Off Map Areas and Treasure Hunts
Add discoverable portals to the existing map which can be interacted with by anyone to travel to new off-map areas and to dig-up treasure discovered via treasure maps.
- Similar to the Diablo series, where you find cave entrances, tombs, building entrances and portals etc. these can be used to travel to other areas off the main map.
- This allows the devs to add additional content to the game without having to extend the current map every time.
- Add treasure maps as loot which can be decoded, tracked and dug up / fight monsters or mobs defending the treasure. Can be linked in with the portals mentioned above to either lead to a chest or another area to enter and find loot.
- These new areas could be simple 1-2 screen sized areas or much larger mini-dungeon style areas and the pool of these locations can be added to over time for variety and some randomness.
The spider boss area build up and fight was great, more mini dungeon style areas like this with this system please! :)

zeroTAGSince it's random entrances on the main world, could also be interesting to add to this, the Albion idea of invading (on PvP servers) these mini-dungeons, and battle for said loot.

VampireAddams+1 Very similar to mine
The game randomly generates ruins and resource nodes already. My suggestion, to add more exploration and repeatable content, is to allow shared (PvP or Clan mates) or instanced (PvE) mini-dungeons (or huge!) that are spawned as entrances in the fixed world map.
These could be cave/lair entrances on hillsides, crypt doors among ruins (filled with horrors, traps and ancient vampire treasures!) and maybe even more intact Vampire Castles that have long been abandoned to explore (also filled with horrors, traps and ancient vampire treasures!) and potentially refurbish into a new home.
Treasures you say? Maybe these could be protected by a deadly guardian to justify juicy rewards for the cunning Vampire
-Rare cosmetics/skins for Vampires and their minions (You should look up my other post on npc minions*)
-Tomes for new/rare Spells
-Tomes for Castle Cosmetics
-New Forms & Skins for your Forms
-Weapons & Armour, rare/unique etc.
-Tomes to learn new Undead to summon*
