Excelsior

With all of the changes in the past year and all of the future changings hopefully coming soon, there is not much in my mind that needs tweaking here. But, I do have 3 things I think could use a tweak and without much effort. At least I hope so.

1. Cove Champ - Have it drop just like other champs. Most players are told to steer away from it because of no reward at the end. No sense having a champ if no one wants to fight it.

2. Palace Guard in Paroxysmus Palace - He is one tough cookie that takes a while to take down but the reward is pittance in comparison to the effort. Change his loot table, add a special drop or something. Right now he is just a fly by for the vast majority of adventurers there.

3. Polar Wyrm - Another tough cookie that most players don't even know exists. I would like to see him at least be aggressive instead of non. Better yet, have him spawn in the Ice Dungeon in Fel or Tram or both. But at least make him mean. I think his loot is okay but I would never say no to a bump.

P.S. - I wish I didn't lose fame/karma to creatures that attack you but hey, I made it this far like it is, I can manage a bit more.

1. ohmygodiforgotthatexisted.

2. legend has it the guard has a chance to drop a key that unlocks the chest to his South/SouthEast, which contains a full paroxy gem... May just be legend =)

3. legend ALSO says the polar wyrm would drop a fun item. world stone, gem stone, something or other. Again, nothing fancy, but dunno if it's even true.

Interesting ideas and possibilities.

the legend of the paroxy chest has been confirmed! Albeit by someone else... And the chest was already unlocked, so the key dropped is still questionable, but most likely the guard... But the chest has goodies! You get a bag with all the items.

Geez! Now you know what I am going to be doing for the next month until I get a key or finally determine that it really doesn't exist. Of course, if it drops that key like Netopir drops batwing sandals for me, I'll be there for years waiting to get one.

Yep, I found the bag of goodies but you don't need a key to unlock it. That chest is always accessible. So, if the Guard does drop a key, it seems to be immaterial as far as the chest is concerned. I got a bag of goodies as well with no need for a key or any skill.
So, I am back to my original request. Put something into his loot package to be comparable to his numerous hit points. The Eidolon drops a power scroll and a chance at the Medallion of the Undead. Perhaps it could be something like that.

I was quite disappointed that the guard didn't drop anything fancy after all those hp's, though it was a very easy fight...
