<div>I see that you changed the final encounter on Qeynos and you have made it too hard for a person to solo now. Instead of having the mob spawn after you destroy the totem - you now have at least 2 waves of about 6 mobs coming at you when you approach the lady on the Dias.</div><div>YOu don't even have to destroy the totem - just get near the woman in blue with the tainted falcon and they spring up.</div><div> </div><div>On my Level 7 Ranger I am dual wielding and using heroic encounter -- kill the 3 standing mobs in the room, got through the first wave, and had 2 left on 2nd wave when I died --- believe me no newbie player will thank you for that kind of encounter nor will it encourage them to want to play further.</div><div> </div><div>If you hope to lure players to this game -- this is the WRONG way to do it. !</div>

<div></div>totally true, this kind of 'luring" is going to get EQ2 trial uninstalled off someones Harddrive and the disk thrown in the garbage. Great way to get newcomers playing.

<div>Actually she will summon them when you get close anyway. She did that to me the first time I was in there and didn't even know to take out any of the totems. IF you stay near her she brings out more and more groups. I can destory the first two totems before engaging the goblin zombies and she doesn't summon 'old friends' until I get close to her to take out the third and fourth totems.</div>

This time when I destroyed a totem NOTHING happened. I even stood around and waited and no mobs showed up. SOunds like the encounter may be bugged as nothing happened until I approached the dais.

<div>When I've done that instance the mobs never spawned until I got close to the dais. THere's a group of 3 goblins that are there when you enter but if you stick to the edges you can avoid drawing aggro until you've taken out the right totem and are going for the second one (they usually jump me at this point). Then nothing happens until I go for one of the other two totems and she starts summoning 'old friends'. WHen I take out the first two totems she just whines about "How'd you know" and "Don't touch those".</div>
