Hehehe no they haven't met face to face. =)
I hate what they've done to Kithicor. I personally don't mind the mobs as a
50th, but I made the mistake of going afk at RV zone with my druid and
someone trained 4 or 5 uber-skellies there. Luckily I got back in time to
zone. It's the location. They should've put these mobs somewhere else like
in Lesser Faydark. I feel sorry for halfling newbies that don't have friends
to gate them out of there when they have Runnyeye/Beholder on one side and
Kith on the other.
Hopefully Paineel will be something cool and different and worthwhile for
higher levels. I think it MIGHT be opened by the end of the year. The orc
highway you are talking about - I always thought that would be a good place
for another zone myself. Maybe it's supposed to go to the Rujarkian Hills
like it shows on the atlas? I think it should lead to a badlands
(non-desert) type of place. Would be nice. There are a ton of places on the
Norrathian Atlas they can add that have yet to be implemented (and most
probly never will). The Dead Hills near Feerrot sound interesting. =)
