Gondor vs Mordor

OK so 'new area 1' was designed to be a difficult high level area. Listening to feedback, this next planned area will be focused on levelling mid level toons (kind of similar to Shelobs/Spirits/Stingers all rolled into one) and with new gear rewards.

Keep 'em peeled as they say.

Ok some update is due.

After listening to the thoughts of the player base a new, easy to access level up area is properly in  progress. Area is aimed at 20-35s as I know grinding in Stingers/Spirits/Shelobs... well we needed something new.

We are looking at an un-factioned area, so both factions will have access.

I hope to have this up and running in the next couple of weeks along with one or two other additions :)

 Good stuff! :icon_thumright:

Just done a server restart with an updated version of the mod.

Before the area becomes properly accessible (you can start looking for the entrance but won't get past a temporary blocking wall) I want to run some tests on the NPCs and encounters to make sure the difficulty is about right for leveling. So will be looking for volunteers in game :) Level range is probably what you would level in shelobs/stingers/spirits - so low 20s up to 40.

Mod updated...this area is now live and accessible. Will be keeping an eye out for difficulty checking etc.

Respawn rate is a little crazy, forgot to change it after testing. Will do this and update in the next day or so.

Just noticed on one of the new common item drops from here - one of the buffs is set to once per use (which destroys the item when you use it) instead of once per day - will update this at some point.

Someone who has been levelling there or w/e - are the mob half-orcs spawning? Are all three bosses re-spawning?

I think I have not seen the half orcs, but I did see the red-sworded skeletons.

Also, the places does not seem to clean-up / reset. At least for more than 2 days, I have not checked since. The bosses do not respawn too.

Otherwise, a good place for leveling :)

Ok just pushed an update that fixes the two bosses and the modified item.

Yeh I noticed the clean-up problem too :P

Decided to check the new area which looks great but after 3 days I still did not see any bosses respawning.

Nice one Chaos - mmm, will check on the bosses, someone might be farming them or maybe server has been up too long and needs a restart. On holiday after 2 or 3 more working days so looking forward to spending some time on and in the mod :D

There has been an update to this area last mod update - one of the west crypt maps has been removed completely (unused) and the central crypt map has seen a complete change with a different and new sort of spawner :)

Where can i find this new area?

The server is too big to search the entire world...

At least a hint would be nice.  ::)

Osgiliath Graveyard - south from the main Osgiliath map.
