Favorite Elite Area

After reading the fastest elite area times thread I figure most people must have an elite area they really enjoy or one they've really loved to beat over and over. I'm just wondering what some other people's favorite elite areas are and why that is. By elite areas I mean places like, Urgoz, FoW, UW, The Deep, DoA, Slaver's and even Sorrow's Furnace or ToPK. I realize some vanquishing zones are pretty challenging but I don't really consider them "elite" in the sense of a dungeon raid.

I would have to say Urgoz. The large numbers of monsters you need to kill to get to Urgoz himself make it one of the most fun areas to play through. Mind you, nobody does more elite areas than LOD; so when I say Urgoz is the most fun, I mean that in comparison to the rest of the elite areas.

I like them all. Except UW and that's more of a lack of experience.

I like the UW and The Deep. Because of the Scenery, the ectos and the aataxes =]

Of those I have done *all except Tombs, Urgoz, Deep* I like UW the most, but thats probably because I do that the least.

"Step into my parlour" said the spider to the fly...

UW is my favourit cos im fast at it and that results in the most lucrative.

The Deep is a fun change

Tombs is ok but.. eles dont get groups there.. and monking it is kinda boring
espicialy with ursan teams...

DoA is ok havent dome it in a while tho.

I would say UW, but last time I cleared it I was blind drunk, so I don't remember much.

No 1. The Deep
No 2. Urgoz
No 3. Probably DoA

The rest are fine but I prefer the above three the most. Although i have never tried Slaver's and Sorrow's Furnace

I don't like any elite area because I cannot go solo with full heroes/henchies.

FoW, because I can do it rather easily with just my heroes + some I borrowed from someone else.
And I like them hydras.

Dont have a favourite as such. I like to go through phases of doing 1 elite area a lot then changing to another elite area a week later or something. Rinse and repeat

FoW and Urgoz for me. FoW is relaxing and fun while Urgoz can be challenging if you're not prepared.

Actually you can go full H/H in Sorrow's Furnace, ToPK and the EOTN dungeons... now I realize those are a step below places like UW and DoA but the fact remains H/H is still possible there .

On that note I don't see why full H/H teams aren't allowed in all of these areas. If hench are supposed to be so bad people would wipe so badly that they wouldn't really be able to use hench anyways. Allowing H/H teams would actually allow more people into these areas, get them semi experienced or interested in the area and then they would hopefully then graduate into grouping with others. There would also always be those that would find using full H/H teams an interesting challenge.

I'm so sick of all of them...having farmed/pug'ed/guild grouped them all so much. I'm gonna have to say slavers is my favorite right now, because i haven't over-farmed it yet =)

i'm ready for a new elite area...Lyssa, Dwayna, and Melandru still have potential in ToA. Why only balthazar and grenth?

I like Urgoz the best....the large 12-man raids are just cool (Note: I have never done The Deep).
Next would be FoW, simply because it was the first for me to complete.

You should try The Deep. It just feels like there was more thought put into it than Urgoz.

Fissure of WoE. Interesting scenery and at least somewhat decent loot.
(Edit: WoE? Must have been thinking of WoW...)

Underworld would win HANDS DOWN for the scenery and the general idea behind it. But loot sucks hard and it takes too long. I also like the harder quests there, but if you fail, you get kicked out of the UW, and given the time it takes to complete it... this always makes me prefer the easier FoW runs.
