oh dear... you really have done your homework.Originally Posted by ThePheonix
Merit points. I know next to aboslutele nothing about. They apply ONLY to people who have reached level 75, and trust me, that takes a while. If I were you I would ask a level 75 about it once you get teh game, if you're really interested.
As for your second question. Yes. It's as easy as just talking to the guard outside of the residential area of whatever city you want to live in. Your home country is only the country you have allegiance in, you can live anywhere you want, and freely move your home from one city to the next. You can also change allegiance as well, but that requires quite a bit of money to do so.
