That’s what I originally thought as well and posted in the spoiler thread - that it would be like in other MMOs - but you might remember that Sirrian said on the Q&A stream that it will not be like what people had been suspecting in the spoiler thread. That’s basically the only thing we do know, actually. You were also part of the discussion, but in case you don’t remember, here’s the link to where it started:

What we have from the Q&A is the confirmation that it will NOT be like anything suspected there by anyone.
