Owlbear to the rescue.

I'm assuming you know this, but let's do a quick recap anyway for those who might not. In order to get the Vault of the Nine quest, you have to talk to someone in IWD. You don't have to fight anything, you never have to leave the town. You come through the travel gate, find a guy in an inn, and get the first step of the…

This game has so much potential. I'm one of the "faithful" still hanging on, hoping for that potential to be fulfilled. Levels 1-59 were--and are--fantastic. As many have pointed out, levels 60-70 are a grind fest. At level 70, you need the T2 equipment to complete the T2 dungeons you're running to get the T2 equipment you…

The potential this game has is amazing. The story lines in levels 1-60 are (mostly) interesting to play time and again as people create and level new characters and find different ways to approach them. Even Sharandar, the Dread Ring, and, to a somewhat lesser extent, Icewind Dale and the Well of Dragons, had some good…

I've got a mix of azure and radiant in defense slots, and dark, silvery, azure, and radiant cycling my offense, but I think I'll reconsider a savage or brutal or five. I've got terror for weapon and briartwine for armor, which I like, personally, but. Thanks! This is an immensely helpful thread! :) Edit: The radiant in…

Time to 'fess up... I'm still figuring out what settings work best with the graphics card in my new computer, so it's not as great an image as I'd like. Kali and her blink dog, Spark.

I was starting to wonder if anyone else actually remembered the dark age of the TR that was approximately from partway through mod 2 until a little bit into IWD. You can kind of make up for having the defenses of a weevil by one-shotting things like an iron golem. Having the defenses of a weevil and the fighting skills of…

And then you spend the rest of your time on the game farming for refining stones or for AD to buy refining stones to rank the **** artifacts/weapons/equipment up. Or you fork money over for Zen to stock up on blood rubies and hope like heck that a double-refinement weekend comes up again very, very soon. Where's the fun in…

Well-played. Trying really hard not to laugh like a lunatic in a campus computer lab.
-
That's beautiful. +1 Mine are predictable: 1) The slow death of the solo PvE player. Hey, I only need to break my AD piggy bank and equip rank 400 terror enchantments in every enchant slot ever, but it's totally doable, right? There's the challenge of trying out new playing styles and the adrenaline rush of winning an…

Spinward Rise. Anything near the glider towers, the Kenku camp, and the balloon docks with that quest to kill that one guy (specific, I know, "one guy"). I've gone straight through, I've gone diagonally, and yesterday I tried going completely around the edge, which worked great until I ran into two Owlbears, a treasure…

Sheer wise-you-know-whatery bids me to ask if you have Rosencrantz and Guildenstern yet, and do they die a lot?
-
I have bad puns, over-obvious references, Mercedes Lackey references, a solitary Terry Pratchett reference, some references to my old D&D group, and some I just gave up on. My level 53 Hunter's Fawn of Shiallia: Tender Wolf: Warrl Swashbuckler: Arien Apprentice Healer: The Doctor - And he kind of looks like a young David…

I'm replying while still debating whether or not I'm included in the groups mentioned, so. I don't mind changing how I play my characters; I think it's neat, honestly. I can't be complacent anymore, which is also neat. I think, perhaps, we've seen what happens when the game becomes "log in, invoke, quest, kill, lair, kill,…

Having inadvertently been given the courage to try a second time to transfer my old game installer file from my old computer to my new one (still not sure what happened to said computer), I managed it. Transmute weapons, so eh. I'll admire them when I'm fighting and be quietly jealous of the people who got archons. *wry*…

I liked Mod 6. I've been playing my main toon mostly my way since June 2013, and I wasn't having a good majority of the problems other people were having. However, I got a new computer two weeks ago and was forced to download the ARC Client for the first time ever. After two weeks of having to reload the game about six…

[Enchants] 1) If Tymora's Lucky Enchantment is going to be around, could what it drops scale with level? Because those lucky pouches are more like garbage pouches, really, and I think I may use mine for RP on an artifact. 2) Rank 3 enchantments in level 60+ zones. Why? [Invocation Bonuses] Let's talk about the things…

Likewise. Thank you to the devs for trying to reward the long-time devoted players. While I do have my issues with the new mod, I'm enjoying myself nonetheless. So, seriously, looking forward to the fix. Fleas of a thousand camels in your armpits, exploiters. And every permadaze, permastealth rogue ever on you in PVP.

I tried the DirectX driver fix, but I got the same message about it already being installed. I rolled back my graphics driver. I re-updated my driver. I am currently verifying files for the sixth time today. My sanity may hinge on that command line. ...Nope! Edit: Safe mode. Thank gods.

This is my first MMO and nearly my first action computer game. I'm a casual player. I created my TR in June 2013 and have made and deleted multiple other characters in that time since. She remains my favorite. I've got her backstory written out in my head. The key word in all of this, however, is casual. Until two months…
-
I'm having the same issue. I just set up my new computer, and I've tweaked every possible setting to make sure my firewall lets it through, but no go. Everything is newly updated, as well. Specs are Win 8.1, 4th gen. Intel i5 processor, NVIDIA GeForce GT 705, for the record. I just tried the forced verify, as well, and no…

1) When you get down to it, the issue isn't "nerfing" or "You PvPers just ruined my PvE, go sit in the corner and think about what you've done." It's that the devs fail, over and over, to find a way to have powers and feats work differently when a player is in PvP than when they're in PvE. I don't know coding/programming…
-
Sooo. Those of us who only do PvE and who went with Executioner from the start, but are now eying the concept of mixing feats from all three trees (blasphemy, I know), should pack up and go home? This is exactly what this thread, like every other thread these days, is basically saying.
-
I don't PvP. (Which, seriously, Helping Hand II, where did you come from?) I like PvE. My frustration with balance issues is less on damage and effectiveness and more on "How can I not be a complete drag on these people I am currently fighting with?" I'll be very happy to see GS go away in Mod 6, and I'll be focusing on…
-
FEEDBACK: I am PvE only, if that makes a difference. Oppressive Darkness: I like it, I definitely do, but I also think it might be a little OP. I'm currently at 3 of 4 ranks on it, and almost every minion I've fought (and a couple non!) go right to almost half their HP as soon as I stealth. I'm a happy little damage…
-
YES. Can I drag a few thousand "like" buttons from FB over here? BUG: Vigilance Tasks in Drowned Shore Not a single vigilance quest is registering for my character. I can safely say I've done more than 15 by now, but you'd never know it. As such, I also cannot progress to Xalliana or to Guard Harris behind the Broken Crown…
-
Six modules in, NPCs still hover unnecessarily close. Could we please fix this? Pretty please with a elemental water seed on top?
-
May I make a suggestion? Every time I have eventually come on the forums just to find out that the preview shard is down, the cute little server status indicator is all the while happily shining green at me. I don't know if anyone else has this issue, but isn't the point of the server status indicator to let players know…
-
I finally like playing my rogue again, and I finally don't feel like I have to neglect my schoolwork/friends/cats/entire life to spend a million hours a week on the game to build her gear score up as fast as possible so I can stand a chance at playing without dropping one second into PvE combat. How about we not kick in…
-
I'm more annoyed by the way it seems that if you don't do PvP or you don't have a regular, set party, you might as well not even bother doing Icewind Dale, but, hey, priorities and all. (And, eff that, because there are some neat boons I want on both of my characters.) Oh. And that Beholder. That stupid Beholder. Edit:…
