Same goes with leveling? How would that work for each expansion?

There are some serious problems and if they were to ever go the horizontal route it would take 2 years or more of development time to develop and implement.
Not that i think this will happen but they could use the +1-3 augment system where it get better over time with challanges quests. I don't think we ever will get horizontal as long they gonna cater casual before long term active players.
