Hello everyone! We know people are getting excited in anticipation of our upcoming expansion "Rising Tide", heck, so am I!

Anyways, we want to hear your burning questions about what is to come!

-Post your questions in this thread
-We will do our best to answer them when we have the information at hand.
-Additionally, we will compose a F.A.Q. about the expansion which will include answers to your questions for everyone to see!


Please limit your posts to questions about the expansion! There are plenty of discussion threads elsewhere b:chuckle

If you haven't heard about Rising Tide, click here to check out our preview!

P.S. Keep in mind that we won't be able to answer questions instantly, so check back every now and then to see our updated responses.


Rising Tide F.A.Q.

Will there be new territories for guilds to battle for?
A: Absolutely.

Will the squad limit still be 6 players?
A: Yes. Even though the total number of classes is being raised to 8, we still feel that a squad of 6 is ideal for group type content.

Will there be new quests/content for high level players or only new quests for Tideborn 1-19?
A: There are some new quests for all existing classes, as well as the quests for Tideborn 1-19.

Will Psychic and Assassin be multi-gender like Wizard/Blademaster? Or will they be restricted like Barbarian/Venomancer?
A: The new Tideborn classes will be multi-gender.

Will there be an underwater dungeon?
A: There will of course be new content that takes place underwater. At release there will not be an underwater dungeon, but that doesn’t mean that it isn’t in the pipeline.

What kind of flying mounts will the Tideborn use?
A: The Tideborn will use a new set of wings exclusive to their race.

Will the level cap increase?
A: No. The level cap will not increase with the Rising Tide Expansion.

    i r gotz zee question:

    when?
    I was early taught to work as well as play,
    My life has been one long, happy holiday;
    Full of work and full of play-
    I dropped the worry on the way-
    And God was good to me everyday.

    I would like to know how Rebirth will fit these new classes. I.E can we still have a rainbow squad with bonus beans without one of the classes?

    Which leads me to my next question:

    Will squads be limited to 6 members still?

    Also, what will you offer to those who wish to experience these new races. A lot of people will re-roll to test them out, but experience the lack of levels in the higher instances.

    Also, how do you plan on weaving the Tideborne into the quest line of the game? Will other races get new quests to go explore tideborn and battle underwater creatures?

    TW related, (we are all wondering this) If you release new territory, how will it be sorted in order to be fair to all land owning territories to have an opportunity to bid on the land, even if they dont border it?

    Ive got tons more....but Ill let you chew on those for awhile :)

    O i got another questions 2 add to that list, Since there are "Archer only" or "BM only" Genie skills, does that mean their are going 2 be new genie skills for Tideborns, or if not will the config some skills 2 be "tideborn only" skills

    will the psychics have a control ability? as in, will the psychic be able to take control of a mob/veno pet? or will the psychic have the ability to call forth a summoned creature?

    also, will the psychics have the ability to sacrifice their own life to revive another player? (or something similar)

    "Through the darkness light can always emerge, it is only when the unwilling come upon this light that fear takes over. Emerging from this darkness takes more then courage, it takes faith in ones own mind and more importantly in ones own heart. To deny the light is to deny yourself the feeling of true happiness and true peace within your own soul. Denying your own happiness and your own soul is denying all that one has to live for."

    Yeah, okay, this is a spinoff of the build/skills questions, but...

    What would the roles be of the new classes?
    For instance: barbs are tanks, clerics are healers, BMs are secondary tanks and DDers, etc.

    Will new armor type/style will be introduced, specific to tideborn.
    Same thing about weapons.

    Will game story be partially rewritten to incorporate the new race.

    Will the char lvl cap increase.

    I have noticed the tideborn has fins on their body though screen posted everywhere, how will that affect armor/fash.

    Thx.
