Subject Wildwood Faire replacing Disney
Disney has been replaced with a new zone, the Wildwood Faire. The Wildwood Faire has the exact same layout as Disney, and a majority of the rooms have the same name as well. Most of the Disney gear was directly ported over, except for some items that specifically made a Disney reference, like Simba's Claw. Those items were given new names, but the type and stats were kept the same. In addition to retaining existing gear, the Wildwood Faire has a full set of level 7 equipment. There are still leveling mobs to find here, although they are 2 levels higher than Disney was, since The Initiation remains the leveling zone of choice until level 5. Your questing habits and leveling habits should largely remain the same, but we'll no longer have a zone that is largely unoriginal.

Subject Rovarok Mob Level Changes
I've done a pass of Rovarok, bringing the mob levels down considerably. Prior to this change, mobs ranged anywhere from level 35 to 46, despite the gear in the zone being level 20. As a reference, Cadets in JROTC are level 24 and have level 15 gear. The named mobs in NIMH are level 38 and they have level 25 gear. Rovarok had level 35 named mobs, with level 20 gear. Play testing this with a character who's not running around in a full set of QEQ, it was nearly impossible to obtain. The leveling mobs were changed as follows: Ants : 36 -> 26 Spiders: 41 -> 30 Beetles: 46 -> 33 I know the zone has been used for AOE leveling for the very limited number of characters who have access to Goblincleaver at low levels, but the gear access was very poor. Having many level 46 mobs in a zone where the gear is level 20 doesn't make sense. You can still AOE, just probably at different levels. This also offers a more linear leveling path ahead of moving to Wyverns in Akyros. If you have objections to this change, shoot me a message to help me understand why the original values should be preserved.
