[Suggestion] Future Of The Shadow Shard

The Heroes have had so many more land options than Villains, but instead of writing in new lands for villains to occupy ... why not start sharing? In other words ...

MAKE ALL THE SHADOW SHARD MAPS CO-OP ZONES!

Maybe the Rularuu are a bigger threat than we all thought and it would only take a cooperative effort to clean up (as hinted in Ouroboros and the Incarnate storylines)? Maybe the villains found a way to sneak in a base far from Firebase Zulu to stake their claim (there's so much map to work with--a new or reformed piece of rock shouldn't be too hard)? Whatever your creative pleasure, it's time we offer the Villains a few more options.

So, once again, please ... MAKE ALL THE SHADOW SHARD MAPS CO-OP ZONES!

Thank you and have a great day!

I have always agreed with this.

Could a different portal just be placed in the same base or would it be better of the villains made their own firebase on some opposite rock?

I'm still hoping that if/when the Shard gets looked at again it gets a proper revamp, not just sticking a villain portal in and making it co-op. We have enough co-op content that makes villains save the world already, surely there's a better reason for them to go there than just because they can.

Also notable, there's a mid-level redside story arc that has Arachnos attempting to establish a base in the Shard. You ever wonder why they have mole points alpha and charlie but no bravo? It's cause Bravo got taken over by Arachnos, in that arc. And then subsequently re-taken over by the minions of Rularuu, but still.

All, no. The final one, maybe.

Give them villain equivalents with villain content, yes. (As well as giving the heroside ones more, real and up to date, NON PRAETORIAN, NON INCARNATE content.)

Though the way the devs "revamp" lately, they'll probably destroy three of them with... I don't know... exploding Ruularu and stick a couple Praetorians in the one zone that's left, no matter how nonsensical it would be. And lock the zone to anyone who doesn't have a +1 or better level shift.


Wanted: Origin centric story arcs.
If you've only played an AT once (one set combo) and "hate" it - don't give up. Roll a different combo. It may just be those sets not clicking for you.
