Content wise this is a big improvement.. A challenge and something interesting to do other than way-point grinding.

But with a few ugly problems:

1. If you are going to have keys for each level make sure they are permanently spawned.

2. If enough people are in there there is almost nothing to kill and you can just walk all the way through as long as you can get the keys.
I think that the mobs should re-spawn on the upper level as so as your group gets the key and goes down a level. and at the end you have an escape path or just warp out of the dungeon

3. The mapping system doesn't seem to work very well with so many layers.. you should only see your current level. It gets very confusing with all the overlaying levels.

My thoughts on the Warren:



1. You hyped it up for weeks before it went live.


2. It went live.


3. It is bugged to hell.


4. I can't get inside, due to two different bugs.


5. I can't give an honest opinion about the content other than I am even more disappointed in you Devs for letting something like this happen. And the fact that you keep coming on here AFTER it is reported as bugged and still talk about how much fun the content is, just make me even more angry at you.


6. Next time, how about finishing something before hyping it up and making it sound cool (and finished).

IT ROCKS!!!


Although I do have a question about it... Is it supposed to be so hard?


I went in adventuring with a group of three others. I'm an advanced pistoleer/smuggler, and behind me was a commando, followed by a medic, and finally, a rifleman. Two minutes in, we found an elevator, went up. Entered a room, and that was pretty much the end of the story.


I was the first one in. Instant death by some kind of wall mounted gun. My friend followed right behind me, duked it out for about three seconds (thanks to his armor) before he fell to the ground and died. None of us saw it coming. We just walked right in the door, and BOOM.


I recloned at the Dantooine Agro Outpost, and right behind the two of us came our two other friends, both had apparently suffered the same fate. Three of us had died instantly, but the commando who had donned a suit of armor had suffered ridiculously high wounds, so high in fact, that his health and mind pools were drained to 1 point, with his action pool being somewhat damaged. You can imagine how long it took us to get him up and running.

Went there 2 days ago and had some fun killing MOBs. Then came time for my group of 15 people to get the "Letter." OMG!!!! YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!!! 15 people in my group at 1"Letter" spawn per hour to hour and a half is 20 HOURS!!!!! Then you break it down to 10,000 people on the server, 1"Letter" per hour, so in 13,000 hours we can all have the Warren completed.



The letter should be given to the ENTIRE group so with some sort of checksum command that doesn't give players who have completed the mission subsequent letters so they can slap them on the bazaar or auction them here in the forums. This also goes for Evidence disk # 4.



The Developers calim to be leaning toward GROUP PLAY, but this is opposite. It turns people into backstabbers and causes them to ninja loot the letter and split to get their badge.

Hey lev, i see you submitted the idea we all had that night



I hope they agree with it cause this is indeed annoying that only one person can get it at the time while the dungeon needs a group to complete it, not 1 person, so i agree that if someone loots the letter in a group everyone should get it cause they all do their best to complete it and getting the reward for doing it.


Or make the letter Static which would be better IMO ...

The Warren seems like a good start to new content but ...


Why the bugs on a simple thing like entering ?


Nothing makes you want to give up on a game more then getting your group out to the


dungeon only to not get inside and then have a CSR tell you nothing can be done.


I watched a CSR on Bloodfin fix it so we could go inside .. it really is cool but we could not enter on


Kuari and no one was impressed.


Add content but blaring bugs need to be fixed first ..

Regarding the T21, I can appreciate the problems everyone is having, but if you would all come to Ahazi, your problems would disappear. Mainly due to the fact that we have never had T21's on our server.

I've gotten all the way to placing the rods in the drum and now I can't open the drum. It says there is 1/20 Contents in the examine. I guess someone stuck in a rod and either died or left.



I've been camping it for hours and it has not reset. Wonder if I have to wait till server reset for it to reset to 0/20 contents. Annoying to say the least.

This is the problem.



Currently, in the Warren, people are running around saying "Selling keys, letters and rods !!! 10k !!!"



This Dungeon is the best place for griefers.


One guy did put a rod in the drum and leave the place. No one could access the Drum, we were all **edit**ed.



The Warren has got 2 big problems : camping at corpses (1hour to get the letter to spawn, **edit** ?) and griefers running everywhere inside it, trying to sell items and block people.
