I still need a bunch of mob/boss aps and we all know grinding those are a drag. How to get ppl into running? Maybe mini events for each expansion with random drops from mobs and points from bosses.
The loot could be reflective of the map it’s dropped in. For the sake of the economy..no gold drops, just items. Maybe a hat or banner, recolor the house items that drop in maps already. Starting with “The Brakenridge Sweep” Kill mobs for loot and kill the Bosses for points! Reach X goal and receive the Jarl helm! Ect. Ect. Ect. Expand the player levels that can run together so enders can help lowbies. Reduce other events back to 1 week each. Squeeze these elite runs of old maps in between.

Not disagreeing w ya but why a mini event rather than just permanent?
Sometimes events aren’t worth running n I’d hate to have to wait a week

Also I’d prefer any rewards to not only be vanities, not just cuz I hate auras
maybe a choice for a quest for either great gear (for newbs) or shiny vanity ( bling vs sting)

Last I agree to the idea of lessening of level restrictions in maps
If I had a reason to join a low map I’d help anyone I could at the same time

But
I can totally see selfish speedy jerks wrecking maps for new ppl

Overall +1

Making an event that covers one expansion map at a time will help concentrate ppl to that area. I don’t need brakenridge aps but would be willing to run those if populated and dropping a few updated items. Peeps who need aps will have company and those who help can pick up some extra crafting stuff ect. A vanity item was an example of possible new loot. Recolor the house items that already drop in each map, 2x essence frag drops...

+1 to making older maps relevant again. Tbh, the only time I run elite maps is during those monster mirror events.

+ 1 would definitely shake the game up

maybe the easiest way would be to add permanently a special boss that can spawn(very rare chance) in any elite map and could drop tokens, jewels etc.. and very rarely arcane shard or some kind of chest...

could also be cyclic, every 2h or day or week? idk

Sorry but that sounds like something ppl would sell in town.

I would agree widening the lvl gap of maps we can join would be good.

Would rather they focus on the state of end game as it is boring and quite dead alot of the time. Working on a system to benefit players running these old maps seems like a complete waste of time considering the newest content is still half baked.

Post #6 has the right idea if it were to ever happen, but lets not live in the past.
