  • My primary character in this game is a Rogue - and although I have great fun playing it, I do have to admit that it is overpowered. With only one exception (where I got my butt handed to me and had to quit the dungeon), I've been able to play level appropriate dungeons with just my Rogue and Cleric companion instead of an…
  • Here's an idea.... don't trade with anyone you don't know. Anyone that attempts to trade with a total stranger in-game should expect to get ripped off. The vast majority of trades with those you don't know will result in one person or the other getting ripped off.
  • Third edition started the trend away from fighters being masters of combat. Rogues became the masters of combat against single opponents, "strikers". Fighters were delegated to being slow moving "tanks" that take more damage than they dish out. Their role was to simply absorb damage so that the other party members didn't…
  • That is by far the biggest drawback to this game. If you want to play in mouse-look mode, great, do so. But for those of use that prefer to play 3rd person games using a mouse to select abilities, objects, etc.... give us our mouse back. This isn't a first person shooter, so why map the keyboard as if it were? Also, wrist…
  • What the original poster seems to forget is that 3rd edition (and greatly more so in 4th edition) D&D fighters were gimped to a support role of dealing low damage to multiple targets and the rogue was elevated into the role of "striker" doing massive damage to a single target (that used to be the role of the fighter).
  • PVP in all MMOs is pointless. It is and always will be about buffing up as far as possible, score the quick kill or simply button-mash after that. It will never be balanced because each class has a different role. Fighters in this game are designed to do low damage to multiple targets, rogues are designed to do massive…
  • It never ceases to amaze me that people just don't understand "endgame", as in "game is over and at an end". You can keep playing that character if you really want to, but don't expect to gain anything more.... the game is over. Roll a new character and start again, or go play something else.
  • Although I agree with the original poster, the fact that this game uses 4e (and a watered down version at that) pretty much says that it will never be D&D.
  • Maybe I'm missing something, but I just don't see the point in crafting.
  • Absolutely agree with this. 4e broke D&D, which is why they immediately started work on D&D Next (5e) to try to bring the splintered community back together. The best thing that ever happened to Pathfinder, was the publishing of 4e. A product has to be pretty bad when you put out the next edition, and more people flock to…
  • Send all your gold to me... then switch characters and meet me at the top of the highest peak, and I will give it all back... I promise... you can trust me, I'm just pretending to be a Rogue.
  • This game is based on 4e D&D, where alignment was ... well... almost completely removed. 9 alignments were reduced to 5 (but only 3 playable), and they removed all consequences for violating / changing alignment. If they put alignment into this game, it likely will have absolutely no effect. Also, if you've noticed some of…
  • Just wish you could discard the darn things, or better yet never even get them to begin with. In other PWE games, the annoying lockbox is the most common drop and a complete waste of inventory space. You found piles of them discarded next to vendors from all the people who discarded them. Get rid of them.
  • A Need / Greed / Pass system is by default - broken. Expecting that players of any age from any where in the world are suddenly going to do anything other than click "need" is ludicrous. I've played other PWE F2P games, and at first I too complained about people "needing" everything. But the more you think about it, the…
  • Rogue and Great Weapon Fighter each with a cleric companion = unstoppable.
  • I'd like to give my 2.4 cents on the issue, but after 7 hrs of downloading (server only at 30% capacity yet I'm averaging 135 KB/s for a 3 GB download???). I have a fast internet connection, but after 7 hours I'm only at about 60% done. That's after trying several different download servers (the first I got was advertising…
  • All treasure "drops' should be assigned to a specific player by the game, if that player wants to trade it to another for something they got instead, or if that player wants to sell it so be it. The whole need/greed/pass system is inherently broken and should be abandoned.
  • Thanks for the info - but I'll never understand why they made an online game out of the most reviled and least played version of D&D.
