Maze Engine Quest

I'm level 80.

Previously when I was level 70, I would do the Defending The Coast quest - the demons would appear, I would fight them and then leave, etc.

Now though, with the new Undermountain release the quest seems to be borked.

Let's say my quest leads to the Tower District. When I land there, I'm level 80, as always none of the mobs recognize me. I find the clump of skulls on the ground touch it and wait for the demons to appear.

When they do - instead of being level 80 - they are now level 10 AND so am I!

So now, not only am I fighting the demons for the quest, I'm also fighting all the trash mobs around us. And when the battle is over - I'm STILL level 10! Sooo now I need to fight my way out of the area back to the map.

The only time I change back to level 80 is when I take the map to transport to another location.

This is irritating as hell. Please fix!

Thank you
Dreena

    Working as intended, Welcome to MOD16. Scaling is being "tweeked". Hang in there hopefully they will hear these messages enough to make some changes

    While it is intended you get scaled down for fights in lower level regions, not scaling you down when you first get into the lower level region seems wrong. This "bug" actually favors the players as it allows you to roam freely until you start a fight.

    I'm fairly certain that this is a bug, the mobs should not be that high level on this particular map. I have forwarded the report as a bug.

    Instanced quests in that campaign are also broken. Rescue Slaves from the Drow in Manitol Derith has mobs level 81 with epic heroic encounter health and defense. Unplayable for a solo toon.

    The mobs aren't a high level - I'm *down* to *their* level fighting these demons. So basically, the demons, me and the mobs are now all level 10 - 12. Which is the correct level for the Tower area.

    But what's the point of me dropping down from level 80 to level 10? The demons and I used to be level 70 together - thus the quest for clearing the demons out of the Coast. I would fight them, then leave.

    Now it just seems like a waste of time to go *back* to an area to fight demons along with all the lower level npcs of that area.
