June Version Update (04/27/2007)

Actually, I'm pretty sure those are cages to hold monsters or something... If they were elevators, then the tunnels that connect the rooms would serve no purpose. Maybe there are prisoners in the cages that you need to free somehow?

Pretty big cages if they are indeed for something... oh wait a second. The experiment we fought in the BC was Khimaira No. 13 yes? That means they did lots of experiments. Perhaps those large cages are other Khimaira experiments? I suppose since it was the Halzham Testing Grounds it would make sense. Plus the cages look about Khimaira's size.

Oooh, you gave me a idea. By each of the cagevators, there are dots, right? Maybe the dots symbolize what # the khimaira is. For example, Khimaira 2, Khimaira 3, etc. (Khimaira 1 would either be "Khimaira 1" or just a generic "Khimaira" like the Hediva Khimaira.)

5 bucks that you need to spend Nyzul Points to enter .

EDIT: Let's see if someone sees a missing drop that would be the "saving grace of the game" to several people on these forums. <_<

I find it hilarious that people expect SE to plant the saving grace of the game in the pits of hell.

[Dezzimal]

have you always been this bitter wafik?

Eh? I'm talking about HTG being "Hell" considering we're expecting to see those mobs from there. I think it's funny that SE sends their players to "hell" to get the good items.

durka durka off to bed.

Sky
Ground
Sea
Underground? or Hell? or Cave? Subterranea? We need non-official term asap srysly.

[Kuya]

How about: ItsgonnasuckmorethanCoPdynamis?

Fuck you, today sucks.

Edit: And if people start calling it Underground or Cave, im going to fucking rape a bitch.

Some people decided a loooooooooooong time ago that Hazhalm was going to be called earth (plus there's an "earth" in the auto-translator).

[Beckwin]

"Hell" kinda has a nice ring to it.

Earth...

Or Alchemy, since that seems to be the theme lol.

Then again, I can't recall the last time I've seen "moon" called "moon".

<moon> was wiped from existence as of CoP release I believe...

We should save the unofficial autotranslator term for the final endgame area of ToAU.

If Hazhalm ends up having waiting periods, time limits, or some payment to enter, then this won't be it. The final endgame area for ToAU will be an area that, once you've completed the mission required to access it for the first time, you will be able to enter at any time for any duration on a whim.

I can go to sky whenever I feel like it and spend however long I want there. Same with sea. Let's make sure Hazhalm has the same freedom that sky and sea has before we give it an autotranslator nickname.

[Beckwin]

I'm thinking HTG is gonna be it for ToAU endgame. Storyline, completion item, and full access should finish up in the next major update following the June one.

[Kaylia]

Unless they pull a fast one on us and add new area, Halzham testing ground is the only area left in the .dat? No?


That said, there is still a bunch of dead end that could be used to pop NM in Undersea ruin. Every area near salvage entrance have a weird dead end, and the bottom floor have like 4 empty room. Kinda look like sea

If this is it, then it likely means that the zone we see, with the spiraling tunnels and large rooms and devices on each floor, will be completely open to the public and not instanced at all. There will be no restrictions on when or how often or for how long you can be inside. Anytime you want to go, you just go.

I just hope that whatever they put there will be able to accommodate several LSs and/or solo activity (in the same manner that some solo zipacna or despot, but in a way that won't cockblock other people or LSs).

[Tulun]

Yes... hopefully they'll learn their lessons from sky and sea, and make the 'end game' area have mobs that are interesting to fight, not just awkward means of claiming or too awkward means of popping.
