No new gear. That's it.
Give us maps and quests not gear and mounts. Give us the dungeons back.

rename to "some request"
That is a great idea!

2) Fix broken class mechanics. Getting tired of shelling our $15 every month for something that I didn't break. Either that, or make the game subscription-based to cover these costs because it basically is now.
3) Guild strongholds the can be customized and taken by other guilds. It doesn't mean anything if it can't be taken.
4) Different ways of making RP. Maybe adding them to all HE's in various zones. The amount given can stay the same.
5) New transmutes for armors and weapons. Please for God's sake.... mod 6 stuff looks terrible.
6) No more power creep.
7) No more power creep.
8) No more power creep.
On your other points? I agree, though I certainly don't shell out money. I believe in getting what I pay for.
On #3? I couldn't possible disagree with you more. And, unless Cryptic does something WAAAAY out of character, thankfully, this will absolutely never happen.

This would clash with "meaningful rewards from DDs / Tiamat".
Now, had you written "No new artifact gear"...
Revisiting it, I think I would amend this slightly. However, there needs to be some penalty for "losing" your stronghold. Maybe not losing it, but some sort of destruction. If there isn't a risk-reward, there isn't any real competition.
Yes!!!! New currencies!! I can't wait, Zen is soooo last module...
That, I can agree with: No new Artifact gear.
What I wish was that instead of new gear, they'd make, effectively framework gear where every stat is adjustable. You can make, get as drops, or buy items "insert" into your gear much like enchantments, that increase various stats. You want a weapon that gives ONLY power - ok, no problem, you want one that boosts every stat? No problem! Perhaps there are T1-T3 types where each type has some overall max number of points you can insert, and you have the ability to upgrade your T1 version to a T2, etc - perhaps even using the currently refinement system. I don't mind grinding out RP, it's gives some sense of purpose... I DO mind grinding out RP only to have the item I've lovingly upgraded over a period of months suddenly become obsolete so that I have to start over from scratch. It's a slap in the face. Don't care that it's par for the course in other MMOs... it makes the game less fun. LESS FUN. And, kids, what happens when a game isn't fun? ...

New mod = new players? maybe, but like you said.. will they stay?
Hasn't worked out that way for Mod6.

this game is old news aint going to improve
I went in and out and the same bs,they kill it with mod 6
I hear you. Like I said though, it would be very unlike cryptic to do that. Think about the currently PvP offerings? You lose nothing, at all. In IWD, the worse thing that happens is you have to spend a kit to heal your wound. In STO, there are "defend the base" missions, and if you lose.. meh, no big deal, you lose. But your base remains unaffected. The problem with actual damage due to PvP is that, guilds that specialize in pvp will simply roll over every small or PVE-oriented guild, leaving those guilds unable to ever progress. I mean, have you ever played any of the thousands of build-your-city-and-fight-other games that use a world map? Any player that dumps money into those games and supercharges his/her troops will walk all over your city and annihilate you every time, making it effectively impossible to every "do well" -- same principle applies here, except that those phone games don't care whether players do well or not.
I suppose, it calls into question Cryptic's attitude, but the last few months aside, Cryptic as generally shown itself to care about whether it's players are enjoying the game (I played STO for several years before moving to Neverwinter). That's changed, clearly. But, hopefully it's not permanent. Regardless, even despite Cryptics unfortunate turn to ambivalence toward it's players, I cannot imagine them breaking their many year long tradition of never imposing actual lost on players for being defeated.

As I take it from stuff so far available, there should be some sort of PvE and/or PvP defense and/or attack. Nad the PvP part - fully in line with the game so far - should be completely consensual only, I read.
So, it sems the Strongholds will probably be some liege-lord castle or manor style affair.
And if i were to design it, I'd offer the option to acquires some fairly safe strongholds, in the closer neighbourhood of PE, where the base income might be lower or the acquisition might be higher, but you'd have less fighting to do, and might get access to enhanced crafting possibilities. Then some intermediate ones, like near Rothé Valley or Helm's Hold, where PvP is part of the deal and the rewards are somewhat higher. And borderlands fortresses, where you'd be constantly under PvE attack, PvP might be enforced on you from the outside, but you could just move in, get a boost to the costruction costs, and have high reward _potential_. To realize that potential you'd have to pacify the zone, entice artisans or miners to settle, etc. etc.
Just my take, most probably not what we'll see...
No. I think what we'll see is a really big map with a single Stronghold on it with a town and some wilderness areas with PvE and PvP options. The question is, how will we be able to muster a guild into that map easily? It's exceedingly tedious to gather in a single IWD map, hope they take that into consideration!

agreed. Strongholds need to be op-in pvp or not at all. LOTs of people don't care about PvP at all, and wont pump any ad or resources into strongholds if other guilds can wreak them. Major revenue loss for cryptic if that's allowed.
