View Full Version : A New Quest Pack Idea

My favorite quest pack in the game is Attack on Stormreach. I love the storyline, the humor, and how it continues off of the F2P Diplomatic Chain. There are multiple quests in the chain that require you to do something different each time and allow you to solve problems different ways. The enemies are well done in the wide differences between the weaker kobolds and the armored ogres.

I would love to revisit this chain in a third part to the story where the adventurers go on the offensive to destory the Droaam armies. The quest pack would consist of traveling to Droaam as an elite defender of Lordsmarch. You and your party members would then spend time infiltrating the Droaam war bases and working towards your goal of preparing to kill the Droaam army commander. A final raid could be created for the pack in a setting like picture portals. In essence, a large Castle/Fortress with multiple floors and rooms that require you to do different tasks.

It would not be a traditional hack and slash raid, however, instead requiring cooperation and the use of skills. There could be secret tunnels in the castle, a way to scale the walls, and having different objectives spread out on the oustide and inside of the fortress. Team members in the raid could split up to do different tasks such as freeing prisoners from the Droaam army, poisioning the food in the kitchen (using bluff to gain access or simply brute force), weakening the enemies' fortifications on the outside walls, until finally engaging the commander in an epic battle after his forces have been sufficiently harmed.

I was thinking of a level range around 14-15 or perhaps a bit higher in the 17 range. I just think that it would be a fun area in which some cool quests and an awesome raid could be implemented.

I had the same idea one time, maybe you'd be able to fight the other Daughters of Sora Kell, as well. Such as Sora Teraza and Sora Maenya and finally be able to finish off Sora Katra.

That is a really good idea and I think they would make some interesting bosses.

Yeah, but they're going to have a hard time trying to top armored Ogres riding on the backs of Rust Monsters.

Maybe they'll have Trolls on chariots pulled by Beholders.

I think a Medusa driving a chariot pulled by a beholder would be terrifying and so much fun to fight.

Some part of me thinks that Turbines agreement with Wizards on Eberron only allows them to stay in the area of Xen'drik because lets face it if they didn't we would of hit Sharn and the Mournlands and other things long before now. Instead we stay on Xen'drik and occasionally go to other planes.

I for one would love to see a graphical representation of the city of towers but I'm not holding my breath on it since we can't get shifters, kalashtar and other eberron flavored stuff.

Bowserkoopa,

Lets just travel to the Mushroom kingdom and defeat the Mario's Nintendo is sure to allow that.
