No idea if this has been suggested before, but doesn't it make sense to make the Ascalon Settlement area into an outpost as well? It's not the easiest place to get to for people around that level and IS a settlement after all i.e. outpost, so why not make it a proper outpost area?

It's only a minutes walk from D'allessio.

wolver1ne · Nov 10, 2005, 11:32 AM // 11:32

Walking there is a challenge to some, so I say keep it as it is.

Omega_2005 · Nov 10, 2005, 11:39 AM // 11:39

I think there is one close by to it... Beetletun I think... that is about 1-2 minutes of running/killing to get there, so the only advice I can think of is to level and get some better armor before going there.

dont be lazy, walk up there
its good for health

Xenrath · Nov 10, 2005, 01:11 PM // 13:11

hehe well I have 3 level 20 chars so it's not a problem for me, just seems to make more sense to have it as an Outpost anyway seeing as how there are some outposts which have less buildings and are much smaller as well.

At the levels that I reach LA at, the only way I can get up there is to take Devona, Mhenlo, Cynn, and Aidan with me. And yes, it's pretty annoying to only get up there once.

Symeon · Nov 10, 2005, 04:09 PM // 16:09

It's too near to Bergen Hot Springs, D'Alessio and Beetletun to need to be an outpost.

Sister Rosette · Nov 10, 2005, 04:15 PM // 16:15

Not to mention the only thing there even worth interacting with
is the Skills Trainer.

is just a little run if u cant make it then try later some of those skills are really not needed if u have low lvl characters. try again later when u lvl 20 with 12 attribute stuff and get them.

This would be solved with one thing.

Put a merchant in the settlement, but keep it as it is. I cant tell you how many times I've been up there and just said "Damn, I wish there was a merchant here"

Maybe if it became an outpost in Chapter 2, that'd be fine. Show the progression of time and the changes in the Kryta after the end of the game.

/signed because of the sheer annoyance of the place!

It doesn't sound like bad idea though after all it is settlement untill all return to Ascalon.I can't help wondering how they keep protected agaisnt all the ettins around there.

One and Two · Nov 11, 2005, 12:03 AM // 00:03

The ettins feel bad about hitting the little children.

Seriously, it doesn't need a town. All it has is a skill trainer.

If you want skills, play the game and get to Ember Light Camp. It has all the non-elites up for purchase.

EternalTempest · Nov 11, 2005, 12:09 AM // 00:09

That and how the Titans - Defend Krytia .. use that town. The quest would have to change.
Doesn't bother me either way.

Sofonisba · Nov 11, 2005, 12:26 AM // 00:26

It has the skills trainer, but also 3-4 quests you have to attain and be rewarded for. So, it's not a one-time run you have to make, it's zoning and re-zoning for Reversing the Skales, Blankets, etc. Plus if you change professions and want to get some of those skills before Ember Light Camp...

King Symeon, why make Fisherman's Haven an outpost, when it's so close to Sanctum Cay?

I'm not passionate about making Ascalon Settlement an outpost, but /signed anyway - it's annoying.

It should be an outpost, but it help the story along more if it was made into an outpost (or maybe even a town) in the second chapter. After all, we are supposed to get a continuation of the storyline involving Ascalon.

It will screw up the prize pig quest, arguebly the best quest that has ever existed.

LOL on pig quest
