I'm so sorry you can't enter anymore sorryOriginally Posted by MoloToha
Good luck on todays play through hopefully all goes well with the test play
asimauara farmers inc! we go for the fun!
Sam, please realize that the only people with endgame gear will be those who open crates at level 41. I don't see any other way of getting gear at that level.That is correct, no elite zones will be accessable. The button on the map to access elites will be replaced with a button that says coming soon.
We know that people will be bummed by the elites not being there. We totally understand the desire to slam straight to that content and chase the best that the expansion has to offer. We felt that putting some breathing room between leveling up to 40 (or 41) and the elites was a good thing for the game.
Edit: I also wanted to mention the Gladiator Arena. It won't be changed at the launch of the expansion or with the elite upgrade. We plan to change the Gladiator arena sometime after the elite zones have been farmed and people are looking for "the new hotness."
Holding the elite zone content also allows us to really hammer all the bugs out of the normal version of the bosses. For those who recall, we had some pretty nasty bugs with the elite version of Shuyal bosses when the Realm of Shadows expansion launched. While we were able to patch those issues pretty quickly, the damage was done. Quills for everyone!This is something we're doing to help ensure an awesome elite zone experience. It's only 2 weekends; we think it'll be ok.
Yeah the crate gear will most likely be better than some of the 26-36 mythics already in the game. Sadly enough, I have to accept this because if the expansion is delayed AGAIN I will definitely quit of boredom
Pushing it has to do with them wantin it to be perfect and the new itemization idea
I dont mind elites being pushed but should add some type of new achivments for normal new map bosses thtll stall us until elites are up
Yes, developers work too. You wouldn't want them working through their weekend, right? xD

Some of my friends took the words right out of me regarding the Elite Maps delay. At the end of it all StS intends on literally releasing an unfinished product with the subject move. Its an understatement for me to say that I'm unhappy with such a move. In my opinion, there SHOULD be only two options. 1) Wait to implement the new content until it's a completed package. 2) Leave Elite Maps up to Shuyal open and hold the new ones for trails.

Above, you can see an example of an unfinished product. This is honestly what it is.
Mistakes:
1. Announcing the Campaign 10 weeks early, effectively destroying all farming activities for 10 weeks.
2. Delaying the expansion.
3. Closing of all elite zones.
At least let us farm for L40 archon rings of potency if we can't access Dragon Enclave Elite! All we have to do right now is PvP, which, honestly is very boring.
Now, regarding arcane teeth:
Yes, I get that arcane teeth will be a rare drop in the normal maps. However, with you limiting the only maps to be able to be run for 2 weeks is the normal ones, the arcane teeth will be extensively over farmed and drop value very very quickly! This decision, honestly, will hurt the economy more than it will help it.

Well i think its a wise decision. And i like it. To keep players always looking forward to something new trough all the months lvl 41 cap is going to be here.
With New Itemization and all this changes, trying some different way, to keep players interested in game for the whole expansion, not only few hardcore ones.
Also to look up for bugs that may be harmfull, avoid threads like how the economy is ruined since the beggining bc some elite items r abundant thank to the bug they could spot if they took more time (pirate rings, quills,....).
Well yeah, i like it
LolOl off topic but nice phone k900
turning down elite or not doesnt make sense to plat buyers(that spend monthly) as they got upgraded mythic set which is better then lvl41 elite gear and they only rush to cap to farm elites nd sell them at ridiculously high price.
and for APs only.
I'll spend these two weeks capping and farming Arena. So pity that I didn't re-entered Singe contest T_T...
Exactly. I said it once, I will say it again. If the only reason for locking Elite is debugging, please cap the Shuyal gear at 40 and let us farm the old elites and train our members. How can I train a member if any attack skill smashes the normal mobs in seconds?
Thank you for listening
I understand STS has to do this to keep players from "burning out" at least we all got something to look forward to right?
wait i dont end game! doh

I would say, can u make a elite zone that accessible when u finished to lvl 40-41? Like elite mines of nordia when nordr expansion . Can you make those things again? By other theme like elite mines of enclave so ppl will get excited to run and wait, anyhow might nt work coz it cost 10 or 15 plat to enter if im nt wrong.

Update on 3/11 @ 2:40 PM Central.
Hey everyone,
I wanted to update you with the status of the Dragon Enclave expansion after our company playtest.
I can tell you 100% that the expansion will not be going live on Wednesday, March 12th.
We still have a shot for Thursday, however we did uncover some troubling issues with art assets going over budget that may have bad repercussions for lower end devices. We're proceeding with an additional round of device testing using our lowest end devices to validate those concerns. If that issue is verified, it will likely lead to the expansion pushing out for next week as we likely won't have enough time to address it sufficiently.
That's the haps. I'll keep you posted with more info as it becomes available.
I do think two weekends is an awful long time to go without elites at all.
I mean, I love farming Jarl and all, but all the decent gold that I make in this game is from elite map boss drops and mobs, so to be honest you're effectively taking away the best farming income for the entire population for two weeks just so everyone can level at their own pace. That's incredibly frustrating for a die hard elite farmer.
I will give you the benefit of the doubt here and say in your defense that you might have some stuff planned out in the meantime so keep players interested, such as this St. Patrick's Day content along with the new map release and such - but that better entail drops worth farming in normal maps for players to sell in the meantime.
