Elite Dungeon Content!

[Cinco]

Alien Oasis Part III is currently in-development. All of the monsters and items are designed and on their way through the Art development process. Dungeons are outlined and encounters are being set-up...

While this is going on I have a bit of time to devote to creating more challenging content!

My question to you is this:
What area of the existing game should I use as the inspiration for this 'Elite' campaign stuff?

Some options to consider are:
1. The 'Lost Expedition.' We all know this campaign is pretty much a push-over. I would like to see furiously over-powered Yeti with special skill combos and stuff to make up for how quickly we all stormed "Snowpeak Mountain" when it first released.
2. The 'Crypts.' It's always fun to have grossly challenging undead creatures crawling all over you... ahem... right? Maybe it's just me but I do favor the skeletons and think they would be a fun bunch to beat in an 'Elite' campaign.
3. The 'Swamp.' Cries of "Repeal" have echoed since I nerfed the Swamps so maybe this is the theme that we see again in 'Elite' campaigns. I don't like this option as much because we've all already seen what powerful Crocs can do... and it might be a lot more fun to give someone else the 'Elite' status.

Let me know what you think!
I will be checking back over the next few days in-between high priority changes related to skills and any issues we find with version 1.4. The thread will close by the weekend.

Thanks!

I think yetis would be awesome! Or maybe zombies! That would be soooo cool!

[CanonicalKoi]

Zombie yetis.....?

[Raxie]

Zombie yetis.....?

it's already been made so there is no point suggesting.

CROC CROC CROC
I WANT SOMETHING THAT MAKES ME QUAKE IN MY PINKS.

Crocs were fairly good at that, back in the day.

Go yetis!!!

I'm guessing Nightmare dungeons would fall in the same level category as their respective regular versions?

I'm a swamp cajun boy so you know where my vote goes! More fleur des l33t? yes please.

Oh and Cinco I have to have this question answered! Would you rather be in a mosh pit for Norma Jean or As I Lay Dying??

Thanks for all the feedback you guys take in from the player community! It's like none other!

crocs of the swamps pleasseeeee.... it was the best challenging campaign of PL and i died maybe thousand times in there alone but it was worth it because it taught me survivality and teamwork... please something where you need a group of five with all classes represented is needed to complete campaigns efficiently

ughhh this is such a tough call.

Crypts = We all love this zone as it was the first real challenge in the game. Has some memorable items and i would love to see more. However i bet many people are already burned out on this.

Lost = Oh yeah totally deserves a revamp. Its pretty much cake and MAN do we need some more frost proc weapons. those things RULE. that said, will be very hard to farm or rush because everything freezes u!

swamps = after being recently neutered i can see the crocs boiling over in fury. this was the most immersive level yet and got us actually scared to get lost from the group. our Jurassic park if you will. but yeah, its fairly recent for us and im sure you are sick of coding there.

so, tough yah. my question is is it ONLY one? Do you plan on revisiting these campaigns soon? I want to see all of them and if i had to vote for just one i would probably say go swamps. its the most appropriate but if you plan on doing them all just start with fathom. You are already halfway there with the forbidden level (LOVE THAT HE HAS DMG BUFF).

Good thing to clarify...

I plan to do 'Elite' or "hard-core" content in all of the existing themes and in themes yet to come. The Poll question is really about determining what comes first!

I will build 'Elite' stuff for the most popular theme first and then schedule time later on to do the other ones.

Norma Jean, in that case

/mosh

You sir, have made my day...

I prefer LE, it's a great stage, nice rates IMO, a lot of people level their, and I think out of the three, it is the most used for leveling! I want yeti stage all the way!

[Furrawn]

I vote for Lost Ex.... I adore the yetis and their "who dats"... Their freeze capability could be wound up to supersize... And maybe I hope somebody throws snowballs... Lol... Maybe The blue freeze trolls? And a snowball takes a quarter of our life as damage if we suffer a snowball hit?
I'm excited about any elite campaign!!
Go, Cinco!
