*7. Experience the area. Tie things together. Most (all of the newer) *areas have a storyline to them that the room descriptions, mobs and *gear contribute to. One reason folks might miss things while exploring *is because they are so engrossed in the 'mechanical' aspect of *exploring (see the above) that they don't put all the pieces together *to figure out that the secret treasure is actually buried in the *garden! I find I have a much easier time wringing the secrets out of an *area if I experience it while exploring it.

Just wanted to say of all the areas I have ever explored on CF and that is many, many areas. Except ST and I will someday. Loch Grynmear was by far the most fun I have ever had. You need to write another area man, I was so engrossed in that area that I wasted(well not really ) 3 hours of my life and I fully intend to go back and finish exploring that area since I was a bit young and couldn't finish it. If more people would make kick ass lower-level exploration areas like that this mud would be as close to heaven as one could come to explore. A lot of the older areas and some newer lack the kind of descriptive quality and neat and kick ass quirks that the Loch has. So I ask, write us a new area damnit.
