That's alot of new shit at one time.
I personally dislike Leadership XP.
Failed taunt messages = win.
Edit:
With new titles I am assuming they are adding additional levels.
To that I say:
f**k you SoE.

What's the point of adding more levels?
I don't get it.
It's just gonna make lower level raiding guilds fly through luclin/pop content and crowd the midlevel content more.

My guess is the new high end content won't be doable or will be very hard to do at level 65 .. /shrug

So wouldn't the logical thing to do, be to tune the new expansion to be doable by 65's?

Yea its so guilds like VQ can get elemental access and clear VT with 2 groups.
Seriously, wtf lvl 70? Shit is going to be so trivial it won't even be worth trying to sort through the lag in the zone. Pretty soon Ill be able to solo In ToV! Then eventualy I will clear VT on my own. Wait.. that was eqemu. This is going to get stupid if they keep raising the level limit.

Not to mention that Casters will get 66-70 spells, which will further the melee/caster balance gap.
wtfg SoE!

My vote is in this category.. there has been a lot of noise ever since PoP came out.. people wanted new titles for more AAs after the class title.
I really really don't think they will be adding levels so soon.. it makes no sense.
-Nah-

Well, ok. I'll wait till the expansion comes out regardless. And you will also. Neither of us has a choice in the matter.

The only way I can see additional levels not being devastating to the previous content (and they should have implemented this when they raised the cap to 65) is if they flag a LOT (and I mean like... all of them) of boss mobs from Luclin and below (maybe all of POP too!) to be like Naggy/Vox. Set level caps on the mobs so that a L70 uberfekker can't go clear NTOV solo in 30 minutes. Over the cap? Banished. Then, it wouldn't be so bad, it wouldn't be so disruptive.
Think of the alternative though... if they don't raise the level caps, how much more content can they really add for the high end game that will present a new challenge? They can only make something so difficult for a raid of 65's to achieve (ie: POTime). Without raising level caps or something, the next expansion will just be POP version 2.0, cause they can't make it more difficult really.

What new titles? The only titles in that list are the ones for the new "Berzerker" class. And they have the same number as everyone else has, so I see no reason to think that they will raise the level cap. Raising the level cap trivializes all previous content. I don't think they'd want to do that 2 expansions in a row.

If ya think SOE gives a shit what level 70's do to TOV you are severely over-estimating their concern with older content.

That's smart ... instead of making the current melee dps classes more in line with Wizzy DPS, they introduce a NEW dps class... which you will have to level from 0 and re-equip ...
You gotta respect their marketing team .. They are NOT stupid

I think the berserker was quoted as having some high burst dps so its more burst damage than sustained dps.

if you log into test and create a character you can actually see a box for berserker. However, no race yet will activate it to try one out and see what they are like.

Berzerker is on the char creation screen on test, but it's greyed out for all races so you can't make one.
And yea, Berzerker will most likely be a pure melee class that wears light armor, probably chain or leather, and will probably use swords/dual wield and have short duration high dps disciplines/abilities.
