New GA Dungeon: Goblin Cave

 
 
Level 220 - 240
3 - 5 Players
 
Are you brave enough to reach the deepest cellar of the Goblin Cave? Where Goblins hide their more precious ores!
 

Dungeon Maps:

  

 
Game mechanic:

At the begining, in the first basement's big room: access to second basement would be closed and there would be only a Little Goblin in the middle.
Dungeon would really begin when players kill it.
From this point the group will have to face a succession of waves make up by different kinds of Goblins populating the cave.
When I say "wave", I mean "random spawn all around the room": individual spawn and big groups of mobs spawn (mobs should have a big aggro radius.)
Each new wave should be made up by stronger mobs, more and more numerous.
Next wave would not spawn if all the mobs of the previous one were not killed.
There would be few seconds between each waves to allow players regrouping.
After a certain number of waves, second basement access would be open.
 

Waves example:

• Goblin Worker & Goblin Server
• Goblin Guard & Goblin Warrior
• Goblin Sword, Goblin Mace & Goblin Mage
• Goblin Polearm, Goblin Knuckler & Goblin Wizard
• Gem Goblin Guard & Gem Goblin Wizard
• Gem Goblin Warrior & Gem Goblin Mage

 
At the beginning of the second basement, in the gallery, there would be a huge number of BloodBat.
Next, in the big room, like for currents dungeons, there would be a boss (Grand Goblin King) in the middle of a big group of all kind of Goblin mobs.
When players defeat this first boss another one would spawn in the second basement's small room.
It would be alone but really strong, like a Grand Goblin Wizard who can aoe, debuff and sleep.
Dungeon would be finished after the death of this boss.

I had this idea a looong time ago when GA was announced, but since you've put together this pot I will support it. good work.

[Arckadia]

After almost one year, I up this suggestion !

I made an update according to the last patches and I added the rewards list (plus new items associated).

 

[Castanho]

Its a awesome suggest. 

But i would like to suggest you, another suggest. LOL 

 

Dungeons for low levels too!

So the game stop becoming based on end levels only.

 

a Small, mini dungeon for level 50-65 so new players can have a taste of what it is, another lvl 115-130, 150-165, this one 200+

[Arckadia]

Dungeons for lower level already exist, here the list of all the dungeons available:

• Cave of Ulverick (120-150)
• Halls of Oblivion (140-170)
• Sea of Dawn (160-190)
• Cave of Ulverick (200-235)
• Halls of Oblivion (200-235)
• Sea of Dawn (210-240)

I never tried, but I'm quite sure dungeons below level 200 never get started...

If it was harder to level and if it was not necessary to have Premium account to get xp from dungeon, I guess it would be a good choice to have lower instance version, but at the moment I think it's just a waste of time.

What the game needs for now it's end game content! (If you are a 230 PVM player you should understand why...)

 

And for that, until we see new Orlo maps, I think game arena is a great tool to develop content quickly (or it should be).

This dungeon, like the Sikuku Prison one (http://forums.warppo...rground-prison/) doesn't need to develop a lot of things from scratch, more or less everything already exists ingame (because the game has a big potential to recycle stuff in GA).

For what I heard, dev'team is small, so on my suggestions I try to save complicates/time cunsumming thingies (jewelry is a good example: it's a new usefull stuff for what you only need to create some icons and database entries, no 3D models).

I know it's easier to tell than to create, but what I mean is: if dev'team add new dungeons regularly with items more difficult to get players will have something to achieve while dev'team is developing substantial content.

[DigitalKitten]

I absolutely love this idea. Would be fun to have a dark PvP arena as well, +1

[Genesis]

Goblin Caves has been on our candidate list for Game Arena dungeons since its inception (http://forums.warppo...eyond/?p=624518), so there's a good chance that this thread will become a point of reference in future to draw in community ideas.

 

I'm especially interested in what the community expects when it comes to fight mechanics and rewards, so the more ideas you have in those areas the better.

 

Good work so far, keep it up!
