The following is a summation of all the Questions Asked since the announcment. Some were answered in other FAQs but since they keep getting asked they'll need to keep getting answered.

I've shortened some questions (mainly because many answers only provide information to part of the initial question) and I've linked to the answer in every case. If you notice anything broken let me know.

General NGE Questions

• Can you explain a little more about how Damage Decay will work?
• via Tiggs: Item decay has been removed. Item decay upon death  has been removed.

• Concerning "fast action combat:" Is it twitch combat like you see in games like Planteside and Counterstrike? Like EQ@ and DAOC's?
• via Thunderheart: I would say that the speed of combat is  somewhere in-between these two.
  There is deinitely a lot more action, but it  isn't twitchy as the First Person Shooters out there.
  One of the things that really makes a difference is that you are clicking on your enemies to attack them and not the toolbar. For me, it centered my attention on the combat. Not having to split my focus between the actual on-screen combat and the toolbar made a big (positive) difference IMHO.
