Wussaq Dungeon

Hunters Log: The Wiqqan people knew the power of the Morgaryll Crystals long before the shards fell from the crystal moon. They learned to harness it in many ways, including manipulating its energy to keep evils out of the world.



The Wyvern,

The Wraith,

The Wairua

The Widow

and of course Witches


Have all been held in this dungeon for so long or so the story goes.

We were called to investigate some loud noises coming from underneath the sands of Wussaq. When we arrived, we found an old lift leading underground. Probably shouldn't have used it, now we are stuck with those same evils from long ago. Turns out the cackling crones dug their way out and blew the main generator. Two monsters are free. The rest are still holding up.

Map Features:

The map takes advantage of design over size. Instead of making a small or medium map, an attempt to compress the space for skills to work allowed for a map that is meant to be circumnavigated in less than 30 seconds. With the circular shape, it is possible for few characters to locate witches with any skill. The Panopticon design was intended to give more power to the hunters than witches in smaller maps. PowerBalls can easily round the map quickly, Hooks can reach different vantage points, Magic Guard can be used at certain choke points, Vacuums can locate within distinct location clusters distinguishable between the themes of all the prisoners.

Witches, however are not without help. There are various switches through out the map place with the intention of giving witches a sense of where hunters are relative to the location. The prisoners, cannons and lights are attached to switches that allow witches to know where hunters are. Props and switches are strategically placed to allow for skill based approach to game, preventing a phenomenon where witches prefer a stagnant play style.



Props: 633 (534 that are not cosmetic)
Structures: 1992
Secret Props: 4 (Puzzle behind one of the props; switch located behind one of the power beams activates a hunter only roof door containing a secret prop that drops in front of the hunter entrance)
