when IWD came out, it was really the only thing we had to do, other then running a odd dread legion lair.
At that time, I also got almost of my black ice running KR's .. and I remember they adjusted what you needed to get in at one point. My AD came via Leadership, there was no massive needs for RP , heck my first 5 toons all had epic artifacts, simply by either Blood crystal ravens or peridots, I remember dropping stacks of peridots into artifacts back them.. they were not used for anything else. The game was alot less complicated.
We now have weeklies, dailies, SH stuff, and we have to earn all of our own RP to a much higher extent then before, while also finding ways of making AD. ITs all too much. On top of it, the grind levels of previous campaigns have been alot more enjoyable and I havent complained about any of them since TOD, now they drop another on us, with about as much grinding.
So yes, even its not more time consuming as you put it, we have less time for anything like this.
This is part of the problem they fail to see, they set up a system that requires tons of grinding, including getting AD and RP , by putting such a boring and tedious grind-wall, without revamping or taking into consideration the other commitments we have to do now, is over the top.
The vblood should be at least 200 per daily quest. They should remove the gating. They should make the armor a bit more easier to get in FBI (get rid of the double rng factor) they should increase lanolin a bit more (1 out of every 4 at least hes should drop , not 1 out of 15 or 20)
This is what they should have done at the start.
But they are tried to monetize away the boring aspect instead, I do not reward , and no PLAYER really should reward or give money to a company to avoid boring content, its bad design all around for everyone.
So yes, Im still pissed off AS EVER with this, and just because they capitulated (for now) on the key changes, doesn't AT all make the rest of their recent mistakes fixed.
The one dude that was vehement about liking to do this stuff, was making a profit on selling lanolins about it..
which just goes to show you, how crappy it really is.
Mother loving HAMSTER artist, pushing this junk on us.
they should increase lanolin a bit more (1 out of every 4 at least hes should drop , not 1 out of 15 or 20)
I agree with everything you said @silverkelt. However, with lanolin I think they should have went the Unified Elements route and added it to a crafter, Leatherworking is the one I suggested. I can only handle so many HE's and dislike the fact that they seem so central to how we experience neverwinter.
Even at 1 out of 4 that is 500 HE's to upgrade the new gear (not including the new weapons headed our way). Does anyone really want to do 500 HE's.....????
I would rather level up a new leadership alt than do 500 HE's, just saying.

it keep giving me same daily "bonus" in coldrun instead of lonelywoods or BS. i tried in LW and only gave me CR daily quest.
It only does that a few times (3?), then goes back to one in each
All the progression is reputation-based: when you will be sent to the next zone, when the weeklies unlock, and what structure Defending the Dale takes.
Defending the Dale will not move past "do 3 quests in Cold Run" if you don't do anything at all to increase your rep. Even if you just tend the shrine and do the easiest CR dailies until you rack up a few sets of 3, it'll get there.
The whole black ice damage system was a mistake, and eventually the devs admitted that by removing it and the resistance requirement for Kessel's. I'm predicting the same thing will happen here sooner or later.
They've never admitted it, and they never will because their assessment of it indicates it wasn't a mistake or a failure at all. The removal of BI damage and resistance coincided with other changes to the game that also altered the gearing structure, and it didn't make sense to recreate all the BI stuff for level 70 when IWD was no longer an end-game focus.
Their statistics indicate that BI gear was successful based on how many players were using it regularly, but I strongly feel that they've grossly overestimated the overlap between the types of players who were using BI gear as their primary at 60, and players capable of or interested in running Fangbreaker now. BI gear was a go-to for solo and might-as-well-be-solo players. Most of it could be slowly ground out by yourself. It was far closer to Drowcraft insofar as the population niche it served, which I would estimate makes up a much larger proportion of NW players than they get credit for. There are a lot of things that are different between BI gear and Relic gear that indicate to me that BI gear had a far better implementation. Relic gear is basically counting on players chasing it because it has the best stats (if you keep it up). BI gear combined high gear score with high accessibility (of at least 2/3rds of the pieces); that's very different.
And it's also absolutely true that v-blod grind has been released into a game where there is already grind on top of grind on top of grind. IWD grind was pretty much the only game in town when it was fresh. HEs were even something new and different instead of done to death. Grinding black ice was acceptable back then because we weren't buried under the crushing weight of so many other must-keep-up activities. Being able to NOT do things in campaign areas you were done with was a blessing, as it allowed plenty of time for new activities and self-directed gameplay (running dungeons, farming in IWD, foundry, whatever). That freedom is no longer permitted because the old campaigns have been tied to endless demand for resources, while multiple new and incompatible demands have also been piled on. It really has only become ok for people who are capable of putting in the kind of time you'd dedicate to... a full-time job.

The grind to get into FBI seems designed for BIS toons who don't need much AD for upkeep. To everyone else, where to spend time is a choice between grinding for needed AD or grinding for SKT boons and FBI.
My main had unlocked FBI and match the requirement to entry fews weeks ago
But it still hadn't run FBI yet because its dam devote palladin, no one wants it for team

ps: i recommend everyone to see lia knowles fbi run she explain very well what each class needs to do. ty.
I don't run it because I do not meet the Frozen requirements yet. I do not meet the requirements because I refuse to invest hours into mindless dumb HE grinding. I also refuse to pay $$$ so I do not have to play the game (like invest hours into mindless dumb HE grinding). In addition to this the proposed loot does not motivate me at all to invest hours into mindless dumb HE grinding.
I run the support daily and one quest in every zone, and the weeklies.

"Why Is No One Running Fang Breaker"
I am fortunate enough to be able to play this game 12 hours a day if I so choose. I have held back a bit on a final analysis of this Module which contains Fang Breaker Island (FBI).
This is the worst Module I have ever experienced. It appears to be built around monetary gain for the company instead of fun for the players.
What you need to do to get your Relic gear, restore it and maintain it, is beyond stupid. Many people have bypassed this mod so the pool of people who will be available for FBI will be very low.
It also appears that we are getting even more of this nonsense in the next mini-module which may even be worse.

I have full r12s bondings/offense/defense on my cw, its only at 3.8.. I see no reason to advance it further honestly, since I am skipping the gear.
4k takes some utility , or some armor enhancement and stuff, that basically doesnt offer that much.
Frankly you can run it with less then that.. somewhere around 3.3-3.5 minimum is fine on dps if they have the r12 bondings set up.
the only thing I want is the rings for my DC.. and I do not feel at all like riding around in circles getting enough vblood to enter fbi.
So it pisses me off.
I just overall hate this mod with a passion.

ding ding ding.. this is exactly it.
There is little to no fun , outside of the dungeon.
Its very condescending over all.. here look we gave you the dungeon you wanted.. now pay pay pay pay pay pay us, lotsa money.

I tried many a time to go beyond the 2nd boon on SKT. I'll just completely skip and wait a few mods maybe. Run some dailies to stack up some ad and take it from there.
The suggested upkeep on Relic and the new weapons is just too much.
Dunno who came up with this design idea but he went way past OVER 9999 BAD.

i've been playing this game sense beta but i don't have a ton of time to play. i also hate the grind of anything save dungeons. so I've got 30 to 45 minutes a day to play. i've got 3 toons that I really enjoy playing. All three are in between 3 and 3.6k il. I really want to run the dungeon but don't have the time to grind out all the resistance I need to get in. so, i log in, run a few dungeons with guildies and maybe run a mission in the new zone and call it a night. saying that, i'm still starting to get close but i've still got a ways to go. i love this game.... but with so little fun new stuff to do it's getting harder and harder to log in.

The Sea of Moving Ice is set to make it easier to get enough EF resistance for Fangbreaker entry requirements (stronger potion and kits).

lol..
thanks right? how about the dozens of rng hours to get new weapons , that will be limited to 100 people.
There is no congrats from me, they are terrible designers right now, horrendous.
They deserve nothing but scorn at the moment, and I will not be civil about it. They are not civil with us, they treat us terribly bad. Horrendous, we should offer nothing but we have received until they give us something better.
Love FBI. Even if it was open to pugs a bit more than it is now I don't think they'd understand the mechanics...lol I mean the manicore going invisable is kinda annoying but I think they'll fix that sooner or later. ^.^ Yeah I will amit I don't like the chest inside a chest thing, but the IL req might actually need to be upped abit tbh. cx Ive seen people ask for it to be lowered but this dungeon is meant for end game, and I hope they'd keep it that way. I personally don't have an issue with the whole V blod, but I wouldn't mind seeing a change happen to it.

This is an MMO, not D&D. If it were D&D, you would get the IL 160 Weaponry from Fangbreaker to use in the Trial in the new Mod coming out November 8. If this were D&D you would get the Armor for Mod 12 in the Trial for Mod 11. IF this were to continue (where you get the equipment you need for the next Module in this Module) the game would be better off.
The Devs could do this and they could plan for the impact of the new equipment in the next Module. And, you know what, people would actually play Fangbreaker to get the IL 160 weapons. It can be done.
Those who say "It can't be done" are reminded of an old family saying, "I. . . CAN'T. . . MEANS. . .YOU. . . DON'T. . .WANT. . .TO" and yes I did mean to shout.
I have created a Custom Channel called SKT3k.. (already have more than 200 members) it's for ALL SKT content ONLY. We do FBI pretty regular and heroic Encounters. I've found that most people are afraid to be mocked or rediculed or to not finish FBI after 2 hours or something. We finish FBI relatively easily.
The IL req for the channel is 3k IL.. but we are not elitist. 3k is only 200 IL higher than will be needed for SVA (Normal).
If you are interested in joining the channel and at least one of your toons is 3k IL, please send mye a mail in game or a /tell in game for an invite.
SKT content is NOT difficult.. if you know what you are doing and prepare yourself properly to do it. And work with competent people that aren't abusive, lazy, or elitist. Any AFKers or Rage Quitters will be removed from the channel... same with those who trash talk people.

i am definitely interested in this. it looks like only chance for me get my hand on legendary marks ever.
As being at half dead guild, with "lazy" players not really interested at running this dungeon again. After many spamming finally get there, but two players leave after first wipe on turtle, i was starting to acquiesce that i have no chance. This is probably only way for not big guilded players now

here is my way of farming voninblood, buy an epic trowel, and u can go to certain called "exploit" blog and see the map pic of spawning spot in Bryn Shander, those spawning sometimes are not certain, but is the only way to get enough voninblood, epic trowel increase the chance to drop and epic ostorian relic, if they nerf these ostorian relics spawn time on this map then byebye new campaign, people buy epic trowels to farm this map, farming nods doesnt seem to be an "exploit" to me otherwise, why would they put them there in the first place? decoration?. i hope this post seems legit this time. ty

Attitude is everything... in life and game... even in the worst situations the only hope is to have a good attitude and solve problems instead of just being all negative. It's much easier to do so with other optimistic people that are committed to solving the problem. THIS is why our channel and runs are such a success.

Regardless of what many people think.. my goal in this game is having HEALTHY relationships with people and helping them help themselves. I built a guild around that.. now I am building a channel to help beat the most challenging content in game. That's all certainly more important that Easy Moding trivial content. .

Its not the dungeons I ever complained about, its the gating and the boring grind.
however, I really dont want to get into that..
I will ask a serious question to you instead @weaver936 , shouldn't your channel be at least 3.1k ? since 3k cant actually enter fbi?

The Devs could do this and they could plan for the impact of the new equipment in the next Module. And, you know what, people would actually play Fangbreaker to get the IL 160 weapons. It can be done.
Those who say "It can't be done" are reminded of an old family saying, "I. . . CAN'T. . . MEANS. . .YOU. . . DON'T. . .WANT. . .TO" and yes I did mean to shout.
The IL req for the channel is 3k IL.. but we are not elitist. 3k is only 200 IL higher than will be needed for SVA (Normal).
If you are interested in joining the channel and at least one of your toons is 3k IL, please send mye a mail in game or a /tell in game for an invite.
SKT content is NOT difficult.. if you know what you are doing and prepare yourself properly to do it. And work with competent people that aren't abusive, lazy, or elitist. Any AFKers or Rage Quitters will be removed from the channel... same with those who trash talk people.
Contact me at @weaver936 if you want to experience SKT content with helpful and knowledgable people.

As being at half dead guild, with "lazy" players not really interested at running this dungeon again. After many spamming finally get there, but two players leave after first wipe on turtle, i was starting to acquiesce that i have no chance. This is probably only way for not big guilded players now

Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, Life is but a dream.
however, I really dont want to get into that..
I will ask a serious question to you instead @weaver936 , shouldn't your channel be at least 3.1k ? since 3k cant actually enter fbi?
The channel si meant to be a One Stop Shop for all things Storm King's Thunder...
