    Fix how weak the hero of north companion is before you release more packs please..... Also take down the founders pack. This is stupid that even after release they have them up.

    LMFAO , you expected a companion that shot lazor beams? just get a stone or a cat. These are the only valid companions for now.

    I know right... I fell for it hook line and sinker. Thought I'd get to create a new elven alt. Waited for the email that said it was in my account and ..... doh... nothing. That's why I came here to see what the deal was. Oh well. More pre-orders to add to my other pre-orders. :)

    What tier is the Unicorn mount? Is the Stone of Earth a companion or something else? I'm surprised dye packs aren't included.
    At 60 bucks, it's probably blue.

    Nope, it's purely cosmetic. I haven't noticed any actual benefit from the racials and there aren't any classes that would benefit from both stat bonuses (either pair). That's for the best, though, there isn't really anything you could give them that would be both worth over $100 AND wouldn't trigger mass howling of "PAY TO WIN!". This way no one can accuse us of anything other than paying for digital bling.

    OTOH they look cool (too bad I *think* they're going to put in "regular" drow, can't imagine how they'd look different), the battle spider purple mount saves a lot of time being available as soon as you hit 20, the blue weapon saves time getting to 20, you get three extra slots to make profession farmers if nothing else and the huge stack of AD does help if you've disposable income. I haven't maxed out a character so I can't tell how well the end-game enchants or the purple item box works.

    If you've got to pick a "p2w" pack, though, just get the $60 one. You still get a 110% mount and the blue weapon to get you through the first 20 levels of a new character, bag space, an extra character slot *and* a better companion than the panther for leveling if you don't feel like settling for a cleric companion.

    Don't get me wrong, I like the game and I'm willing to gamble some disposeable income (I wish I'd done so for CO and STO at the start) but the founder pack is a little underwhelming in some places. A purple companion should not be less useful than a blue!


    The purple weapon sucks and it can't be sold. It's in my bank just looking pretty. lol

    Per the FAQ:

    What rank is the Dawn Unicorn Mount from the Knight of the Feywild Pack, and can that rank be increased through training?

    The Dawn Unicorn Mount is Rank 3, at max speed, and does not need to be trained.

    No I wanted him to drop nukes!! But on a serious note, I at least expected him to be valid. His main move takes FOREVER and misses or I killed the mob before he could get to them.

    Can you give an option so that we can buy pack from Ultimate game card or the same as them

    Most important, will Foundry reward system change (kind of a must)? And will bots be taken care off (an absolute must)?

    Going to hold off buying any packs. The pack website does not describe anything in detail, like the race or companion stats. So far it is looking like a rather weak value for money.

    Make a god **** archer class not this <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font>!!!!!!!!!
    Support in this game is terrible.
    You're focused on releasing new **** instead of fixing grame breaking issues and adding content THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THERE FROM THE START!
    Useless game administrators.

    Why do people in Europe get charged so much more than people in the US? 50 Euros is equal to $65 dollars so US players get the Knight set for 60 dollars and EU players get it for the equivalent of 65 dollars , not very fair considering they are virtual goods ...

    It's the same for us in Australia we have to pay the equal in Australian to what the US amount would be and it's always more :(

    So if you say bought $200 of zen you can't use that to get the pack? Yay! So what you are saying is never ever buy zen because anything they release as a pack will be direct cash only and come with AD you can use to buy zen in game (which lets you buy stuff you will already have from the packs anyways).
    Edit Meaning a mount, companion and extra bag which is tiny and if you want to get things done the best you can, it will need to be replaced anyhow.

    Overpriced as always. Should me $5 at most for ANY digital item. But you guys have $30 for a single mount or companion? You're joking right? I could buy a whole game for that price.

    I'm sure a lot of people feel the same way about expensive cars. I know there are cars that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, but that's "the price of a house" to me, not "the price of a car". IMO, cars are supposed to cost in the $10-25k range. However, that doesn't mean that the companies that charge hundreds of thousands of dollars for their cars are wrong. After all, there are several companies that have been doing this for decades and are still in business. So for them, the business model works.

    Mounts and companions in Neverwinter are much the same way. You can get them free or with gold (which is still technically "free" since you don't have to spend any real money to get gold). However, these are the "lower end models" that aren't as nice, and don't have the same prestige as the more expensive models.

    Only time will tell if the prices in Neverwinter really are too high - if enough people are buying items at current prices to support Cryptic & PWE's desired profit margin, then the prices are right. And given the number of Inferno and Twilight Nightmares, Armored Spiders, Bears, and Worgs, Displacer Beasts, Honey Badgers, Galeb Duhrs, and other premium purple items I've seen running around the game, it seems so far that the prices are right.

    pretty crewel to people who bought the founder pack and now has to pay for this module and play a free for all game. what the h did I pay for. basically some useless items and handful of ad, the weapon was only good for a few levels and the level 60 weapon is beat by other weapons. this sucks I tell ya

    Real money for the most part provides luxury just like the cars one of the above posters referred to. Luxury in a smoother leveling experience or faster end game items through trading zen for astral diamonds and buying them on ah. The level 60 weapon you get is just that, a luxury. Helps you get in epic dungeons faster and lets you perform a little better at first. If the only way to get the best items was to pay real money then that is pay to win and not many are interested in that.

    Again, i ask thesame question that is being avoided by this Site, why are we not allowed to Buy the Pack using other Payment Method, why are you forcing ppl to pay thru Paypall and Krill, you have other option to pay in your Zen Wallet, why not thesame option apply here.

    Maybe I'm having one of those moments, but is that pre-order banner just for the packs or is the whole module going to require purchase?

    The module will be free for all; the packs just contain goodies. The $60 pack has a mount, a companion, an outfit, access to Moon Elves, and more. Without the pack you will still get access to Sun Elves and the whole rest of the actual story/content/quests.. just not the SPARKLY UNICORN MOUNT! :D<3

    Well yeah I can sense that you have a fair amount of money which is ok and I would not call me poor either. I don't own a fancy car since I can lend my relatives car as long as I pay for fuel. That said I own 2 small apartments in my countrys capitol area and they are worth together 250 000+ euro. I still got a big debt(mortage) for the newer apartment to pay. However since I as a side business rent apartments so I get income from that also and I have no debt for my first apartment.

    I have chosen to play this game for free though my point was that I do not consider myself poor. The Unicorn does not disturb me unless it has faster movement then 110% speed. Yes there are many cooler mounts however I am content with the idea that one day I will buy with AD traded ZEN the fastest horse lmount that gives 110% speed and that cost 2500 ZEN.

    I would not call myself a very hardcore player for example I know your crafting skills are better then mine. I have not reached level 20 yet in any crafting profession and I have not earned 2500 ZEN yet. Whatever I am confident that I can get the fastest mount speed before 2014 at least even though it takes some time.

    I think pricing is ok and whether you to play this game for free or pay does not matter as long as you enjoy the game:).
