My first quest!

xivilyn

Hi everyone. My first attempt at making a quest / dungeon. If anyone would like to review it / give feedback I'd appreciate it! I will be happy to run / review your dungeon in return.

Name:Tomb of Talanos
ID: NW-DGZ62JVB3
Designed for solo play. Combat is fairly challenging.
#Story, #Combat

Thanks in advance to anyone who gives it a shot

xivilyn

hmmm no one attempted it yet, anyone wanna give it a shot? :P

Just played through, rated and reviewed.

Your dungeon was very enjoyable, with some exciting encounters. I was hoping that the finale would have been a big boss encounter.

By the way, how did you create your golems?

xivilyn

Nice, thank you
I am waiting for a friend or two to try yours since it's a 3-5 man but i will try it as soon as I can with them!

The golems are just ogre's reskinned as bone golems :P

I ran out of resources to put more mobs in but I can try to figure out how to do a last boss encounter, thanks for the feedback

hardrokka

Spawning multiple elite mobs around you and a big "boss" mob after the last dialogue would do the trick nicely.

I'll try yours when I get a chance. Check mine out too, the code is NW-DTCQAWOM3 and the name is "The Quest for Magic - Part 1".

Just ran yours, here's my impressions:

- Waaay more combat than I was expecting. When I see a description say something is soloable, I'm not expecting 2-3 encounters stacked on top of each other. The undead in the western crypt in particular seemed very crowded. That said, I did make it through solo without fatalities, so it's manageable.

- I liked the ritual room: Nice effects, the sound ambience in particular was cool.

- Kobolds seemed a little out of place. There didn't seem to be a reason for them to be there

- I really liked the alternate ending ability. While I ended up going with the "kill the lich" ending, it's nice to know that there's an alternative (I didn't explore it, though, so I can't say that it actually works)

Great remake of the map. Really liked the puzzles. You might want to make a note that it is soloable but only if you're brave that type of thing. More people might try it, I had to run it a cpl times solo because I'm dumb and managed to somehow skip the review process the first 2 times lol

Thanks for the feedback!

Based on feedback I made several changes. The quest is a bit longer now and has an end boss. Also made it more solo-friendly. Thanks to those who tried it and for the feedback.

When you first talk to Aeria Talanos is spelled wrong in the dialogue. (Tanalos) I don't know if that is intentional. Same thing happens when you speak to Talanos too. Good quest i enjoyed it.
