About the clans: It doesn't matter if you are level 10 or level 200. As I said before, each clan will have a represantative on the cities around. That allows you simply to join every clan without heading for the headquarter. It will be like the Dragonhunter Clan. Kachim for example (the Fire Magician at Dar'Saye) will allow you to join the Fire Clan and become a Fire Magician. He will teach you basic skills once you joined.
@Zasranets: Unlike before the new skills system is providing plenty more damage as the previous one. Every stage will increase the dealt damage by 10%, which is providing a very good outcome. Compared to the old system, you had to use plenty of more skillpoints and money to deal the same damage as it is now. About the skills I agree with you. There are 2 slots available for combat right now: Primary (left mouse) and Secondary (right mouse). Up to that there are the 3 passive slots. Right now there is not a much list of skills available, but that will change very quickly during the alpha once all clans are implemented. To ensure things are speeded up, I either thought about a quick change system (like a hotkey combination) from which you can switch to another defined combat group. The other idea was to implement a tiny sub-menu besides the skills, listing all available skills which can then become selected.
Which one would you prefer? Or would you like to have both?
