Make the Hallow of the Last Standing Stone (that contains the Aspects of Hart) and the Dark Nest (that contains the Aspects of Crow) their own areas. Thus, totems and guards cannot protect them.

Why?

- The Tide lords and Earth (lords?) are not only on separate planes to the main organization, they are not defendable by statues or guards.

- The Avatars of Moon/Night are too difficult for the cities to slay. This would provide another option for attacking something dear to the communes.

- The extra power generation for both communes resulting from these areas is minor.

- Separate areas could be extended. (halo.gif)

- It would give Druids something more substantial to protect.

I also like that entering the Nest requires passing through Etherglom's guards, while entering the Hallow does not. At least while the balance of power is the way that it is.

No one would attack them anymore than they do now. It is a moot point. Furthermore, the Avatars have been slain the past. It can be done. Plus, I don't even think there are any guards in the nest/stone or any active totems.

Well that's true, but they aren't trying! sad.gif

I actually don't think it's possible to get guards into the nest, since it involves climbing up. Totems are possible, though, if there were enough Crow followers. I don't see a totem being all THAT nasty, though- if you're raiding the aspects, you can cure a totem, and if there isn't active defence you will only hit a totem when you pay each aspect a visit.

Actually, going from 4power per essence(where we used to be) down to 1... that's slightly hurtful.

Heh, I meant from the area itself. Ie, the totems.

It is possible.


The Aspects of Crow/Hart dont call out when attacked so they are easily slain.

it's damn near impossible to even get in, with the archway, totem, and guards at the entrance to it. And the only time the Moon Avatars were killed was after the totem fix, and before the place was filled with guards and champions. Though, the main problem is the archway.

We never wanted archways. You can all thank Visaeris for those.

But it is easy to get in.

The Aspects should definitely call out for help on the relevant druid/mage channel though. It's a little -too- easy otherwise.

It's like a quest! Don't show them how to do it, if they can't figure it out on their own, Avaaaaaaer.
