Recently there has been massive lag spikes in icewind dale zones. Tonight I went afk in icewind pass at the gate to Caer konig and when I came back from the bathroom I found some winter wolves beating on me in the southwest part of the map when I didnt even go over there. Later I manged to fight and kill a few giants but I…

Ive fought a lot of the epic encounters and the only main hand Ive gotten (the cleric one when Im a GF go figure) dropped from the beholder in dwarven valley. When my guild group and I fought it one of our gwfs died and had to run back. He did not get as good of rewards at the rest of us. So I dont think its a damage %…

I guess Ill just have to agree to disagree. Builds have a place in making you better at doing something then someone else. However at no time should a build or class be a liability to the rest of the group but thats how quite a few of the encounters in neverwinter have shaped up. I think thats wrong.
-
While its great you have a build that works that goes back to one of the problems I have with the game in recent updates. All classes and all builds should be viable for all content. No one should be forced to change their playstyle to succeed in any encounter. No class or build should be a liability in any content.…

I havnt found anything I cant solo as a GF (besides the epic heroic encounters) so far either but my comment there was not aimed purely at GFs. I was more thinking my ranger at that moment who's sitting around 13.3k GS with a full archery and offensive build. I can play perfectly with that character and some packs will…
-
I cant speak for other GFs but Im not getting one shotted despite black ice damage (which I havnt confirmed is or isnt there yet. Its actually something that slipped my mind to even check). However to be fair Im a 15k gs Protection spec GF. Im made to be the most defensive oriented build in the game. I often joke in guild…

IMO the best solution to finding dungeon runs is finding a good guild. That said Im going to do the most constructive thing I can and extend and olive branch to the players having difficulties. If you really want to find a good guild to run dungeons and learn the game Im willing to take guildless people or those shopping…

Knight captain is fine as it is IMO. Whats really needed to change things for GFs is changes to the gameplay. GFs are made to be tanks but when in this game is a tank actually needed? I really cant think of one. Instead our high armor often delegates us to the role of kiters because we can take hits however with the…

The main problem with the drop rate is not the drop rate of the shield but the fact that the bosses also drop blues. Whoever thought that was a good idea deserves the ire of the community because it just makes us waste our time on runs. Ive run MC probably well over 200 times by now always doing at least 2/3 and Ive seen…
-
From my perspective HR's are really in a bad place without a GF also in the group which frankly isnt needed for any dungeon and can even be a liability in some like VT. Most HRs just pull everything and end up kiting it the whole fight rather then dps the bosses which stops you from getting 2 or even 3 runs in a single DD.…

I finished a stack with over 1000 Marks today on my GF and still havnt seen the swashbuckler. Ive got no idea how many times Ive run it but thats a little rediculous IMO. However yesterday I decided I wanted the bow on my 39 ranger and got the swash on the second run. That swash got transfered to my main and I havnt seen…

I agree that they should change some abilities to further differentiate the new companions from the old man at arms and sellsword. However they need to keep the current active bonuses. Before the shield maiden came out the only companion with a deflect bonus (to my knowledge) was the portal hound. A companion you can only…

Try actually reading the thread because I already answered those questions As to your HP argument, no it doesnt make sense. What you're comparing is a bar that everyone can see on everyone vs a bar that people can see on one class while no one can see the bars of comparable abilities on the other 5 classes
-
Considering you started out in this thread with a ridiculous off topic statement like this: PvP: Why can people see an enemies health? I dont think you grasp the advantage that other classes have in terms of the GF's ability to guard against attacks or really what balanced PVP really is. That said, this is not WoW or…
-
Incorrect. The GF bar is a skill bar allowing players to see how much guard meter they have at that moment. Their visual que for blocking is the blocking animation. That thing where they hunker down behind their shield, hold their sword/spear/ax above their head as if to stab over it, and where they move extremely slow.…
-
Incorrect. During PVP when your cursor is over a guarding GF you can clearly see the blue bar below their hit points. As you hit it you can see the bar go down, or as the GF uses shield restoring abilities such as ET you can see it go up when the GF guards again. So far as I can tell there is no indicator for tab abilities…

For me the PVP set is usually a good set to get that 8300+ gearscore to get into Teir 2 dungeons with the rest of my guild. As a set, its really not all that great besdies an intermidiary set before you get the GG, High Viz, Miracle healer, etc sets. However if you PVP a lot you can spend your glory on those items and then…

Mindflayer sash comes from Spellplague, second boss if I recall correctly. I dont think Ive seen that ring though so Im not sure where that drops from

You actually dont have to upgrade any companions and when you can play the game without them out. Its more convienant to have them out but not necessary. That said, the upgrade costs are completely unacceptable and with the new active companion bonuses I feel like the game is treading into pay to win territory once again.…

I didnt know what SCA was when I first heard of it, no one in my guild did either but today I got to play around with it quite a bit and thought I would do a first impressions critique of the system. For those that dont know SCA is basicly a single player board game played through the gateway. It takes your characters…

Respecs arent an item that appears in your inventory. Go into your powers or feats and click the respec button at the bottom. If you have a free respec it'll say something like "use free respec" on the little window that pops up.

I made a similar post in that other thread and I agree. If companions were bind to account (able to be traded between characters) or account wide I would be much more willing to purchase them. However right now its just not worth it. Especially when hundreds of thousands of AD needs to be spent to make full use of…
-
It depends on what item youre wanting to purchase. Services like character slots, bank space, companion slots, etc are pretty cheap in the grand scheme of things and since they don't really effect the gameplay Im ok with them being that way. Mounts are a major point of contention with me. One one hand its nice to have…
-
If its the same run then you only got part of the story. For the record, I go into every run with the assumption that it is a normal run. In a normal run if someone doesnt roll need on a piece of gear it means its not an upgrade for them. Its how we do guild runs, its how I do normal runs, and its how I expect others to…
-
I have the proof that they kicked me from the run after I rolled need on an item (proof that I can not post on the forum due to the naming and shaming policy) that was for my class and that was an upgrade for me. That is in every way a legitimate need roll. They claimed after the fact but never provided any evidence that…

Ive gotta go with foundry pvp content. Granted Cryptic could make some great stuff but I think the foundry tools, used by creative players, will create a much wider variety of PVP content and ultimately make it more worthwhile.
-
While Im happy that the problem of guilds kicking non-guild members will become more easily recognized I still feel theres more that can be done to counteract this behavoir. At the very least month long temporary bans need to go out for the criminals that steal from others in the game. Repeat offenders need to have their…

Seems like bad times in GG are all around today. I was playing on my cleric earlier today and joined a run with another guild intending to do Dwarf king. In the past 2 runs I rolled greed on a belt and rogue armor that dropped (since they werent upgrades for me). However when a miracle healer's armor dropped I rolled need…
-
I sometimes PVP but with my guildies. Its really the only time I find it fun because win or loose I usually have a good time. Outside of the odd once in a blue moon match I almost never PVP (except for GG). The matchmaking system is just to awful in this game when its coupled with the fact that people can literally buy the…

I wholeheartedly agree that we need a mount tab. I just dont have the room to buy the mounts on the zen store even though I would like to have a few of them (along with some of my event mounts). 12 slots would work fine for me and they could even add in 6 additional slots for 100 zen each time. That seem reasonable to me I…
