    Default Perma flag for the Necropolis Crypts

    With some of the raids out there (VoN) becoming perma flagged and only having to complete the pre-quests once, can the 3 Necropolis Crypts be changed to be the same way? Bloody, Shadow, and Cursed Crypts.

    I think the reason they don`t want those perma-flagged is because of the trinket upgrade process. ie. If they wanted to upgrade their trinket 3 times they could skip Necro 1 and Necro 2, just do the Necro 3 quests... and once perma-flagged for Necro 3, repeat it three times to upgrade their trinket.

    Mind you most people would just do all them anyway just for the favor and xp.

    I find its best to just wait until I am high enough level, get an elite opener, and then do them that one time.

    Regarding Necro 3 specifically, it already works exactly as you describe.

    As already mentioned, once you flag for Necro 3 you can run it over and over, unlike the first 2 quest chains in necro.

    Considering cursed crypt already lets you permaflag and upgrade a trinkett very quickly and easily (especially at lvl 20), there is no reason to bother making a permaflag for the lowbie quests. Anyone who wants the exp out of there will either run the other 4 or have an opener. Everyone else will likely do both the flagging quests and crypt on elite for favor, then move on.

    I have a rogue 20 that I'd love to TR, but she can open Shadow Crypt. Srsly.

    I'd love a flagging change.

    Necropolis 1 to 3 are not part of the raid flagging process.

    They're not talking about the Abbott raid here, but about the final crypt in each pack that you have to flag for...

    Most people who have alts will leave one perma-flagged for opening a Crypt.....and just use it to unlock for a group and simply switch back to the toon they want it on before they start. I'm pretty sure as long as the opener does not step in there will be no XP penalty if it's a high level character.

    It's also very easy to set up with a Wiz/Sorc.....as Wall of Fire owns the first two series.

    Exactly my point. My Rogue 20 may never see the next life as long as she's my Shadow Crypt opener.

    The thing about the Shadow Crypt is that, as long as you're running it exclusively for the Devouts (as opposed to the awesome XP it can net you), you'll never need to reflag for it unless someone messes up and hits the vampire's altar.

    You're given Dimension Door clickies at the start of the quest -- use them, skip completion, loot away, and have another go.
