Maybe some people would like to say some things they enjoy or otherwise about the new content.
`
It seems that many people enjoy the collectibles from tapestries etc. I thought the list was pretty far-reaching and that the reasonable amount of collectibles required was going to allow more people to benefit from the items.
The 3 main quests in the Orchard of the Macabre instance are neat, they do not in my opinion have the same unique appeal as the Gianthold pre-preraid quests did upon first impression. But, I think the storyline behind them is neat, and they offer a new set of challenges. There is nothing here that was similar to the impression I had the first time I ran Prison of the Planes. So far I have only played my cleric through them and I'm sure I will have a different viewpoint upon running other classes through. I was afraid that mobs would be all incorporeals, etc. but it is pretty diverse through each quest.
I like the Orchard instance and that it's filled with explorers, etc. Finding the lay of the land is getting easier with repeated explorations. I just think some of the creatures are a little nasty, LOL.
Pre-raid quests: Just plain cool. I have enjoyed all 4 of them so far, I like that it is all tied into the main storyline and that it actually seems pretty substantial. We had a lot of fun with the black dragon, and it was cool to see how they would render an adult black dragon. It is nice to have a challenge again as far as working together to figure out how to defeat the bosses, and some of the challenges as in Mentau's final room with the levers and so forth. Again I'm sure my perspective will change playing a non-cleric.
The raid: I'm excited to figure this one out. So far the mechanics of it are pretty interesting. I like the way they designed the main battle area and the rooms that you port too are also interesting. I will say that it offers a lot of new challenges that we have been yearning for in light of the wait between mods. Fun stuff.
And finally, the things that make me laugh the most:
Mentau, the Fleshmaker
The zombie train of body parts... I'm not sure why, but it does
Wishy making the bats dance in the Otto's Sphere
Anyone else have any thoughts or things they enjoy about new content?
