Feldon Xalmat brings us this news from the Test server:
On Test, they opened up starting cities to all races that can be of that alignment. That means:
If you pick a good race, you can start in Qeynos or Kelethin.
If you pick an evil race, you can start in Neriak, Freeport, or Gorowyn.
If you pick a neutral race, you can start in any city.
In summary, the new starting locations for races:
- Fae can now start in Qeynos (Willow Wood)
- Frogloks and Halflings in Kelethin
- Gnomes and Half Elves in Neriak
- Barbarians, Erudites, Humans, and Kerrans in Kelethin and Neriak
- Arasai in Freeport (Longshadow Alley) and Gorowyn
- Sarnak in Freeport (Big Bend) and Neriak
- Dark Elves, Iksar, Ogre, Ratonga, and Troll in Gorowyn
That will probably also mean, when New Halas is released, Dwarf, Fae, Froglok, Halfling, High Elf, Wood Elf, Barbarian, Erudite, Gnome, Half Elf, Human, and Kerra will be able to start there as well.
