Yeah, the only thing about that is that hopefully they'll keep with this seriously reduced master drop rate, and earning our 3 pets will mean something again. But I'm all about 3 new pets, I just hope the graphics on them aren't complete shit LOL. Red basilisk FTW

It would own if Drafling was converted to a high level zone lol - killer bees, like in EH.

It seems to me and I don't know why this happens that in a MMPORG the need for zones starts out like a pyrimid on release you need a ton of low level zones and very few high level zones. Where as the game progresses the pyramid inverts. So why wouldn't you take a bunch of the lowbie zones and convert them to high level areas (where the player concentration is). It would also make it easier for lower level characters to find groups as the places then have to look shrink down a bit.

Anything that makes me stop farming PP for Masters will make me happy.

This is totaly and utterly rediculous waste of time. Lets see what people got in EOF for 1-60

G-fay,
Crushbone,
Crushbone instance,
Steamfont,
Mines of Meldrath,
Lesser Fae,
Butcherblock Mountains,
Klakanon,
Court of Innovation,
New Tunaria, (hardly counts as t7 nothing cons above green.)
I'm sure im missing some here.

T7
Loping Planes,
Castle Mistmoore
FTH
CWM
MMIS
EH
OOB
Crypt of Valdoons
Achadacism? fucking joke, could do it on a 60-62 toon.
Unrest
now. lets see here lets add ALL the quests, all the named for AA, all the loot everything that they can get in this new expansion from 1-60, and now lets see what t7 gets. Sorry, i was done with everything non raiding within 1 week. The AA grind to 100? yea, i mentored and turned in collections / quests, and then just grinded. Real exciting shit, non raiders beating the xpac in a week.

No offense, but get a clue as to where the population in this game is. How many people do u see runnin around in Oblesk of Lost Souls, Feerrott CT, i bet u add those zones together u dont got the population of loping planes during middle of the day on a saturday.

The majority of this game is T7, granted not all. Your statistics are thrown off by alts, yea i got a 60, 43, 12, 55 and 2 70's I find it sad, My guild is lucky to be down to 7 mobs in this expansion that arent random spawns ( 6 avatars and contested mayong) and you are making a new DFC that will con grey to the current teir of EQ2?

where is the rest of the epic line... where is the new raid zones (thex ive heard rumors of) When are you going to finish bland unfinished zones like New Tunaria, and add some content / quests in there? When are you going to fix Charm lag, Delevel lag, when are you going to make it so i cant bug my ranger to 56% runspeed w/o a single AA? lol

releasing an expansion in this state and then fixing zones THREE EXPANSIONS AGO, this is what, almost 3 years old now this zone? I find that a slap in the face basically.

AMEN on the New Tunaria comment. What a horribly unfinished zone. Such a huge effort to design it and build it and only put in a few quests.

How about putting in a few griff towers in Zek? Running to DFC is an utter pain in the ass.

And what are the orcs going to do, not throw spears and shit at the griffins? Seriously, asking for griffin towers in Zek is dumb.

New Tunaria, unfinished? I didn't think so, it was as finished as it needed to be. The Swords of Destiny quest was planned for the zone which added to the zone, and I'm sure we'll be back there for another later stage of the quest.

I will agree that New Tunaria could have been much more, and I hope it does become that, with an instance, and some contesteds added in there.

Kudos on the clean up of DFC its nice to see things moving forward. The population in these zones is still decent, not as much as when it was new and fresh, but there are lots of people there. At least that is what I've been seeing on the Kithicor server anyway.

Seriously though, what stops mobs from throwing things @ griffs anyways Or the trees in Nek Forest from reaching up to pwn ya.

Also, I would like to see the castle used in there, for an instanced zone or something.

It is always hysterical to have a good emo rant use this phrase. It conjurers images of the development team sitting around a giant conference room, sleeves rolled up and glasses newly tapped. One of them suddenly slaps his hand on the table and screeches, “Fuck level 70’s. Fuck them up their stupid asses.” After the 30 minute tangent into Kevin Smith movies ends, they get back to how they can best insult end-game toons.

“They are just so arrogant, running around not needing xp. We need to do something to really show them who is boss.”

“I know!” says one, leaping to his feet so fast all the mechanical pencils fly from his pocket protector. “We can redesign older zones.”

“Brilliant!” Says the lead developer. “That will really be a good slap in their face. Get that on test right away."

Then they all march off to the forums to see how their declaration of war against end-gamers is received, all the while cackling with maniacal glee.
