The Hidden Forest

i ran into a few things last time i played on the alternate progression side but i waited a bit too long to post so ive forgotten a thing or two so ill post the things i can remember for sure.

when turning in armor pieces i made a mistake and gave the peices to the master tailoring guy in newb yard. this wouldnt have been a problem except that he did NOT hand the items back.

the other issue i noticed the most in the warrens was a lot of through the wall agro chaining mobs onto me. i realize this may be an emu bug but just thought id point it out.

as for some feedback.
there are certain things that seem to be missing from the alt p area that are however in regular areas that kind of baffle me. for instance the epic guy. from what ive seen of the epics in comparison with the alt p difficulty i dont think personally it would be out of line to have at least the epics available as a quest. even if it was not available from lvl 1 maybe start it at lvl 10 ish. the armor i can understand becuase there is a very decent set of crafted armors and personally i think id rather see this crafted armor replace what we have on the regular side since it would be more in keeping with later questing requirements for armor.

weapons in general seem a bit scarce in my opinion. i was not aware of a rule regarding not transfering gear from one side to the other so in the interest of getting a 2hb better then a dong i put a 2hb undecided stick in the shared bank.......made a world of difference.

the general premise of the alt p side is that it is easier to progress through but so far it seems to be designed to be a more hardcore experience.

overall i really like it ive played on servers before that claimed to have an alternate progression but in reality it was just some uber hard quests that required you to box or have an extremely high tradeskill lvl. good job guys

On chain agro- hmm i didn't really noticed much of that - I played with 3 characters there. Agro through a door or around a corner - is normal, but didn't really notice if mobs would agro through a solid wall

There are are weapons in the Alt-P that roughly equivalent to the 1.0s in the main line.
But they not as easy to obtain- did you talk to the Weaponmaster?

Other than that:
-you start with Standard Issue weapons
-Cold Iron and bronzewood are dropped occasionally by common mobs
-Named mobs drop even better weapons- usually the Forlorn kind
-and the best weapons have to be crafted and enchanted

And I will check on the Tailor.

thanks a lot the chain agro wasnt an all the time thing for all i know i mght have hit a lag spike and ran ahead while not seeing it just seemed like a couple times i would get agro from places in the warrens that made no sense.....no line of sight kinda of agro. as far as 1.0's vs what you get.....the cold iron weapons and what not seem like it would be a lot later in alt p to get something thats close to a 1.0 where with reg progression you can if careful and lucky have one at lvl 1 or 2....just my observation. over all i really like the alt p and the only reason i stopped playing it was....well i wanted my monkey to be outa there and i wanted to be lvling faster cus i love monks :p
thanks for the response and ill keep ma eyes out for anything else.

well you don't automatically get 1.0 in main line neither, you still need to run around a bit to get the crystals.

But here few weapons you can actually obtain in Warrens if you put effort into it: (for a monk)
