Not gonna happen. Turbine are pretty much ignoring Eberron for the forseeable future to add more Faerun content. Adding epic versions to existing raids is about the best you can hope for I suspect.


I am 150% willing to delude myself into not believing a word you said.

Well a return to Amrath in any form would be cool.

I've had my fill of Dungeons and Devils.

A decent extension to the shavarath storyline would be good.

I'd also like to deal with the archons, even if it was a "flagging" story chain where we are tested against some celestial armies, before deeming us worthy and some ancient relics from the last war.

This would make me tres heureax. Got a linky?




No Linky, but I'll tell you how to find it...

It was in Geoff Hanna/DDOGamer's blog interview with Tolero. "Deep Owlbear" or other some trite bullshit name.


It was also under Dipshit Glin's regime, and quite possibly is null and void under Dipshit Rowan.

Epic Vale again? I thought Epic Greensteel was something which was abandoned in '08.


During one of the last Dev Event in L-Space before Shadowfail release, Squeak dropped lots of Epic Greensteel blanks.

When asked it that meant E-Vale was back on track the answer was : not gonna happen, but it's fun to drop stuff that won't see the light on live.

Take it for what it's worth, but imho they are still considering it.

Everyone is excited for a return to Amrath... but do you want the current quest designers building Amrath quests? Amrath was released 4 years ago (Sept 1, 2009). Do you really think the people who designed those quests are still there? Look at most of the quests we've been getting lately (not counting the "update" as I haven't played that yet): they're all run through here and kill all this stuff and you can't get past this part until you kill XYZ monster. Pure hack n slash with no other considerations. Do you want those designers making Amrath quests?

Think about it.

Whatever content developers they have are going to develop whatever content we get.  I personally like the new content.  Sure they have started using in quest mechanics to prevent zerg to the end questing or to prevent zerg/gather/nuke/repeat questing, but that's preferable to trying to use dungeon alert to slow down zerging.

They said the exact same thing when dropping epic GH armors during MotU preview, about eGH not being planned.

What I really hate, given I have a running partner who is obsessed with bards, is the "fascinate all the things oh shit we have to kill something here" dance....

This made me lol.
  

A half-dozen boss Vaulties donated generously with real money to my classroom during a fundraiser in May 2015 to get poor kids books to read. I won't forget that. They know who they are, and they freaking rule.

Once you meat your personal goal you might want to give that some consideration.

Think about it.


Thrill of the Hunt had a placeholder floor-tile puzzle on Lamannia. Given that they removed it instead of completing it, they probably don't have  any content designers left that knows how to make puzzles. Some of the people responsible for those quests may still be around, but they are probably responsible for other things now.

The hack and slash pattern for the recent quests would make sense if we were to invade the demon section of Shavarath, but it's not one I particularly like.
