Risia and Mod 7

Right, if you aren't going to have an mid-mod updates, 10-12 weeks is fine; 16-18 weeks is unacceptably slow.

Also originally what we were told was that we would see an amount of content that would be equivilant to a mod plus the monthly updates at once, this has been very far from reality, as we have seen less content overall per mod with mod 5 and 6 than we did with monthly updates and mod 4. Mod 7 has literally 5 total quests, three are low level. 2 raids at high level while nice, will be used up by the time mod 8 comes in Sept /Oct. Remember we are going to go 9 months at least without a lvl increase, so that is another 6 months to go at lvl 16.

Say what where did you hear that Mod 7 has literally 5 total quests. All I have seen is there will be two raids, 3 quests in the pirates cove and no mention of how many total quests there will be. I figured they would put in some sort of flagging mechanism for the two raids whereby we would have to run quests in order to get ready for them . That is the way they have always done raids through this point and why would this mod be any different..

untrue, they stated before there would be new harbor quests for the monk update, and theres almost gonna have to be flagging for atleast 1 new raid, so deposit 3 to 5 more dungys.... so got 3 there, 2 raids, 3 from 3 barrel cove, and let say 7 (id guess 6-8 for harbor) so lets say 10 low lev dungys, 3 high levels, 2 raids, monks, oh and lets not forget the first half of the crafting system in the deconstruction phase... so shall i keep goin... you know sounds to me like a sizeable update.

This was an interview that came up on March 31st where this question was asked
"Let's move on to Mod 7 -- we know the Monk class will be out, as well as a high level wilderness and a raid -- did you release names for those?"

With a response from Kate Paiz, "Nope, but you'll get that from us in about six weeks?"

6 weeks = May 12.

There was also another interview that i currently cannot find that indicated Monks would be on risia at about that same time. If i find it ill edit and stick it here.

The only quests that have actually been confirmed is the 3 quests in the new 3 barrel cove outdoor area, the intro of fedex style quests, and 2 raids, the harbor quests changes were commented on very early, and it looks like it became the 3 barrel cove area> looking at the interviews all she dsays is that they are changing the lowbie experience so that it is not the same old harbor quest to level up. Again since we have no official anouncements from turbine who knows what else is there. With AoC coming out it would benefit them to highlight just how much is coming out, right now we have only interviews etc.
