    [dev1061] Regarding A Crystalline Prophecy

    Quick question in regards to the new GoV pages in Delkfutt's tower.

    Are you simply adding pages (similar to boyahda) or adding high level monsters too?

    If the latter of the two - what is your solution to people who need to re-do their Crystalline Prophecy pieces having to be level sync'd to 30 for the mission?

    Wondering if I need to go redo the fight before these assumed level 90 mobs start one shotting my lvl 30.

    um.... you can still get killed quite easily up there now on that run (first floor mobs currently run 25-36,running to the top floor mobs already vary from level 34-70). So guess it wouldn't really change that much for a quest that is locking you to level 30. Depending on if they are placed so you are in their aggro path, it would be the difference of it taking a couple hits to kill you versus just one is all.

    You would have needed snk/invis anyway. Nothing would change.

    The mobs on the top floor already would murder you in an intant, the idea is to avoid them, getting killed by a 60ish level mob or a 90ish level mob won't change anything at 30 where the purpose for the mission is stealth. Now the rank mission where the tower is involved in the mission might become a slight problem, but please, bring sneak/invis item or use the new book, that wouldn't be a problem either as it offers these. I say put the mobs right in the pathway.

It encourages you to explore the whole breadth of content rather than asking you to bumrush and bypass all the old content just so you can grind the newer content. This is a model used by other MMOs such as WoW, and while I don't have anything against people that enjoy this model, if I wanted to play an MMO with that model there are many, many games vast superior to XI in terms of mechanics and especially customer service that offer such a model.

    Protip: You can buy the KI needed to enter the BC from the gob in PJ if you have already won the fight. Same for all 3 add on scenarios.

    Did an (almost) full run of the Delkfutt Tower zones, GoV did not add any new mobs to kill.
    All pages (Lower:5, Middle: 3, Upper:5) are around lvl 30~35, except for pages 2-5 in Upper, where you take on a selection of 4 kinds of gigas, bats and arcana. (I exited at 12th floor book, since nothing there was high enough to give Seasoning Stone drop.) Oh, and I killed Autarch as PUP/THF 95 with Mk2 soulsoother, new puppet AI is INSANE

    So no worries about ACP run being compromised, it's actually easier with all those books giving RR, Sneak and Invis
