Calling all adventurers to fly to the island Garrundar inhabits to take part in the return of CTA: Garrundar the Vile! http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/neverwinter/news/detail/9739483

I think CTAs need a freshy improvement! But even more awesome would be epic versions of all Skirmishes to play as end game. A big ball of fresh "new" content. I know... just ideas.

Edit: a Spiders Village CTA with special "Spider look" transmutable gear sets would be great. Something like GFs and CWs who have an armor of that kind in Rothé Valley quests. By the way, please Strum, tell the artwork designers that Rogues like daggers as weapons, not "unfitable big swords" in rogue's daggers-like moves!!! Thanks!

That's a great idea! I would like running the skirmish over and over, but both my characters are over 3K il. They just whistle through this content--and the content looks exciting!

This is one of the few skirmish events I enjoy despite there being little on offer for me. I just wish they would do a monthly skirmish event along with all the other events, and use all the skirmishes we only have access to at certain stages during the levelling process.

What's the chance of getting a Lizardfolk Shaman Companion out of the Call of Arms event? %? thx

arabatur

Should this really be taking less than 1 minute to complete?

publius99

Does anyone know how rare the Lizard Shaman companion is?

The same as all the other CTAs? They're 10k AD on the AH so they can't be that hard to get.

That's because of winterfest and "wanna-get-money-fast" sellers

I would say you will almost guarantee get one out of 50 runs give or take..

I'm very disappointed about this. Can it even be called a skirmish now that it takes 1 minute to complete? I take back what I said earlier

The level scaling is still broken. These CTAs used to be a challenge and really fun until Mod 6, now they are a breeze. You can't even lose health. Please make them harder.

Why would you even run it if it took 5+ minutes? The rewards are garbage. The only reason they're even worth running is because they end quickly.

I love how the dragon keeps knocking you off your feet BEFORE the red circle appears. Devs, do you have any idea how frustrating that is?

silverkelt

dragon doesnt do anything other then standard wing flap and breath.

Your getting hit by a trapper.

hustin1

You're wrong. The black dragon also spits out acid into a large red circular area. When it hits you, you get knocked off your feet.

Woot. Can't wait to see what the OP transmutes look like.

I think it's absolutely ridiculous that they just recycled the GF skins, but made the OP have a separate item. Other events have allowed shared weapon and shield skins to be tagged as valid for both GF and OP, or created a legitimately new mace (etc.) and even new shields (again sometimes valid for both classes). This "added transmute" was both lazy and an act of unnecessary duplication. Should have just tagged the OP onto the GF skin if nobody was up for creating new artwork for it.

zukn75

I'd like to see the lvl 60 version remain for lower toons but a lvl 70 version added for the lvl 70 2.5+K iL crowd, because every run I've been on in the last 3 or 4 CTAs has had at least 1 character in the group who can solo it within 3 or 4 minutes, it really is push button receive bacon.

The battle for the bridge was seriously less than 2 minutes- this one at least had a unskippable cut scene.

freshour

Yeah I did it 4x I think... took less than 10 mins most of that being the cut scene and bought a shaman off the AH and called it a day. I swear at some point I remembered dying in these things at one point. I was in a party with like level 20's and I stood back as a bis level 70 cw, and they still crushed the thing. What happened?
