A few quick questions...

1. Why are there alot of Secret areas and rooms I find that are empty? Even after a server reset I have checked some of them to make sure they weren't already looted.
2. Shouldn't "Underdark: Beneath Tesh Mines" connect to the other parts of the Underdark? There is nothing down there but some Driders and Duegars. You also have to find the secret door.
3. Why is there a Nazi symbol in the Searing Sands? It is a perfect swastika in the overhead map.
4. Wouldn't it be hilarious to put Rust Monsters in these empty secret rooms to give yourself an evil giddy laugh of enjoyment when players are gravely dissapointed?

Swastika's don't automatically equate to nazi. It's a fairly common geometric figure found in many other cultures, none of which have anything to do with nazism. That being said... it was probably just how the map came out.

There's lots of empty rooms and areas around. Hopefully one day they'll all have something interesting in them. Give it time, The Amethyst Dragon

1. Most of the "secret" rooms should have something in them. It might be hidden. If you're finding an awful lot of them without anything in them, can you send me an email or PM detailing which ones you're finding empty constantly?

2. It will combine in time. The plan is for an underground river to connect them eventually. For now, think of the "underdark" as a generic term for "really far underground"...and not all underground areas are connected (just like cave systems in the real world).

3. The swastika has only been associated with the German Nazi party since the mid-1900s. If you do research on sun symbols from other cultures, it's one that turns up in several variations. Also, it makes for handy walls to run around when being chased by desert beasties.

4. Funny.
