Same with the Catacombs, it is just there for more content. I miss those guaranteed big chest. It actually gave me some incentive to do Catacombs and Dread Thicket. :(

I like the Dread Thicket for levelling. Loads of small apes and other monsters.

I really liked the large chests that use to be in dread thicket and catacombs, and use to farm them when leveling up because of it. Now I never step foot in them, there's just no reason.
Some argue that catacombs in merciless is a good zone to farm because it's high level, but you could just farm lunaris 3 and get loot drops from piety at the same time. Last edited by Precaso#4570 on Nov 7, 2014, 1:54:49 AM

Catacombs lost ALL their use after Zana
how do i level my chars? get them to Fellshrine, get them to like 61-62 and then do Zana lvl 66-68 maps till 70 it is way faster and more lucrative to do so than to progress the story. around 70 or when i feel like it i do busts + piety for 3 passives and im done with the story catacombs are 100% pointless right now |

True about Catacombs.
They took out the chests when the boxes came in. So it'd be kinda nice if there was a box where the chest used to be, maybe one with a 50% chance to be rare. Also, with Zana once available levelling on low level maps is really a feasible method. I still complete the story minus Dominus before I enter maps. More of a habit than anything else, really. But I really go to the Dread Thicket quite often because I just like it. Is there a point to it? Dunno. Bird lover of Wraeclast

They should put the chests back in those two areas and also increase the chance slightly of having a corrupted areas spawn? Maybe give the catacombs a unqiue boss in the bridge room as well to make it worthwhile then.

If you saw my world map for all three difficulties you'd see it greyed out, as in unexplored. No point.

There's truly no reason to visit these areas since chests removal. In the past they would cheese you to farm there for the hypothetical rewards plus the higher level of zones, good for leveling.
DT - narrow desync prone passages, chaos snakes, hammer hitting bears, low magic mobs density, poor drops, average exp gain, bad (and dangerous) tileset Cata - low monster density in general, poor drops, low exp gain, inconvenient tileset Docks - the highest mob density, tons of magic mobs, high exp gain, potential for good rewards, unique mob, convenient tileset Skip DT-> enter Sarn-> ignore quests and Cata-> ask for docks WP-> farm as long as you wish-> do quest in no time-> start mapping Any point to enter DT or Cata nowadays?
