| 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. |
