Frostfang Sea & the city of New Halas - Page 5

Oakum · 05-18-2010, 12:45 PM

Havent seen the latest changes but here is what I think is needed to help find New Halas for newbies. Since the path is basically downhill it could be doable.

Have a child slide down the center of the path on a sled and end up by the camp. Have a NPC that then chases/sends them back to town where its safer shortrange broadcast so it will pop on the players screen telling them that the way is close.

For more fun, give the sledding kid a chance to knock down anyone walking the center of the path, lol.

There's a few more changes squeeking in here at the finish line to let you know of:

Zone - Frostfang Sea

· Bull the Crafty is now willing to mend anyone's armor.

· Exiting a guild hall in New Halas no longer places player in a wall.

I don't know exactly when they will be on the Test servers, but they should be coming soon!

Since the latest patch the Frostfang Sea has map icons. But these icons are all under the category "other", instead of merchants under "shops", etc, making it impossible to filter this mess of icons. There are way too many icons on a too small map. Like in Kelethin/Greater Faydark or Gorowyn/Timorous Deep, the map should switch from a zone to a city map when entering the Halas part of the Frostfang Sea.

Is Halas going to be good neutral, similar to Gorowyn being evil neutral? In other words, will evil toons be able to go there and purchase items, use all npc's, and not get hassled?

This might be a bit off topic.

But since you guys are listening here, might as well put it down.

Is it possible for you to allow Exiles to hide/change their 'the Exiled' title?

Nope. Within the city, the merchants will not wish to offer you their services if you are evil. The merchants outside the city, within the zone of Frostfang Sea, have no problems offering you their services though.

Will the guildhall mailboxes have the option to be turned into Halas versions like all other cities have?

Kaitheel · 05-24-2010, 04:09 PM

No, Anestacia. But on a related note, there will be many more house items related to New Halas in a future *city* event.
