Athelan returned last week to answer 18 more questions about Age of Conan on our forums. The topics again covered a broad range and a few rumors were put to rest.

"Can you confirm I've got the instancing setup for Conan correct (just to be sure we're talking the same language, by instancing I mean merely making a copy of a zone for any reason [for instance I'd call DDO completely instanced, even the city zones], and not just limited to dungeons/raids/etc.)?

Outdoors - not instanced
Cities - not instanced (?)
BKs - not instanced, no player cap (?)
City building interiors - instanced (?)
PvE cities - instanced
Tortage nighttime - instanced
PvP minigames - instanced
Some (all?) dungeons - instanced (some have caps of 100 players)
Anything else I'm missing?"

Athelan: "Your summation is generally accurate. We do not instantiate Outdoor area's etc as much as possible, but we do some quest areas, dungeons, PvP mini game areas, and resource and building playfields (PvE player cities)"
