Ah, nice. Idris' chest should be working again. And, I like that whatever is on top of the need/greed list stays there, instead of the latest one picked up sneaking in there.

xxmantaraxx · January 2014

So good to see that loot roll bug going away and the idris chest fixed! Great patch, thanks for the hard work!!!

mh0ram · January 2014

Thank you for fixing Idris chest, I hope you didn't neglect to also fix the exit.

imsmithy · January 2014

Awesome , Con artist and Shield maiden , sure wish that it didn't cost an arm and a leg to upgrade though , I love how the upgraded Con artist looks , also need/greed fixed is good and Idris finally fixed xD sweet.

celticgamer0 · January 2014

I enjoy the fact PWE has fixed the Need/Greed system and we can finally get those two companions, so I really hate to complain about one thing I was hoping they'd fix. The fact that Astral Diamond cost to upgrade a companion is still a bit ridiculous and would like to see it reduced.

hiddenfate · January 2014

All fixes for stuff that doesn't affect me

forest meditation ;-;

duthgar1976 · January 2014

and nothing about the GWF graphic glitch with weapons? tired of running around with an axe that looks like Stevie Wonder put together.

truvano · January 2014

First upgrade for your companion costs almost as much as a Lesser Vorpal. That's pretty ridiculous.

elusiveonen7 · January 2014

They can only handle a little bit at a time guys, no need to fill every thread with complaints.

synslaughter · January 2014

User Interface: Resolved a few cases where multiple Need or Greed rolls would cancel one of the rolls preventing proper loot distribution. -- Will this also repair this very odd (and problematic) issue of new rolls being placed atop the pile, while first items are bumped down the list (making for erroneous rolls in the rush?)

Content and Environment: Throne of Idris Dungeon Delve chest can once again be claimed when the event is active. -- Yes, thank you, and a thousand more thank-yous! Now my guild can continue helping our newer 60s get their T1 gear.

And thanks for the other repairs, too. I'd imagine they'll make a lot of people very happy.

zebular · January 2014

. . .Wonderful patch notes! I'd like to especially convey my gratitude and thanks for the following, specifically!

Resolved a few cases where multiple Need or Greed rolls would cancel one of the rolls preventing proper loot distribution.

A Scrying Stone in Tower District is no longer covered in collision.

Throne of Idris Dungeon Delve chest can once again be claimed when the event is active.

Sword Coast Adventures: Kossuth power dice, Tempus power dice and Lolth power dice have had many of their combat-faces improved. Any result that would have previously shown "Combat 4" will now show "Combat 6" instead.
Sword Coast Adventures: Tear in Reality now requires fewer dice to complete to bring it more in line with other challenges.
Sword Coast Adventures: Added an option in the Help menu to attempt to unstick the current trial.
Sword Coast Adventures: Added a potential fix to prevent the dice getting into a stuck state.

The Companions Con Artist and Dwarven Shield Maiden are now appropriately for sale for 2 Gold at the Emporium.

The boxes rewarded from Leadership tasks have slightly improved chances to drop refining stones.

When multiple Need or Greed rolls appear the order they appear will not change to reduce unintentional player choices on rolls.

evalira · January 2014

Nice to see that the loot roll bug is fixed. This thing got me kicked from the group because they thought I intentionally pressed Need in a greed run. I hope the people in the group that kicked me can see this and feel just a little bit guilty and now realise I was telling the truth. I got absolutely nothing out of that run other than your abuse. Hope you enjoyed your profit from selling GF's sword. Peace.

So I got a Green mark of potency from a green barrel of goods , have these always had a chance to drop from leadership chests and barrels , I'm asking because I only ever got the white marks before today , also if they are a new drop do blue marks drop from blue chests and purple ones from purple chests ( I'm guessing no but I thought I'd ask ) ?

. . .They did, but it was very rare of a chance. During Preview Testing of M2, I got quite a few from the green barrels I tested there but then when M2 came to live, I had only gotten one and very few pearls even. Just this morning already, I have gotten 11 pearls and a couple green marks. I'm not sure about the blue and purple containers but back on Preview before M2 launched, I got several green marks from blue and purple chests. I have gotten zero since it went to live but haven't done any tasks yet that give those boxes since last night's patch.

nwnghost · January 2014

Something that didn't make the patch notes but is a great change:

AH lists by lowest buyout again

theshadowbreaker · January 2014

Defend the Temple and Ebon Downs Complete achievements complete properly.

It isn't retroactive or maybe not corrected at all. Will this be fixed so chars who did it couple of times when it was broken get achievement and title? I can't return to this skirmish and now I must wait for call to arms?

cpendlet · January 2014

It looks like they fixed some of the sorting "issues" with the AH (default sorting as most expensive first and having to sort it to most expensive first so you could then sort it again to get it to least expensive first - very annoying when the AH is slow).

nobowshow · January 2014

Seems like a good update!
Great work!
Hope to see much more updates in the future!

Especially updates that removes glitches and bugs

brenissimo · January 2014

Idris and loot rolls fixed! Thank you very much!! =D

wzeros · January 2014

Well i think is very slow update reason lots of monts for fix bug and problems in this server for is The end of neverwinter is coming and there wont be sales years later to bring money to the devs because they were too greedy. Instead of making a good singleplayer and multiplayer experience like in the past they let greed over rule what they should have made need more experience on games sorry for my comment for i play many games from this company and iam disappointed i hope can do better work in the nexts updates

lightbringer1102 · January 2014

the patch is obviously not working , its giving me an error 36 lol

Try to run the game as administrator , also silly question but you haven't run out of space on your hard drive have you?

lightbringer1102 · January 2014

19.8 gb free ? Why?

lightbringer1102 · January 2014

i ran it as administrator and it patched correctly . thanks
still dont understand why i had to run it as administrator or disk space ?

The tooltips on the chests are now fixed to tell you what kinds of marks can drop from them. Barrels show 1 green mark, not 2 white, so that appears to be changed.

nwnghost · January 2014

Disable your antivirus/antimalware and you won't get error 36. Those programs always tend to lock files.

almireldignor · January 2014

I love the loot roll fix, but I hope they fix the campaign window UI bug soon. From what I've heard, a good portion of players can't even do sharandar or dread ring anymore because everything is stuck at 0:00.

EDIT: Just logged into the game, saw that it's fixed. Not sure if its a ninja fix or what, but you guys are awesome!

nazskul · January 2014

I would like to bring to your attention that some of the GWF's weapons are missing pieces to them, the most notable to me was the Dread Legion Greatsword, i attempted to see if it had something to do with the weapon enchantment but taking or changing it didnt matter. The weapon seems to function but its appears to be missing the large blade on the end
