Dungeons Opening Up To Explore.

[Gnova]

I'd settle for something as simple as when the last loot chest has been opened and the loot claimed all the remaining mobs and leftover chests despawn. Then you can explore and look around where you maybe have never been and take in the sights.

Allowing gathering or mining in an instance can end up being a problem since it would end up being botted with no one to report them.

Yea that would be amazing. And if it was done right Duty Finder would need to be removed. They could even just give us dungeons that are not instance based and have nothing to do with Duty Finder. Give us the best of both worlds. This is another idea it means anybody that would like to explore an open world dungeon can and if they made it so there was no invisible walls that would be even better. There would have to be loads of them ether if each zone had about 1 big one 2 medium sizes one and 3 mini ones. I don't know when it comes to scale what Yoshida san and his team base it on. Depending on the sizes of the zones depends how many there are.

The spriggan cave in the central shroud would be a good place for an open world dungeon.

Random generated content is awesome, but if it's to be any good it usually becomes a bit complex (as in, a staple/focal point of many games is random generated content). I doubt it will be implemented anytime soon.

I would like the ability to enter the dungeon at a higher level and steamroll through it myself. I really enjoyed doing this in WoW to farm for gear that I wanted for transmog or just for fun.

I'd love to see more extra elements. Like having to do special mechanics in order to open a gate to be able to fight extra monsters, an extra boss, get extra chests and what not. Dungeon rewards should be dependant on the amount of goals you have accomplished in it. If incentives are good enough, it also might reduce the amount of speed runs people are doing.

Actually, in beta Tam Tara was a 'larger' instance. I also noticed that there are side paths to most of the dungeons that have been locked down for whatever reason. I'm interested in knowing why they removed these areas.

Because Tam Tara (Hard Mode) in patch 2.3. They weren't removed, just blocked off to make it more linear for new players.

I'd mention how Lost City is also 100% linear, despite being the top tier light party dungeon, but...oh, wait...darn. ^_^

This is why Sunken Temple is one of my favorite dungeons. It's weird, because you start with simple, linear dungeons for the teen levels, then you get stuff like all the little optional side tracks in places like Haukke, Brayflox, and Sunken Temple. You even get a choice of two different paths to take in Toto Rak. The mid level dungeons are very well designed. Then you get to level 50 and you're back to simple linear paths, even in the so-called "hard" versions of those previously well designed dungeons.

Sunken Temple where is that located?

With so many new dungeons in this game including the ones from HW makes me wanna explore them even more. So questions is will any dungeons in futer ever open up and become more like a opened world dungeon. Yes I know we will get The Palace Of The Dead which we'll be avaliable for soloing.

(吉田さん度もありがとうございます)(*^o^*) for adding this been wanting a dungeon I can solo since the game first lunched.

Question is do you think eventually we will get dungeons where you can explore and even gather or mine in?

Giving us a game with a more opened world fill.
