The thought of an invasion really excites me. I love seeing higher level characters in lower level zones, it's odd and helps keep you on your toes...like anything could happen.
The other day (before the announcement) I ran up to the big statue in blyde square where everybody hangs out. I noticed a bunch of dead heroes laying around. I looked at the chat and saw frantic cries for help saying there were level 27 devouring earth in the area. Some high level heroes showed up and cleaned up the mess. I just thought it was so cool. Sure, debt sucks but I wouldn't even mind dying from something like that.
On that note...does anyone know why higher level characters show up here and there? I was in kings row a while back and almost ran into a level 38 devouring earth on the steps of the police station. I've seen other high level enemies out of place numerous times. How do they get there?
