i agree, that we need something new.
without copiing other services, but maybe
Realms meet CF meets infernum
like:
pull down the char lvl if u enter ice / light / poison.
make random spawn inside
restrict gear on these areas. (no elite), maybe normal uniques, normal or true gear, HH Gear.
add something to drop/grind or gain specific items or title, town-passports instead of ice light poison pass.
chance to drop LuckyTickets or kind of those stuff from random spawn (special) boss or mob.
its just a ground idea
and maybe it would need to be adjusted at some points.
-------------------
releasing Marble Mine etc, would been good aswell.
have a good one
