All I can say is...HOLY OMG!

There is no ETA for Kunark. Rogean did broadcast last night on the server that there will likely be a Beta for it first. They have a lot of work to do before that is close to being ready.

Based on my limited experience thus far, with a 14 Shaman as my highest character, the only classes that seem lacking are rogues, rangers, and the like. Getting groups at low levels is quite easy. Higher up I could not say.

Not sure about the cultural armor.
