I've seen it all ... EXCEPT Hell. That was a DM event so I don't think just anyone can get there Places I still haven't completed are: Zeipheran Cloud Giant Stronghold Stonelands tower Arabel Crypts Icingdwell (can't remember the name exactly) done them all except for the stoneland tower. But i have a feeling it will take a couple of lvl 30s for that place. Its savage. I've made it to the second level, then died. Way to many traps

Rumor has it that one party did . . . long time ago.
But, Icingdwell . . . ahh now, that one, I know of a particularly awesome party who has done it ;D
All new attempts don't count, coz I've since tweaked it.

True... no one has completed the Stonelands tower. Seen it, sure. Silly druid. The Stonelands tower was completed during the Silveryn quests, I believe. The only players that are still around that completed that quest I think are Sharita, Jerico and Vind. Any you three want to chime in? Actually I was around but had to leave the quest early as I had a date with my wife that night.

The question is, though, was that before or after the server went to Hardcore difficulty? If it was before the server went to Harcore difficulty, does it count?
On normal difficulty, monsters don't get critical hits, potions always heal their max amount, and some AoOs don't occur (at least the one for using a bow in melee with Point Blank Shot, not sure about others).

No it was created before the server was on hardcore. However, I do believe it still counts because, back then, monsters were created based off of the idea that players would have 5/+3 and 5/- damage resistance and reduction permanently as well as many other powerful items. Those monsters, these days, will tear through a party because they are so powerful. So i believe despite the server not being on hardcore, it was still a challenge . Spawn the end boss of the tower some time and you'll see what I am talking about

Yes, Sharita has seen all those places, even Hell.
When we did the Silveryn quest, what you find there now, was pretty much what we faced there too. However, they have gotten much tougher since...but this may be due to her much higher level now (27).
Icingdwell, the Stonelands Tower (revised version) and Zepherian (The Windwalker quest) are the only places Sharita has never completely finished.
(We came close to finishing Icingdwell back in the day with Matinus, Jerico, Hierich, Cormac, Tristar and Sharita...but a server crash ended our attempt. Same for our attempt of the Zephierian quest.)

yea I was with the gang that beat the Stonelands Tower in the Silveryn quest, but it doesnt really count (to me at least)
cause all the bad guys that were in there were DM controlled/spawned. I mean those main bad guys were still there, but it was different. and the top was different too, there was a plot revolvint bad guy up there rather than the current mean dude.
Having said that, I have a group in mind that can beat the Stonelands TOwer, we have tried efore, but I finally got it figured out, so get ready to be in the record books guys! MUHAHAHAH!

As a point of order the Stonelands Tower that was part of the Silveryn quest is nothing like the current tower. The quest were DM spawned baddies only and the new (static) Stonelands Tower was created by yours truly and yeah, it's hella-difficult. Also, most every creature that was adjusted up before has been readjusted since we went to hardcore. Some creatures will still need certain combinations of spells for players to be able to damage them, but almost all should be within reason for the level they are intended. Don't forget there are over 600 areas on FRC and chances are nobody has seen all of them.
