  • The random drops blow IMO. I like the heroic quest rewards and think that the system used there needs to be incorporated in dungeons/raids. An alternative would be to stop the random drops of gear and have chests instead so that each party member gets a chance that way (With a system like DDO where you can pass your loot…
  • So far I have only gotten to the Mid Teens, I will try to get on and do some more later. Feedback: Weapon Grip Is it just me or does the Paladin hold his/her mace near the top? The grip on a mace is at the bottom so you have power/leverage on the strike, This is just like if you held a Hammer near the hammer head and not…
  • From my understanding they do have female versions, just they were not finalized in time for the vids, etc.
  • I hope it is worth buying. I am passing on the Dragonborn pack because it does not have anything I really want (never plan on playing Dragonborn) and is rather pricey. I liked the Hunter Ranger pack, I felt that it had some nice stuff in it.
  • They are breaking all classes into pieces vs the full class. Control Wizard is a path in 4e - not a class. Same for gwf, gf, tr, dc, etc.
  • Actually, Swordmage is from the FRPG and Bladesinger is in NWCS.
  • Well, more like 4e Influenced. Or Inspired by, vs based upon. Unless you are going with the real wide interpretation of 'based upon' like the movie "Wanted" was based upon the Comic book. The game can be fun, the foundry is cool, the setting is nice (wish it was more open like wow vs the small instances), etc. but it is…
  • Well, lets just say that I remember when Greyhawk and Blackmoor came out as supplements (in little paperback books). So Yeah, I am one of the Ancient.
  • I have played a Shifter Ranger, Deva Swordmage, Genasi Rogue and a Tiefling Monk in 4e. I love the how 4e embraced diversity in races for players. :)
  • Wow has always had a deeper story tied to its quest chain. *IF* you choose to actually pay attention to that sort of thing. The thing that has really hit me with NW is that several of the UGC I played had MUCH more story to them and felt much more in depth than any of the cryptic quests so far. I would really love to see…
  • All of them and now! But in order for my enjoyment: Swordmage Bladesinger Hexblade Ranger Monk Psion Warlock Sorcerer Hybrid Multiclass But I mostly want a freeform class option so that I can just be a rogue and not a 'build' rogue.
  • Awesome job, played it yesterday and loved it all! There is a slight maybe bug... when you are in the lizardman caves and you meet the ghostly figure? The three of them show up as :Kobald: "Ghostly Figure" or something like that. Anyways, i love how this is tied to Mystra and seems to be linked to the Lolth storyline going…
  • I thought GWF Was fun. Sure he took a lot more healing as I leveled him up, but once I had the cleric companion he became a juggernaut. Rogue does more damage 1 on 1 than the GWF but GWF does AOE damage, which made for things dying rather nicely. I was frustrated by the super rooting and lack of ability to get out of the…
  • The Empyrean Odyssey takes place right before the plague and I *THINK* it has it start. THe Abolethic Sovereignty Takes place during/after. The wilds deals with spellplague lands, etc. so they are pretty good to see what it has done.
  • Well if you want to keep up with current events in the realms: The Drizzt Series above: Gauntlgrym, Neverwinter, Charon's Claw and The Last Threshold This series was actually written to kick off this game. now Some other titles: Brimstone Angels and Brimstone Angels: Lesser Evils. This is a series that follows two Tiefling…
  • They did the same thing to Control Wizard before it was put in BW2. Have no fear GWF will show back up in a week or so. :)
  • I go with Selune and RP that I tell people I worship her when I really worship Shar.
  • How else will there be the 200 dollar Drizzt Wannabes in game? :rolleyes: But I could have sworn that when he mentioned the Archer he said something like the Dual Wield would actually probably come first. Probably wrong and did not hear it right (I was distracted by Andre taking Bong Hits :eek: ).
  • I thought he said Scourge Warlock and Dual Wield Ranger - that Archer was later.
  • My first character in 4e Was a Shifter Ranger (Used the Monster Manual stuff for shifter race). Very fun. I had a great time with him. My Favorite Character was a Deva Swordmage. I have also played a Genasi (storm soul) Monk and a Tiefling Rogue. :) To which point I would ask: Let us tatoo our bodies. We can show them off…
  • Zeb, I have to say that yours has been my favorite foundry quest so far. I like the way you have used current lore and tied the quest chain into what is currently going on in the realms. The environments were nice, the mobs were well placed and very much in tune with the setting. I do have one question - can you set it to…
  • About beards for half elves: In Beta 2 I could choose to have a mustache and soul patch combo like Wyatt Earp. No other beards that I saw.
  • Not in last Beta, will find out tomorrow if we an in this one.
  • well again, *IF* they actually do implement the PW possiblity which jack said they were looking into (of course it came from jack so take that for what it is worth), they could allow for full control over loot, xp, etc. (Again jack said this is theoretically possible). As characters who are created/go to the PW in question…
  • I will have a half elf for certain.
  • The thing is . . . DDO had them voice two adventures. Gary did Delera's Tomb and Dave did Threnal. One of the reasons I gave DDO such high props back in the day - they really seemed to be invested into D&D. The inclusion of the items, monuments was really a nice gesture but to be honest - that was just icing on the cake as…
  • I would love to see Cryptic add all the races from PHB1 then add the races from the FRCG followed by PHB2, PHB3, etc. So sure, dragonborn would be cool to have added. Just as various Genasi would be as well, and Devas, Shifters, Gnomes, etc.
  • I do not hold out hope for that. I stated that the foundry as it stands is not that revolutionary as some are claiming. It is a really cool feature, but not a super cool awesome feature. There will be some really good stuff come out of the foundry - of that I am certain - there will be a whole lot of garbage too - and I am…
  • The foundry will only be revolutionary if cryptic allows it to be. As it stands now the fantastic modders/builders from NWN 1&2 will find the current foundry quite limited. We do not have the ability to modify the ruleset or to create persistent worlds. (Before you yell "EXPLOITER!" I come from a Hard Core rules server in…
  • While I would love deadly traps and trap filled dungeons - the sad fact is that taking a page from the history of DDO - Players will complain, players will rate your foundry content poorly, etc. and traps would be nerfed into a minor annoyance. This is being marketed as an 'action' rpg thus you can not really have slow…
