What is endgame like in Neverwinter? I tried looking through the FAQ sticky but didn't see anything specifically on endgame.

I have a level 60 and I do foundry quests. Speak for yourself.
ur sig explains it all LOL
Explains what? That you're wrong? I agree.
I am level 60 and do Foundry missions.You must be looking through the wrong windows.
If your endgame is to get as much money as you can get, you forget to enjoy the money and there nothing to enjoy if you do not know where to spend. As for T2, forget about it, most of them end in fails and after doing a few you will be tired of repeating the same HAMSTER with different people going at war because someone Needed on something.
I'm sorry but... there's much to tell about this game, it was ill conceived to start with.
Nope, he's right.
Explains I'm not part of your % of the population who does pointless stuff in game. I rather run a T2 and sell a single piece for 1 million astral diamonds than waste my time playing a content that's non-rewarding and has nothing to do with the developers of the game.
Common sense people.
No developers can push out content that fast. Thanks god we got the most powerful tools for replayable. It's like Warcraft 3 Editor. Now all we need is someone willing to make Neverwinter Dota and Hero Seige and we're in style.
Saying that Foundry is some sort of solution to the lack of endgame content is madness.
What is this "Castle Never" that was posted on the first page, is that a foundry quest?
IT IS BETA ALL THE CONTENT ISNT OUT YET!!!!! There is alot of end game stuff YET to come....Stop rushing to 60 and complaining no content in a game thats in BETA. Give it some time more stuff will be released soon.
the top teir epic dungeon.... its hard
No, that's not just end-game.
- Huge amounts of trash mobs between bosses
- Bosses have no autoattack damage. All but a *very* few do nothing but slow, easily avoided windup attacks. You don't need a tank on them. Just a rogue or two who can see red and move his character
- Every boss has hundreds of adds, all of which spend the entire fight chasing the cleric
- The challenge has nothing to do with the tank and the boss, but whether CW's can tie up the adds enough so the cleric can kite without dying. Rather, so the cleric can kite without dying too often for the in-combat rez
- Alternately, run two clerics and a mix of rogues/ wizards, and most fights are very easy, as the clerics' self-heal debuff is therefore not much of a factor
If that sounds boring, it is. That's a real shame, because the combat mechanics are great.
If you're looking for purples to throw on the auction house and bosses with zerg-like adds then the foundry isn't for you, which it sounds like it might not be for this guy.
If however you're interested in stand-alone story campaigns and aren't afraid to read a little bit through some heavy text conversations with npcs then there are quite a few foundry quests out there that are great. Some that are short and sweet, some funny, and some that are surprisingly well planned out and unfortunately only limited in scope by the tools provided.
As a level 60 I still go through the foundry list and look for new quests or just go back and redo old ones that I've completed since some have different responses to your choices. Would I consider the foundry 'end game content' as some people have labeled it? No, I wouldn't. But it is a way for people to enjoy the work of the many creative people in the community.
If you're looking for actual content that is challenging then you're out of luck. The game is flooded with CW's and TR's to the point most pugs will end up disbanding. If you managed to get a high enough gear score at 60 then you can probably get a group of people together for some zerg runs to bosses while avoiding the majority of mobs in the dungeon. End game for a DC and high GS players is a great way to stock pile AD's, but if you're not already there then you're going to be faced with a lot of frustration trying to get a single run in epic dungeons. You can try to organize in zone chat, but that is spammed nonstop at incredible speeds by gold farmers. You can also PvP, but the foundry doesn't let you make maps for it and it gets old quick because there isn't any real character progression through it.
If you're the type of player who likes constant progression then this game isn't for you. Unless you want to play a cleric then you'll get in on pretty much any dungeon you want, have items donated to you for a higher GS and people will love you. If you play a rouge, CW,GF and god forbid a GFW then you're not going to have a lot of fun with the horrible queue system in place.
The problem with the queue system is you NEED a cleric for every single epic dungeon, but at the same time teams will be created without a cleric. I have been on teams of full CW's before at queue pop. If somebody drops or gets kicked then the queue will ignore the fact you don't have a cleric and just fills with whatever is available. On top of all of that if you leave a group that doesn't have a cleric, reenter the queue then chances are your queue will be bugged and you might end up with a cleric this time around, but no way in hell to get to where they're at.
end game is a complete utter mess at the moment and has no real appeal to it for anybody looking for charcater progression minus the 1 percentile of pre established groups. If you're content with player made content then there's plenty of that, but you're not going to get anything worthwhile there...
so you admit you're a sheep in constant need of a shepherd?
The foundry is quite fun if you're able to actually enjoy the creativity of the rest of the community.

There's also no endgame for soloist's (unless you count foundry as "endgame" for them). Wouldn't mind a solo version of epic dungeon's or just dungeons in a similar structure that the story quest dungeon's were setup while you were leveling to the cap.
Put in lowered drop rate for epic gear and some some other compromises for doing it solo (Maybe), adjust the difficulty enough so it's soloable.
Just a few ideas and examples.
fix the queue system please
