On the subject of Jot Invasion itself...it appears to have become a really boring slog. It felt like doing a nightmarish unending version of Air Plane only with more casters. A really boring hard slog. No real "risk" if you're careful, just boring. I missed the second half of the zone (was 5am) but I think I'd have enjoyed that - I'm just talking about the initial grid work.

It took just over five hours to do up to and including Glamaad. That's current Tiamat territory. I wouldn't have minded if it was at least interesting or engaging somehow, but itwasn't. This zone just isn't going to get done much like this, which is a shame.

So, I'm aware I'm being all negative and not telling you how to fix things. Well, that's because I'm not sure how to fix it. So, open request - does anyone have any suggestions as to how it could be made more interesting?

Changes were made on testmud, but progress stopped at waiting on changes to Glammad's proc

Thanks for letting us know Marthammor. Wonder if a coder could pick it up somewhere? I know folks are overworked, but this zone should rock, and probably will with changes, maybe someone would like to take a look :-)

I honestly don't even know if the proposed proc was approved. I sent a mmail to both shev and eil, both of whom I know are rather busy with RL atm. I'm guessing its on a todo list someplace and it'll be gotten to.
