    More like Haukke Manor!

    I'd love to see more dungeons/raids with the dark/evil feeling that Haukke Manor provides. To me, this particular dungeon's style, art and flow feels like a few I have ran in older MMO's, which is a good thing to me.

    I am only level 33 at the moment, so my experience with the game is limited. However, I personally feel like the earlier dungeons were made for smaller kids.

    If anyone else agrees with the overall sentiment of my post; please add your ideas to the mix. Unfortunately, I am unsure what other dark themes they could use to design content other than this one good example that is already in-game.

    I look forward to reading all responses and hopefully some new ideas.

    Well you'll be glad when you reach Amdapor Keep and Haukke Manor HM then. They have a similar feel to it. Amdapor is more of a demon theme and Haukke Manor HM is exactly the same as the normal mode, with some twists.

    If you haven't seen, Amdapor Township looks like it fits very in line with what you want: http://i.imgur.com/6goBtxo.jpg

    Completely random, I know:

    But I'd like to just say here that Haukke Manor can be done without a tank. My DF group just proved it...

    Although I totally agree with you about Haukke Manor, I disagree all dungeons before that are 'made for kids'. Were you paying attention to your surroundings in Sastasha for instance? If you did, you would notice deeper in the pirates had taken hostages in the form of young women (lalafell and miqo'te) whom they had imprisoned within the dungeon, and, judging by their speech bubbles, were being kept as sex slaves.

    Especially in the appropriately named 'The Hole', where if you open the gate to it, one of the women inside, thinking your character is another pirate, pleads for her life screaming something like "Please don't hurt me! I'm not with them! I swear on what little virtue I have left!" suggesting the poor girl had been regularly sexually abused by her captors. Even the battlefield at the end where the final boss fight took place against the Sahagin NM was called 'the Sultana's Lap', hinting even further the crude, chauvinistic and sadistic attitudes of the pirates. I only wish going through that dungeon and killing the pirates would allow the prisoners to escape, but sadly...
