Planar zones - another negative rant??

[Celorn]

H3LL N0!!!

I am totally amazed and so far all my expectations for what the planar areas have been met and exceeded many many times over!!! I'm VERY impressed - some of the things I, and others posted in the past with suggestions seemed to have been integrated right into the epic zones.

The planar zones are vaguely familiar from the previous incarnations of NS, but truly feel like a major upgrade! I love how it's quite a challenge to solo (well unless you have over 70ac and immune to crits--can't wait until PM's become REAL undead and can only be healed by negative energy ;]) and very fun in a party. The layout & size of the areas, the variety and creativity put into every mob blows my mind, and the loot is genius (especially some boss loot having some trade-offs to keep PvP interesting).

To all the Devs, DMs and anyone else who alpha/play-tested: THANK YOU! I'm hooked all over again, I almost can't wait for the rest to come in (so i can squash some spiders and watery tarts).

Now all we need is to get it all finished, remove the beta tag, then wipe all that crummy ns 3.5 junk off and upgrade all the servers to 4.0 with a shared vault ;].

Oh yeah, I liked the creative use of Tile Magic for the Plane of Fire, the whole thing looks like a scorched wasteland. Excellent!



Dwarf home also rocks too, some nice surprises there for the careless (like the hidden area transition trigger that dumps the unwary into another map!)
