Cool.

We may adjust the droprate on the two othernamed, but they do drop. its just not very often.

Now what should we do for the NS Castle area and the relic. I think its too easy or at least too easy to seperate the npcs from each other and pick em off.

[Bargeld]

Go the route of NC where each map has 50 npc and only 2 feet between each.

[frogofpeace]

Ha ha! Give em Smite Evil while you're at it, praise Torm.

There do seem to be a lot of mobs in NC - why is that? Besides the fact that everybody wants to be around the beautiful people...

[Daral0085]

Don't the epic defenders already have smite? But I suppose there's nothing wrong with giving the rest of them smite too.

[DeputyDog]

Yea I think nc will be on my list for some thinning.

Giants has been tweaked(or will be after the rebuild today) and may lend some people to spread out. I need to test how the trolls are as they may need some tweaking.

Tons of trolls up there:



The upper three areas where the Tree Smashers start spawning each had about 3 or 4 spawns just like this. That's a lot of trolls. Lots of ogres like this too, but it looks like the Chunkers and Tree Smashers were thinned a bit. Some trolls near the end of the first part of the mountain too.

There was so many some of them managed to see through my Greater Sancutary. They weren't a serious problem for a level 35 but it got annoying enough that I dropped 3 earthquakes on the lot of them to get them out of my face.

NC isn't that bad, the spawns seem to be the same as they were about 5 years ago, and it wasn't bad once you were high level enough.

Hrmm, that shouldn't happen any more. Should only be 3-4 trolls a spawn.

[Elagneros]

Oh? I thought the devs were merely trolling the mountain.

[DeputyDog]

Yea spawns are more normal on the mountain now. Noob dev mistakes lol.

May beef up the troll and troll berserker, need some feedback on difficulty.

Ns city should be spawning alliance defenders but I'm having trouble hunting a bug.

Oh, and I love ultravision. Just throwing that out there.

[Bargeld]

Darkness breaks a lot of areas tho

*3 months later, somebody figures out that you can have a caster NPC cast UV 84 times in a row by...*

Until you get to the cradle and there are like 5 defenders. I could go for SL's giant cradle cluster. At least they have their priorities straight.

It does give you an idea of the power dynamics - NC guards the city, SL guards the temple. And NC are the religious fanatics?

[DeputyDog]

SL is pretty fanatic to their spider queen....

*Chuckels*, its a far cry diffrent than when tc has the relics, three ways in with only a single gate at one of the points. Not even a flap of hide over the Den entrance. Dragon delivery just 4 maps away. The den is even indoors, removing the outdoor bonuses of TC prime classes druids and rangers. Always reminds me a a flea market when it comes to defence.

Been enjoying the Sleeth sewers of late, but finnaly head out towards Tokyo (avendale).
