well in case this helps anyone else, Deadmano on the neverwinter discord explained it to me: the quest Claim Masquerade reward meant that I had an existing Consolation bag in my inventory (I must have had one from a previous year). I did a search for "masq" in my inventory and had to open that one (receiving the 200…
ok then I was definitely on the losing team, but I never received any 'consolation' package for 200 Masquerade Tokens. in my quest journal, I see the following, what does it mean? what does it mean to Open any existing Masquerade prizes?
oh I am re-reading the initial answer to this question, and now I realize that mintmark was saying that we are currently into the height of summer and are getting double petals. I interpreted what mintmark said as we will be getting the height of summer after the calendar event ends on thursday with no formal announcement.…
omg wow, I did not realize that the height of summer was built INTO the event on the calendar schedule as the last week. I must have missed the announcement. I also did not realize that if you continue the previous summer provisioning gathering flowers that it continues to only yield 5. ugh. but at least now I know the…
thanks! I never know if something has changed in the event. I wish they were more clear about things like this for the events, and for the last chance vendor time period on events.
thanks both of you for the info. (I was just buying some companions on auction - a lot of companions seem to be really cheap right now) and was a bit worried that it would lock me out if I ever had the opportunity to get a higher quality so that instead I would have to use companion upgrade tokens (I remember reading a…
it is pretty terrible in that it is very disorienting. when using it at a horizontal level it is fine, but when you are facing downward towards a mob at a lower level, it shoots upwards towards the sky. well at least I know I am not crazy... I was trying to take a screenshot to post here, but I could not find my…
I did find something interesting about this issue - on this old computer that has never had that static popping noise issue, I discovered that using a wireless headset I am getting the static pop - I started noticing it because I was accessing the remote crafting interface (for summer provisioning) in the Summer Festival…
ok thanks - did not realize I could abandon quest and pick it up again. or rather I was thinking about doing that one time, but did not want to risk being on timer until the next day.
ugh I spoke too soon. on a whim, I tried entering Prophecy of Madness skirmish again today and was getting the static popping intermittent noises again. that is what I get for jumping to the conclusion that it was fixed by that PCI Express / Link State Power Management solution after just running one skirmish. there were a…
from that reddit thread that you posted, I tried one of the solutions and it actually seems to have worked for me to clear the static popping noise. I would be curious to hear from others if this also solves it: I tried running (solo) the Prophecy of Madness where I always would get the static popping, and sure enough, I…
thanks for that reddit thread link - oddly I do not think I saw this thread. yeah, the newer computer was originally on windows 10, but it auto-updated to windows 11 (I know there are ways to prevent this, but I made the decision to let it go, since the computer met the requirements but it did come as a surprise, it just…
I am just surprised there is no straightforward solution for this (or at least anymore). in the end, I ended up switching back to an older windows 10 computer, and I do not get the static popping noise. I will take a look again on the newer computer (windows 11) and see if any of the ideas above helped, but I am not very…
I was curious - for a while back in June, the Neverwinter ARC forums appeared back to normal. but recently, the forum headers look distorted to me - I am not sure if it is some browser or o/s setting. the avatar symbols are stretched out. I feel like they used to be circles.
thanks! I did not realize they rotate the companions in the zen store. I thought they had always sold blue or gold quality companions in the zen store.
oh wow. I thought that it was a choice of what you wanted from the list. I was actually going to post a question on forums asking what would be the best one to choose, but now that I know that it is random, I will just open it. (I do not own any of them) but out of curiosity, are any of the mounts better than the others? I…
ugh, I do not remember what /bind syntax I used. all I remember is that I was a bit annoyed that whenever I tried to interact with an object target using the "F" key, if any other player was standing near me, I would get the interact menu for that character. but yeah, I think at the time when I was using the grappling…
the problem with them doing that is that some players may have though this whole time throughout the jubilee that it is account-wide, and therefore focused all their attention to earning the renown on a single character. now that it has been clarified that it is single character, they might not have time to try to earn it…
Hi Jana, at the time I was never able to figure out how to assign the grappling hook a new keybind (the grappling button appears as a button above the potions tray using default "F" interact key). For me at the time, the grappling hook button did not display a shortcut key, but that is because I had applied a customization…
ugh, I guess I did it the wrong way then - I just bought some standard motes from auction, and then went through a ton of preservation wards to upgrade a rank 1 companion enchantment to rank 5. the first upgrade (from rank 1 to rank 2) took about 140 failures, so that was very frustrating and I was cursing my bad luck, but…
thanks for the additional advice (I really appreciate the thorough reply) just had a question -- what is the general way that people would refine (upgrade) an enchantment? do people generally get a primitive mote (1%), and burn through preservation wards? I think my understanding is that each round attempt uses up 3x…
thanks for the advice. I think I have a better idea what to focus on. I did run a character through the Acquisitions Incorporated adventure storyline, and (in case anyone is wondering) the rank 1 combat enchantment choice pack is awarded after finishing the quest temple intrusion. so I got another (btc) soul shield…
oh I misread the item description for adorable pocket pet; now I understand that it only has a chance to decrease threat that is a shame, I will still look into getting it, but not sure it will be that helpful if it only has something like a 1 in 4 chance of helping me when I have mob aggro. from my understanding, this…
thanks for the additional information! yes, I have slotted marauder's escape and I am trying to get used to using it. I will definitely try that tactic of pulling mobs to the tank and ME away. sometimes though the tank in the group is not very survivable and/or does not draw aggro from the mobs. I will check to see if I…
thanks for mentioning the hellfire armor, it is not what i was exactly hoping for, but actually it is very cool looking in itself. I would like to get it on some characters, but it is very expensive on the auction house.
some part of the forum aesthetic seems to be back - i am not sure if it is just the dark theme that makes it seem so. i am a bit confused though, they said "We are aware of the forums experiencing some layout issues and are working on this as quickly as possible. Issue is appearance-only and forums remain functional." and…
it seems a bit silly that this issue was "escalated" back in September 2021 last year, but we are still getting this error message "[Error] You have reached the limit for obtaining: Tracker..." turning in legacy quest completions to Sybella. from this thread it appears that it was related to the Echoes of Prophecy…
(I appreciate the information that people posted here) hmm about the frost mimic, unfortunately, I do not have that one. I was looking at one on the auction house and did not see in the description that it would function as a tank, unless it is the taunt ability from ravening maw? if that is the case, I will see if I can…
wow - I am really surprised by this. I thought using an xbox controller for neverwinter pc would just be plug and play (I thought that it would just involve assigning keybinds to the controller using the in-game keymapping settings). the way that the neverwinter game is set up - it always felt to me that it was MEANT and…
