Reading alot of posts from what must be high level chars, about lvl 10 cap quests and super uber mobs in the deep dark places. I have yet to get a PC to level 7, and find surviving to six a huge accomplishment. Part of the reason I like playing here. I do admit, I play sporadicaly, but it seems to me, at level 8+, questing should be what you do in your spare time, not what you do. Pushing the uber plot,server changeing stuff the makeing of legends, not trying to finish yet another pwrqst grind.  But as I am simply jealous of anyone that can maintain a level six or better pc for any length of time, I am probably just wrong..

Quote from: Listen in Silence;123630I'd rather have a randomly spawning, highly powerful singular encounter than mist ogre groups spread all over that make goals such as the Wild Orcs II quest ridiculously difficult to reach. I used to like that quest.

Agreed. I generally won't even do orcs II simply because of how annoying it is as a frontliner to blow through a vast majority of consumables in the quest without getting them anywhere near adequately replaced by the drop, then having to wade through the mist ogres a second time on the way out without said adequate consumable supply. Without that second spawning it would be do-able but the frustration factor is too high as it is. Scaling down the encounter a tad with some of the options Listen presented would maintain the scariness of the ogres while allowing for the possibility for fun and a sense of accomplishment to be a higher probable outcome than sheer frustration.

Instead of opening my usual questing group up to include someone who can kill mist ogres, I'd rather just stop taking this quest forever.

I just say make them spawn less, they spawn way too frequently, way more than beholders used to in teh sand cavez

More orc shamans imo.

Unless I'm wrong, there is one simple thing that can greatly help whichever way you want to deal with the ogres: silence.
