    Yay! My GWF can finally complete Filial Villainy... now that she's doing Dread Ring and Sharandar. :P (My neatnik and completionist nature can now be sated.)

    Can't wait to check out the new event! I like the new variety there, too. Less grind-y, more adventure-y! That the challenges fit their respective deities is even more cool. Nice touch, there.

    Thanks, guys. Keep up the great work!
    I have the ability to heal you. A shield to protect you. Blades to slay your foes. Magic! So I'm a tiefling, so what? We have a common enemy, and a common goal. Here, you can put ornaments on my horns if it'll put you at ease.

    Oh my God, now I understand why I was always so frustrated with the arcane coffers even with my highest rank gauntlet... I feel betrayed!

    Classes and Balance
    • Guardian Fighters: Animations and FX will now completely play for this class similar to all other classes instead of cutting slightly short.

    Question:

    Does this make the animations last even longer or have they been sped up a bit to compensate?

    Reason I ask is because out of all the classes, Guardians have the longest and slowest animations on their encounter/daily powers. Extending them even further, no matter whether the animation is now complete will surely upset GF players.

    Thank you for the new CotG event and fixes!

    Invocation Gift – When opened, this item resets the cooldown on Invocation and grants you an Ardent Coin*.

    *: It is not intended for players to get more than one Ardent Coin per day.
    does this mean 1 ardent coin per day through invocation and challenge combined?
    OR
    1 from challenge and 1 from invocation for a total of 2 in a day?

    Really...? You go to the effort of giving Brutal enchantments their own icon, but you still won't let us Disable weapon/armor enchantment or Shirt/Pants visuals? And armor enchants of Greater or Perfect still show on characters' legs even when they're bare?

    Is this really too much to ask, that it is ignored patch after patch after patch?

    Enchantment visuals are a issue they want to deal with but they don't have a current schedule for when -

    Because it just requires one of the artists to make up a few icons. Disabling weapon/armor enchantments would require more work from a completely different department.

    After this patch any character in dreadring or trying to enter dreadring crashes me to desktop with error 26836771. I have tried verifying, deleteing error and preference files and loading in safe mode. Nothing works. Anyone else having this issue or has a fix?

    I can't seem to get past the loading screen. I have tried adjusting directx and nvidia with no success yet. I also am told that there is an error in my files yet verification doesn't seem to find the error. The message keeps coming up.

    Also, it seems like I keep downloading patches. Hopefully I can quit downloading and play the game. I am putting playing wow on hold so I can play this game.

    Oh my god...

    THANK YOU CRYPTIC!

    My GWF's sword lines up! If this fixed nothing else it would still be my favorite patch so far just for that!

    Would be nice to be able to log into the game... client goes unrepsonsive on the Neverwinter loading screen. It does this to me with EVERY SINGLE patch, without fail. Nobody can tell me it's my internet, either, since everything else works just fine. Rip and reinstall did nothing to solve this.

    I love the gateway daily awards, though I usually have extremely bad luck with rng, I've managed to roll 20 twice from my 4 rolls so far and I really like those profession resources and enchantment bags you get as reward for that.

    I also like that I can view the epic item collections on gateway and don't have to search the ah or wiki for a specific weapon description, it's all right there. Even though the dark purple text on black background when viewing items by location is unreadable to me.

    Same question here. Hoped they going to buff the GF a bit and now that.

    This happens to me also. Every other online game works fine and reinstalling does nothing to help.

    Close and restart your client. It happens to me too but after doing that it works fine.

    I am experiencing consistently reproducible game client crashes while attempting to join the queue for skirmishes, dungeons etc.

    The queue will find 4 other players, I will be able to hit shift+1 to accept. Then during the loading screen the game client crashes.

    On occasion, after crashing from a queue, restarting the client and verifying all files, I will also experience a crash while attempting to load a normal map.

    I have been experiencing this issue since the latest patch.

    EDIT:

    Just tried queuing on an alt, same account and was able to get into and successfully complete the black lake skirmish. So maybe the problem is limited to my main only.

    EDIT2:

    Was able to successfully queue into domination match. However, queuing for "storming the keep skirmish" still results in crash during map loading.

    EDIT3:

    After crashing in the attempt to queue "storming the keep" in edit 2, I am now crashing in every single attempt to queue for domination.

    EDIT4:

    Tried safe mode, force re-verify, and redownloading a 2gb patch file. None of these had any effect. My guess is that there is a problem with assets associated with 2 maps. "Storming the Keep" and the domination map without the double drop in the beginning.
