- Do the skills work kinda like Diablo II with a skill tree?
No, you get new skills by doing quests or buying them from a trainer. Your STATS are updated like in diablo II.
- I'd like a fun class thats not too compicated. Melee?
The only real melee class is warrior.
No, every player is human although you do fight nonhumans.
You "disenchant" aka "salvage" items, take the mats to a NPC, pay them in gold to craft an item from the materials you got from the salvage.
You will be bound to your enviroment. You can not jump off most hills or cliffs. You will also find many invisible barriers that keep you in the areas the devs want you in. Once you enter an outpost, it appears on your map and you can teleport instantly to any of them via your map. You will not encounter any players that are not in your party in anyplace other than the outposts.
If you have a fast machine.... you can do load locking:evil:. Everytime a member of your party leaves town, the entire party is forced into going into the zone they enter. If you have a fast machine, you can just jump back and forth thru the instance and load lock them so they can not do anything.
You might also want to join the
