Hi all!

The following two Legendary Creatures have been spotted prowling in the scavenging Caves. Travel to the Caves at your own peril!

Polar Spine Chomper (Legendary)
Posted Image

Being an arctic predator, prey is hard to come by for the Polar Spine Chomper. It will charge its new prey as a great ball of camouflaged fur with gaping maw and rapidly freezing drool. As it feverishly devours it's prey, it takes great care not to damage the spine of its latest victim, which the Polar Spine Chomper, like the rest of its vicious kin, will keep in an ever growing trophy collection.

Recommended Level: 650+

Recommended Gold: 25,000


Red Spine Chomper (Legendary)
Posted Image

The Red Spine Chomper, like its blue cousin, keeps the spine of it's prey as a trophy. However its mouth acts almost sawmill like in the process, with you being the tree.

Recommended Level: 150+

Recommended Gold: 17,000

These Beasts will be in the caves until driven off! (Approximately 48 Hours) Enjoy.

We don't need anymore of these in the game!! Unless you're trying to make them all sell for gold.... where is balaurs, octo, fury, etc?? any of these would be so much better.

Dear Forn:

Could you please tell us what the criteria are that help you make the decision on which LE's to release into the caves? People have been screaming for the Balaur's LE, people want that set, and there are hardly any in the game. And here comes the Polar Spine and Red Spine Chompers. I just checked the AH for these...there are plenty of these items available in the game, so it can't be to replenish supplies. Polar spine sets can be had for 10 fsp, and by the end of the weekend will probably be 2 fsp or maybe even for gold. Red Spine sets can be had for just a couple of fsps.

Please, explain to me how this works. I am a guy who sometimes sinks millions and millions of gold into scavenging, but this weekend I am afraid I will not spend even a single gold scavenging. I realize there may be some people who welcome these, but I would dare say that it will be a very small minority. So please, could you just give us some insight into how you make the decisions. Thank you so much for everything you do to enhance our gaming experience.

Sincerely,

DaleJunior

P.S.: When BigGrim first introduced the Scavenging LE's we were told that Spine Chompers would never again be in the caves after all of them had run their course. I'm just saying.

Forn, with all due respect, you have made scavenging events to be a rare treat. Many in the game look forward to them for two reasons - one, because it's one of the VERY few times when gold is actually worth anything compared to FSP, and two, because it's an opportunity to get access to some useful drops.

Therefore, when two spines are released - one that is virtually obsolete by dint of volkers, the other that's only useful in the arena - it's depressing, to say the least, since we likely won't see another event for weeks.

polar is still good from 650 to 710 combined with either Takeos or Ormarrs

One Reason: They will not accomplish the reasons for scavenging, which is GOLD SINK!! Forn, I really don't want to complain, but you have to see that by releasing these 2 creatures into the caves, people will think that you're just messing with us on purpose. You said yourself before that your intention was to have new LE's released into the caves along with others that are useful. I feel you've made a grave error with this release, and if it's another 2 or 3 weeks until the next one, that will be about 6 weeks with no scavenging and no gold sunk for me and a LOT of other gamers. Please...reconsider before the weekend is truly upon us. Or if nothing else, at least add some others in there WITH the spine chompers, just don't make then the only ones. Again, thank you for everything you do for us in the game.

For PvP, it's okay.

If you're using Takeos to level with instead of the trident, however, you're hobbling yourself.

And I don't use crystal in PvP anymore, what with breaker/disarm run amok.

+5000, dale. You hit it right on the nose.

Scavenging events are supposed to accomplish gold sinkage, Forn. If you release drops that aren't worthwhile, what's the point?
