Monster/Creature Re-Balance
« on: November 22, 2021, 12:30:04 am »
Please post here any monster/creatures that may need to be buffed due to being too easy now with the increase to loot and so forth.
Add as much detail as possible so area name and creature name.
Thank you all in advance we will start to work through these slowly

Thanks

The minotaurs on the Longwalk quest near Sullivans are fairly easy to defeat now.  Other than perhaps the casters (they are still reasonably challenging) they could all use a boost. --- Done

Valley of the Dinosaurs (12-30 quest)

This is the quest that goes to level 30 as far as I'm aware.  I think a few things would be nice:

1) The overall numbers be increases by 20-50% for what spawns there, and the levels of the creatures increased by maybe 1-2 each.

2) The loot in the quest area (specifically the hidden areas) be brought up a tier or two.  The chests at the very end that all can get to are the highest tier chests, where the hidden ones are maybe 3 tiers lower?

3) If anything was to change, the end boss "Keeper of the Bones" needs a significant buff.  The spinosaurs before it are probably 4-5 times more powerful than it (and two spawn, at that!).  The Dragon kinda just flops over and dies

Matriarch — Today at 12:01 PM
Some of the stuff that is in the necropolis, in the lower levels. The duergars were pretty tough, but everything else was not as hard. Some are maybe a bit too easy even.
Then there were the orcs out in the orc hills and mine. Hills are easy to clear at a high level. (was 15 I think the first time I went in there and it was not too hard but then at 19, got really easy.) for level 17+, I'd say orcs are easy. It could use a few tougher ones in the mines at the very least.

I found as a caster alone that the Minotaurs on the longwalk were near impossible until Lauriella reached the upper limits on level for the quest. -- Done

The Wood of Witches should be scarier. It should be a place that no sane person would want to go. It needs scarier spawns, maybe some planar creatures as well.
Especially, the Coven/Caves area.
