Star Wars: The Old Republic's advanced class system revealed

Star Wars: The Old Republic's official website has been updated with new info about the game's advanced classes system.

According to the site, each of The Old Republic's four classes will have two specialized advanced classes to choose from, although what they will be is still unknown at this time.

Each advanced class will grant access to role-defining abilities, and some may even grant new weapon and armor types. Additionally, the advanced classes will also have three sets of skills available to further customize your character - two sets unique to the class and one general set available to both advanced classes.

The advanced class system sounds similar to both World of Warcraft's and Age of Conan's, and will hopefully provide some much-needed depth to character creation.
