    Hi everyone. I have some small suggestions, and would like to know what you think.

    Question 1: Would you be in favor of adding some method to travel between the towers in LHC, similar to the gates in ToT?

    For example, adding an NPC that warps you between towers. While one can use regular teleport rocks to hop into towers, I find this to be too much of an inconvenience (too many maps to save, not really a justified cost.) This will help with players who want to turn in quests or exchange when their timer has run out, without having to wait until reset. While we didn't have something like this in the original LHC, I think the custom 1 hour timer warrants this small counterbalance. Of course, this is a quality of life/convenience change, and one could always "manage their time", but I don't think they should have to to such a degree. Would this be an issue for some lore wise? (I also imagine this to be implemented in a way such that the teleports get unlocked as you progress with the quests.)

    Question 2: When the time runs out, should a player be warped to El Nath upon leaving a safe spot (such as a tower), or somewhere else?

    Personally, I think the player should be yeeted into Desolate Moor or at least one map before. It's too punishing to be warped back to El Nath while having some unfinished business to tend to.

    I do have some concerns involving the looting system (even distribution of equips, etcs. and so on), but these are two simple things I feel we can quickly reach a consensus on.

    Thoughts?

    Let me try to connect your questions. I think it would be a good and minor change to be warped just outside the castle to Desolate Moor as you suggested. Right there could be a NPC who can send you back to the Towers, maybe though a „shortcut“ or something he will reveal to you after completing the existing or an extra quest.

    On top LHC Return scrolls which work from El Nath might be an idea. They could be added to the Exchange quest.

    Thanks for the thoughts!

    On the LHC return scrolls, while it is quite a nice idea (and incorporating it into the exchange is nice), at the moment I think the current traveling method is sufficient (TP rock or taxi > walk). There is the dead mine scroll which is similar, but significantly farther away.

    It could be, add a room at the entrance of the castle, just before crokys, just as you name, as well as!

    first portal = first tower and so on
