Um... I just created another character on preview and I noticed there's no "Cute" expression, and my CW currently has this expression.
If I change my race, dislike it and want to change it back, am I unable to make a character with the exact same appearance I had before? What happened with the "Cute" expression?
Panderus, would you please consider changing "Kill 1000 NPCs" gauntlgrym pvp campaign task? By lowering the amount of npcs we need to kill? This is a real problem for me and other players, this task requires too much time for an average player to complete.

Killing 1000 NPC doesn't make sense when it's supposed to be a PvP campaign, please consider a change to this. It's by far one of the most annoying and not fun tasks in the whole campaign.
since we have race change token can u guys consider changing human 3% defense to 3% damage resistance?
Human is a decent choice already, at least compared to any other race apart from a Halfling. All this would do is ensure PvP characters are all Halflings or Humans.
Halfling's bonus is too good for PvP so it would seem easiest to alter that rather than having to re-balance every other racial.
Your appearance will be preserved if you choose the same race, there will be your appearance preset that is selected by default (fix isnt in this build yet).
It even shows your current armor the whole time instead of the basic armor first level characters start with.
Will this actually preserve original character appearances? When I go to the Tower of Alteration, after I leave it once and load back in, it does in fact load me with my current slider settings/hair color/et al... But under the new, hideous system that I frankly can't stand. The middle instance of the following screenshot is exactly what I fear might happen to original characters:
(Left to right: Original, new system with original settings, new system heavily edited from my current settings; these screenshots were from Mod 3 preview days to illustrate the appearances of and issues that existed(And still exist) with the new char creation.)
So that middle one is technically my appearance preset; but besides being absolutely hideous, is not at all my actual original appearance. Any clarification on that? A way to skip the appearance editing step?
And I nth the 'change the 1000 NPCs' thing. The NPCs in GG don't spawn often enough or last long enough to make this even remotely a sane task, and Delzoun pretty much can't do it at all.
Bug: TR's walk animation appears to have disappeared and been replaced with a slowed-down version of their in-combat run animation. The class also now stops running with a bizzare knee-bending thing that may just be a result of the missing walk animation, but looks ludicrous regardless. Please fix it.
Panderus , the 'change now' option is still missing when you change characters and we are forced to wait the entire 15 seconds , I know you said you would get it put back but just giving you a nudge incase you forgot.

There is a new Race Change Token available in the Zen Market and at the Character Selection Screen. Polymorph yourself to change Race, Ability Score choices, Appearance and Character Name. This is currently free on the Preview server for testing purposes.
whattt.!! holy fail. game over.

Is it intended that the timer to switch between characters can't be skipped? The "cancel" and "change now" buttons are gone, you can still cancel a logout by hitting esc but no other way to bypass it. The old buttons show up for logging out and you can still exit the game with no timer.
I currently have 8 characters, this will add 120 seconds to the time it takes me to cycle through them for invoking and such that I do once a day. Thats 120 seconnds I'm going to be just staring at a timer waiting for it to tick down for no reason then to watch it tick down.
Yeah panderus said it was removed by accident a couple of patches ago and he said he would try to make sure it was added back , I reminded him a bit earlier .
For those that don't want to wait 15 secs to change char, just use the log out button as it is bugged as well and actually just returns you to the char select screen 90% of the time.
Oh and kudos to cryptic for the race change / re-roll token. It should be obvious that if folks were willing to face the banhammer for this, it should be part of the game for those willing to pay.
And last but not least, I hear that the elven battle enchantment is still needing that long ago promised fix for the R10 version. Perhaps cryptic might look into this?

Bug: Race Change Token currently not working. When I click it, my character goes invisible and it does not advance to the next character creation slide.
Can we please have the old character appearance features back, I would love to change my ability scores but I don't want my characters to look like plastic barbie dolls...
I appreciate the effort the devs are putting in to this (though the CW and GWF nerfs are <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font>) - I have to ask this: Why does the Preview server continue to crash when loading with an AMD 8 core CPU? Working around this issue by setting CPU affinity or going into the computer's BIOS to disable 4 cores is pathetic. I hope to hell this is solved before Module 4 goes live.

bug: rogue walk animation is currently a slow motion combat run animation. also, you cannot change characters immediately anymore, you get stuck waiting for 15 seconds.

I replied earlier, but your current appearance is saved if you choose the same race, it will show up as an extra appearance preset and will be the default (current isnt the default on this build).
Thank god another nerf to PvE TR powers. Freaking Wicked Reminder was known to be broken making TRs overpowered in dungeons. And also keeps the TR nerf streak going, 4 mods and counting :P
seriously though, well done on the other quality of life changes. Just the dye stacking is going to free up a lot of space.

No news on fixing the deleted companions or the issue many have with the preview shard not loading - disappointing
So what are the requirements for the new dungeons? and can anyone show what the new TR armors are like?
This should really go on Live ASAP, it's already hard doing IwD content with a GF, this is really annoying...
really?
It can be done with 2 ppl (we did 2 CW):D 0 challenge with new module...
Btw. I finished draco from 25% alone with CW

14-16k gs CW with p.vorp
Thanks , can't wait till hometime to give it a try myself xD

Why is it a fail? it's a great feature ( or it will be once it is working xD)
