So whatever was the story of the missing Deep Dungeon for Shadowbringers?

[Kaliesto]

ARR/HW - Palace of the Dead
SB - Heaven on High
SHB -????
EW - Eureka Orthos

I always thought that was odd, I read rumors there was suppose to be one, but I don't know if it is a fact or not.

They wanted to divert those resources to different types of content. They eventually returned to them due to popular demand. A bit like Hildibrand's hiatus.

Bozja was the DD

[Vyrerus]

They substituted it with Bozja's more in depth Critical Events system which brought in Duels as well as Instances within Instances with Castrum Lacus Litorum and Dalriada.

As well as the Alliance raid between the two Bozja "overworld" instances, Delubnum Reginae and its Savage variant.

I think just like Hildibrand, they were burned out from it and took a Break from it to do something else.
Just like how they are taking a break from doing more Massive Zones for the Next Relic.

I always felt that the intention was to just release a deep dungeon every other expansion:
- ARR: PotD
- HW: none (other than bolting-on more PotD floors, but when we are talking randomized content, it isn't a design-from-scratch effort)
- SB: HoH
- ShB: none
- EW: Orthos

ARR didn't have POTD, that was 3.35 with the first 50 floors, and 3.45 released the last 150 floors, so they started in HW.

Right you are. Faulty memory on my part. I was pretty sure I remember running PotD floor 50 shortly before I had to evacuate for a hurricane in 2015. Turns out, it was 2016 - so HW.

Yeah, then the missing deep dungeon for ShB is a bit weird.

No worries! That was also some years ago lol... so I get it.

My only guess is they had other things they wanted to do and no time to do everything, so things got cut unfortunately. They found that they were popular though with everyone asking about DDs and Hildibrand constantly. I wouldn't mind some First lore though, so perhaps in the future.

I wish we'd have gotten a new Bozja and not this rehash of PotD. It's fun but ultimately very samey.
