Subject: Higher Lvl NPCs in the expansion?
   I was told the other day that no one has ever sucessfully raided Undercity and killed Varimthas (no, I'm not good with name spelling). I am not sure what lvl he is, but it seems to me that a raid of lvl 70s will be able to accomplish this, no?

To prevent all these higher lvl raiders from swarming cities, are there going to be random higher lvl elite npcs placed throughout them?

   I'm not aware of any plans to change guard levels at this time.

It's not just Varimathras down there in Undercity but Sylvanas too. Neither of them are push overs.

I would like to think that what will prevent high level raiders from sacking a city would be the defenders of the city (ie opposing players). Of course that would be relatively idealistic to some people.

   BTW Eazy, your post was better before you added the 'blue' in to the title. It wasn't necessary as you see. ;)

Q u o t e:
I don't mind if you buff the guards and make them stronger. I just want you to make less of them. Town raids suck when there are like 300000000000000 guards spawning.

Even worse when the NPCs who spawn them are DKs... but that will get resolved soon.


We've had some discussion about city raids and whether there are plans to make killing city leaders something a bit more viable with some sort of reward. However, that said, we certainly don't want to create a situation where people are planning raids around getting 'ph@t l3wtz' from the city leaders either or that a city is being raided 24/7. Tseric addressed this a little in a previous post and said we were thinking of something a bit more than just 'epic cheese' though I have a feeling some people would love epic cheese as a reward. ;)
