while im sitting here waiting for the update and server to reboot i had an idea for a temple of clerics to the FD area that are followers of Auril the frost goddess clerics rangers and rouges of CR 28 or so with boss CR 35 as a alternative to the zon epic areas

i also had a idea of a Beholder den in the underdark maybe have some ithilids with them comparable to the zon and temple mentioned above.

anyone got some more ideas for them to add?

mind flayers with a knock down pulse...that would be hillarious.

An expantion on the kobolt caves would be nice to, for example cr 9-15 kobolts and with a boss like a kobolt cleric cr 17+ together with a cr 20like dragon (or 2 cr 12-14 dragons). Approx the same can happen to the nearby goblin caves with a mid-high cr shaman.

There are still some npc's without any function aswell, like the one near redhorn pass, hilltop inn ones, near hallowtop etc. Maybe we can start to think of a way to get them have a useage to, like jobs for lvl 8+ characters.

Well, I've already mentioned the idea about making neutral rift shard bindable to any character as a quest reward, certainly the NPC hanging around some of the areas would be natural starting points for those quests.

I've suggested beholders and mind flayers before too:

Of course it looks like some of these ideas have already been put into the game with the planes, we got Dwarf Home loaded with nasty epic dwarves, and I have heard of epic molemen in the Plane of Earth.
The Nine Hells might be a great second plane to stick onto the LA nexus if the devs don't already have something planned, given that the nexus opens into a demon infested area. The Isle of Avalon seems a good fit for NC's nexus when it goes in, and the Demonweb Pits also a natural for SL. But I don't know if this stuff is already planned out.

I heard something about a dragon plane, I dunno if thats just a rumer but that would be sweet. Don't remember who brought it up but I love the new areas so far. Great job dev team, cheers!

Yeah, how about a renegade area where outcasts of the many factions have come together under one ruler, kinda like a multi-race (that includes the semi-intelligent creatues like Kobolds anf Goblins) bandit area for levels 15-20 ?

Nah, I'd think sometihng more along the lines of a good plane would be good to place in the Nexus. Considering LA is the very definition, connecting them to an evil plane and a good plane seems a better idea than two evil planes to me.

Also, are the Positive, Negative, and Heroic Domains of Ysgard Planars going in? I'd really like to see the last one, on the Plains of Ida. A place with constant fighting every day, and peaceful talk in the local tavern at night. All killed on a day is resurrected the following day to fight again.

Hmm, we have that already. It's the WHOLE DAMN SERVER.

Close, but on the Plains of Ida its like what NS4 used to be. No people running by each other saying hi, just a whole constant battlefield. And also, the character can wait for dawn to be resurrected. Which I think would be rather cool, but they'd have to have the patience.
