Few IMPORTANT Ques...

Unraveling: Can you unravel enhanced items? Such as Val, Ver, DC, Gold, barbed, horned... Can you unravel those?

Flying: Does it take a few seconds to get going as it does like the ethy pump...

CHamps: Can humans/Elves get to ALL the champs? Or are their certain champs that ONLY cater to gargoyles... ALSO, Do the new champs have all one boss, or is it possible for a Barracoon to pop on one or all of them?

Throwing: Is it Swds skill... Or does it have it's own skill... Or is it based on your Sewds, arch, or something...

I can try to answer some of the questions. During open beta magic items could be unravelled but the imbuing guide located here: http://www.uoherald.com/guide/guide.php?guideId=282 says that special items cannot be unravelled. I guess we won't know until it goes live.

I haven't timed it but it seems like it is faster to get flight going than to use an etheral mount.

Throwing is a new skill and has it's own weapons. You get a bonus for having swordsmanship and you can read about it here: http://www.uoherald.com/guide/guide.php?guideId=281

I didn't try them personally, but anyone can reach the champs. As far as I know, they are built around their own spawn/champ and are not a rotating site.

They are two large and complex battlefields (with an added layer of rewards which Draconi described as using a Doomlike system in the HoC chat) each with their own unique spawn/champion and two entrances: one in a Fel dungeon, one in the Tram Abyss. But as of the open beta, they weren't yet finished.

Yes.

Yes.

All toons can go to the new champs/peerless. They have a set boss.

Throwing is its own skill, but damage is based on your distance. Up close, throwing takes a hit, but this can be negated by also having the swords skill. In other words, when you're ranged, your throwing weapons check your throwing skill; when you're toe-to-toe, your throwing weapons check your swords skill (if you have it). That's my understanding, at least.
Answers in bold.

Hm...well, in open beta, I seemed to be able to...but things may have changed. Wouldn't be the first time I've been wrong. o_O

But I can confirm for certain that humans/elves can do the new champs/peerless. At least, they could in beta.

Are you sure... people are arguing the fact that you only can unravel non enhanced items.
The original Q&A long ago said that you would not be able to unravel enhanced items or artifacts.

However, by the time the open beta rolled around, this had been changed.

( you can unravel enhanced items and you can enhance imbued items but you cannot imbue enhanced items ... that one restriction leads to a lot of typos in conversations )
