Revisiting Korthos

[gwlech]

Epic Korthos. This may sound totally absurd, but hear me out.

Imagine a top guild entering Cannith Crystal Epic. CR 30ish trash mobs that cast max/emp polar ray, sleet storm and dispels. Group wipes 7-8 times before they can actually finish it. Cleric drinks 40 pots.

Imagine groups of level 20's fighting over components to epic-ize their korthos starter gear. Now imagine standing outside of the quest waiting for the last couple of members, while having countless random players opening up trade windows and begging for handouts.

I think this would add an interesting, yet cruel and entertaining experience to the epic experience.

Thoughts?

I thought an epic Misery's Peak where your group fights the dragon instead of breaking the crystal would be cool. Subdue the dragon and then kill the flayer.

Or....Break the Crystal and the Dragon kills Mind Flayer and then comes after party.

In case you haven't noticed, an archer can damage the Dragon back in the earlier parts of MP when he is fighting Jeets, and Celimas. Maybe the Devs had the ability to fight the Dragon in Mind when they designed the dungeon.

Haven't epicced much myself, but this could be fun for a few visits.

Even better, if they were made slightly easier than the other epic quest areas so you can use it to convince the slow-buyers to spend their Turbine Points on quest packs with epic.

Or even better, kill the mindflayer, a purple named mob. He could, after all, be one bad dude. Optional Kill the dragon afterwards (cause hey, we didn't do it in prey last time), and killing dragons is just fun anyway.
