    Default Fix Wilderness on Next Update, eh?

    So you're not going to bother fixing the wilderness areas until the next update?

    So, too bad so sad for everyone who uses epic Orchard and Thunderholme to level?

    For everyone who uses the heroics areas to finish that last bit of XP?

    Guess I'll log back in on the next update.

    We know what's wrong, it takes more than one day to fix it. Rather than delay all of the other fixes that are ready, we are releasing those and also getting you the fix to Wilderness Areas as soon as it's ready.
    We don't only build for the builds that exist.
    We don't only build for the builds that are good right now.

    The fact that some changes are necessary is not diminished by the fact that other necessary changes have not happened yet.

    The vitriol that is all too often on display on the DDO forums never ceases to amaze me. What entitlement!

    Thank you for keeping our game going devs, despite expected bumps along the way. It's amazing to me that this game continues as strong as it is, with all that it has grown to become. So glad for it!

    Entitlement is probably the word of the century.

    And thank you devs for the continued work on wildernesses, a great way spend down time.

    This^, in so many words, is how you say time and feedback on Lamannia are wasted.

    Still not sure what's wrong with them. Are people saying ONLY rares give xp, or everything is working BUT rares?

    You can have the fixes that we have done now, or you can have nothing now and the fixes we have done plus the wilderness area next week.
    Pick one. You can only pick one of those options. Which do you pick?

    And some slayers. Wheloon was OK, including the citizens. Stormhorns is not ok, and killing animals does nothing. As of now.

    So Vale worked 100% as did Amrath

    High Road worked EXCEPT rares

    Stormhorns explorers worked, slayers DID NOT (didn't stay long enough to get a rare)

    Cogs slayers/explorers worked (again, didn't stay in long enough to get a rare)


    Not sure it means anything, but the 2 areas that worked 100% for me were ones that did not have heroic/epic versions, but a singular version
    Playing (and dying) since Open Beta...

    I've found that slayers that need multiple kills to achieve zombie train/carcass eaters in orchard, spider ambush in Vale, etc don't give the XP or completion for achieving that particular encounter.
    They do count the kills towards your total though.

    So yeah, it's a few thousand experience out of hundreds of thousands of XP for the slayer areas. Not a huge deal imo.

    I was killing things on the way to quests in epic gianthold wilderness yesterday. The giants were still counting for slayers, but the hobgoblins, gnolls, and such were not counting towards the Other Races slayer category. So some slayers work and some don't I guess.
