Alt Progression - Suggestion

[Koeril]

These are crafted or bought?

Kobold Skin Bags, if they are as you list, still can't compare with Tae Ew Hide Sacks. Tae Ew Sacks have 100% WR, and are ten slots, able to hold GIANT items.

Nor should they ... the only way to create Tae Ew bags is to get to about level 60 at least so you can farm CT and then obtain about 200 in tailoring (which you will likely be 70 way before this anyways). You can't seriously expect something that good ...

[catthib]

No, more like seriously wishful thinking. Especially after you get spoiled from having them on your other characters and then you log into a character that doesnt have the luxury of having all that space and weightlessness, especially in an area where not much coin drops but a whole lot of tradeskill items do, and you are already a serious packrat...

Crafted.
I will also be doing some re-arranging with tailoring, and lowering some of the componenst needed for final combines a bit.
RE: pack rat - I am a pack rat too But I have no problem walking around the dungeon with 286 lbs weight over my STR of 96, cause every cold iron weapon sells for 2 plat .
Back in the days of Blackburrow, my necro was "crawling around" with as much as 300lbs over 60 str collecting the rusty sword till every single slot was filled =)
On LIVE a simple 10% crafted backpack was looters dream, and at 80plat each it was very expensive at lev 20
Too bad Bags can't have REQ levels on them
Also: there is no giant items dropping in Warrens, so you really don't need giant slot bag

UPDATE:

Kobold Bag now: Kobold Skin Backpack, Capacity Giant, 10 slot, WR 10%, Weight 1.0

new recipe added:

Bat Leather Bag: Capacity Large, 8 slot, WR 20%, weight 0.5

ALSO: reduced number of needed raw components for final tailoring combines by half.
Also: upped the drop rate of things that suppose to drop off: bats, batlings, plague rats, and rabid kobolds.

(progress end lines Idea)
I would like to see the hole be used in the alt progress. For storyline reasons you could have the guardens destoryed by Minions of Brell after they reopen the seal. Have a tiny camp of Paineel guardions right at zone in(for selling goods and quests).
Anyway you do it, I just like the hole alot and like it ot have a face lift

[ChaosSlayer]

The Hole would be open hellova zone to do full revamp, as its a nightmare of a maze, and whats important I am totaly unfamiliar with it, and I don't want to do just add random loot drops kind of revamp.
ATM I have the progression planned out for about 3 zones ahead, when they get done, we can see what can be next =)

[catthib]

Oooooh!!!! The Hole WOULD be a blast to revisit. I have a lot of fond memories of that place, even when my Druid ran off the edge...man, gravity is a witch when it works, I tell ya!!!

I strongly urge you to explore the Hole as a possibility. You can't go wrong in that zone, it has all sorts of goodies to offer!!! After all, mazes=minotaurs, just think of the fun you can have with that!!!

Can not -wait- to see what these next zones will have to offer, even though I am by no means ready to leave the Warrens yet!!

Kudos on continuing the excellence with the tradeskills, btw. I reiterate, once again, that this server has been able to get me to do tradeskills, unlike Live EQ, where I would sooner poke my eyeballs out with corkscrews than do tradeskills there!!!

I spent countless hours in the hole being a magician on live, it would be an awesome zone to revamp, keep in mind that you don't have to use all the spawn points.

A cosmetic change: Rat Blood Ale will become an actual drink (from alcohol)
