Zone upgrades
Zone upgrades
I am currently looking for thoughts on which zones have equipment which is below par for the zone difficulty. For example Myth Unnohyr has been brought up in the past.
Hurlburg
Hurlburg is a zone that's about as long as spob or seelie but does does not nearly provide eq of that level. It should be a little less then those two as it doesn't seem quite as spanky (although the end fight with the hive mother is a little scary). That said, upgrade it mightily.

Wouldn't that require us to first see the changes and then judge wether the zone equip was statted correctly? There is really no way to say what zones are currently balanced as we have been told almost nothing in regards to what the new stats will be. While something may be unbalanced now it may be just right after the equip changes, or it may still be unblanced... I don't see how any feedback received now could be valid for comparing how you did with the new system. Perhaps you can answer a question, are stats really being changed across the board or are only select (probably more popular) zones being re-statted?
from what i've heard, PI/TNZ/seelie are under the new eq restrictions or wutever.
i think hulburg and TTF are underpar for the risk vs reward. it's basically doing a high level zone for mid-level eq. also i think hulburg is harder than spob and seelie. CRs are much harder to do in hulburg.

It will be fixed in Toril 2.0.

thought of something else, i think crypts is in need of a major rewrite. i wouldn't mind seeing it be anywhere from 30-50 rooms with multiple quests and new and interesting equipment, i mean lets face it, it's pretty easy and boring. no offense to the zone writer.
i think it would make it a more popular area for more than just collecting darkenbeast claws. imagine all the undead that could live in there, and possibly a lich or two, and then maybe a priest trying to clense the area of the undead that haunt it. maybe a fresh burial or two where you actually witness the acts of mobs burying some that you had killed to gain entrance
just a thought

Driders is like Mini-Jot in a sense. I don't think the zone is too hard, it's just that last fight where you need a lich and a scaler (and a full group sure doesn't hurt compared to the few people you need to clear the grid). It would be nice if the rares in the grid had a greater chance of loading, and THOSE stat'd items got up'd. They are BEAUTIFUL items, especially for a drow princess like me, yet most of these items are useless in regular use because of the stats. Give us a reason to clear the grid besides exp. As for the robe on the final mob, I like how it is only slightly better then jot ringmail for a very similar, yet reduced, zone situation/experience.

How about quests? Please only name the quest reward when posting and keep your comments generalized as to not give too much away. For example, BGR pyramid quest 5x5x5x5x5 = 5?!?
anything from hulburg/ttf/oakvale

Half the quests from YOUR zones Shargaas. Tattered rhemo leggings, platemail of forest, talisman of shadows/daggers could all use a fix. And just recently finding out you did Fire Embody somehow made perfect sense...
And like Dartan said, the major quest eq from hulburg/ttf need upping. The quest muspel caster robes could use it too, esp. when compared to spob crap. Frankly, if Spob robes keep their stats, than dscale robes deserve upping too. :P
The reward from the large Avernus/BC quest needs massive uppage too. The stats on that stuff are.. underpowered. :(
That's all I can think of atm.

Zone: Kazgoroth Quest
reward: (all)+
Zone: Multiple
reward: glittering seashells necklace - (wish there was more +1 +2 neckwear out there though!)

Zone: Hulburg/TTF
reward: Most. . . thinking the wilderness boots, the halberd, etc.
Zone: UM2
reward: Vortex cloak (not really a quest but. . sheesh!)
Zone: Erlan/GC

I agree almost completely waelos.
The main point i disagree on, and not because of the item involved, but because of the logic, is the spider/dscale gaunts. This quest would be difficult enough for the reward IF everyone didn't share its components! This would hold true of any quest, that if people share the steps involved, it is significantly easier. The quest itself is reasonably difficult with the need to go to a few different zones, and collect a few items from a couple out of the way places. If nothing else, make some changes to this quest and leave the items as they are. and find a way to punish people who share quest information. You shouldn't be rewarded for following a list of specific ingredients you need to create something more powerful.
