<DIV>I just wish the adventure packs would scale with your level. Then I might be tempted to buy them. But if its tailored for a specific level range, forget it heh...</DIV><p>Message Edited by Miral on <span class=date_text>02-28-2005</span> <span class=time_text>10:43 PM</span>

Aye, there have been a ton of fixes and Im thankful for that, but there is stuff that needs serious attention still. I was thinking the same as the first poster to this thread, "wow, an expansion already". But of course, I will hit the pre-order now button <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

<DIV>yeah I meant update, so sue me =P</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>what's it do for you as a tradeskiller? about as much as it does for me as a level 25 adventurer. nothing.</DIV>

<DIV>Sorry my point was just that people act like its a full fledged expansion, but thats just not the case. Its more like a scenario for a pnp game.</DIV>
