    Thumbs down Why Tempest Spine not epic?

    They should have made epic tempest spine, then they can throw all the seals and scrolls of that quest into the vons as well. It is kinda of a no brainer to increase a lot more use of running these on epic. Tempest spine is a very well loved and fun quest and out of all the raids it would be likely the best to become epic.

    I am highly disappointed that the raid that came out with same modual would be excluded.

    tempest is a no flag raid so getting tokens for the upgrades IFthe tokens are to be seperate would be crazy.

    But if epic tokens taken from anywhere can be used anywhere i could see it working.

    That being said the loot from that quest is junk and would need serious upgrades and bind on aquire status to make it work.

    I think tempest spine will be deserving enough to be worth the epic token considering both von 6 and DQ is just a single room with a boss. To get to the boss in tempestspine and collecting what you need is enough of a prequest. It is a very good built raid.

    As for **** loot, that would change if they make good epic versions. But throwing tempest spine seals and scrolls would give vons to have more of an assortment to be on equal to the number of DQ epic items.

    I want to see epic TS too.

    TS has a moderate number of named items - enough to make it non-trivial to get a full set of scroll/seal/shard but without the crazy grind required to get a full set in the Desert.

    Plus, the Devs could add some new named items (unbound, min level 16-19) that drop only on Epic TS, that can also be made into epic versions.
    I don't have a zerging problem.

    I'm zerging. That's YOUR problem.

    Fixing the map would require one to assume that people would actually ever think of looking at the map or using the map, EVEN after you've told them 32 times to look at their map.... NOOOOO THE OTHER NORTH!


    And yes, and Epic treament of TS would be nice

    If they make it epic, it should be a requirement to clear the outer areas as well.... not many people know the zone "Oh, i got thrown off, how do i get back", they just know the run to the cave...

    I can only hope they have read our numerous requests for Epic TS and plan to deliver.

    Forget Epic TS loot, I would just like to play an Epic TS.

    Add in the ebboron shards of small (stack of six), medium (stack of 3), or large to the list. (why these? these items are tradeable for potions of xp/loot. I don't think the pots themselves are.)
    Stack of 10 major neumonics, etc.
    ingrediants to be used in crafting non epic stuff.

    I wouldn't bother sticking in any epic loot into TS. At least not yet.

    Hmm.. the more i think about this the less I want it, All of us old school players could stomp our way through epic even if everymob had 10000 hp We just know EXACTLY what to do in a difficult TS. On the flip side if they made it harder enough to challenge the oldschool Vets then no knew player would concieveably be able to beat it IMHO.

    Well don't be, because it never did.

    Tempest Spine is original game release content. It was the only raid in the game upon release.. And also available in very early beta.

    The Vaulf of the Night series was added in module 1.
    There were other quests added in the same update, I remember the Vampire one in house P was one.. But not tempest spine.

    I imagine eventually they will give it an epic option.. There's no any logic to the order they will update the older content, seems pretty random so far. The only real pattern is that they tend to select quests that have allot of named loot or raids that have allot of raidloot. Tempest spine is a raid that has no raidloot, it does have some named loot, but not as much as other areas that have been updated.

    im sure they will make an expic version of this sometime or another, just wait for it. too many ppl like this raid, so ofcourse they are going to make an epic version. the fact that its F2P might cause an issue, but thats beside the point.

    It will come, just you wait.

    Well, I think the VoN series got the upgrade first because they also had to tinker around with the flagging mechanism.

    But an Epic Tempest Spine would be a lot of fun.
    Things worthy of Standing Stone going EXTREME PREJUDICE™ on.:
    • Epic and Legendary Mysterious ring upgrades, please.
    • Change the stack size of filigree in the shared bank to 50. The 5 stack makes the shared bank worthless for storing filigree in a human usable manner.
    • Fixing why I don't connect to the chat server for 5 minutes when I log into a game world.
    • Fixing the wonky Lightning Sphere and Tactical Det firing by converting them to use alchemist spell arcing.
    • Redoing the drop rates of tomes in generic and raid loot tables.
