Management to shareholders*-> " Look how much longer people are playing, We're obviously on the right track."
Fixed that for you. Any dev worth his salary knows this is not the answer to the storm that's raging across this game.
Nope, I'm starting to think I'm right on this one. You said it yourself "Any dev worth his salary...."
Unless there is serious micromanagement going on, management and shareholders only care about the money coming in. It's up to the worker bees, in this case developers, to provide a good product that that people want to support.
i suspect the devs can only do what they are allowed. I tried to give them some leniency when lag was so bad, Inhouse testing on a closed server didn't represent real world connection issues.
This game has received 20 US$ from me. I bought a character slot, a bag and a lock box key. the lockbox gave me two trade bars that i need 198 more of to purchase anything. The bag is obsolete now with all the excess <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> i have to carry in way of refining points.
Unless, they show a real interest in listening and fixing, I will not spend more. If they want a profitable game make it a game worth spending money to play
I just love this change, now the greatest risk of death while in combat with a healer or tank will be falling asleep while trying to kill a mob....
Learn to reduce the damage your taking with good dodges and cc powers.
His point is we will not need to dodge. The decreased damage and increased hp, means we will fall asleep because they cannot kill us and our dps will take forever to kill them. Thus we fall sleep and let our guard down.
On top of my bugged Transcendent Vorpal, enemies now take 50% longer to kill. This and you just nerfed Storm Spell. Wonderful. More reason not to play.
Cant imagine why you would still use the trans vorpal, except to debuff your crits and buff enemies on purpose?

I think this can give DC's more opportunity to use encounters powers that buff the team and maybe more GFs to spec to tactician for buffs and TRs can use wicked reminder without worrying about death trying to stack it on big adds. Hopefully if the changes relieve enough pressure on defensive capability then there is more opportunity for buffing and moving some defensive builds/stats to slightly more offensive.

*IMMUNE* Well, there goes my strategy.
I have a Great Weapon Fighter, Guardian Fighter, Oathbound Paladin, and a Control Wizard on Neverwinter. I've also tried a Devoted Cleric and Trickster Rogue. Let's just say that I can't find the motivation to cap any of them.
So my window of playing time for the day has been wasted by a patch that fixes none of players main concerns
Correct and they will keep delaying as much as they wish. I feel why be lied too? Why not listen to US the people who are giving you money? Oh I don't know because we get addicted. We can end them just like America run by Zionist printing money like wild fire.
ANOTHER hour extend? Because I haven't been waiting around on it since this morning? Oh but you're done with xbox now and they can play? I'm about to delete this game. This is ridiculous. It fixes NOTHING but here I am waiting 9 hours now for something I don't even like to begin with.
Classes and Balance
• Difficulty
o We are adjusting difficulty for all critters that are 6-~70 using some general guidelines:
o All enemies now have roughly 50% more Hit Points.
o All enemies deal roughly 25% less damage.
You cannot be serious. Grinding 60-70 is mind-numbing enough already and now you made it last even longer?
Also - one-shotting is not a thing in that level range. It's a thing with L70+ mobs and specifically L73 mobs. Players facing L60-70 mobs will actually take MORE damage after this fix as TTK has increased by 50% but incoming DPS has only decreased by 25%
This is combat design 101 guys. Did you all miss that class?
I think many people here are misinterpreting the adjustments to mobs. Shar, DR, WoD and IWD will NOT be affected. This was done to make lvling to cap easier. No change to max lvl/end-game content, which is where this change was sorely needed.
It won't make levelling to cap easier. It'll make it more difficult. This is an overall damage BUFF to mobs in that level range.

All of you people saying you hate this game.
You are addicted to neverwinter.
Look how you hover over the forums like vultures!
No matter what you will play and one way or another you will pay!
(Devious laugh)
If you really didn't care for this game, you would not take time to speak on the forums.

I hate paying taxes! Why must I pay thousands of dollars in taxes when everything I buy is taxed anyways!

We've already established this, thanks captain obvious. Meanwhile, those of us who live in America aren't doing anything to stop the Zionist agenda.

quit yer bishing. XBox is down as well, so quit spewing nonsense.
Nobody forces you to wait 9 hours at a computer while you could have been at the beach. You're free to have a life, and it sounds like you're returning to it. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
It's down now. I just watched my friend sit around and play it for a good hour. I do have a life, When I'm off work though? I'd really enjoy playing a game I enjoy(ed) on my downtime. But Updates all week? for stupid <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> obviously no one even wants? Don't like my nonsense? Don't read it.
btw: I have NEVER played an MMO before this, and my experience thus far is that the many laments of the players in these forums are futile; the developers do not listen to what you have to say. In fact I feel like they are working against what myself as a player would hope for them to change. When I hear players suggest that the developers are not playing the game, I can not help but wonder, could that be true? Could the people tasked with ensuring that a this game satisfies its player base simply not play the game like we do? Not running a dozen characters from start to endgame without pushing a "godmode" button or just getting BiS items without earning them? I hope not. But Cryptic, prove me wrong!
Haven't played the game since 1 month after Mod 6 hit and still am not going to. The patches since mod 6 were nothing but bug fixes and a big CW nerf (lol?) before even adjusting endgame content. Everyone I have played with in this game says the same thing: there is nothing to do at lvl 70 anymore unless your into wallet warrior pvp. Games population is way deader then ever, this patch doesn't change anything besides making leveling easier, but what happens when that new player gets to lvl 70 and realizes it's impossible to play without spending $$.

So uhhhhh yeah. Why change 6-70 content difficulty?!?! When it is IWD, WoD, and 2000 ilvl dungeons that are the issue????
I metered Barakas last night in elol with advanced combat tracker... his AURA hits for 133k every couple seconds?!@?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Yea... maybe this isn't something for wizards to be playing? I feel like all the endgame stuff is designed for super armored dps fighters.
