Is there anything anywhere that hints at elite missions being in Nightfall (i.e. The Deep/Urgoz/SF).
I assume there will be, but has there been anything released to the press or posted on a site somewhere?

There is no alliance faction or town control in Nightfall (to the best of my knowledge), so there won't be any arbitrarily restricted areas. However, I do hope that they will have difficult areas such as the Underworld. I don't believe there has been any official word either way.

It was confirmed in the November issue of PC Gamer that Nightfall will have 1 elite mission. Characters will be granted access once they reach a certain point in the game, so the only condition that needs to be met is getting your arse there.

where you least expect

the quote from pc gamer:

"The campaign will also include three new Challenge missions and one new Elite mission. Elite missions will be easier to access in Nigthtfall, no longer requiring you to be a member of an alliance that holds a town in the world. Instead, you'll be permitted entry as soon as you reach an as-yet unspecified point in the game."

like kais said, you just need to get your arse there.

I really think a game's final mission should be a shortened Elite Mission. It would be more epic that way. The final "Shiro" battle is just a little underwhelming in terms of the epic feel.

Or at least a mission like Vizunnah Square with 16 players!

Echoing both Kais and Dragasa, there will be a Elite mission in NF that isnt restricted by the town control mechnaism as in Factions.

I wonder though if you can bring your heros in there with you and the size of the party for that Elite mission.

Glad to hear (read rather) that the elite mission won't have restrictions like the ones in Factions. If the requirements to get into the elite mission are to complete quests and/or previous missions, then I'm all for it.
