Here's the suggestion I've been making for ages... All paragons get 1 Defence, 1 Offence, 1 Utility as standard. DPS Paragons get +1 Offence, Tank and Healer Paragons get +1 Defence. Everyone also gets 1 Universal where any of the three can be slotted. That way there is still some controlled structure and no one can drop…

Shared Account Wide Professions Resources Banks. Larger one for "Materials" items, Smaller one for "Toolbox" items. Unless you're feeling generous and decide to make them both decent sized. I envision it more as a means to store commonly shared resources and transfer specific items between characters, rather than a huge…

Yeah, if this is what "Horizontal Progression" is all about... then "meh". Just keep telling yourself, "At least it's not fishing... At least it's not fishing... At least it's not fishing... At least it's not Voninblood... At least it's not Voninblood... At least it's not Voninblood..." It might be down to Chris not having…

They've as much as said that at least one of the "Big surprises" is going to be a new class or classes. Personally, (and I have no doubt I will be a million miles wide of the mark, cos I always am on stuff like this...) I would LOVE them to do a Module based around the Moonshae Isles (which is where a great deal of my old…

Couldn't agree more. There are many reasons I'm happy to never see cross platform play, but right there at the top of the list is the economy. Particularly the ADX exchange system. Aside fro that, they would need to overcome the problems with MS and Sony and the difficulty in releasing new content across all three…

Making it unique wouldn't mean that instead of a chicken you get nothing. It would mean that something else from the relevant loot table would drop in it's place instead. So more chance of getting the things you want to drop. If I'm opening 20 of those bags, and already have the chicken, I'd far rather have 20 chances at…

Microsoft say the next gen XBox will feature full backward compatibility for XBox One games, if that helps?
-
Just copy and paste a line of code and make them unique. So while you have one in your inventory it won't drop again. Like how the new Transmutes work...
-
Yeah... while I'm not exactly living in fear that you are about to break my console it would be nice if I could drop into Avernus and it work first time occasionally. Lag is worse than it's been for absolutely ages, and all I'm trying to do is gain the daily 20% needed to advance the (for want of a better word) "quest".…

This is it. There's always going to be stuff that doesn't fit with your ideal image of the game, and for the most part those things form only a small part of the experience. People playing "air guitar" makes me roll my eyes, but they're having fun and I don't have to do it. (But it does HAMSTER me off that I default into…

Long before WoTC started cracking down on "Lore" D&D, and Forgotten Realms in particular, existed so that creative Dungeon Masters could use their own imagination and build their own worlds, (The 1st Ed DMG is far bigger than the PHB because it devotes a lot of effort into that very subject) and FR provided a simple…

Forget Chult, dinosaurs were a staple of the 1st edition Monster Manual, back in the 1970s. There was also stuff like (the very official TSR module) "Expedition to The Barrier Peaks" (late 70s early 80s) where wizards and elves were running round Greyhawk shooting laser rifles at each other after investigating a crashed…

The Tokens of Brimstone are certainly not useless. Given how the very useful R4 Marks of Potency are normally fairly expensive and unavailable on the Sybella store, those Brimstone Tokens can be very useful. Unbound or Bound those things are always worth having a healthy stock of.
-
I could be wrong, but I think you start getting the Token of Flames at Week 3, and the week 2 bonus rounds give a second Token of Brimstone. I'm basing that on the fact that I missed a day or two toward the end of the first Hell Pit, after completing all the others, and have 6 Tokens of Flame carried over from that. (And…

It's a great event, and knocks Acquisitions Inc into a cocked hat in terms of how a light hearted, goofy, event can work well. Even though I don't really need anything from it, (though a Beholder Tank would be nice...) I do find myself going back into it when it comes round, just because it's a lot of fun. Particularly for…

Question regarding Professions and Masterwork. This has been an ongoing issue for a while and I understand some changes are in the pipeline. One thing that I'm a little concerned about is that I came across a reply from one of the dev team that suggested that the "Fix" for Master work will come in the form of another tier…

I've been running my Tank OP on Trials the past three weeks or so, (just to get a quick load) and the amount of times over about 15 EDemo runs in that time where a healer has stayed anywhere near me I could count on the fingers of... ONE HAMSTER FINGER!!! Then today... I queue with my Rogue... and there are two healers…

It's also good if they strategise what events come in what order, and then make sure they stick to it. It's only useful to have the calendar updated, IF the calendar doesn't then subsequently change at the last minute. Double Shards straight after Siege is not great. 2 weeks Guild Grind shouldn't be followed by another…
-
For crying out loud... Can someone at cryptic please explain why this needs to happen? Why do some characters get a full reset, and others don't? And when you've done explaining that can you explain why we don't get an extra re-roll token for the inevitable "Oh HAMSTER, that Feat should have been on my other load out..."…

The map is probably the best thing about the Siege. But they already do something similar to what you suggest with the Jubilee version of the Call To Arms style skirmish. Various waves of bad guys invade Protectors Enclave, and everyone runs round and quickly kills them. It might not be a bad idea to introduce a repeatable…
-
Duration: About right. Enjoy the most? Nothing really... it's a slightly different grind to the current campaign that gives potentially useful vouchers if you are lucky. I suppose the map is kind of nice. Enjoy the least? Rewards. Spending ages getting too few voucher drops, waiting for ages to get the 2 HEs for the daily…

It's a pretty big sample size if every time you do it, you encounter HAMSTER holes. I'm similar in how my PvP has gone. There's no way on Earth I'm sticking around 20 or 30 times to see if the numbers eventually balance out, if the first 15 to 20 were an abominable experience. I don't know about PvP in other games. I don't…
-
Two last points from me 1. Clear time lines are also important. Having a "We'll keep it open till it looks like we're just about done then announce a 1 or 2 day last chance" can leave people thinking "Damn, it shut yesterday..." when they were about to follow up or post an idea. I might be alone in this and just being…

Let me pre empt this by saying that I have never had a good experience playing the PvP variant of this game. Back when I first started playing and got to just below L60 I decided to give it a go. It was not so much the lack of fun at having a couple of PvP demi gods waiting beneath the spawn point to slaughter me the…

The only problem with this is that by formatting the CDP this way it becomes a "Problem Solving" forum rather than an open forum for creativity and new ideas. I guarantee that if someone had an idea that wasn't solving a "problem" but was either a brand new idea or even simply an improvement on an area that already works,…
-
Is it paradoxical that if this CDP's format works, then surely the best format is this one? As long as what you write is clear, relevant, and at the very least rooted in reality, does it matter what headings you use? You could waffle for a few paragraphs, and put your actions in bullet points and not require 4 or 6 or 8…

I'm not sure if this qualifies as a "bug" or just an annoying "feature" that could use a workaround. Running the quest: "Restore The Broken Wood Glyphs" Got the ten widgets, found the trap door, went down the tunnels, killed the big bad, fiddled with the thingy, fled the tunnels and have the quest tree line. "Use The Glyph…

Any luck with yesterday's patch?
-
Yep. If the threads are being checked and moderated regularly then it should be fairly manageable to keep the discussions alive here on the official forums. I think the key to that is in the initial Topic Choices and keeping them focused. Obviously people have LOADS of things they want to discuss via the CDP, and the…
