Assuming the positives outweigh the negatives, can assassin box difficulty please be adjusted a bit so it falls closer to the middle between resuscitant and intercessor boxes? The gap is so large that even when resus boxes ID as trivially constructed gadgets, assassin boxes ID around "odds against you" or "longshot" and I'm not sure if there are enough, if any, box dropping critters in between.

Kaxis made an excellent post over a year ago covering box difficulty, which highlights that gap well. http://elanthipedia.org/w/index.php/Post:Box_Difficulty_For_Mid_to_High_Level_Critters_-_08/29/2012_-_11:36

The change shouldn't impact teaching in a negative way since low difficulty boxes teach best anyway, excluding the simplest of course, and the change should help bridge the gap between resus and intercessor boxes.

I... have no idea how to do that or even what controls it. If no one else takes a look at it I'll try and squeeze in some time to learn the system after HE13.

My hope continues to be for a NEW undead skinable and box dropping critter that fills the gap.

Any word on whether or not these can be tweaked?

"...The Xala'shar encampment was destroyed by our faithful Guildleaders and other helping hands and there has been no threat since that time. The military forces from Ulf'Hara Keep, dispatched immediately following the guild leaders’ efforts, have pushed the Xala'shar threat deep into the Journalai mountains..."

Xala'shar don't exist as a 24/7 mob currently.

Pretty sure it was specifically stated that they were not going to be permanent, and were only there for a quick high level test subject.

I don't know about the area through the portal but the critters didn't seem any different from what was invading in Prime when the circle cap was raised. All they really did for test was turn on a recently made invasion critter for us to test with.

I'd like to see Xala'shar behind that gate as well. If their hunting grounds extended far enough west to give us a traversible path (with a survival barrier) between northern Forfedhar, Knife Clan and Therengia; even better.

>But they were going to be 24/7 starting in 3.1, much like moths were a new hunting area and critter, these were intended to be also.

Happen to have a link to that post? I couldn't find anything that said that.
