- Yes its a New Area ( Just because it's "Dat mined" doesn't make it old and its the Dat miners fault for pursuing that)
- Yes there will be new gear.. Why would they show off new gear in the Video.. and they showed New Gear that will drop from Dungeons in one of the Lodestone Post ( Check again)
- No, there not new Mobs.. however they have different skin Color like the Eye was all red ( because its really a self-destructing Bomb!), and who's to say there won't be new mobs that they havent shown yet?
I don't mind that they implemented the as-yet-unused area, but I do mind that we have little proof in the way of tight development. I mean, they used lots of preexisting mobs, so what? Big deal, right? What do you really expect? But it is a big deal when there are, like, no new ones either.
