AQ event inside low level towns

The next time you make an event for max level players in a raid group, it would be extremely nice, not to place one of them inside low level towns like Gadgetzan and Feathermoon Stronghold.

It seriously disrupts the game for people trying to quest or even just log out in an inn, to constantly be mindcontrolled, killed by others being mindcontrolled or just being ganked by the raid level elites killing everything in sight.

I was killed 3 times within 2 minutes, trying to hand in a quest. This sucks for lower level players and there’s no need for it to be placed inside towns - set it up just 100 yards away and there’s no problem.

The big bad bug men kill the npc’s in feralas too, LW trainer etc

Why they didn’t just have these outside the town and have waves attacking the gates or something and defender NPC’s trying to fight them off /shrugs

This might have been ok for the short duration back in the day but they extended the event too long without thinking about these towns.

Cant buy freaking noggenfogger is peace

If you think this event was bad I say brace yourself for the scourge invasion. You are right that the devs could have made some changes to bring the event into the modern day, to make it less disruptive, but that would require some thought and effort.

Why would the big bad guys only pester the high level raiders?

The max level raiders don’t get pestered by them - they’re not the ones doing quests in Gadgetzan or Feathermoon. Lower leveled players are and they have no recourse against level 60+ elites.

“Why would the big bad guys only pester the high level raiders?”
Same reason Kel’thuzad and Raggy aren’t standing in Elwynn Forest ready to gang up on level 1 characters: Because it’s a game.
This event is made for raiders, getting ready to step into AQ.

I get you’re probably just being a contrarian for the sake of it, but at the end of the day, it’s an online multiplayer game and not a “What would make sense from the bad guys perspective?” exercise.

This event was during 24 hours only in vanilla and classic, so actually it didnt affect low levels too much.
In SOD this event goes for entire week, so i understand your frustration. But you know we have a small indie company and a small team, which makes era, anniversary, cataclysm and sod. So they just dont have so much possibilities to take care of everything.
Bobby Kotick left Activision Blizzard and got all their money, so they are unable to hire more developers, sorry.

Also met this problem, so, now only Eastern kingdoms are available for levelling, because in feralas this camp is located just in the centre of alliance quest hub (didn’t remember its name). I think same situation is for ungoro, tanaris, silithus
