<p><span style="color: #00cc00;">I'm hoping for WIDE open Spaces rather then "outdoor mazes" Although I do wonder if parts of Velius will be a level 100 and have to wait for the next experiance cap to play in that part...s<em>peaking of which, could we also get that place across the river in JW</em>? </span></p><p><span style="color: #00cc00;">The fact that I could never get ther always bothered me and would add another hig level area to existing content, maybe the Rime are pushing in there?</span></p>

I believe it was said that the level cap could possibly reach 150, but that was ages ago. Secondly, that's assuming the xpac will raise the level. Even if it did, and lvl 100 was as far as SOE wanted to go, they could still release new xpacs that dont raise the level. In no way will this be the last xpac, imo.</p>

<p>That was before the entire system was chucked mutiple times.  I don't think there is a current hard limit</p>

<p>I'm anxious to see The Wakening Lands since Woushi's betrayal and also am keeping my fingers crossed for Thurgadin to be a huge Tradeskill hub with the addition of the Coldain prayer shawl quest!  I've been waiting for Velious since release and am so glad it's finally almost here!!</p>

<p>Hmm, as I sat musing over my last post - it would appear that we have a total of about 3 years of expac viability. </p><p>Just enuff time to finish up and deploy EQNext (Smacks of the EQ1 timelines with the EQ2 Launch)</p>
