New low-level adventure zones?

[Lithic]

I was saying that if you could touch all the content in a game on one character, without throwing away xp, as you just stated above, then a game has too little content. Since you mentioned in your first post that you were afraid of 'outleveling content', and did not mention throwing away XP, I assumed that was not part of your plan.

Well you can rest assured that there is way way more content than you need to level up

Even if you completely ignore all the adventure areas, I think doing each quest once on elite is enough to get you to 14.

a level 1-4 raid?

lol...

Imagine...u bunch of people who don't know their toons playing in a raid...specially one where you need to split the party..

And no one has truned on VC yet...

OoOoHhH....NoOoOes!

WoW has this on the Horde side, and it's just that bad.

There's an Instance (WoW's version of Raids, kinda) that you can enter at level 13 or so (out of 70).

It's a *complete* cluster 90% of the time you go in. And it seems to sour people on the idea of Instances, other than the loot, which isn't that great. I'd really say having a 1-4 raid would be counterproductive.

Now, freakin' kobold island? Yes. I don't know *what's* up with that. During my trial I spent an hour there going "No, seriously. There has to be something important, right?"

I think Turbine should make a concerted effort to update ALL existing outdoor areas with the Wilderness XP tech. Even though the Waterworks sucks noodles with its 35-40 creatures per instance and slayer objective of 400. As previously listed, we need to see the following upgraded:

I disagree. In places like the WW and Steam Tunnels i prefer the old system. You kill a group of 2-5 enemies, you get 30xp. That way every time through you get something. The new mechanic is only good if you spend a lot of time intentionally trying to farm it. And if you are doing that you could get better XP/sec questing. It's nice to have a few of these things out there, but we don't need them all to work that way.

That instance is rather poorly designed though. In a lot of ways it's more difficult to many higher level raids. And it's the respawns that usually wipe groups in there. We generally have to deal with respawns less in DDO

I'd really say having a 1-4 raid would be counterproductive.

It's hard to say, exactly, what 1-4 means. I would want something around level 4 base level. Lower then that would be somewhat of a waste since 1-3 go so fast. A level 4 raid would be great for anyone levels 2-7 or so on normal(obviously not at the same time). With hard and elite taken into account it could stretch to 2-9/10 depending on how the enemies scale. Whatever it is though, i just think a low level raid would be a lot of fun, and a good way of introducing people to raiding(preferably without the wonky Tempest Spine map, which is probably most peoples first raid).

They took it off the favor list. Really wierd caves and what not exsist for those who have poked around it. This is my bet for the next adventure area. Just my two cp's.

Well then I'm good. As far as your OP question, I thought the devs stated that they've converted all the areas they wanted to the new system. In other words, they are done.

I would be quite interested in seeing where/when they posted this. Can you remember anything about the thread name/content? Or was it a dev chat?

I request an upgrade to Canada, I hear it's sorely needed.

Game already has enough Swedens.

Ok other than a low level raid they need to stop adding low level content. There is plenty there to get someone to level 5 without leaving the harbor and without repeating any quest other than on normal hard and elite. The only reason for new low level content is so people who are leveling their 20th character dont get bored. Seriously there is plenty of stuff there to keep the new players more than happy (other than the raid, which would be cool to see). WE DONT NEED MORE LOW LEVEL STUFF SO PEOPLE DONT HAVE TO REPEAT STUFF WHEN LEVELING AN ALT.

I have to agree with this. We need more higher end content. A low level raid would be enough imo. Spend your time on higher lvl content please

Added Restless Isles to the list.

This would make a really good zone IMO.

Any official word would be nice, even to say "we don't know"

Don't make me start spouting poetry!
