For those who did the annual survey, they suggested several areas to add a new elite dungeon to (see below). Are there any particular areas you'd like to see have an elite dungeon? Opinions on the ones listed on the survey?

Proposed ideas from the survey:
- Land out of Time theme
- Fight Caves/Jad remaster
- God Wars 1 theme
- Canafis slayer tower as an elite dungeon


I quite like Elite Dungeons, and wouldn't mind seeing more added, but my concern is how dead the current ones are... I've tried for days to get an ED3 team on the only ED discord and been unsuccessful.

If more were added, I'd rather have them in these areas/themes:
- Forinthry/Wilderness theme
- Darkmayer/vampire theme

Don't really care for other areas in the game tbh.. :P

Elite dungeoneering dungeon.

I don't know what their obsession is, everything in the survey had a dungeon attached to it. It seems the devs will keep making them regardless of what we think, or whether we actually play them.

Love to hear they're thinking about more ED's, I don't care what they do but hope they do more of them.

I think Anachronia themed one would be a great idea.

They're not dead, group ED is almost entirely pointless unless you're going for pet thresholds. A lot of people prefer solos.

I really like the idea of a Jad remaster. I love that boss and even though it's so easy I still do it occassionally for the lols. I was disappointed in kiln so a better version of the original (which was good until eoc) would be nice.

Solo seems very slow to do though... some a couple of the bosses are quite difficult to solo

I love ed and walk around with "the elite" title. I had a lot of feedback to what was wrong with ED1 and they didnt fix it there, but ED2 and ED3 were perfect. Maybe it will tie in with masterwork range and mage gear somehow? idk.
I have quit rsof because moderator found comments about darklight bonus damage on demons "off topic" for wildy flash mobs full of demons

I hope they relook at their design if they plan on making any more Elite Dungeons. Chewing through a couple million HP of trash mobs just to get 1 kc isn't fun. There wasn't even any randomisation, same spawns, same barrier guards, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz You'll get it when you deserve it.

Fight cave/kiln is the only theme where I feel an elite dungeon (if added) would make sense for a greater challenge, I find elite dungeons quite boring for lack of randomization in them and there don't need to be too many of them.

I honestly feel Anachronia deserves something more fun added there, than just a boring elite dungeon, something much more unique to its theme, something different and fresh!

Fight cave used to be very challenging, then Kiln was released to take it up a notch, then came combat of evolution which made them easy so an elite dungeon would serve to add a new challenge there make that place less boring too, makes sense?
