At the moment I'm only interested in AD and fleece - so I queue solo and vote for leave at bronze level, but from time to time there are 3 or more voting for staying and I happily fight with them to the end - no big deal. Perhaps the amount of gold runs would increase if there would be an official feedback from cryptic…
-
Thank you for your input - I will try it that way. Many people finished their grind already and because of that there are hopefully more sites to upgrade.
-
For me writings are the problematic resource too, because I hate standing around and spamming "pls invite ship HE" (I feel like a leech doing so), but that was a decision I made and I have to bear the consequences. To be fair, they gave another slower option to get them by upgrading dig sites but during my playtime it's…

Ah ok, I never saw it that way (and as far as I know, the store never was restricted to lookbox items), but you presented a good and consistent view of the trade bar store. Just wanted to throw in an idea for the influence bottleneck that would be advantageous to Cryptic.
-
After taking the wards from the tarmalude trade bar, that could be a good place for a influence booster. For example a wand that doubles the amount of influence on the account for 1 hour (of course for a reasonable amount of trade bars).

They will address the botting problem with quartermaster enchantments the same way they did it with dragon hoard enchantments. http://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/neverwinter/#/discussion/1216931/maze-engine-preview-patch-notes-nw-62-20160523a-3 "Quartermaster's Enchantment: Similar to the Dragon Hoard Enchantment, the bonus…

I think the non-rng solution for power points quite fair and if they had to pick a zone - sharandar is the best zone. They will scale it down from 70 so newcomers can do it daily during leveling from 60-70. Because of bad rng many of my alts have only about 3 pp, now they can catch up. I look forward running the quests…
-
I think the reason to adjust the lol-set should be clear to Cryptic after analyzing their key/vip sales after the release of the baby-owlbear. Normally many dps would jump for a companion that has the potential to increase their damage - but because the lol-set is too good most will stay away from the new companion. The…
-
After the leadership nerf I thought they would cut all costs too, but Cryptic looks at it another way - the zen shop prices seem to be set in stone and are the upper limit for cost reductions. Because they didn't reduce cost of their zen-shop items and because they want their zen-shop companions, mounts, ... to be the most…
-
@clonkyo1 - Why should people come to the forum and wondering about their wrongdoings - or are you implying all people are doing so many forbidden things, they even can't remember them. For me the problem is the grey zone - players with alts, who used leadership to generate AD's were called "exploiters" by the lead…
-
I collected on 24 chars daily and got a nice email to take a 7 day break from neverwinter. A little bit sad, because I was looking forward to winterfest for months and enjoyed the tension during opening of the present - so now, there are no nice companions, no retrain tokens, no free transmutions, ... and on top of that…
-
@macjae - you're correct, botting and exploiting is not the same. The reason behind the question was a cryptic invitation to take the next 7 days a timeout and to look for other games. Besides regularily praying on several chars it could of course also be the fact that I fetched starlight parcels on all my alts.
-
Hint for Cryptic - even in PVE class balance is not irrelevant: How much interest do you expect from damagedealer chars (non-gws of course) for the new damage increasing companion "Siege Master"? Why should anyone increase his/her damage for at most 4%, if the own damage is only a fraction of a gwfs (at most 50%).
-
There is 1 main difference in people's past and current perception, that leads to lengthy discussions. Is a class overpowered if there is 1 build (using broken/overpowered stuff) that is overpowered? If Cryptic would correct overperforming stuff immediately (like SW puppets, lol-set, broken HV set during lfg 4cw CN ...)…
-
I think it's in the interest of the game to change the dps-food-chain every 2-3 mods - it brings new builds, new point of view, humbleness to some classes, .... My main, a CW, was too good for too many mods; the GWF had 3 mods he could go crazy - I think that is enough and I hope his time will be over after mod 8 and…
-
I'm supporting that idea too - at the moment I ignore all reinforcement kits - not enough value for the ADs. Interesting that there are still people supporting the cost structures, but after reading " Legendary weapon "whit 2xRP on it" - is giving now "4x RP on Event" löl how ridiculous is it" - I'm not sure if he/she is…
-
That was a very interesting post - after reviewing your numbers I understand the poor cost structure in game. "In October, after the exploits were addressed, and the new AD sources were in place, the average was 60,000 AD per player" There is a big difference between "average AD per player" and "AD of average player". In a…
-
Probably you are right, at the moment there is so little to do - done all t1 and t2 dungeons so many times - that I can only see the problems in SH and the gating. Hopefully the next mods bring enough to do, so that SH was only a temporary thing to keep us occupied during 1 mod, to drain certain people of their wealth and…
-
Cryptic is always free to do what they want - but their holy crusade against small guilds and their focus on large guilds is single minded and probably makes them loose profit. It would be interesting to know their strategy and on what numbers they base it. - Is group pressure in large guilds so high Cryptic earns much…
-
I think urabask is right. Cryptics key strategy at the moment seems to be to increase the value of lockboxes directly (more valued prices) and indirectly (interesting stuff in tarmalude tradebar) and generate revenue with it by selling more keys and vip. We are still waiting for many AD-cost reductions and they are…
-
I vote against an increase, because it would make the gap between large guilds and small guilds even larger. Cryptic would adjust their crazy grind numbers (influence, ad, equipment, ...) to the largest guilds or would have an excuse to think the actual numbers are ok. As a member of a small guild of 20 active players, we…
-
At the moment in our guild runs a gwf does 1.5x-2x the damage of other equally geared damage dealers (cw,hr,tr) in t1/t2 dungeon runs. The opposite situation was true in past mods, the cw did 2x the damage of everyone else and hr,gwf, ... felt useless that time, that was a terrible situation too, so it's nothing new.…
-
I hope Cryptic changes the fixed prices of SH, companions, boons, transmutations, off-hand feats, ... soon - specially the AD sinks in SH have to be addressed by Cryptic - this is the responsibility of the producer. And I'm very disappointed they don't act (reading the last patch notes), because smaller/medium guilds stop…
-
I'm sorry you lost some zen/ad, especially if you are a newer player who couldn't profit directly (farming yourself) or indirectly (selling stuff in ah for high prices) of the leadership ads. I didn't like the leadership changes BUT they did inform the community before the 2xRP event and that was quite fair. I thought, the…
-
That would be a good addition. I remember the time the dragonborn race was new and I ran spellplague - during the fight at the end-boss I always confused the ugly dragonborn in my party with the adds and tried to push him into the lake.
-
I understand PVP players not using leadership that applaud the removal of leadership AD. I don't understand PVE players not using leadership applauding. At the moment you progress your toon because of leadership farmers. You can farm elol - win the artifact - sell it for 1.6mio AD - buy 16 gmops and progress your toon. In…
-
I think it's a strategic decision by the producer to make RP for artifact equipment as scarce as possible (nerf DH, nerf HE in IWD, Leadership lvl 24 task is latest and longest RP task, simple dailies in dr/sh/wod/iwd give not peridots/resonance stones ...). For some reason I don't understand, they gave up the war against…
-
There are so many excellent suggestions in this thread, what should be changed in the near future - I could only repeat them. I can only add to the discussion by describing my next actions (maybe the reaction of many casual players). - exchange my zen for AD (zax will probably fall under 500 in some weeks) - stop spending…
-
I went for the val set and put too much refine points in it to change to the lol set. It's like a lottery - I've bet on a nerf of the lol set and I lost, of course I'm jalous but have to accept it. Probably the dev have to change the lol set in the future, otherwise they would have created a similar situation as the set…
-
I think the difficult in T1, T2 could be ok, if they would implement some dungeon content for Not-Nearly-BIS people to improve to T1 level. I have the feeling there is an entry-level T1 missing. In module 0 not all T1 and T2 dungeons were equal - you started with epic CT - epic CC - ... - CN and that was a good difficulty…
