Well if we're to assume that preview of the Drow some time ago is still accurate, then they gain +2 Dexterity, +2 Charisma. Darkfire has a chance to debuff enemy defense on attack (spell?), and Trance increases your healing at a campfire/shrine. Not bad for Darkfire but the stats aren't as good as a Tiefling's.
I find comparing NWO and DDO interesting. They're pretty different games, with different rulesets, and different ideas of how to keep players entertained but they have similar problems. The problem I always had with DDO was that it might appear to be 3.5E but isn't authentic at all and it seemed to me when it launched way…
Going along this line of thought, you will want to think more about whether this game will be worth supporting to that degree a week from launch, a month from launch, maybe even a year from launch. MMOs are supposed to be about longevity but it is something well worth thinking about and perhaps the thing I'm concerned most…
Yeah it's definitely not a Controller from City of Heroes or a Coercer from Everquest 2, the crowd control is very short lived and as I've described, has me cycling quickly as priority targets close range. I'm not sure if we'll get more spell aside from level increases and additional paragon paths, I do wish we had more…
My experience was actually that I didn't end up having to necessarily have encounter spells on cooldown for a while, not till around perhaps the time I got my spell mastery slot. I used Ray of Frost a lot initially and then eventually stopped using it altogether although I kept it as my secondary At Will with Magic Missile…
I played a Tiefling in betas 1 and 2, cleric, and then wizard respectively. Their power is in Blood Hunt and of course the +2 Intelligence racial modifier. Human also looks very strong with Heroic Effort as you'll get an additional 3 feat points by level 20 allowing you to rank into higher tiers sooner. Will need to see…
Hey the funny thing is that I just figured out that it was the username at least part of the latest problem. The e-mail somehow ended up being the username, don't ask me I didn't handle that. So he's logged in and patching, doesn't explain why he never got the e-mail or when phone support starts but for now I will hope…
As an update: So I've literally handed my friend a once used e-mail address so he could use it uniquely to register, I ran it through up to receiving the validation e-mail in the junk box and he took over. Everything was fine until he tried logging into the client, tells him the password or username is wrong. He's tried to…
