Zone Bottleneck

Post#1 » Fri Jun 12, 2009 11:35 pm

With the obvious popularity of this server i would like to ask if you were to make another zone or two just like GUK...

As a new player, i am finding it very very hard to even level in GUK, much less get any gear i need. Its a CONSTANT and i mean CONSTANT state of 55+ characters running thru all of guk wiping it out. As a level 30 something player, i am finding it very difficult to get anything i need. There are level 70 mages parked in the lord room with a pet killling everything as it pops, you got mass trains of level 70's ripping the zone apart for their 4th and 5th tier bots gear, that they just use for buffs. I have yet to get 1 piece of gear, rangers sit there spaming track and run right past you when they KNOW you are going toward that named, but have to fight to it, they just run you over. And pretty much the attitude is ..|..

Please, consider another zone or two with the same stuff? i cant play here when i am having to compete against people 30 levels higher then I for named mobs. The zone is a bottleneck.

Agreed - the headhunter quest did cause an adverse effect in that it brought people back to Guk who have long since left those stomping grounds. PRoblem is that Karnor's was created to be a "mirror" zone for that level range, but Karnor's is a bit higher than Guk. Karnor's is just hard to break into for a level 30 and it's more for like a level 40 and up. To make matters worse, you can't even calm pull the 4 spawn in the entrance to get a single because 2 mobs hide behind a wall.

100% agree with the above. We are planning to make new zones from lvl 1 to 60. It's just hard to find the time for it atm, sine building up the basic content takes lots of time (if we want quality). but I can promise that soon we'll open at least 1-2 more zone for each lvl range.

Thanks for the input!

Something I did just think about ... every time this happened to me in Guk/Karnor, that level 70 wasn't there for the gear, but only for the named kill credit (though I'm sure some are there for gear though). It could be a longshot depending on the person, but maybe striking up a conversation might help and they'll help you know when something is rotting. Making connections like that could help you too in the end game when a guild can be a tremendous boon.

And Lillu, we do understand that this is still a Beta server and I for one am VERY impressed at the level of communication you and Tyler have been giving. You guys read and listen to everything and really care for the players. Even though the base content may not yet be completed, you have already done so much in the past couple weeks I've been playing. I think 3 zones in 2 weeks is pretty impressive and just want to say thank you for your hard work.
