Why remove the gates?

Sorry - you're removed the gates from FB39/51/59?

Why?

That was one of the interesting things to learn in the game - and, perhaps more importantly, was a teaching experience in slowly increasing complexity leading up to the horror that is the gate system in 79. (The ones in 99 seem to get simpler again.)

That just seems.... poor.

So, let me guess:
Some dev, whilst adding the new boss stuff, accidentally broke something in 51, so you removed the gates entirely.

Sheesh. One of the only things where "I spent lots of money on packs" isn't important.

And you take it away and give level 90 characters 5k xp.

    Um, what gates?

    You mean the doors in BH/FB instances?

    They were working earlier today for me, in BH51 and BH29. Or are you talking about something else?

    And yeah, they are annoying, especially the one in BH69, BH79, and BH59. in that order.

    And a handful of other alts, all 79 and under.

    Everything has its beginnings, but it doesn't start at one. It starts long before that... The world is born From zero. The moment zero becomes one is the moment the world springs to life. One becomes 2. 2 becomes 10. 10 becomes 100. taking it all back to one solves nothing. so long as zero remains... One.. Will eventually grow to 100 again.

    ...idiots. what they mean by gates is the extra ones in different instances, like when you finish 39 and it says "the gates blahblahblah are open..." they removed them, and there is a secret boss added to 51, not the who freakin gate system removed.

    I read the patch notes, so now I'm on the same page QQ

    And we won't know until we run the instances later today (it's after midnight, so therefore, Wednesday now). Since I have to go to class at 6:30 am tomorrow, I'm going to bed. I'll find out tomorrow, most likely amidst MASSIVE and UNENDING QQ.

    Well... Unending QQ is all that happens around here, so whatever.

    b:bye

    Am I happy they got rid of the gates? Yes and no...

    Yes, because it helps stacked bh'ers get out of 59 fast. It's bad enough no one wants to wine it.

    No, because they were removed AFTER I left bh59 range...
    Censorship is the bane of creativity. Censorship is the bane of personality. Most of all...censorship is the bane of identity.

    My main is Ivy_. I'm better known as Destini. Also known as _Yvi. Yes, I have an identity crisis. b:chuckle

    Looking for a signature for this character. Wanna make me one?

    has anyone ever run fb51 "backwards"? It was quite interesting to do it taking the left path first and opening a different set of doors, taking a different path - getting to rankar first, doing fushma second, and following the path where you normally kill the guard after fushma back around to get to wyvern. sure its a convoluted less straightforward way of doing the instance - but it was fun.

    They want to make it quicker to level up, so you start spending money on rank 9 sooner.

    idiots.

    The doors in the instances. The ones you used to have to kill the guards to get past.
