Hello my name is Crafker.
And i have some great idea's how to improve the Pve combat of neverwinter.
Me and my friend Djlovedrop have been discussing how we could improve the Pve.
And we were thinking of some harder TACTICAL boss fights for example, instead of just having a boss
and spawning alot of adds to make it " hard ".
What we were thinking was, to get tactics into this game, something like. Everytime the boss goes down with 25% hp, he will go into a different phase, with some new abilities, that you HAVE to dodge, or where you need the great teamwork to do the boss.
Honestly the Pve gets boring because of the way bosses is made.
I hope someone from the Perfectworld staff will see this, please support this Thread if you agree.
comment with your thougths about the idea's.
Thanks and have a nice day!

There is way more fun in a tactical boss fight, than killing the mobs and boss, dodging a few skills.
What would damage players then?
Imagine any boss without adds.
ANY.
What have we got? An ogre mob. Thats it. Only mentals can't dodge red areas and all your tactics gets stripped to the current bosses just without adds. With how combat and mobs are designed I don't really see how it would be done.

Die in a fire.
The bosses just don’t seem to have the "Boss" feel to them especially with all the cheap tactics and exploits people use to do them.
It would be nice like you said if bosses did have phases or at least had some kind of ability other than "Mass Spawn Adds".
Idk were this skilled pve in this game is you mention the only instance I haven’t done is castle Never, so maybe its there but even if it is that’s 1 dungeon from all of them...
But thats just my opinion, not saying you have to agree with that.
But setting up ur spells, theorycrafting is in every game ive played so its not really unique to this.
Not saying that the game is bad it has potential it just feels meh at the moment like no actual effort was put in to them just stick loads of adds in done.
same just my opinion:)
Meh, that's what got me bored with WoW. Get DBM, do what it says when, sleep through boss fights. Never been a fan of Simon Says of Death boss fights. In D&D, bosses (and even the whole idea of "boss fights" don't really exist) rarely have "phases", unless you count bloodied for some, they have skills they use, and attack who they want. There was also nothing i remember of "aggro" being in D&D, the head baddie went after who they wanted.
I'd personally love it if someone found a way for bosses in MMOs to learn from fights, so tactics would have to change, you couldn't just do the same every time. Boss sees too many healers, goes for them, as they will keep the damage dealers up. That sort of thing. I know the AI isn't even close to that yet, but can you imagine a raid boss or whatever that seems smart enough to be controlled by a person? I remember an interview with a WoW dev, when someone asked why raid bosses aren't controlled by a dev every so often, and they replied that the fight would be short, they would kill all the healers first, then dps, and then tanks.
The meaning of this thread is to support the improvement of the game by handing out idea's to the dev's. Just want it to be more complicated and more difficult.
Maybe we have been in the same try.
Honestly the whole PvE is boring me to death already. Every "boss" fight, be it solo, skirmish or dungeon, is just the boss spamming AoEs around the room while tons of adds spawn endlessly. Sadly this seems to be the whole direction for PvE content, i presume copy&paste was far easier than designing real content. Most other MMOs get boring quite fast, there is just only so much different stuff you can implement into the game, but NW absolutely beats them all with the laziest content design i have ever seen.
The vile dragon is especially "fun" at the point where you get the two elite mystics that out-heal any damage we could do to them.
I guess i will get to 60 in our 2-3 player team and never touch NW again, unless cryptic decides to patch actual content into the game.
I too wouldn't mind less emphasis on adds and more on actually fighting the boss, but they seem to like the combo of healer, rogue tanking and killing the boss and everyone else managing the adds.
I just don't see it happening.
cant call it beta when the game already accepts cash shop purchases and there will be no character wipe. calling it open beta is a lame attempt to protect themselves from people pointing out whats wrong with this game.
D'Brickashaw Ferguson says it's in beta. D'Brickashaw Ferguson > you.
