Although it may not display numerically there is the possibility that the proper stat augmentation is applied. I'm only saying it's a possibility. The probability is that it's broken. I have no testing or research to contribute but I will say this: There is a reason I don't believe in trying to boost up my Combat Advantage…
It's interesting that everything else regarding achievments both in-game and XBO work just fine (save for the occasional 24hr or so delay to register which is a phenomenon inherent to XBO across all games and apps), but as soon there's something important affixed to the achievement --say a swanky mount or companion through…
Actually I had Blade Storm on today as I was soloing and I found something very interesting. I slotted Terror just to switch things up a bit, and it seems Blade Storm works perfectly fine with it. Plant Growth, Hindering Strike, Rapid Shot, whatever, Blade Storm procs... as long as you're using Terror (or not using Dread).…
From what I can tell, Blade Storm activates with actual melee attacks, that is ones that are blade based (Steel Breeze, Rapid Strike, etc) but does not activate with root applying encounters like Plant Growth or Hindering Strike. This may be by mistake, or by design for the XBO version. Who knows. Regardless, it makes…
Considering that the Tyranny Of Dragons campaign progression to the one that allows you to purchase Dragon Empire Treasure has been both simplified and expediated, and that there is no longer any discription or detail of the Reclamation tiers in-game other than the Well Of Dragons reclamation banner always reading "no…
Yeah I noticed "roger" long ago. On what planet is roger an offensive word? What the chat system desperately needs is a blacklist function. For example, fictitious user "smokemtokem420" is spamming Zone with incessant mindless chatter and you're tired of seeing it. You should be able to highlight his name in the log as you…
As a rule of thumb, the reward for leveling up another level should never EVER be bonus XP. Never. That is such a slap in the face. I've only received bonus XP once or twice all time but yeah, bonus XP shouldn't even be on the drop table.
Actually I knew the cut off date well in advance and I don't use twitter at all. Arc sent out an email about the promotion which stated its duration quite clearly.
I don't think Clerics should be able to remove injuries. I think the Lathander set should prevent revival sickness. I think the Menzoberanzan Renegade should get a new race perk seeing as 2x injury recovery speed is rendered redundant by Lathander's set and VIP 6 or whatever. No, I also don't think there needs to be…
Nothing's been fixed. I don't know where the idea that it would be fixed came from, but obviously nothing of the sort has transpired nor has Cryptic offered any feedback on the matter. Why would people think to hold off until Thursday's reset to start donating anyway? Why would one assume a patch would go live on a…
Perhaps all is well and quality of life has improved for prerendered groups queuing up to run thing back-to-back and such, but for non-guildies this new queue system is an utter travesty. It's a matter of fact that I haven't managed to get a single run in of Demogorgon since this new system went live, and that's 0 out of 8…
My new Lv70 Greatweapon Fighter just recieved the quest The Portal to Tuern seemingly randomly from Boward although it states 'Lv60', and I am here to report the same glitch occurrence. No matter where I attempt to launch it from and regardless if it's selected as a path showing display or not, this quest fails to load…
Why would you stop at Lv20? I suppose you could say Weaponsmithing really has no reason to go to Lv25 other than the Legendary title. In fact it could be easily argued that every other profession has something of value past Lv20 in the form of reinforcement kits or materials or whatever, but Weaponsmithing has nothing at…
When you're leveling up you'll spend a long time being far away from most of the better utility moves near the mid to bottom of the list. For At-Wills Rapid Shot is your friend and will remain so, so use it. Split Shot will be okay until you can get Electric Shot. Aimed Shot is garbage and always will be for reasons you'll…
Yes! "Dalelands". It happened to one of my characters first and the other followed sometime after. On the first I didn't mind so much but on the other, my lowbie that I specifically chose a specific history for, it really bothers me. It's happened to my friend also. Please fix this.
It's impossible to police what users do with their AD. To suggest monitoring transactions and banning those that are 'suspect' is very Patriot Act, and is an abuse of power that can only go wrong. The only way to cure any percieved problem with abuse of the game's ecomony is to allow for the transfer of all currencies…
They've snuck in 2x XP now!? Oh for **** sake. Y'know... I'm sure they think they're doing good and have good intentions but the point of having a calendar is so it can facilitate planning in advance. This simple premise should not need explaining. If it is not possible to properly adhere to the posted schedule and is…
Clearly if you use the Dragon's Hoard enchantment then you're aware of this phenomenon with the drop ratio working as you'd project it would at first, but then severely diving in effectiveness after that. Actually the above case of Monsters on Ice is a perfect example of it in action and yes, I found the exact same thing…
Buying an item straight out (winning an auction by means of buyout) but not recieving the item? No, I'm afraid that's never happened to me and I would assume it's extremely rare if even possible at all. Of course you'd know if you're 200k aD short and did not recieve what you spent that aD on, but to answer the question…
The way you ensure winning is by overpaying; bidding significantly higher for something you are determined to win. The pragmatic approach -- if you want it bad enough then you'll pay more than it's worth. Weaseling in at the last second for a few measly aD more isn't showing much conviction and no, you can't ensure such a…
I would say that a Mythic mount is hardly "needed"; it's an abusive luxury that is not intended to be standard issue. One can exist in the game perfectly fine with a Rare mount, most of which are Zen Store, account wide aquisitions. It's just my opinion but the less Mythic riders blasting through spawns willy-nilly while…
The older 360 build used to have a status feature that included Offline, Away, and Busy. At some point they did away with that and added the invasive "...was last online X minutes ago" nonsense and completely eliminated any form of privacy due to the fact that if you were appearing offline it would always display as…
It's gambling, really. If I had 20+ characters named "bank01" through "bank026" and dealt in hundreds of millions of Astrals then ya, I'd probably have fun opening up hundreds of lockboxes a day too. I mean you only have to score once to make your money back and then some if you hit a mythic mount or ultra expensive…
On the subject of symbology. If you want to scrutinize some hidden non-fictional occult symbology present in Neverwinter then check this out. In Icewind Valley there's a polar bear rich area down low just off where the travel gate is. Down there lives a lone polar bear named "Old One Eye". That wouldn't be very unsettling…
Perhaps when you're below level 70 there doesn't seem to be a lot of use for ID scrolls, but things change. Eventually you'll be feeding your artifact gear with the gear you drop, and all the gear you drop when in level appropriate zones will be a constistent stream of perfect Lv70 artifact food that will all need to be…
Yes, privacy. We used to have this thing called privacy. It went somewhere and people forgot it existed. Now it's back and people are unfamiliar with it, but they'll learn :)
Oh! Reading through this has prevented me from complaining to the man over a Dread Ring issue lol Very nice. You see, unfortunately I'm one of the lucky ones that has the Dread Ring Special Quest glitched ("Goodbye.") and have to endure the special quest arrow being forever illuminated in the top right of my screen.…
