Can any of the moderators confirm which races will be available for free starting on July 12th and which races will be available via premium content?

Thank you for your time.

    All the races that are currently available on PC and Xbox should be available on PS4, with the possible exception of the Metallic Dragonborn race, as that comes from a lockbox. Those races are: Human, Drow, Dwarf, Half-Elf, Half-orc, Halfling, Sun Elf, Tiefling, and Wood Elf as the free races, and Menzoberranzan Renegade, Sun Elf, and Dragonborn as the "premium" races.

    Thank you for your reply. You have Sun Elf listed as free and premium. Is Sun Elf free or premium? I know the Moon Elf was premium and you don't have that one listed.

    Thank you in advance for your time.

    That was a typo, the Moon Elf is premium, Sun Elf is free. Sorry for the confusion. I should type when distracted, lol.

    Thank you "kreatyve"! If you haven't figured it out yet there are quite a few of us "future" hardcore Neverwinterers that are trying to plan out as much as possible before Tuesday (12th). We appreciate as much advanced information as you guys can give us.

    ......please tell me I can just buy the races by themselves, because otherwise...

    Well, I don't know what I'll do, but I know it will probably involve flipping tables.

    *sigh* So long, character slots. Maybe next month... >_<

    The Moon Elf comes with the Fury of the Feywild pack. You can not just buy the class without buying that package. I don't know for sure if it will be available at launch. The dragonborn comes with either the Dragonborn race reroll pack ($25 on PC, price may be different on PS4), or the Dragonborn Legend pack ($60 on PC, price may be different on PS4). The Menzoberranzan Renegade comes with a $200 pack on PC, but a $60 on Xbox, so more than likely, maybe a $60 pack on PS4, but I do not know for sure.

    Okay, now that's reasonable, especially for players with a limited budget like me. They should make reroll packs for all the premium races, and if people that can afford them want to buy the bigger packs, that's fine too.

    As long as there's an option for budget players, I'll be happy.

    Keep in mind, you can exchange Astral Diamonds for Zen. When PS4 first launches, the exchange rate should be pretty low. Run dungeons a minimum of twice daily, earn as much AD as you possibly can, and exchange it for Zen while the rates are low. You may be able to get the premium race packs (even the more expensive ones) for little to no money invested.

    It'd be nice to have a $25 option for all the premiums, not just Dragonborn though.

    ...but still, low exchange rates... which means the earlier I start playing, the better...

    Welp, looks like I'll be getting Early Access after all. Thank you, sir.
