Class/Archetype Character Progression

So I know you start out as your primary archetype, and at level 25 you select your secondary archetype creating your "Class". I know you can then augment your abilities through your secondary archetype, as well as race and other sources.

But other than secondary archetype choice and augments, has there been any other ways the devs have said that you will be able to grow/change your class? Feats, Talent Trees, Alternate Advancement Points, etc?

I am just wondering if every Spellsword, Shaman, (insert Class here) will be roughly identical as the next, or if the augment system is grand enough to accommodate different play styles inside the same class?

Do you have a link to the article or video that is in by chance? That is cool if so.

I'm sure it's from one of his early interviews, like 2018 or 2019, and I believe Steven's background was the old office, not his house. Don't really know which one specifically, I apologize.

@George_Black Go read the wiki until then. You have all the answers there

Lets keep it civil everyone, no need to start a war on this thread.

Back on topic, I think that each archetype wont have "Trees" like Life/Death for the cleric after reading the Wiki. I think the Primary Skills for the Cleric might have Life or Death skills to choose from, but it seems you will be able to spec into multiple abilities and "Go wide" or spec into few ability's but make them more potent and "Go deeper"

This seems to be a pretty cool idea. I can see one mage maybe going more "Jack of all trades" and have an ability for each situation, while another mage might only have 3-4 abilities, but able to decimate with those more "improved" abilities.

I do think after reading the wiki, the combination of Augments, Passive Skills, Primary Skills, and Weapon Skills most will likely be able to craft a really unique character.

Um. Every Secondary Archetype has 4 Schools of augments.
The two Schools that have been revealed for Ceric are Life and Death.
The two Schools that have been revealed for Mage are Elemental and Teleportation.

Those Schools reflect the Primary Archetype Active Skills.
Yes. We can choose the Active Skills we wish and each Active Skill has a least 3 Ranks, but... it's not the same thing as placing points into a Death path or a Life path.
At least, not for Primary Archetypes.
