Will the toolsets that event managers have been given allow them to create events independently from the dev team, or are they just to manage events more effectively?

With excellent material tracking you will find Superb Mission materials ;)

I think thats what he means :p He (And many others I think) don't want to be finding mission mats at all when prospecting for "normal mats" or at least for exc/supr mats because there are more Superb/whatever mission mats than exc/supr normal mats :p

I heard something about Fyros being ranged-specialised pre-release... I see two problems with that:
1) Everyone says ranged sucks right now, so they better darn well fix it :p
2) I would have thought us mighty Fyros would be more into melee ;)

Then again flaming launchers are just so amazingly cool I don't mind ;D

Why is it then, that the generic bowrifle plan is available from a Tryker rite ??

I think it was a rumour from beta times with only 3 races available. then tryker were patched into game and had taken over the role of the range fighting specialists.
but it could also be:

fyros - melee (maybe melee&range, because of guards wearing axes and autolaunchers)

zorai - magic (make a new zorai char and klick on the "play" button, nice magical animations are shown by the char)

tryker - harvest (yes, I know very funny, not easy to lvl there)

matis - craft (yes, I bought my first ql 250 2hand sword from a matis, tonight! *g*)
