  • Feedback: Training Day demiplane Saw this recently with a new Bard test. I greatly appreciated seeing this, and I want to highlight the Combat Advantage part. When the combat rework hit just prior to Mod 20, it became clear that CA needed more explanation for players who hadn't gotten used to doing so yet. I think that it…
  • Just as an info note: STO players who have ever purchased the 1-time Lifetime Subscription receive 500 ZEN per month, for free. Essentially that Zen is just created and deposited, always on the very day of the month that person bought their LTS. My wife and I each have an LTS account and we always get our monthly stipend.…
  • In my experience, anytime you force the Unholy Trinity, you increase this problem. To create content that people find "challenging," you need to make enemy defenses high enough that it requires x number of Damage, enemy offenses need to be high enough that DPS characters can't tank or kite without Tank, or you render them…
  • To answer, I can confirm that STO is still capped at 500, but our exchange rarely hits cap. Exchange is instant in both directions, and those rare times we get close to cap, we almost always get a weekend event that makes a decent sink - upgrade or phoenix boxes (our Refining-upgrade system is for all gear and mostly uses…
  • It's not built in, unfortunately. My wife uses a third party program called reWASD, it just uses the controller to input the keys that Neverwinter uses. Comes with a default NW layout and has a free trial.
  • I've had that message for months now, but only on the character that has all 3 River District portal stones in her inventory and additional chests for more. That message used to pop up just on acquiring another chest, but now it's on every login. At least, that's what I suspect.
  • Admittedly I'm more versed on my 3.5 lore than 5th, but since when did the Fey give two sparks about gender? Many Fey creatures have existed outside humanoid binary notions of gender since they were first known, not unlike Corellon themself. +1 on your lore interpretation though, well written.
  • I know that there's a lot going on for Sharandar, but I'm choosing to bump now because I believe the same issue that happened to our Skyblazers is now affecting Soradiel now that it's no longer in the Z store. The Skyblazer companion is still not available for reclaim as advertised via Z store or Rewards Agent.
  • I had the same thing happen to the account wide Skyblazer several months ago. Once it left store, it could not be reclaimed, despite saying otherwise. I've made several reports and posted to bug forum. Nothing. It's soured me from any more Zen buys on this game for sure.
  • Not seeing it anywhere, but what happened to Master of the Hunt Skirmish? Why is the key in the AD shop if there's no use for it?
  • Warning: Containment Breach Detected! Unauthorized Transport of Neverwinter Guard from Toril to station Deep Space 9. Violation of General Order 1. (looks like same behavior as some of the NPCs on Star Trek Online, the crew on DS9 has been acting like that for years now.)
  • If you really still can't open chat, you have a major bug that should be reported using the in-game features immediately. As for Auction House, it should also be available at the top of your UI. No, you can't buy keys there, so far as I can tell. Me, I don't buy keys and I don't buy VIP, so Lockboxes go right to the…
  • From my last levelling experience a couple months ago, you should have been able to use Party chat as soon as you were able to join one. Now back then it was level 15, now it's level 5, so maybe it got bugged. Or perhaps you didn't have the channel set correctly? One thing I've seen is sometimes too many different chats in…
  • Zone Chat? You mean the thing everyone turns off when they start a new game? Seriously though, the Ignore button is your friend. I keep a chat tab for Zone, Trade, and LFG, and only open it when I'm in a Campaign area with a difficult or rare BHE for monitoring. Should I dare keep it up on map change to a major hub like…
  • > @"zimxero#8085" said: > Are you sure it's intended? I am wondering if the intention was to start characters at 100%, and then every upgrade lowers the percent until they hit zero. Then your character just deletes itself. If so.. it's still a 'little' buggy. I finally understand what THAC0 "To Hit Armor Class Zero" means.
  • I find the professions pretty enjoyable, and right now it's the only thing I'm doing until the combat improves. In my experience, try to keep Profession Levels together. It's a bit of work to figure out at first, but most professions can make Tools for improving success of other professions. Blacksmith makes the most, so…
  • I don't care for DPS classes, I usually play healers and sometimes tanks. I can say that I'm pretty much done on this game until another major change makes it playable. I login to craft for professions progress and logout. Not VIP so nothing else to claim. Mostly playing the Star Trek Online events (on the actually fun and…
  • Skyblazer Companion still not available for reclaim. I know there's a lot of other stuff happening, but this broke before all of that and is still not addressed. Just an acknowledgement would go a long way.
  • I can predict it now: Z Store and Tradebar only single-character items with a "Magic of the Feywild" modifier providing a % of stats that will never scale down. Immediate must-buy items, people will kick you for not having it, but it'll tie into New Sharandar so thoroughly that it will look like a Massive Success to the…
  • I'd think my Artificers could easily make a Trunk or Chest that I can keep in the Workshop to store surplus materials. It would force me to unload things there that I'm only going to use there, but it would be a realistic inventory system compared to a massive materials-only bag that I haul everywhere. Make them bind on…
  • Except we don't need all Augments to be adjusted differently so they help damage. If they simply buffed the overall effectiveness of all Augments at baseline, that would also close the gap. That way, the Augments that tanks, healers, and dpsers all favor (rarely the same ones) are all a better option than right now.
  • That's one reason I'm using only freebie reward Draconic and Black Ice enchants from random queues I ran before the combat change. To me, the tiny bit extra points I get from triples is better than single stat enchants, and mixing those up in offense and defense slots give me an overall balanced boost to almost everything.…
  • Why would they? Obviously the developers are happy with the game right now. Nevermind all of us who are finding it unplayable, broken, or just way less fun. We don't matter. Probably because we're not spending enough money to buy improvements, which is clearly the goal now. A fun game that people enjoy? Not here.
  • I agree with the unstable one above. I'm fine with the damage of active comps, my issue is that Augments are practically useless and provide very little gain. They need a higher contribution to player stats at all Qualities, not just Mythic.
  • For me it depends on my class as well. I've had success playing with contrast. Meaning, on my Fighter, I'm using Battlefield Medic or Zentarim Warlock, because I can move easily and they tend to stay in one place. If I'm on my Wizard, I use Cockatrice, who tends to run in when enemies ignore it, and it fights melee from…
  • Thanks for sharing that experience, it seems to be quite common. I've got some casual MMO experience as well and generally feel the same. Here's what people are going to point out: you mention levels 1-30. Have you gotten past that? Because one of the changes, the Forte thing, is quite broken for levels 1-30. It was posted…
  • Allegedly the aggro range is now based on difference between enemy IL and Player IL. Too close, or enemy higher than yours, and it gets harder. Conveniently, we don't get any UI display of this or what enemy IL is for a given zone. /s Not sure I buy it, but my recent levelling character was getting kitted out every time…
  • This happens with Black Dragonclaws in the Tyranny levelling zones and instances all over. If you can't power them down first, they overwhelm. And it's a big issue if you're playing a tank, healer, or DoT focused class.
  • Yeah never seen that either. Since they took off the Level indicator on enemies, which used to have a color indicating the difficulty, this may be a replacement. Also, maybe it's a Character Level difference, but it could also be an Item Level difference.
  • It's an appearance variant, yes, but it's a working enchant. I think the comment is because both Vorpal and Barkshield keep getting adjusted along with their z store variants. I wouldn't know, I never had anything but whatever's cheapest on AH, usually Terror and Shadowclad. Never got enough in my playing to get anything…
