New hunting ground: Sorib Island

Perhaps some of you have noticed that spawns in Britannia have been nerfed. There are no longer big loot open spot spawns and even dungeons have been nerfed. This does not mean, that there's bad loot in Britannia, infact there's not many changes made - but basicly all the big loot monsters have been moved to Sorib Island.

The idea why, is this.
  • - IF you want to play safe, hunt with no risk of robbing, you can do that in Britannia.
    - IF you want bigger loot, you have to enter Sorib Island, where there are no restrictions in looting.
In other words: No risk, normal loot. Big(ger) risk, big(ger) loot.

You can enter Sorib Island somewhere between Britian City and Trinsic. There's a portal conjurer, that takes you to a transferring room, where you have to agree on the rules of Sorib Island. After agreeing (basicly to clean looting), you can enter the Island. Sorib Island is packed with the best monsters the shard has to offer and you might even find veins with high value.

Happy hunting,
Boris

Good idea.

One question, will this new area not just be perma camped by loot hungry murdars?

I'd hope there's still one or two good places to hunt safely in Britannia at least.

But on the whole, *thumbs up*

Well I don't see anybody going there without 4 poeple and fully blessed in hunting gear with cloths.. you'd need atleast about twice the amount of ppl to bring them down.

Sounds like a good idea.

By big loot do you mean there is no higher end cloth and ores in Brit anymore?

I hope there isn't, should be fun to see people working for their shit again.

1) Sorib Island is old Giant Island of T2A. Officially it's not in use, so you can't travel (rite/spell/etc.) there and you can't log out there.
2) Britannia with all it's dungeons and so forth, roll with the normal "no looting rules".

True if you want to do everything out there, but it's also possible to pop in and solo smaller stuff. The beach and east side of the Island are soloable.

1) There's really isn't much change in loot. Basicly open spot giants/dragons are history and small changes in dungeons. You can find big stuff in Britannia just like before.
2) No changes in ore veins.
