More Ramps Please

Post by Rainswept »

There are several areas like Island of Dreams and Dragons Eyrie that have islands where people get stuck repeatedly. Would it be possible to get ramps on some of these? DE in particular is really annoying because if a reset has happened you can't get back without using more items etc.

I'm surprised noone has responded to this. It's a problem I run into all the time, I sorta expected a home run as far as support for the notion lol.

as far as a ramp down this could be exploited by people going on top and snipering down. . but i do think maybe a portal that connects back to the beginning portal or something would be a good idea. . as long as there were these portals on top of all of the cliffs.

or simply put the ramps on the far sides of things so that you'd have to run around through monsters to get on top. A way down without having to hope for a DM is all I'm asking.

Heh. It happens like every other trip in DE or IOD, dragon or not. It has something to do with the way 1.69 handles spacing is my understanding. I've had it happen other places too. It's very much like getting stuck on the tiny little ledges in the nexus and HoD, except no one can knock u off. You either hope a DM is on and has time and inclination to come help, or you hope your friends can clear enough enemies to let you recall and come back.

I've actually only been there twice. First time was months and months ago with maybe 10 people before I got distracted from NS4.. that trip involved PC dragons. People ended up on the cliffs. The 2nd time was just within the last month or so.. we had like 14-16 people.. no PC dragons, no people on the cliffs.

I've never been to DE with any dragons other than myself except once and it's happened to me tons. In fact it was my unshifted dragon who most recently got stuck.


Happens almost as much in IOD as DE. Probably more, since more people go there.

The tower is only a problem with shifting. So long as you're not silly enough to turn into something in those very narrow halls, you should be ok.
