    Broken Echoes Silver Mine is a Tier 2 mine located in the South Paladis region. It's a working mine, run by Satyrs and Fauns.

    Here's some early screenshots:

    The play of lights is amazing. The textures are really beautiful. I wonder when we will have such refined rocks in the old mines ? ;)

    I just hope the concentration of satyrs and fauns are not as thick as the other scenes with them. Its nearly impossible to kill the satyrs and have the fauns actually run off, instead they get picked up by another satyr and you either have to kill them (suffering the virtue hit), flee, or die.

    Consider having the fauns doing the actual "mining" (via emotes), with the satyrs acting as overseers. Attack the overseers, and they might decide its worth more to let the fauns continue mining while they take care of the interlopers, rather than swarm you before you get close.

    We've been discussing how the fauns are now more powerful than the Satyrs and it disrupts the visual we want of a bunch of fauns around 1 satyr, and that with the skill revamps fauns can heal and mes and are therefore the big threat.... There's a few suggested changes, totally agree. I play-tested it many times and while it's a challenge at around ALVL 35 with skills in the 40's , it's not TOO hard i.m.o. Look forward to feedback in this area.
