Old Mor Dhona!

Okay, so I was looking through some old pictures on my PC, when I came across this little beauty. Can anyone remember when Mor Dhona was but a wasteland? Nostalgia... We've certainly come far!

I thought I was pretty cool in my Dark light gear from 1.0 and my moogle weapon that couldn't even be obtained yet haha

I'd love to see more images of the evolution of Revenant's Toll. I was only there a short bit before 2.3 when they opened Rowena's building.

Rowena's building didn't exist originally. See that tent behind the aetheryte? She hung out in that little thing.

Just for really old time's sake, here is Revenant's Toll from v1.

It was an outpost in a far corner of a much more vast Mor Dhona, and almost no reason to go there at all.

There was basically just an aetheryte and a tent.

Pivot the camera about 75 degrees to the right and you'd find Rowena's original installation--as well as a graphic blob of players trading for DL.

I know, I was there when they added it. XD Opening, added, same diff to me. XD She used to be between the ladies that currently sell weapons and armor for tomestones, when I got there the first time.

And that 1.0 map scares me.

Pretty sure she was in the tent to the right of what's visible in that screenshot and the merchant and mender were in the one visible behind the Aetheryte. Regardless, the place was pretty unimpressive.

I remember Revenant's Toll when it was The Boonies of Eorzea, and now look at it...it is what it is because of us...our toons who saved the world and became the warriors of light and inspired a whole slew of adventurers who want to be just like us.

We had to go there for the original last mainstory quest. And at the end of 1.23 there was also Atomos. I think that was it ^^

What a coincidence, there's a thread in the Lore section just for this. :p

Thank you! So much difference! I wonder if 2.5 will have Rowena's upstairs finished?

I expect 3.0 to show off more of the place.

Here is an upclose look at what Mordhona looked like before the Calamity

Hm. What happened at Revenant's Toll for the main story?
I don't remember that part, I guess. ^^;

I do remember they were building the Castrum Novum Imperial stronghold nearby, where we had to deactivate the tractor beam... but we couldn't get into Castrum Novum from Revenant's Toll. We had to run from Brittlebark in the south, or teleport to Jagged Crest and go from there.

Ah, Atomos and his minions... that was chaotic fun.

Remember when the map lied, like all the time? lol XD

"Nald choking Thal! I.. I did it again! Where is bastard sword connection between these two points again?"

"No no no, don't tell me - No! Here let me teleport to you I'll brt there, No don't worry I have enough anima - just --- Hey gloom weather the eye is out"

I do remember when there weren't that many people there. I didn't make it there before CT came out, but I was there soon afterwards.

There's this thread here, if anyone wants to contribute with their pictures.

Rejoice! We might get the old Coethas back in 3.0 thanks to the new Coethas locations!

sad enough it takes more than 2 years to redesign areas that already existed.

Back when i was geared up in my tin can paladin darklight gear on my original character xD

That is the one thing I am most hyped about to be honest.

You mean people with the current tomestone gear can idle 10 yalms to the left now?

Oh Yeah, I loved this place back then!!

I miss frolicking in the little field. :(

I know its not Mor Dhona but it is Old! Wait, isnt that area...

^this was one of the greatest parts of 1.0 imo - the last 10 days the servers were up. The memories.

So is Mor Dhona going to eventually become a full sized town in the future? Based on the construction it looks like it could be several levels tall. It's easy to forget how much it has changed because you forget about the changes over time as you get used to them.

I miss the time when the pink fog implied danger ._.
