    ACG buildings? whats an ACG Building?

    From 15.9 patch notes

    NPCs in ACG buildings in Shadowlands now give an XP bonus.

    Does this mean all indoor playfields or something else? i've wracked my brain and cant think what ACG means, tho its probably something incredibly obvious :-p

    ACG is all the indoor areas in Shadowlands that are not the temples. i.e. the dungeons with the arul saba gem bosses.

    Wow! thx for the quick response :-)

    So, i am assuming that will cover the new instanced missions but not the catacombs where Tier armor parts are farmed? Kinda a shame, i was looking forward to SK teams in inferno catacombs, but i guess that would make the tier armor farming near impossible for anyone not sk'ing

    Yes, it will cover the new quests, but no, I don't believe it covers the catacombs, I'll try and check on that one. It definately doesn't cover the temples themselves, but I'll check on the catacombs below.

    ACG - automatic content generation

    non-ACG = stuff like nelebs, temple, camelot, outdoor zones etc.
    ACG = missions, SL dungeons

    The SL dungeons that have the arul-saba gem bosses are ACG even though they are of static layout as the ACG system was used to create them initially but then they were "frozen" (I'd imagine the ACG system uses a generation system running from a random seed number and that the seed for a given dungeon is what is "frozen"). There are static mission-like areas on Rubi-Ka too that use this same technique.

    [Social] Means: I don't think we removed any bosses because of bad pathing...there wouldnt be any left if we did :P

    I'd like that in cata's. It would give another option. Options are good.

    I mean, honestly, who goes into the inf cata's? :P
