I'd be more surprised if they didn't do something like that. The 40 class system sounds perfect for using microtransactions in one of the ways players tend to find acceptable: convenience. They already said there are 8 starter classes to choose from, but the one you pick doesn't preclude you from getting the others after you start. So if you pick a Wizard but want the Druid's abilities, you can unlock the Druid through questing or you can pay $15 to unlock it immediately. That doesn't make it "pay to win," just lets you pay to get something a little quicker.Fixed your sentence there for ya

They specifically mentioned the Flowing Black Robes as an item that would be returning for nostalgia purposes. Not much more than that.
Until you find the poopsocker that has enough money to blow on unlocking all 40 classes at once for instant godmode

Well, I don't if I would call it 'levitate' persay, but the "running around the desert" video had the characters wearing Boots of the Zephyr, which let them glide through the air. Your call if you want to call that a clickie, as well.
No sign of the others yet.

There are premium classes in most MOBAS. Also the mobs in the game will probably be like those games too. Either "creeps" that you kill millions of, or big ones that you have to kill with your team.

in MOBA's everyone is kind of a dps because it has to be balanced. Even ones classed as tanks or support are not far away from a pure dps.
how the progression works is more important really.

Which I'm sure is what SOE would be hoping for. These F2P games are primarily funded by "whales" who often spend hundreds of dollars in the e-store.
I suppose I can understand people's crestfallen reaction to some of the EQNext news when considering bards. If playing a bard is dissimilar to being a crack-addled squirrel, I will be disappointed.

SOE won't be selling classes. SOE is going to sell templates, various pots, various looks for your weapons and other shit. There'd be a shitstorm if they sold classes.
Also for the people bitching about Blink and ShadowStep being almost the same fucking spell. Give me a fucking break, half of the spells in any game or minor variations of the other half.
Let's play the beta when it ships and then rip it to shreds
Anyway, I've got to stop fucking white knighting SOE since I'm annoyed they made EQN instead of EQ3. But please stop taking crazy pills.

I'm torn, part of me is really disappointed that this won't actually be EQ...But part of me is pretty pumped that this seems be like the kind of Diablo, in terms of thousands of variables per gear/skill/builds that I really wanted--that and I'm pretty sold on a Pokemon game.
So from now on, this will EQ: Diablomon to me.

I with you buddy. EQN looks fun, OTOH, I really prefer EQ's unique classes and downtime with my combat. As pointed out EQ comba could have used a polish (basically adding in VG's OT/DT to give tanks something else to do, and healers something else to do). That with all the rest of the EQN stuff and I could have played that game for years. /mournI'm torn, part of me is really disappointed that this won't actually be EQ...But part of me is pretty pumped that this seems be like the kind of Diablo, in terms of thousands of variables per gear/skill/builds that I really wanted--that and I'm pretty sold on a Pokemon game.
