I understand and appreciate extending the "end of game" content but is there any chance of adding content to lower levels? I am not talking about improvements but an completely new facets to the game on thier way? Not trying to complain just curious really

Yeah, once I've got a bit of time. I think I said in the thread last week that we are focusing on being ready for Halloween and Xmas as far as Content and events are concerned, thus it takes a wee bit of priority at the moment. Once that is all done and in place, I will sort the sets.

:roll: This would be good! Did the formula for the new sets even get finalised? Last I saw they were looking into it again as it felt the new bonuses weren't enough of an improvement?

Great work on pumping new content out, looking forward to something new for Halloween/Bonfire night, or maybe even something wicked for Mischief Night :twisted:

We are pretty happy with the formula as it is at the moment.

Halloween and Bonfire Night will see the return of last years Quests, though Halloween will get a few additional Quests for higher up. Halloween itself? Who knows? :twisted:

I think this was a great content. Stairs were there, quest was there and was fun. I liked the high defense creatures.. even lost my kill streak, but it was still good. Only 2 things. First, one of the first part of the quests was to "Kill 400 Xerdes Saboteurs and be quick about it as I don't know how long I can avoid attention.'" But, the quest location only asked that you kill 150. Also, the "Use the Overflow and meet me in the Opyly Pass (Gap)" was kind of annoying. It reminded me of SS2 where the area had no creatures or anything. It was just an area you had to go to in order to get to the next area. So just a bit of walking through it just to use stamina. Aside from that, I thought it was great. Maybe 1 more thing. The elite bonus? I know my set isn't perfect or anything, and it's all attack damage, but 1938 attack and 3215 damage for the items, only to have a bonus of 56 attack and 84 damage? Anyway, thought it was awesome! Thank you for the quick updates!

I hope it is not 400 ... I had two of those in my last leveling session and boy are they painful. I thought hoof put a stop to anything over 150.

It's not. The guard says you have to kill 400 of them, but the quest location says 0/150? So kill 150 and you're good. But.. the last portion of the quest before the elite asks, "But the Xerdes has crafted Stone Hoplites to protect his hiding place, Kill 300 Hoplites of Stone so we can gain access to the Watchtower." Yes... you have to kill 300 that time.

Edited the Quest text.

Also, the "Use the Overflow and meet me in the Opyly Pass (Gap)" was kind of annoying. It reminded me of SS2 where the area had no creatures or anything. It was just an area you had to go to in order to get to the next area.


It fits the storyline, and makes a bit of thematic sense, that's all.

The elite bonus? I know my set isn't perfect or anything, and it's all attack damage, but 1938 attack and 3215 damage for the items, only to have a bonus of 56 attack and 84 damage? Anyway, thought it was awesome! Thank you for the quick updates!


Hmmm. That's not right. Fixed now.

I hope it is not 400 ... I had two of those in my last leveling session and boy are they painful. I thought hoof put a stop to anything over 150.


Uh, no. Hoofmaster doesn't write Content. That's all Varkaz and myself.
