Return of the Shissar feedback

[Gytask]

finally finished quest 3 last night and here are my feedbacks:

1. the first boss is a dps zerg. i couldn't pass him with my slow dps set-up. finally beat him with 1 war, 1 clr, 1 shm, 1 mage, 1 necro, 1 wiz, shm has his rk2 buffs and mage/necro/wiz all have their donor weapons, and wiz has her donor legs too. i remember boss 3 from quest 1 used to be like that and finally he got tuned down a bit. would the dev consider tune this boss down a bit as well? this instance is aiming for "mid tier" raiders, and i think people in poair gear might have a hard time with this guy.

2. 2 hours could be tight for the instance. i ran out of time once as i was messing around, killing trash to see what drops, and also see what stories quest npc's have to offer. but if the time limit was put there to have a sense of urgency, i understand.

3. minor thing on thought crystal - seems this thing only worth 5 radiant crystal, and it's a semi rare drop. maybe dev would consider to bump up the value a little to make it worth a while. after all, even trash can drop up to 9 radiant crystals at once.

4. minor thing on the quest item of that troll's finger - took me many, many, many kills to see one drop. i don't know if this is designed to be this low or i was very unlucky. and the reward you receive from it ain't really worth it. but again, this is minor.

5. no lev, no coh in zone, and i actually liked those. coh can trivialize a zone fast and i could totally see the case here. with stick command, crawling is not bad at all.

over all, i like this instance a lot. it's something refreshing, and brings back the dungeon crawl feelings. 2 hours well spent. big thanks to viaon. i am excited to see the next one and the ones after.

I think the side quest rewards should be increased. 5 points is not worth doing the quests when the trash mobs are dropping 4-9 at a time.

I agree on the other points about the dps vs hp of boss 1, and also the 2 hour time limit. If I were to come here when I was in PoAir gear I don't think I would have finished it.

fun zones and fun fights so far, cant wait to see what task 4 is like =)

Very good points here, thanks for the feedback guys. We'll adjust the tasks as they are coming out. Expect the next one to be released today.

Changes made:

o All Return of the Shissar Group Tasks now last 3 hours.
o The side quests in Task #3 now reward 20 Radiant Crystals.
o The side quest in Task #2 now rewards 30 Radiant Crystals.
o Arch Lich Xarathu was tuned down some HP/DPS wise. Also he will not start spawning adds until 20 seconds into the fight (increased from 10).
o Trash in The Return of the Shissar Group Tasks will no longer enrage (Huzzah for pet classes!)
o Increased the drop rate of all trash items in Task #3.
o Both quested items in Task #3 received a slight boost to make them more appealing.

Just a heads up. The boss #2 in Task #4 is broken right now. He was healing for more than I intended with the script. I have it fixed and committed to live, but it may not take affect in some instances. If you are having issues with him, then burn as fast as you possibly can. He was suppose to be capped at 30% heal but was doing a 60% heal.

I think the time limit is still 2 hours in Task 1. That is what it said last night when I first zoned in.

Fixed in next reboot.
