What do people think about the just announced tweaks to Mod6?

indiscriminant · August 2015

I had heard about all the horror stories and read quite a bit regarding the difference in mobs with Mod6, now they have posted an imminent tweak to the HP/Dmg of everything coming to PC and that will be included with the expansion for Xbox. Definitely hard to complain or comment without having experienced it, any PC players who switched over to Xbox able to provide some clarity? Do you think these tweaks will help prevent some of the issues they had on PC?

I will say as the CM that these changes are very very good.

I would have to agree. It will make the grind to 70 less of a grind.

Sounds good to me. a lot of people on facebook don't like it, or feel it's too late lol
their loss

I'm just happy we don't have to experience what the PC players experienced. It's encouraging that the developers listened to complaints and are responding. If players don't want to shake hands, that's their business. But it is an olive branch and a mea culpa from the devs who put a lot of work into this game.

As the CM do you have any ideas or general timelines that we will be seeing EE drop for us on Xbox? Based on previous bonus weekends and other content I am assuming its likely the same week as Destiny drops Taken King but would love to know more and prefer it not be at the same time so I can balance my addictions lol.

It definitely sounds like a step in the right direction. It's encouraging to see that maybe there is hope for this game. I don't know if it will bring back all the PC players that quit the game because of mod 6 but it might prevent the same thing from happening on the Xbox. There's still a few more major issues with mod 6 that makes playing Neverwinter unenjoyable to the average player and hopefully these issues can also be addressed soon.

Being a PC player, these changes are extremely welcome to me.

What xbone players need are guides to the new gear for each class and where to obtain it. I've never seen such an information deficit with a game as I have with neverwinter.

To be fair, a vast majority of the "usual suspects" that used to keep the wiki up to date and put in the time and effort to inform the community of the game's inner workings and mechanics have either quit playing due to a loss of interest, or, as of late, been banned over some rather controversial stuff I'd rather not get into (in fact, just stating that fact is liable to get me censored/into trouble...)

I'm not saying this to be all doom and gloom though. I very much enjoy the game and plan on playing it for a good long while. I'm just stating it as an indication that if it's more guides and info and data on this game, we're gunna have to take up the mantle and do the research and wiki updating and guide writing ourselves... We won't be able to rely on the min/maxing number crunchers of the past to continue to provide us with their "research" findings. That's not to say that ALL the guide writers, min/maxers, and number crunchers are gone. But it seems to be that now is the time for us to rely on ourselves, if that makes sense. I wish I could talk more on this particular topic but out of fear of drumming up reprecutions by mentioning issues still fresh in the minds of some within this community, I'll stop here and just reiterate my main sentiment. We... have to become the guide writers.

The new changes that we will be getting to mod 6 when it comes out will be quite welcome. I don't feel like we'll be getting overloaded with content now that we wont be able to do with the new grind for some time.

acridbird74 · August 2015

@mrtehpuppy I figured that's what happened. Once we get Mod 6 for XBO, I will try to help update the official wiki with info about new armor and weapons.

Sooooonnnn

I think they could care less. They only bothered fixing it because they knew it would instantly cut the xbox population right in half.

Too little too late.
