Will underground nodes effect the above ground areas too?

Ok I get the fact on nodes changing the area around them, but what about the space above it? Case and point the underground nodes.

When the underground node levels, will we see changes to the areas above ground too? example being maybe a new sinkhole pops up, and now you can enter that area from a new location? Maybe a town that is above ground close by that node, will see good or bad effects from this underground node?

I have not seen much on this topic, so I was just wondering.

    No they will have their own ZOI.....unless there is going to be overlapping

    I was just wondering about this myself. Will underground nodes essentially block anything above it? Can you have a metro on top of an underground metro?

    Kind of like the sewers in Futurama.

    Right, Like if the above ground city is a level 6, will that imit the underground node too. Same if the Underground node was at the top level, will this stop the above ground?

    My hypothesis is underground nodes will be under mountains. Kind of like Ironforge in WoW.

    I hope so, I'm thinking like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season 3 Episode 10

    This evil cult from the First Evil, is underground, and the rituals they perform make all the trees above the ground they are die.

    Underrealm (underground) nodes and the nodes above them will be related but will not share the same ZOI (Intrepid quote).

    If above and under ground nodes could affect eachother directly it would be kind of bad ? I mean technically speaking if there was a node right under another node then you wouldn't need a siege, it would be a one sided invasion.

    Nah.

    Yeah, I don't think that's how it would work either.
