    Thanks again Jahlon, 
     
    Can you also talk about PvE aspects of the game for us that are not a true PvPer ?

    I'm more PvE orientated with a dash of PvP in me.  Can a PvE person survive in a game like this ?

    Looking for the Cliff Notes summary, more of a reader than a watcher.

    Can't get too concerned about combat mechanics until a game gets pretty well into development,  several titles (CU, CF, SC etc) have found it necessary to make significant design changes as they worked through delivery.

    Few games can survive player "ingenuity" without the devs having to put in significant controls to temper the more "creative" members of the community.

    Yes, there is going to be plenty to do for a person PvE wise.   As you saw the corruption penalties are going to be pretty stiff so I don't see this turning into a gankbox.

    TL;DW

    There is enough for people to do PvP wise that they don't have to go around killing people

    Meaningful PvP

      Castle Sieges

      Node Sieges

      Arenas

      Caravans

      Guild vs Guild Wars

      Node vs Node Wars

    Exactly!

    And exactly why they are dedicated Alpha 1 Phase 1 to Combat testing so that if the combat is bad, or the mechanics of the games are bad, we can fix it right away.
