HAPPY APRIL FOOLS DAY

This would almost be funny except you got the date wrong since the new instance cluster is coming out with Update 16.
Didn't necessarily get the date wrong. :)Quote:

glad to hear it is not 2. HA!
I certainly recall reading it was going to be two instances not that it matters that much whether it is two, three or four - just getting some new traditional group content is going to be enough to keep my interest!Quote:

Only devs could count irrelevant junk that's part of epic story like retaking weathertop, or defeating pirate leader in central gondor as isntance equal to group content.Quote:

@friendsofthetook - your signature is IMHO too big to fit these forums.
If possible, kindly consider making it smaller.
*P.S
your idea is awesome! I wish they implemented it in.
I wish I was not in the dark on information regarding a new instance cluster. When I think instance cluster I see three mans, six mans, and a new raid. Not only those but a good reward system that gives the players initiatives to do these instances and cool itemizations.
What I picture now is something like the bells of dale. Which including nothing exciting for the players. Therefore if the instance cluster is something similar like this one a lot of players are going to be disappointed.
I want to be explained why it is so hard to make instances unique. This including having a cool exclusive loot table for each special instances. The universal loot should be for the world not the instances. Bring this back and a lot of my friends will come back to the game.
For the cynics, that's 0.Quote:

Can we please have real information?
What killed Bells of Dale (and the entire RoR instance cluster for that matter) was garbage itemization without three encounters substituting for a raid.Quote:

I agree. Why is it so hard to make those players happy and just make that system go away for the traditional type of instances.Quote:

Hopefully, Turbine have learned their lesson from the last cluster.Quote:
