For the city in particular my main concern would be ensuring that guildhall's remain roughly where they are now. For example, the Darius Estate was built into the city walls dividing the East gate (In the Wide) and Palace districts (with an entrance in each).

Additionally I know the palace district was recently given a facelift as part of an IC initiative by the Halls of Inner Light to beautify the area, adding benches and overhauled memorials, with a garden and park area currently under construction but not yet finished - I would hope things like this would still remain in the world after any sort of revamp.

I would like to suggest adding a caravan to kraak helzak as to increase the possibilities the city offers and to give kraak helzak a better connection to the world.

Maybe some connection to Doron Amar's surroundings would also make sense.

There already is a direct caravan to Kraak Helzak...but you need a Stout PC to know about it! :dance:

Oh excuse my ignorance then XD.

Though I kinda feel like it would be good to not hide it or these kind of caravans in general to just vind in these areas better :).

I would argue isn't so much hidden as is a perk only available to Stouts, since the Home Location directly to the Kingdom was removed from the Nexus, and a Home Location placeble was never put into Kraak Helzak, either.

Well the idea here for me would just be having the caravan end at the main gates to these locations be it Doron Amar or Kraak Helzak.

This way they would just be easier accessible offering chances for RP and noone would just end up directly in the throne room if you know what I mean :).

If you go to the wide IG at the moment, what do you all see? Are there merchants there? I thought I heard that the epic items are now there or something?

Bunch of merchants, yeah. It's worth noting that some time ago the Wide was moved from the palace district to the East Gate. The old spot int he palace district that used to have the merchants is currently a construction site for gardens.

Can someone say with weight if tfunke’s new BG maps are being accepted and implemented, or has this been rejected?

Thank you.
