Ran a full group heroic elite Detour (16-19), saw nothing in the chests. Difficulty on par with House C elites - doable but not really zergable. Definitely easier than EE was at 25 cap.

There's a heroic wilderness too.

Nothing wrong with FR and adding some quests on lvl16, but why would you want new players to start at 15? It's better to start at lvl1 in all aspects. New players can be overwhelmed when they start at lvl15, you take away all the content from lvl1-15, that would keep them busy & interested (and paying). I'm not a fan of iconic heroes at all. *shrug* But probably the business people at Turbine are smarter than me. They also decided to put new players on Wayfinder *shrug* probably the best decision from a business standpoint.

I'd like to see more content available at epic levels.  I'd like new content vs. regurgitated content but, honestly, if it's faster, a mix of the two is fine.  Epic up some non-epic packs starting at the high end.  Epic Amrath!!!  With Epic Tower of Despair, of course.  That would be sweet.  Make those level 27 for flags and the raid level 28.  Give us Epic ToD Rings that have some seriously nasty set bonuses and keep the drop rates on the necklaces, belts, and rings the same as they are in current Amrath content.  (It's the perfect mix of grind and reward, imo.  Not too hard nor too easy). 

Also make the LoB flagging quests have epic versions.  Then go to Epic IQ, IQ2, and Reavers Reach.  Put them all in the 25-27 range on Norm to fill in the gap we have in XP earn.  Probably need to update Epic LoB and MA to be higher level to work with the epic version of flags.  And give Alchems a 4th tier at that level or a commendation upgrade process to make them viable at level 25+  It would give great epic weapon variety that is currently missing. 

After you fix the current clusterfuck that is loot right now to get all the loot on the same naming/prefixes and suffixes, ban any systems changes.  I'd be OK with scrapping the or delaying the Epic TR system for more content.  No one wants to walk to cap 28 multiple times with the current level of content.  Content first.  Then TR system.  Level cap 30 can also wait until you get some more content in place.  Nobody wants to grind another 3 million XP out of the current quest set.
