From the linked article:

The big question is, how do you avoid the problem of a level 50 player absolutely destroying a level 1 newcomer? Kang had an answer. Basically, the idea is that the levels are divided by class. The first 10 levels are the basic class, while the highest 10 levels (41-50) are the elite class. Level 50 characters will have more socket skills at their disposal, as well as more weapons and armor, and they'll usually battle other players that fall into their class. Meanwhile, lower-ranked players will battle in their class, so the disparity isn't so great.
So, what's going to stop a level 50 Elite from ganking a level 1 noobie onthe city streets? Is there no combat on the city streets? Can't you call out someone on the spot? Maybe you just can't target them for attack? The only fighting is in the instanced missions/battles? Anybody know?
