Hiya yall , new to mmorpg forums , registerd only cuz of conan. Never has one game created such hype in me so basicly i would like to fast forward my life until it comes out.
So i have few questions bout the game , on which i could not find answers , maybe cuz there are non out there but more likley cuz am lazy. If some of this questions were answered before am really sorry .
So lets start.
1.) Combat system looks great but i have seen no blocks in vids .... so will there be any blockin in game (with weapon or shield) or maybe by raising some stats?
That leads me to my other question
2.) What kind of char development will we have ; standard like str,cha,intel etc. or many various skill like in anarchy online?
3.) *I know , am blind , but i couldnt find answer to this* I know 3 races, how many classes?
4.) Ranged mounted combat ... possible?
5.) Will there be ganks in game or will it be moslty team based pvp?
and last one
6.) Lvling in group , possible? If whats the limit of players one groupe can hold?
Thank you for your time yall , and sry if some or most of this has been answered before.

This is a VERY quick reponse to your questions. I used various sources like Conan.ch, ByMitra.com, templeofcrom.com which can usually always answer any questions out there if they have been answered by Dev's.
1. http://www.conan.ch/conanonline/interview_quotes.htm#blocking
2. http://www.conan.ch/conanonline/interview_quotes.htm#skills
3. http://www.templeofcrom.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=FAQ&file=index&myfaq=yes&id_cat=7
- 4 main classes, with multiple subclasses within your main class.
4. From a quote from Gaute, "The mounted combat will come in two forms. First, you can fight from horseback with almost any weapon. You'll move quicker, but you won't have as many combat options. You can't strafe with a horse, for instance. Second, you can access special moves which include charges that have a fair chance of flinging your opponent around as you thunder past.
As with any NPC player follower, the mount can be beaten unconscious, and can not be revived until the end of battle."
5. It will be more team/clan based pvp, but I am sure there will be solo pvp as well.
6. You can level in groups, but to be honest I totally forgot the number of people you can have in one group.
Here is a link to some of the technology they are going to use in AoC as well:

1.) I'm not sure for this, it may be like other MMO's where before each enemy attack you either dodge, block, parry, etc.
2.) I say saw a post somewhere that said you would gain skill points every x amount of levels and you get to choose different skill, and every y amount of levels you get feat points which you can put in various feats.
3.) There are 4 main classes: Rogue, Mage, Solider, and Priest, and you choose at lvl 5. Each class also has a "sub" class. There are about 4-7 sub-classes for each class.
4.) Not sure.
5.) I am pretty sure it will be mostly team based. Honeslty, the "ganking" to me is a complete sign of boredom in someone, I think this game will have plenty of things to do for people
.
6.) I don't think anyone knows about this. We will probably have to wait untill beta to find out.
Hope this helps.
1.) yes, blocking with shields and weapons will be possible, but is not controlled by the player and is instead an automatic roll done by the server. Its fairly safe to assume there will be some kind of skill involved
2.) Unknown, but it should be rather complex whatever the exact details
3.) 4 main archetypes warrior, preist, thief, and mage, each archetype has 4-8 classes you can choose from at level 20
4.) possible, but very hard to hit anything at all while moving. The standard strategy will likely be to gallop off, stop and shoot, then run again
5.) There is a bounty system in place that will supposedly prevent gankers from getting away scotch free. pvp will center around massive group sieges, but single and small team pvp will also be in.
6.) possible, and believe it or not, the max number in a team depends on your teammates. players with the commander prestige class (1 of 4 chosen at level 40) will expand their teams max slot by one. normally, max numbers in a team is six, by including commanders, you can get up to ten
Good luck, but next time you might want to ask in the official forums instead
No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.

1.) Combat system looks great but i have seen no blocks in vids .... so will there be any blockin in game (with weapon or shield) or maybe by raising some stats?
Yes, as stated above. Shields, weapons and skill will give you the best defense.
2.) What kind of char development will we have ; standard like str,cha,intel etc. or many various skill like in anarchy online?
Your standard character will level "X" amount in STR, DEX, INT, etc.
3.) *I know , am blind , but i couldnt find answer to this* I know 3 races, how many classes?
24.
4.) Ranged mounted combat ... possible?
Sure is.
5.) Will there be ganks in game or will it be moslty team based pvp?

From what I've read, there's going to be;
Yes PvP, or Player versus Player will be a central part of the gameplay in Age of Conan, and we are truly focusing on this part of the game to make fun, brutal, action filled and fair. There will be three main forms of PvP:
Drunken brawling is a hilarious, unique and very “Conanesque” PvP form where every player, regardless of their level, can fight it out in the bars and taverns of the world. Your fighting ability here depends on how much you drink, and what you drinkJ The more you drink the more pain you are able to endure, but the less chance you have of hitting!
PvP mini-games is a selection of mini-games, like Last man standing, King of the Hill and so forth (as you know from FPS games), but with a unique Conan twist, of course. These fights will take place in areas of the world dedicated or designed for PvP combat. To level out the fact that many friends have different abilities and levels, we also have a PvP-leveling system where we have divided the 80 levels into 4 PvP tiers, where you will be auto-leveled up to the max level of that tier during the PvP fight.
Massive epic battles – This is the ultimate large-scale PvP form where guilds and coalitions of players can build their own cities in the border kingdoms, and fight it out in massive battles. Just think of it! Engines of war, mounted warriors charging on horses and camels, formations of players struggling for every inch of land, tearing down walls or breaking through the formations of the enemy!
6.) Lvling in group , possible? If whats the limit of players one groupe can hold?
Thank you for your time yall , and sry if some or most of this has been answered before.

I believe 10?
Ill buy you a beer in game ,acctualy a whole barrel , so you wont be abel to hit me in drunken brawling
The drunken brawling is actually the only thing I like about Conan.
I'd probably end up,after grinding 20 single-player levels,just sitting in taverns and starting fights for no reason in various and interesting ways.
I'll use your own dang barrel against ya!
