The Restless Isles & Gianthold GO EPIC!

[xxHazexx]

Both of these adventure packs are really great items to take part in and to have. However, i would like to suggest a few changes.

• The Restless Isles.
  The idea for the pack is great and the loot is really sought after especially for the usefulness when leveling (that's debatable but let's not argue semantics) but few if any players still run this content, do something with it to make it thrive with life again. I understand that you developers have your hands full as it is with MOTUD but this is just food for thought for possible future content fixes, upgrades.
  
  
  
  
• Gianthold
  This adventure pack is really great and has a great theme however most players only run it for xp now, (end game players mostly) The truth of the matter is we don't need anything from GH anymore and frankly Reavers Fate is simply boring to run/pike. Along time ago in a far away land you guys accidentally made Gianthold TOR epic and we were locked out for some time. Everyone debated and discussed the developers next move in our conversations. Not sure what happened their but i absolutely think this would be a way to go with the game, Nothing like 3 epic dragons of different elements with an epic spin on it. Not to mention all of the named loot that drops from TOR & RF and a chance at upgrading our RF loot into epic.

Just some food for thought.

I thought after the Sands and VONs went epic we would see these packs go epic because they both have several named items and raids.

They could improve sales on the Restless Ilses by going epic for sure.

I still want to see epic tempest spine.

Our chances to see Epic Gianthold died when they upgraded the items in that pack with Stormreaver Seals. That move made those items kinda viable again, i dont see the epic gh happening after that.

I think you are right Melt. Here is my alternative solution for the Titan and Tempest Spine raid at this link.

I am in absolute 100% favor of this.

Imho, Epic Gianhold Tor/Reaver Fate is good material for epic difficulty. All others are just dont epic.
Feast and Famine Epic, just dont sound right.
Also Tempest Spine Epic - yes yes yes. This quest has more raid feeling than VoD, ZR & HoX together.

Hmmmm. Epic Crucible? Can rarely find people with high enough reflex/evasion to do it on elite at level. Imagine an epic swim

Elite traps hardly differ in difficulty from epic, eg. elite Monastery > eSnitch

In epic Crucible water will be full of blood hungry piranhas, and you still cant fight underwater. ;-)

If you need to make a save in the crucible swim, you are doing it wrong.

Tor was already Epic, for all of 15 minutes and then it was shut down for days.

With the seals available now, as someone already stated, I doubt we will see Gianthold go epic again.

I wish the rest of the loot from Gainthold was upgradeable. Hell look at how many items come from just Tor.

Perhaps this stuff didn't go epic because people complained about how hard it was to make epic Sands items because of how many named items are out there.

[MsEricka]

There was some kind of bug, I am not aware of what it was so it was closed and never reopened (obviously).

[karnokvolrath]

I had reall hoped for epic gianthold but as said before, the upgrades basically killed that idea. Im not exactly why they squashed the GH epic plan but oh well.

I really like the upgrade seals and i hope they add them to more things, Titan would be a good one.

Other ideas would be the shield/helms from necro.

Anyway.../signed epic GH was all my hopes and dreams when epics came out. Id actually buy restless isles if they made it epic and fixed that horrid map.
