  • the problem is WotC restricting cryptic's choises. WotC has the final say what is represented. period. ^(stupid)^
  • they are only FOTM for pvp in pve, there is still a lot of skeptisism towards gwf. the general viewpoint on class priorit hasnt changed (overall): 1dc/1tr/1cw req, last 2 spots are filled as follows: 1dc/1tr/1cw (usually both slots are filled by these) > gf > gwf this is only a general viewpoint overall. there are those…
  • plaguefire (only the highest resistance deduction applies, the dot's all do dmg though) and student of the sword (1st tier feat that reduces resistance ignored by 15% stacking up to 3 (45%), debuff lasts 5 secs. only applied/refreshed on criticals) stack for all party members. WMS dmg % increase for all at-wills (and…
  • WotC made 4e the way it is because of a few reasons. 3.5e 1) it was very complicated for both new players and new DM's. a) a new player could expect 100 hours + just to learn the bulk of the basics to the point where they could start learning the complexities of the possibilities. b) new DM's weren't feasible if they didnt…
  • yes it is true that there are a lot of bad players for every class in NW. the problem is that gwf is the least played class by far, so the # of bad players is a lot more noticeable
  • for all of you that think cw's do WAY more aoe dmg than gwf.... you are both right and wrong. you are right at lower gear and skill levels you are wrong at higher gear and skill levels any dungeon where the group utilizes the "knock off cliff" tactic, CANNOT base their argument on that dmg meter. any hp left on mob when it…
  • the "console generation" isn't specific enough to cover the problem. the problem is the generation of players that started playing videogames (both console and pc) seroiusly AFTER roughly 7-8 years ago, because this is when video games started to become "quantity over quality" (i.e. "how much money can the company make")…
  • @adinosoulwood (and any1 else that keeps posting this question) CON does not grant armor pen CON grants you more resistance ignored (which is what armor pen grants) the armor pen total on char sheet is the total of ARMOR PENETRATION you have the total resistance ignored when you hover over armor pen on char sheet is the…
  • the only new set item gear that came with gaunt, was 1 new pvp set that has higher stats than the old set (i think diff set bonuses too) the old pvp set is bought in trade of blades in enclave for glory. the new pvp set is bought in gaunt staging area for grym coins. grym coins, so far, are used at the pvp gear vendor and…
  • @methuselas bravo finally someone on the forums posts these truths btw... this is not sarcasm, i truthfully and willingly applaud methuselas for his post
  • @hkiewa just how long did it take b4 DDO had all of those things you posted "right"? was it the 1st second of beta? was it the 1st second of live? or was it several months down the road? im saying it was 3rd choice. tearing apart every single detail that you dont like isnt productive. just look at the launch of vanilla…
  • @aorin84 when they announced the founder pack with the menzo rogue, they also stated that it was going to be an early access for drow, and the official release of drow for every1 won't be in game until at least 60 days after RELEASE (not from that date) which means at least 60 days after june 20, 2013. also, if they…
  • @shunterino about the rare tasks: there are always the 5-6 rare tasks in alc just like other prof's....BUT......the only rares that are visable are the dye batches, and the consummable batches of consumables you can actually make. i.e. if you cant make "minor fortification potion" then you cant see the rare for "batch of…
  • @theliethesame wait, since when can roar hit 8 targets? isn't the target cap on all gwf powers 5? if you can hit 8 targets with roar then you are using an exploit, because i just used it in game and could only hit 5 so there is 1 of 2 things that you are doing: 1) you used an exploit to increase your target cap (and thus…
  • i agree with iwrestlebearz that would probably be the best-case scenario
  • @ixdestroyxyou yes i know what the patch notes says. imo, the reason it is stated this way, is because "armor penetration" is a lot more common terminology in mmo's than "resistance ignored" because in other mmo's it is listed as "armor penetration" (which reduces armor by a flat amount or a %) because the only flat…
    in CON for gwf Comment by urlag June 2013
  • about keeping res sickness after you die the 2nd time in a boss fight: it has a good chance of happening when you release before combat ends if you release after combat ends (i.e. the boss resets), you will never have it when you respawn i agree campfires should remove it after a short time (1 min at most) the current…
  • what i have noticed, is that the RAD from the leadership quests, if done on gateway, will be automatically converted to AD and it will not count towards your convert limit BUT....... i have also noticed that after a certain amount of time after the gateway grants you that AD, it will disappear if you haven't been logged…
  • @ixdestroyxyou con doesn't give you arp, it increases "resistance ignored" this is why it makes sense that it isn't listed under "armor penetration" this is the same reason why a benefit of dex (critical chance) isn't listed under critical strike every thing listed under the "Ratings" section is a total of the stats…

  • when clicking on the respec feats button, it will consume AD to respec your feats. when clicking on the respec powers button, it will use a respec token (which will respec: powers, feats, ability scores) the free respec that was given, is a free respec token (which can be used by clicking on the respec powers button and…
  • @spacejew dont be disappointed just yet i personally will still be skeptical until the exact #'s are posted for the dmg buffs for SS and WS and the cd redux on the encounters but with the nerf to cw and tr and the fix to dc stacking, it may actually bring gwf in line comparitively
  • @spacejew deflect applies after damage reduction so if you have 50% dr and you deflect---from the dr you shrug off 50% of the dmg and then the deflect reduces the remaning 50% dmg by 50%, which means you take 25% of it not 0%
  • @rck2roll this game is based on pnp dnd 4e. in pnp 4e, clerics wear chain armor (unless they take feat for scale/plate), cannot use shields (unless they take feat for it), and a vast majority of their powers are ranged spells. the melee weapon based powers, are highly situational, and not taken very often due to that.…
  • do what luscarion said. also try to position your camera in a different spot. i play on full max graphics right now, but there are certain areas of the dungeons that i cant point my camera in certain directions. if i do my framerate drops to 1 or 2 until i swivel the camera away from where it is. mostly just happens to me…
  • @ spacejew generally the only cw's that you can count on to NOT use knockbacks on cooldown, are friends and some guildies. most cw's choose to do more dmg overall by denying other's dmg in general, instead of being a team player. if you cant rely on the cw(s) in your group to work with you, then dont even try to dps in an…
  • @allaerra what server are u on? jw cuz on mindflayer, the coalescent wards are actually pretty cheap on the ah, compared to zen shop you can get about 4 or 5 of them on ah for roughly the same price as 1 on zen store, with ad conversion but this was before the exploit was discovered, and prices went way down
  • why would you sacrifice SotS and not be able to get the feat for destroyer feature? my paragon feats are: destroyer: greatweapon focus 5/5 staying power 5/5 disciple of war 5/5 executioner's style 5/5 focused destroyer 5/5 destroyer's purpose 1/1 sentenel: student of the sword 5/5 i took disciple of war 5/5 for the free…
  • well, if you know code that well and know for a fact that the it is that bad, then you should have no problem volunteering your services to rewrite it, so you can better play a game that you so dearly love to play. wait. i dont think any of my interpretations about you based on what you posted are even close to the truth
  • any type of feedback will affect the playerbase, no matter if it is positive, negative, or neutral. negative will spawn more negative positive will attract the negative (and to a lesser extent, more positive) and neutral wil just not be constructive and will offer no help to either side, instead of waiting to see which…
  • @chai23 most of the "constructive" feedback is posted with no serious thought to it's cause and effect its just "this is what i want, make it happen"
