Hell Pit Suggestion

jmiller84jmiller84 Member, NW M9 Playtest Posts: 188 Arc User
in General Discussion (PC)
With Hell Pit returning, figured this would be a good time to bring this up. The Overload Enchantments available thru the vendor should have a recharge ability. 10 hours of combat time goes quite fast as anyone who uses Black Ice overloads can attest to, even though those are 8 hours comparatively.

I'd suggest adding in a recharge via Astral Diamonds. You're always looking for a way to get people to spend their AD and this would be a perfect way to get people to do that. Have it cost 200k AD to fully charge a Hell Pit overload.

Just a bit of food for thought.

    + the event itself should become a really returning one like the Siege of Neverwinter, giving everyone an equal shot at getting a legendary mount over time.

    + the mount itself should become an account-wide unlock, classes change all the time, it would be nice to know that the one decent reward we can get from an event won't be lost on a single character, when something gets changed again.
    it looks like that one is going to happen with the next patch, nice change, thank you.

    Want to know why?
    Because it sends a message!

    That is not how I read it. It looks like, instead of extending the Hell Pit, they are going to extend the rewards structure to other events.

    Events

    The Golden Horse mount, when purchased via an event vendor, will now unlock for all characters on the account.

    I read the above statement as all characters on the account will have that mount.
    But there is a catch (or typo), the mount for Hell pit should be Golden Warhorse. Is Golden Horse something else for a different event?

    These are extemely powerful overloads. If they were going to make them rechargeble, id like to see more of a time + money element involved. (less pay to win)

    for instance:
    recharge cost: 50,000 AD plus 50,000 Voninblod

    Sorry. This is the part that I was thinking about:


    Tokens of Achievement Rewards (Participation Tab)
    Similar to the Tales of Old season structure introduced this year, participating a minimum amount will result in a Token of Achievement. These tokens can be spent to purchase some fairly valuable items. These tokens will not be available for the first 14 days of the event since 14 successes is needed to begin unlocking Tokens of Achievement. Only 1 Token of Achievement will be awarded during Hell Pit. Subsequent events throughtout a year timespan will each reward 1 Token of Achievement for minimum participation PER event.

    I fully support the 200k ad to recharge the overload timer.
    Good ad sink, good dmg boost.
    You're a tryhard with more ad than time ? > recharge it
    You're a player that would rather spend ad someplace else ? > don't recharge it

    Agreed about the recharge on the overload enchant, would be really useful, a way to remove ad from the game and not have to jealously guard the minutes remaining.

    Would absolutely Love not having to hold onto 8+ overloads of the same kind, would like to hear a reply before the event ends so we know we can safely pick up one of each overload.

    Well it seems nice, if you can do it, allready saw people say they can't finish it... what kind of an event is that, if even 10 or 20 % this not can do.. ? Another thing in Neverwinter that waste my time and that's too bad....
  • greywyndgreywynd Member, NW M9 Playtest Posts: 7,150 Arc User
    How do you know if it is a waste of your time unless you try?
    I'm not looking for forgiveness, and I'm way past asking permission. Earth just lost her best defender, so we're here to fight. And if you want to stand in our way, we'll fight you too.

    I can't "finish it" but I am not after an ugly horse. I wouldn't mind getting some other items. But it is a fun solo event. I still jump in there a few times.

    "My suggestion would be to get rid of the whole Soul Contract thing. Many people are at least somewhat religious and the is a real turn off for us. There is no functional reason for it in the game. "

    You play a game with gods. Stop bringing real life religion nonsense into this fantasy world.

    Why would a company that is desperate for customer risk offending customers with a "Soul Contract". Cryptic needs all the customers it can get.

    Well, why would anyone in their right mind even give this "soul contract" a second thought?
    The last time i checked you would have to sign these kind of "contracts" with your real name in your own blood...

    What's next? People complaining about animal cruelty, because the mounts on display in Protectors Enclave have no fitting stable and food/water, or why is there no option to feed our companions? I mean, even when they're hardly usefull these days, they still have to eat, right?

    But by all means, grab your torches and pitchforks folks, and find your own worthy "cause" to complain about in a GAME...

    "Get a life."
