Based on suggestion here: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=11013&start=100

Quote Information:
Darkblade wrote:With Vex Thal out, new quest for a key on access, and a debuff for folks who have not completed DSK... Can we now look at reducing the point requirement for DSK3 access? We can bring it down to 10k which makes it possible for newer folks to get access to the zone, and bring back some older folks who ran out of content and did not enjoy the grind for access. It would be in line with things done in live and in other games. Since DSK is no longer bleeding edge of content.. Makes sense. The debuff in VT is motivation to get into DSK and the lowering of the grind would make it much less tedious. Remember, new folks would still need to down content in there to get the debfuff reduced.


Leaving it up to the community. As everyone knows we have no issues with bringing content within reach of more players. So will leave this poll running for a week and see where it stands at the end.

I'm not complaining or whining about the idea but if the limit is reduced, what about the HoH points, earlier people used ?

Some of us are not perma connected with a lot of HoH points in bank, if the limit is reduced, then those who already get the access to DSK3 would have wasted (in a sense) 15K max of HoH points by toons, sounds unfair to me.

If everyone is allright with that, just forget my post :mrgreen:

Although I can understand your argument Conradd, I can't think that way. Fact to disagree for the only reason that some old players have spent a long time to do something so we don't want to make it easier for new players is not very constructive. There are tons of situation where we have finally chose to ease the way for new players (or just old players starting new toons, like Nilbus, or even I recently).
I haven't voted yet because I don't know if I pick 10 or 15k. Probably 15k because it makes more sense since Chaos is 15k too.

It's a good idea to help those new to the zone/server/coming back after a while.
Not sure how long HoH has been out but when you just enter it these days, it feels like you're going to spend a year or 2 in it just to buy some armor and items, let alone a 25k pts key.

I wouldn't make the kills inside any way easier.

My vote would be to have Chaos drop the flag so folks could access DSK3 with a Chaos kill OR buy a flag. If that was an option maybe it should stay at 25k.

I'm fine with lowering the barrier to entrance into DSK3, but I'd do it a different way... I'd sooner bump up the point value awarded for killing HoH/Nadox trash and boss mobs or reduce point costs across the board. All things being relative, it's silly that one little aug should have the same 10k cost as permanent access to a whole new raid zone. Increased point generation would make both easier to obtain - and really there should be no hard feelings because these points have been around for 2 years already. Just my 2 cents ;)
