New Cerulean Hills Quests

[kingfisher]

Ok i forget the names but whoever made these 2 little gems needs a promotion, seriously. I finally got around to running these with a bud last night and i have to say i was pretty impressed with their overall entertainment value. They have great looking landscapes, and had many many mobs of various classes, some new tricks (the barricade was pretty cool imo), long enough and spread out, they really give you a feeling of hunting orcs which was cool, challenging enough for a lvl 3 i am sure, interesting and worthwhile (xp wise) optionals, and provide nice xp (average 1,800 on hard for lvl 4-5 in 20 minutes going slow). Whats more they make use of a great area that has long gone underused.

My only problem is that many ftp wont see these quest and that is a shame, cause they break up the kobold killing boredom that sometimes gets to you while leveling in stormreach. Maybe add another quest or two out here so the ftp guys will have more reason (xp wise) to purchase the c-hills adventure pack? also like how the rares, explorers, and slayers xp seemed beefed up there is like 5-6 k to be had out there now it felt like.

now on to the Searing heights and our long awaited lowbie (lvl 4-6) raid!!! please?

oh my bad i thought i saw a splash screen for it as adventure pack. thanks for the correction, that is much better if they are free.

[Cedwin]

Yeah a friend of mine was out there running around with me and she is on a F2P account, so they do not have to purchase it.

That's very nice of you to say. We had a great time making those.

Cheers!

Ooh. . . guacamole and pirates. . . guacamole and pirates. . . I am liking this combination. . . maybe with a little bacon on top?

if killer tomatoes can ransack New York City, i expect you to be able to have guacamole and bacon seize control of stormreach!

First, I not only agree, but I would say the same thing about the Sharn's Syndicate Series. These quests are absolutely awesome - they really are. Come out and Slay in particular - nothing like it in the game really - beautiful.


So the question is, why do we have quests like Invasion and Bastion that are so monotonous that I want to gouge my eyes out in the same content release? Serious question: promote whomever made those lowbie quests; and fire whoever thought going through virtually the same obtusely long, nearly identical floors, with nearly identical mobs, over and over again, would be fun.

Add me to the list that found the new "lowbie" content to be very entertaining and visually stunning.

I realize that the powergamers have been grinding the Shroud for a looong time, but it was nice to see a little more content for the newer/lower toons in Mod 9.
Whether solo, in a full group, or anywhere in between...I have had a blast in the new levels.

[Dirac]

Yep, started a new lowbie and ran these for the first time. Very nice. Interesting and fun.

you deserve it chica, keep them coming! orcs are so under-used in this game imo, and the class spilts in the various fights in this one were great, i kept thinking of my old pnp days while playing this quest, which is awesome. it really reminded me of an old old module that i can barely remember anything about except a red cover, a farm, and orcs lol. more quests like this at various levels would be much appreciated. a high level one set up like this would be great! i imagine hunting down 20 CR orc cleric/wizards while dealing with the various manyshotting rangers and cleaving barbarians would be a great change from constantly beating on portals. if you build it keeper, we will come!

agree with sam too, the syndicate is fun as hell too!

now let's get back to talking about that lowbie raid you are putting together for mod10.....

I stumbled across this a few days ago, and must say... it is a nice break from the normal quest run. Lots of stuff to explore, mobs to destroy, great scenery...all around good fun. Would love to see more of these type Open area multiple self contained quests/xp awards.

Kudos to the Dev Team.

It was alot of fun taking these two quests down solo pd I would like to see longer, faster versions.
