone and some people could be in version A, B, C, etc.

I had read some earlier threads and some people had said it was like EQ2 after Tortage. I wanted to clarify for myself whether it was zoned or instanced. No need to respond to that one.

Any information in regards to my other questions would be appreciated from those who are playing. Thanks.
