Hey all, just finished working on and published my first quest.
Its taken me a few weeks to create, little bit here and there after work. Really keen to see what others think about it and have people play it!

Map is called 'Disturbance at Rose Mansion' by @Zala1
Short Code: NW-DCD6J53JU
Average Duration: 15 minutes
Starts at: (NPC or location) Nobleman Burkhard

Description:
During a banquet at Rose Mansion where a large group of Nobleman and women were gathered, they were attacked.
Speak with Nobleman Burkhard who was lucky enough to escape to find out more.

Battle custom made wizards, witches and other creatures in new costumes not seen before!

This is intended to be for solo play, taking your companion with you will be a good idea for some encounters- or a friend. Don't be afraid to burn a potion or two!

Thanks for reading and I hope you go and play my map :)

    Hey zala, just tried your foundry....just wanted to let you know my experience. I did not finish your foundry unfortunately. I would have liked to have played it through to the end and give a rating. However, I think it would be more beneficial to give my experience to you and have you translate that into any possible adjustments and republish it with changes and get well rated.

    Though at first it seemed like it was going to be interesting, you did something most people do NOT enjoy, especially for a solo mission. You stacked a lot of mobs, especially stacked high difficulty mob encounters. This is something that everyone seems to want to do and needs to resist the temptation to do. Though each class will have a different experience, you have to take into consideration balance for how each class would be able to handle this run(companions and types also make things a bit more complicated for making it the right challenge).


    I am a lvl 40 CW with a lvl 15 Tank companion. Even with the couple of friendly encounter guards involved, none of them will hold any meaningful amount of agro from me to do my job and execute the run successfully with the stacking. Since the very first 2 separate encounters I experienced were face-slam stacking encounters that overwhelmed me, I left. This is generally a turn off to most players and will drive most people away.

    I am curious, did you get a chance to play test your foundry yourself solo after it was live on the server? If not try it out and see how it feels to you from a player's perspective. Of course again player class will change that experience also.

    Though my time in your foundry was brief, you did lure me in to want to try it, and I still do. I wanted to see what your story and your vision was about. Unfortunately, the encounter stacking was a turnoff like I said. Please take my experience as constructively as possible and see if you think it warrants changing. I'd like to try it out again with a more balanced combat flow into your story.

    I just published mine last night too, so check mine out also and see what you think(but it's not at all a solo, so take at least a couple friends or so with heals). Hopefully they will get the music and other little bugs fixed for us soon. Missing sounds and music really takes away from the immersive experience.

    My foundry post with info is here:

    Let me know what ya think zala!

    thanks :)
