When you think of the new zones you can't really think of what'd be cool but would make HEREOS of abyssea really challenging. Small cramped zones don't seem like they'd be condusive to any NM battles. Honestly, would you want to kite something in a small little corridor in castle o?

My guesses.

Uleguerand Range(or Beaucedine Glacier)

Grauberg

Fort Karugo-Narugo

They're all vast areas with all types of terrain. You could easily fit the amount of mobs that usually go into abyssea plus empty space to fight the epic battles.

Theres a mathematic on the on where the Abyssea zones are. 1st Add-on were on Crag Locations, 2nd were on two zones besides Crag
(La Theine Plateau - Jugner Forest - Vunkler Inlet)
(Konschtat Highlands - Valkrum Dunes - Miseraux Coast)
(Tahrongi Canyon - Bibiki Bay - Attowah Chasm)

I know that Bibiki is not connected to Attowah, but its still one zone in the middle if you go by Maze of Shakrami.

Maybe by going with this algorithm we can guess next zone.

I think u dun gone fugged up here....

Abyssea - Attohwa entrance is in Buburimu Peninsula, not Bibiki Bay, therefore all 3 scars zones are beside a crag zone and if you look at Abyssea - Misareaux according to the maw position, you miss out lufaise meadows.

I would like to see new zones entirely.

Abyssea - Sol Lunaria, Abyssea - Atrum Lunaria.

The zones would be the light, and dark sides of the moon. One for body seals and one for hand seals. It would make since with all the references to the moon in Abyssea. Lunar Abyssites, Limules, Amoebans, the moon being closer to the camera in Abyssea zones etc.

The moon abyssea zones would glow as the current day element color and be either dark or light depending on which zone you're in.

I know this won't happen and I'm only going to be disappointed with whatever SE does but here's hoping!

Abyssea Dynamis / Abyssea Limbus / Abyssea Einherjar:
Yo i heard you like events, so we put an event into your event, so you can play while you play!


Now you can have a choice: Dynamis, einherjar and limbus, OR ABYSSEA! what a joy :)

The moon has always changed colour, it's not Abyssea-related.

I typed that incorrectly, I was referring to what the zones would look like if you're on the moon.

Oh, well I don't normally agree with people but that would actually be quite cool to see.
Too bad SE is blind to anything that isn't the easiest way of whoring even more money.

Yeah with all the references to the moon/light in the Abyssea lore it would make sense but I doubt we'll see anything other than some old zones repainted Christmas green and red and 20 mob families thrown in there with 2-3 new mob types thrown in there. We shall see though. I'd also would accept Sky/Sea re-done.

So from the Heroes of Abyssea website, looks like:

Abyssea - Glacier/Xarcabard


Abyssea - ??? (Edit: Grauberg?)


Abyssea - Altepa



Can't really tell what the second one is.

Abyssea --

Grauberg

Western Altepa Desert

and I'm hoping for Ulgerand Range. I don't believe it's Beaucedine because Beaucedine is a series of stepped tiers, and in that image I don't see an upper tier to walk on.

I don't think its Xarc because it's tiny compared to the rest of the abyssea zones, and we've yet to have a zone that abuts a fortress. but it is the last expansion so anything is possible I guess.

i still think it should be the main cities. Nothing would quilify as 'Heros' more then resquing the falling nations of the world.

As for likly places in the pictures of altep and budicine glacier.. how does that quailfy as heros? No one lived in either of them for ages

First one looks like uleg rather then xarc/beauc, I think i recongnize that exact scenery from running smn up there to solo back in the day, they also havnt used a zone more then twice so far (baring dynamis).

Second one my moneys on grauberg... if you look behind the drg you can see a bit of what looks like one of those pixie ponds where you trade the bottled pixies.

Third altep for sure who doesnt know that rock in the background and it's beetles.

Citys are actually already rubble in there timeline so it would be cool but for a add on I cant immagine them redesigning a zone compleatly... even for WotG they just added some static objects here and there and took a few out when it came to the citys.

I can't help but think that SE has big plans for this. Two Armor Zones and maybe a boss zone.
Also two more pieces from caturaá¹…ga that leave places for two more Caturae mobs.

It's definitely Grauberg, as the dirt texture and tree combination are unique to that zone, and you can see a pixie pond.

It's definitely West Altepa, because you can see the big rock/mountain thing.

And it's definitely Uleguerand Range, because, even though this pic isn't lined up perfectly (Jormy agro'd before I was quite ready), you can see that the terrain matches exactly.

Yeh looks kinda like the tunnel leading to BD. However Blazza's pic is the spitting image of Ule Range. So will probably be that.

I wonder if they will make some kind of "uber" zone for beating all 9 abyssea bosses.

Like a new endgame farming zone.. not that abyssea isn't endgame... just feels to easy most of the time >_>

They will add them in the zones, like with the other abyssea zones.

Well after reading the story section on the page, it does mention the harsh borderlands with trying land conditions. That description plus the pics almost verify Uli Range, Western Desert (would be slick if they meshed East and West together for one giant zone), and 99.99% Grauberg (though it never seemed to have any "threatening landscapes).

On a side note...the body pieces for Emp gear look hot...

You sure it was a maw, and not a Veridical Conflux? <_< Cuz there is a conflux at that position, and it's for a WotG mission...
