Major updates on the way!

Hey everyone,

We've got some great news for you! While we've been working hard to address the majority of critical bugs and exploits, we've also been working on some fun stuff based on your feedback! Throughout Open Beta, we've been listening very closely to your feedback and hope to have some updates going live very soon.

At this very moment we are putting the final touches on a build that incorporates a ton of improvements to the various systems in Neverwinter. Thanks to all the helpful feedback we've received from our community, we've got updates coming for PVP, the Queue System, the Auction House, Gateway, the user interface, and game performance. Additionally, we've got tons of fixes coming regarding quests, Dungeon Delves, and rewards.

That's not all! Every class will see big changes in regards to their mechanics. Aside from fixing many of the bugs associated with class powers, we've done a considerable amount of rebalancing across the board. Expect a high volume of changes to damage, mitigation, cooldowns, stacking, power synergies, durations, and knockbacks, interrupts, threat, bonuses, and pretty much everything else!

But, we're not there yet! After we deploy this patch, we'll still need to collect feedback to ensure that we've met our goals and performed the updates that our players have asked for the most. Once the Patch Notes go live, feel free to comment on the thread to let us know your thoughts!

Thanks again so much for your helpful feedback. We'll see you in Neverwinter! :)

~The Neverwinter Team

Update: you can take a look at some of these changes here! :)

    With all the big class changes, will we be getting Respec tokens?

    I honestly hope that with said changes to class abilities and rebalancing that you include free respecs? Or are they going to make us pay $6 to make our characters playable again after said rebalancing and ability changes? I mean, not that I would doubt that Cryptic would pass up a chance to gouge yet more money from thier player base, I was just kinda hoping, you know?

    If it makes the cleric enjoyable to play in dungeons then I will be most impressed.

    I am very excited to hear about the upcoming changes, I'm sure they'll be great. However, one question presents itself: as with any balancing pass, will we be alotted a respec token to update our various builds?

    Respecs are a convenience item.

    Exciting and possibly problematic, since those of us who feel we have created optimum builds for our preferred styles of play may now feel that we're being penalized. I will be cautiously optimistic as I wait for more information.

    With changes to classes, should we expect a free respec? Or are they not that expansive?

    We better see some free Respec tokens passed out if I have to change my build around. I'm not blowing 6$ on each character every time you decide to nerf or buff abilities

    They already are, so I don't know if it's on their "to do list."

    Hell... it's 'bout time.

    PLEASE give free respecs, or reduce their price.
