The preorder zone is quite grey at level 46. Unfortunately, I and the other people I play with regularly have already outleveled this AP.

The destructible walls look kinda neat, though.

It's a pretty safe bet that they will be adding more Heritage quests as time goes on. Maybe not in the Adventure Packs, though.

I haven't done any the stuff yet, I did claim my ring which was nice for a level 29 paladin. I think this AP is geared for the 29-35ish crowd in majority but supposedly a few raid mobs for you high level guys and some quests for lower levels. Who knows though until it comes out.

I hear the quest is only for 2 people is that correct Buad?

Buadyen · 03-07-2005

You mean the preorder quest? I dunno, I blasted my way through it solo.

yes the preorder quest, but I guess you are much higher level than me so you wouldn't know for sure

Wow I did this past weekend with my gf who plays a 27 guardian. We had an absolute blast and it was definitely challenging. The loot is outstanding and mobs are very cool looking and OMG @ the experience. We didn't get to finish it though the ghosts were a bit much for a 29 and 27 though I did ding 30 and will be going back to finish it soon.

I must say I like the idea of a 2 person instance, that isn't timed it was just very cool.
