    This will all be in the same update.

    Could we temporarily get the Gloves back in the Forge? I don't know. Either I'm completely unlucky or the HEs that supposed to drop the Gloves in Icewind Pass don't spawn regularly. If they drop in Dwarven Valley the HEs are there, but the population on preview just isn't sufficient to really get a team constantly.

    Getting rid of movement and replacing it with recovery is a good thing.

    HR Corrupted sets will have Critical Strike in place of Movement in the two items that currently have it (head and feet). Hopefully this change will be ready for the next build on Preview.

    The inclusion of Tenacity on the black ice gear shouldn't make you think it's intended solely for PvP, however. The sets do not have Tenacity in place of any other stat, but in addition. The intent here is that the items you find and craft in this zone can be used effectively in any content you encounter in Icewind Dale.

    ty ty ty! :) I was beginning to wonder if I would have to go all power on my HR just to compensate for the lack of Critical strike.. will we see other ways of obtaining PVE weapons besides the Heroic Encounter? maybe add them to the crafting table or even possible drops from skirmishes along with the PVP corrupted / purified? and i do understand that the PVP set will benefit us vs. the NPC mobs in the wilderness as well.. It kinda bummed out knowing that there is only 1 spot to get the PVE weapons which honestly i would prefer over the corrupted PVP weapons.

    If we are making requests for replacements for movement, can TRs get life steal on their corrupted set?

    @ontheriver

    Thank you very much for your comments.

    I would kindly like to ask you about the following:

    These are the "2 of set" bonus in the GWF gear: 150 action point gain (corrupted) / 150 stamina/guard gain (purified)

    150 means 2% is a very unnoticeable bonus, are these place holders or are they going to be changed to another stat which also gives us GS instead of that %, just like the t1/t2 sets.

    I just want to thank the game developers for taking the time to read our forum posts, making revisions to the new Icewind gear to better suit our classes and their stat priorities. We know that you cant change everything at once and do everything we ask and or request of the new upcoming content, so just keep up the good work that you all have been doing.

    BTW I posted some bug reports ingame that concerns Icewind dale so if you could take a few and check them out it would be greatly appreciated :), nothing major, just graphical and a few nodes that cant be mined atm. :)

    Is there any chance of a possible announcement for release date or rough idea when Module 3 goes live? (credit card in hand with anticipation) LOL :)

    Feedback : way i see all the new "so called best in game armors"

    Only HR have better gear .

    All other 5 class have better Profound pvp gear " better for PVE too" then the new introduced T3 Black Ice gear ..

    Summa summa: TR 30% more steath and 8.5 % more dmg whithout any boon and only rank 6 enchants tr can solo CN.
    DC More heal and more divine power so DC can be better healer.
    CW much more controll and more dmg for tab ability.
    GF more running speed and more block and more dps all what this class need "i feel to say he need more " .
    GWF more critt and power+ the best defense and 7.5 % deflect (i think this alone is more then 4000 stat on deflection after the cap)

    So i can say the T3 armor sett not the best .
    Also weapons look cool to me but the base dmg is lower then MC or VT weapons and not increasing if powered by Black Ice.

    hi there,

    i'm discussing here as a dc, i tested the new module and i would say great job guys, good to see some improvements and fresh contents!

    nevertheless, the new sets bonuses are very unappealing.... So, ontheriver, could you just precise if the set bonuses are same for all right now and are going to change, or if it is the way i can see.

    for second, plz, put a group buff or mob debuffing instead of the crappy actual bonuses , thanks.

    Nobody play on preview its a test server for testing stuff what is not Implemented.
    I dont tested it cuz the time to grind all gear for 6 class is too much mybe not for u .
    I just see the collection page and look on stats and set bonuses. And give Feedback and i also say its the way I see.... No you.

    Also i do some test but not with the new gear the way i see its not soo good in pve right now .
    But if you say all armors absobe 90 k dmg in 30 sec then i say omg forget what i say before .
    If you say the weapon sett deal 1 mill B.I bonus dmg then i say omg forget what i say before .

    I'd assume so, other stats will rise, so probably damage too. Noone will have been able to actually craft it yet though. You also get a different set bonus too and will make up for it in other stats. Especially with tenacity being a free stat.

    So its only a theory.
    I belive only in god and things what i can see . As long as i cant see the true form of the gear i dont belive its better then the current pvp sets.
    So Feedback : Let us see the high T3 powered Black ice gear in Collection window in her true form . Or give us pls some img here in this forum.

    DC More heal and more divine power so DC can be better healer.

    Uhm...you don't play DCs much, do you ?

    Healing is a secondary function for high-end DCs - their primary function is now buffing and debuffing, which is why most of the high-end clerics run around in T1 High Prophet set with R9-R10 enchants. It is the best set for what they are expected to do in a group.

    The Black Ice DC gear is not bad for solo PvE, however....
    Hoping for improvements...

    Is there any screenshot of wiki page that shows me the new updated stats from last patch?
    I'd really like to see a better PvE tanking set (for GF) than Indomitable Champion one of these days. =/

    (Not gonna download/install the preview client just to see a bunch of numbers.)

    Feedback: always show T1/T2/T3 stats on the new gear
    it would be nice if you could always show the stats of the gear for each Empowered tier and highlight the active one
    Example:

    Can someone explain how gear is charged?
    It appears like you buy BIgear for about 40kbi a piece then need to "charge" for another 40kbi and that lasts for a few hours??
    Is that right?

    If so it sounds like an insane grind. Also it seems the BIgear is required for some of the new content.
    Hopefully someone can explain the process to me. This doesnt sound like any fun to me.

    To charge, you right click on the corrupted/purified piece while it is equipped and there will be an option for Black Ice Empowerment. From completely empty to full it takes 3k black ice to charge it up (at least for my helm). It also has just under 7 hours of combat time at rank 3. I would assume at that point it will drop to rank 2 and then finally to rank 1.

    ~10k bice for the gear, ~10k to upgrade to purified/corrupted. Not took notice to upgrading/maintaining costs myself.

    I Agree. Currently the set bonus is undersirable in my opinion.
    150 AP Gain is supposed to be less than 2% (1.875%) and it is not enough to compensate for the lower gs/lower recovery/lower recharge speed we get by having 450 less recovery.

    Feedback: Lesser Corrupt Piercing Enchantment
    I put the lesser corrupt piercing enchantment into my helm yesterday and I have to say I'm disappointed. It very rarely procs and when it does it lasts 2 seconds at most. Add in the fact that it only lasts 8 hours (and I would assume disappears since I can't find a way to recharge), it is not worth crafting at all. I'm assuming the rest are like this but the piercing one is the one I tested.

    Enhanced gear doesn't have a lower GS , at least the CW ones don't , I swapped out my HV boots and hat for fully charged corrupt hat and boots and it increased my GS by just over 400 , the gear shown in collections has lower GS due to it not being enhanced .

    Adding the recovery to the cw gear was welcomed. Could you consider changing the deflect to something more usefull like lifesteal?

    Thanks.

    Ps. The 2 piece bonus needs some love as well.
