Why isn't maggot lair ever terrorized?

Pls add it to Far Oasis?

It’s such a unique area. Annoying to navigate, some classes struggle a lot, but some shine; and those beetle packs are such amazing XP.

I’ve also wondered this, it’s an incredible farm spot for characters like bone spear necromancer and strafe Amazon.

And far oasis is pretty terrible by itself, but could be spiced up a bit by adding maggot lair.

It was initially one of the available TZs in the patch 2.5 PTR (the patch that introduced TZs), it didn’t last to 2.5 final due to negative feedback.

I agree with you though, it’s an interesting area that has a unique bias towards linear attacks/AoE, it’s also decent for melee since it works as a chokepoint for one on one battles. I’d like if it could be TZed once again, it’s one of the changes I did in my mod.

Honestly, terrorized zones should also be including the subzones that are present within them. That lends itself to giving the game more diversity and making terrorized zones less monotonous. Zones like Tamoe Highlands have decent elite density, yet only the subzone (the pit) itself is available as terrorized. The cherrypicked zones are good for farming, but sometimes it’s also nice to have surrounding or contained areas available too so something other than just the destination is able to be enjoyed.

Should never be terrorized at all since no zone should be terrorized as it’s a very watered down version of a better system that should have been implemented instead

builds that are good at maggot lair are all rather niche with piecing skills, bone, strafe zon and demon machine enchantress, the majority of the players ain’t going to have a good time farm down there so they understandably vote it out

Honestly if the game is TZ, you should just make the whole game TZ, then everyone could farm everywhere in P8 games.

It would bring some community together, some might have favorite areas, but people could then choose where they want to farm instead of being shoehorned into it.

You are inching closer to my “King of The Hell” concept
