Firebase Zulu from PI Bldg

We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.

I usually just do the missions solo, you can form a team if you like. However, I doubt that people like to run missions in the Shard. The missions are similar to those of Borea in Rikti War Zone. The contacts in the Shard never run out of missions.

The missions don't lead to anything. However, you will get a feel of what the zone has, what might be going on, and to explore the zone. The contacts introduce you to the next contact very easily. Different contacts have different interests, so their missions vary as well.

There are no requirements to do the Shard tfs (I guess the level requirement is removed, is it?). It would help if you explore the zone beforehand. Because there will be hunt missions at Point X-Ray, for example. It would be a hassle if your map is completely covered up by fog of war and there are no clues where Point X-Ray is.

If you're very new to the zone, you should know that there is a jet pack vendor, in case your traveling power is not convenient for the Shard. Try to learn the gravity geyser. If you follow the contact, you can gain access to another portal in a cave from Firebase Zulu to Cascade. There are Kora fruit missions from Dr. Huxley in Cascade where you can pick "fruits" if you're into this kind of thing. There are no mission contacts in the Chantry and the Storm Palace, but you can try hunting there if you like, either for a change or for some challenges, the mobs are pretty tough there.

No level requirements were removed from TFs/SFs/Trials with I16 -- only the restriction on level for entering a previously-level-restricted zone (such as some Hazard Zones).

The minimum level requirements are either 40 or 44 still, depending on the TF involved.
