Thoughts on luclin?

[Nydosa]

I posted this is another forum, but I still think that making the world feel more round would be an awesome change.

What if Luclin were an island between Odus and Faydwer? I always found it a little silly that there was no trade route in that direction, whether it be another continent or just an ocean.

1) Beastlords could certainly be balanced to be more old-world (Pets default to low level on zoning, and beef-up with buff. Also, no haste spell at 60!)
2) Luclin-zones would need a lot of terrible models removed (ones that animate worse than a fish out of water)
3) Odus really needs some love as a continent, and it could be a great way to add more content over there.
4) NO Vah-Shir, but Kerrans are a very underutilized civilization that could replace them throughout Luclin.
5) No teleporting, bazaar, and removal of Norrath in the sky would all be required as well

I wonder how hard it would be to even replace some of the Luclin zone textures with old-world textures... might look terrible, but maybe I'll mess with it. Not even sure that'd fly here, but at least some new content to look forward to!
