“I mean the announcement for the zone I seem to recall explicitly stating it was an addition to the base game. Now obviously it requires an SoF zone to access and the mobs are all basically unkillable til 100-105 I would imagine. I tried to kite one at level 90 and saw full resists on every spell even big negative Resist spells.

As much as I’d like it to be always accessible like the announcement indicates, the gear does pose a balance issue for those first two expansions when 110 is attainable.

But even the mission aside, I wouldn’t be too surprised if starting in the 105 expansions like TDS/TBM/EoK, players will be strong enough to form a raid, or just a ton of single groups with Mercs and defeat the group named in that zone for their drops. Granted that’s a much bigger level of effort input compared to a single group mission that scales down to your level, but it is something else to consider if the zone will remain untied to any expansion.

Also the Type5 augments from the zone appear to be level 105 required level rather than 110. These Augs are all 63 Primary Heroic and 25-29 Secondary Heroic stats. The first TBM Type 5 augments we will have access to are 32 Primary Heroic and 11 Secondary Heroic stats for the vendor bought ones with the 2-3 rare random drop Augs being 40 to Primary Heroic and 14 to Secondary Heroic.

They probably should require 110 to match the group gear dropped from the same zone but I know how much Live players hate TLP originating changes so perhaps all the named mobs in the zone could just require TBL to start spawning if you want to leave the zone available?”

The mission is on the HA system, so the mob level will probably scale down if lower level toons do them. Which means that powerful loot could be entering the game much sooner than it should.

“I agree there is a lot of reason for confusion: the /achievements (and lore?) being listed under the Secrets of Faydwer expansion, the zone being officially advertised for levels 95 and higher, and the mob difficulty and loot rewards being tuned for The Burning Lands/level 110.

But I don't really think it matters, even for the 3 months of RoS. Good for anybody who can take advantage of it, but by that time, Phinny is basically a live server anyhow.”

People just need a reason to complain. I'm curious how many people who grumble and moan will still be playing by the time the server reaches that point.
