The Return of the Dungeon Delve

edited November 2014 in General Discussion (PC)
The Demon Lord Hexbarica has heard tales of incredible prowess by some of Neverwinter's greatest heroes and has decided to test their mettle himself. He will be opening portals to Neverwinter's most infamous dungeons for those who deem themselves worthy. But these dungeons will be twisted versions of themselves existing on a parallel plane of existence.

New adventures await in the form of all new cooperative challenges, fresh takes on familiar bosses and new treasure to be found. Items in the chests may be special edition T2 equipment with new tenacity stats. These new armor sets and accessories will be upgradable using pieces found in the other remixed dungeons along with a new associated profession tier. Upgrading will Empower the armor sets and allow the use of overload glyphs. Remixed and upgraded versions of fan favorite accessories will also be waiting for our intrepid adventurers as well as unique fashion items. A balanced team working together will be your only chance of survival. Start Training Today!

The Dungeon Delve Returns with a Vengeance. Starting May 2015.

    Now wouldn't it be great if PWE and Cryptic really "got" what many of us loved most about this game? They built some really fantastic dungeons. But the gear is old and the adventures stale. Some tweaks a fresh coat of paint and a new army of baddies with some serious challenge cranked up to eleven sounds like what this game needs in the way of End Game content. There are so many ideas to try, ways to emphasize team balance and cooperation. All things that wouldn't require all new dungeons, just remixing the ones we have. I'd sure love to see something like this come out. Release a new remix dungeon every month or so, with all of them tying together in some way. Ah well, a guy can dream...

    Forget Tenacity. How about including action point gain, or stamina regen instead?

    Particulars aside... good post. Would love to see a real official one, just like this.

    All they need to do, really-

    We had Epic stuff and they made Legendary stuff. So Legendary versions of current dungeons.. and next year they can introduce the 'Fabled' or 'Inter-planar' versions of same. =)

    It would be interesting to see the current T1's turned into twisted versions of themselves, only at a T2 difficulty (and with appropriate rewards), and the T2's turned into T2.5/3 twisted versions of themselves as well.

    It'd also be interesting to visit mirror version of some areas we already know - like what if we visited an alternate Feywild, where Malabog's forces were the good guys, and he had to fight against the evil Illiyanbruen elves, or where we finally got to push out those nasty sky pirates and help the friendly shamanistic lizardfolk?

    Great ideas for events, anyway!

    Indeed the stats should all be optimized for different roles, just like the originals were, but with today's characters in mind. I just know how many trs would love to drag out a pvp modified swash set, or GWFs the Avatar set or HV for CWs and so on..

    Mainly I know the community needs a revitalization of the economy and introducing farmable new appealing equipment would get the bees working and the queens spending and help Neverwinter's gears back to turning full tilt again. It also would be quite a bit of fun if done with different styles and such, perhaps with a bit of Respen's flair. and perhaps more dynamic encounters such as the Shores ambush.

    Would take some imagination, but not a huge team or a lot of new content to create. I'm sure the Foundry community would love to come up with ideas for twisted encounters and contests for such things are always fun.

    Oh please for the love of God Cryptic, please pay attention to some of these ideas and threads and let module 6 be these ideas + a new class instead of another new campaign/more artifact equipment. I am sure most of the user base will love you for it as well. :)

    Your talking about the leveldesign of the dungeons, not the dungeons themselves, right? Because gameplaywise they are pretty dull.
