Gradual wilderness expansion

Post by Rias »

As some have noticed, the wilderness is expanding little by little. Don't get too geared up to run out and explore quite yet, as explorable areas won't be added till a bit later.

Minor wilderness changes: Shroomwood increased in size, minor reshaping of Kaldrgate Plains and Dry Prairie.

Major wilderness changes:
Tule Butte magically appeared in the Dry Prairie. Must be terraforming at work! (Just kidding, retcon).
Ebon Foothills area near Ebon Pass East.
Vaelgraten Forest (south) was changed to Wyrewood Forest.
Maulden Foothills between Wyrewood and Emleth Forests.
Emleth Prairie lost much of its southern land, which is now the Delmer Plains.
Passage from Wyrewood to Vaelgraten is mostly blocked by an escarpment.

The in-game wilderness map will use the same dark green for wooded hills that the compass does.

Cool additions. Looks like the majority were renaming of areas, with the exception of the Butte and the river expanding south a bit. Absolutely love the Butte and look forward to see what might be in store for its future.

Were the majority of these just changes to make areas more unique for future tasks? Or purely cosmetic? Regardless, awesome. My favorite part of keeping up with the wiki is updating the wilderness map; gives me a feeling of the scope of the changes we see.

Could have sworn I had a topic on the wilderness getting more dangerous, but I couldn't find it - so I'm using this one!

The wilderness is continuing to get more dangerous. Think twice before you rest, AFK, or leave your mount unattended out in the wilderness.
The lore compels me!

The wilderness is expanding a little more. Please ignore any weirdness to the far west over the next little while.
