With direct feeds from SoE, why is there still no actual info for the new zones added in GU52? You cannot even find the zones in the zone search. The site does not even know who drops the "Najena's Ring of Readiness"...

So really .. is this site nothing more than a pipe dream ? .. It's existence has seemed to kill lootDB's accuracy as well since not as many people seem willing to contribute to it because Zam is getting direct feeds.

As mentioned at our panel at Fan Faire, our devs are still working with SOE to tweak the system. Illia said they're working on the 3rd iteration of data from SOE and so far it's looking good. I do believe he said there are over 300,000 files involved, it's being a heckuva process. I'd tell you about the technical aspects, but when Illia starts explaining it to me he goes into deep programmer speak and my eyes kinda glaze over.

So yes, our database is behind (and trust me, our devs are well aware of it). Please be patient, they're working very hard on it. Meanwhile, we *are* keeping the wiki as up to date as possible and you're welcome to contribute to that effort.

We really appreciate your patience and loyalty while we work the kinks out. It's gonna rock when it all comes together.
