Hey all, forgive my 'noobness' but I just found out about 'Prestiege Classes' in AoC which actually sound really interesting but since I hadn't heard of them I was wondering if this feature is still in the game or if it has been cut:

The devs took em about because they felt they restricted the player too much and didn't offer enough freedom of character development. It think that's what they said.
They took them out due to Beta testers saying that they felt limited.

well keeping the classes generalized lets people have freedom. I mean in a way D&D the prestige classes there where pretty restrictive.
So I cant have a squire anymore?
Aye, they're out. But I like the idea with'em. Maybe they do some rework and release them with a expansion. Who knows?

The Sceptics, yes they're special but we've need them to.. I guess.
And if they're put more effort MMORPG.com can create a 'Team Sceptic'
and send them to the Special Olympus.
Actually, they took them out before beta testers ever had the opportunity to test them. According to the official information, it was one of those things that looked good on paper but just didn't work at the end of the day.
Aww I really liked the idea of giving bonuses to my guild and such. Thanks to all for answering - much appreciated
BOYCOTTING EA / ORIGIN going forward.
The prestige classes themselves have been removed, but the bonuses from taking Battle Keeps or other capturable locations are very much still in the game.
