Funcom has announced their new Age of Conan offline leveling mechanic, introduced in the 1.07.2 patch that hit the live servers today. Senior Community Manager Oliver 'Tarib' Kunz details the system in a post on the game's official forums.
The new feature kicks off by giving each active account four levels which can distributed to any characters above level 30. Every four days, an additional level will be added to your offline leveling pool, again enabling you to bump up one of your post-30 avatars. The levels accrue regardless of whether you actually log into Age of Conan every four days provided you maintain an active subscription.
if you've got a gaggle of level 80 characters sitting on your select screen, the additional levels will be waiting for any new character that you create and advance to 30 or higher. Finally, Tarib notes that levels are permanent once assigned, so choose wisely. "Customer Support would not be able to take that level away from your character and add it back to your pool. So please be careful when assigning these levels," he says.

Good thing we have a jaded former customer who has nothing better to do than to hate on a game he no longer plays to come around and tell us. Constructive use of your time.

You didn't read his post completely. True there are many jaded former customers, but none of us waste our time to come rant at a game that we no longer play.

Its a great idea and have some good advantages for those in PVP servers. For those who seek serious socializing in MMOs, they may have hate on the new leveling system.
But on the surface, it will be another mixed bag responds from AOC players.
