Lake Rathe Gnoll Camp

[maegi]

My wife and I have hunted here on several of our previous characters. Was always a nice spot with gnolls ranging in levels from 8ish to 16 embalmers with necro pets. If they had weapons, they were always bronze, so it was a good spot to camp spell money from level 8 to 16 or even 20 if you're very patient. You had the South Karana zone line to flee too when things got hairy and could be bound in the arena. So all in all a nice place to go to level and escape the more camped areas.

However....I am unsure when this change happened...but now the gnolls are no longer gnolls, and nothing there is level 8ish any longer. There are now greater zombies, high level skeletons and gnoll Exhumers? with pets. Basically it was revamped to a higher level hunting spot with completely different mobs? I never saw any patch notes or any notification of this change happening? Did I just miss it somehow? I though i was crazy when I first looked over there on my 12 pally last night passing through and everything was RED. I was like wow WTF happened here?


P.S. Are there any other big changes like this we shoudl be aware of that didn't get announced? Just curious.
