Hello guys, many Xbox players have requested my guide for Mod 5 which wasn't longer available since I updated it for Mod6 PC. However, below you will find a snapshot. I'm sorry for any inconvenience.

    Hi there Lazaroth, I have been playing Neverwinter on the xbox one for just over 2 weeks now and have been using your guide (which has been amazing) I have just reached level 60 and would like to get the gear you have.
    I have 3 questions which are

    1. What gear did you have before you got the avatar of war set? been thinking of getting the berserker gear but it would leave me pretty broke.

    2. What's the best way to make AD's?

    3. Are the professions worth doing? i have been doing Leadership and Mailsmithing.

    Also I subscribed to you on youtube, and told my friends about your channel.

    Thanks for the amazing crit guide and Stay OP from a fellow GWF.

    Hi, thank you very much for your comments.

    1. Unfortunately, I don't know how difficult is to get gear in xbox but when I started to play my GWF I had the Berserker set for brief period (very cheap in AH by then) and I started to farm every AoW piece during Dungeon Delves event. If you have this DD event, just farm it and don't even think about buying pieces in the AH.

    2. There are many ways to do AD and you can check a couple of posts in the forum about it but one that have always been a good source of AD is through Leadership and your own army of alts, each one farming tasks will grant you a good income daily.

    3. Leadership takes a lot of time so it would be better to go with Jewelcrafting (do you have this one?) Mailsmithing is good only if you have epic assets so you can craft shirt/pants otherwise, it is not a good idea. Finally, leadership because there is nothing else to do, the professions in this game aren't very rewarding.

    Thank you for suscribing! that helps me a lot!

    Hey Lazaroth, just to answer your quick questions.

    Yes we have dungeon delves, I took your advice and have 2 berserker set and 2 AoW set, I would have more AoW set if people did not kick in the dungeons before I even get to swing my sword.

    And yes jewelcrafting is in the game but I have not started it yet but I would like to know why you recommended jewelcrafting?

    Also my friend who is a devoted cleric would like you to make a guide for his class, or at the least guide him to a good guide :)

    thanks again

    Thank you for the info. :)

    Jewelcrafting will allow you to craft accesories. The most important pieces are the rings which will grant you a good amount of stats and once you personalize them, you will have 1 offensive slot and 1 defensive slot in each one of them.

    Unfortunately, I haven't played my DC since Mod2 and many things have changed since then. I'm the kind of player who likes to test everything and take the character to the limit. Doing that with my DC would require a huge investment in time and AD. If your friend is looking for answers, I advice him to visit The Temple. I'm sure that the DC players dwelling in there will be glad to help.

    Hey laz, thanks for this! Quick question, what will we replace the AoW set with? It doesn't look like there's currently anything in game that is better. But I'm not sure how long that will last. What do you recommend we replace it with? If ever?

    AoW is the best set. Finally we were able to use another one in Mod6 only because the stats were reworked and thefore the AoW became obsolete. We complained a lot in this forum because every time we had a new module, we always had to use the same set again and again... it was a bit frustrating.

    Wow thanks again for the reply, I sure do appreciate your help to the xbox community. That's kinda lame that GWFs don't have anything to look forward to until lvl 70 in mod 6. But it's got pros and cons to it. Really, thanks again.

    If you wanted to update this FAQ to reflect current XBox, we pretty much need to put Armor Pen into every single slot we possibly can, since we don't have any boons/half the gear PC did at MOD4/5. With Level 7 dark enchantments in every single offensive slot + armor pen on every possible piece of gear and we still fall short of 24%...including Ioun Stone and all his jewelry! Can probably get there with level 8's in every slot.

    In other words: if people follow your suggestion of Radiant for Offensive, they will end up doing far less damage due to having something like 12% (Can't tell you exact numbers, game is down for maintenance, but it's crazy low) ArP instead of 24%

    EDIT: I should mention making personalized jewelry is very hard at this point: "Jewelcrafting assets in the Professions Pack and the special packs that drop from Lockboxes will be enabled in the upcoming module release." So getting the items to make 250 ArP items is very very expensive/impossible depending on if there's anything at all in auction.

    EDIT 2: Servers are up, looks like you CAN reach 24% with just 7's. However if you don't use mostly Darks, you'll still be well below 24%

    Where does CON fall into that Armor Pen requirement for PvE?

    The artifacts are not all available what other best options are being used?
  • masterwolf56masterwolf56 Member Posts: 204 Arc User
    I use lantern instead of kessels. Not sure if they'll release the lockbox for it since it was before the Tyranny ones. I also use Horn of Lostmauth. Heart of the Blue Dragon can be picked up from Nine Hells lockboxes. They're pretty expensive in market otherwise. I currently have Heart of the Red Dragon equipped, it's the only one I need to upgrade now.

    What are those armor transmutes you used? They look fantastic.

    To get AP soft cap, I use Gemmed Champions Sword Knot for off hand. It's pretty cheap in the market and made through weapon smithing. This will be replaced with the bonus from the off hand artifact once I get it. This gives 213 AP. Artifact set gives 250 AP from what I see in the Wiki.

    Cloak of Black Ice, gives 298 AP. Lazalia uses the Imperial Cloak but PC has access to boons that we don't have. I plan to swap it out with Lostmauth's Hoard Necklace mod 6.

    2 Personalized Archmage Rings. 250 AP each + 2 on Stone of Radiance. Total of 1k AP. These go pretty cheap with people who try to undercut each other in the market. Not even worth making considering if you fail making gemmed you will lose money. I see these for 140 k, just need to get your jewelcrafting high enough to make personalized version. I made my own to save some money.

    Lantern of Revelation 350 AP, Horn of Blasting 350 AP. Total of 700 AP.

    Total gear in AP is 2650 with the off hand artifact. That should put you over the soft cap and you would use no dark enchants, if you use Imperial cloak you'd have to play around with gear to hit softcap. It's a lot of work though and time used in farming and costs a lot of money to build the gear.

    That was helpful. Is there anything we can do about the number of swings it takes to get our big hits. I feel like I have to hit some thing 10 times to get a decent hit. My first hit is 20k then it increases to 400k over 10 or more swings but only if I get the sequences of attacks right. Also if we get interrupted we have to start over.

    Hello Lazalia, I would like to know if this build is fully updated? As well I cannot open the links for powers. I would also like to know what Dye you used for your armor. Thanks in advance!

    I may have missed it somewhere, But Lazalia, or anyone that could possibly help...A friend of mine plays as a GWF, I've tried looking for him myself and I personally play a main class as Devoted cleric so I don't know much about the GWF, but he was wondering what the best rotation for a GWF is. I'm not totally certain (I saw your encounter powers, etc) if that's how you're rotation is set up or not. Sorry if this sounds completely noobly, but I was just curious. @lazaroth666

    Depending on your powers up, and mine probably runs different (but if I remember Lazalia's build correctly), you'd probably want to hit them with a Daring Shout or Not So Fast first (to get/keep them near you), then Flourish to stun them in place, then land IBS which is a little slower to land. Flourish really helps keep the enemy in place. But honestly, that's a very rudimentary rotation. It all depends on exactly what you are fighting and often requires some experimentation. Tell your friend to reread the powers section of the guide and start with that or what I listed above.

    Edit - oh, and don't forget to build your stacks first using your at-wills and such. The big hits come when Destroyer and Weapon Master have full stacks.
