The Hidden Forest

I remember running through the 3.0 quest with some guildies and its quite time consuming just for one dungeon crawl through chardok. one pull wrong and your toast. It seems to me that the prince / king & queen are all geared towards a group killing them yet only yeild one quest item a piece. It would seem to me that if it takes a group to kill them the group should be rewarded for it.

Would it be possible to increase the number of heads they drop? they are on a two hour spawn so its possible to repeat. At the same time, if you need upgraded charm pieces for an entire group you're looking at a 12 hour grind.

just my thoughts.

They drop 6 items I belive, each of them. So I think thats a fair group reward as is. and of course they aren there just for the charm upgrade pieces.

I have to agree with Topsy here. I play a lot, but I won't drive myself back down into chardok just to get 1 charm upgrade on 1 of my alt.s Only Jeido and Shig have their charms, and i'd love it on my other toons but it's not just worth a 2 hour grind for 1 charm. Could you just boost it up to 2 heads per? I don't think that's asking too much.

I am in the same boat as jeido here out of my three toons only topsy has completed this task because of how long it takes. Now that petulance is my main i'm gonna run down there and get another set but now i'm rolling against our new members. honestly i'd say three would be ideal but i'd settle for 2 like jeido. at least then more than one person in group would be able to finish their quest a run.

I would like to think that ppl go to chardok and kill royals for FUN! they don't?

but seriously, I dont understand these requests.. IF you want charm upgrade, you go and kill the roayals, if it doesn't worth it, you don't do it, up to you. IF you want it, you'll do it eventually. IF you want to do it for alts, and want further upgrades too, you'll even have to farm Ssra, get keyed for ToV, do the subquest there, and so on.. should we remove flag to make it simple to access ToV and be able to get charm upgrade for alts?
and yeah, you might say, hey, it's just another head from royals.. but I see it as another change request to trivalize our content. I hope you 2 see my point of view too. this server might be hard for the average progression wise, hell even time consuming sometimes, but what you get here, you'll be cheerful about it and respect it for a long time. thats the main idea of THF and this is my 2cp about the change requests for content trivalizing. no offense tho, we always can discuss anything, so I hope you dont missunderstand me!

I understand what you're saying about trivializing content Lillu, but it really is just a head. Chardok was fun the first 10 times we ran through it to get everyones main their charm, but after that it gets really stail. I have all the ToV charm parts on all my alts, but even with that it isn't worth doing a chardok run 3 more times just for a 200 hp boost. I'm even close to having all the ST parts, but I don't think i'll do it even still.

We're not asking to make a really hard to access zone open to everyone, we're just asking for you to understand that clearing through chardok is only bearable so many times. If people here only had 1 main, i'd say suck it up. But the fact is that 90% of the playerbase boxes, so that's two, three, four, even five times as many runs for people as would normally be required. This is where our request is coming from. I realize alts may seem un-important, but the fact is that 60% of high-end raids for both Prog and Evo are alt characters.

This is the last you'll hear about this from me, but hopefully you can see our side. It's up to you in the end.

Alright - although it makes no sense at all from a technical point of view, Prince, Overking and the Queen will now drop 2 heads each time you kill them.

I blame , um... the Chaos Lords!

You should add a nuclear reactor graphic near them to make it seem normal for them to drop two heads. xD

Chardok is a suburb of Tchernobyl in case anyone was wondering!

I used to live an hour from Chernobyl I thought I was dreaming when I saw those Sarnaks walking around when we went camping!
