  • AO-Hell still around, and do they still run NWN? :)
  • Maybe so, but the publisher developed content should set the "standard". If they set the standard at face rolling everything that is what it is going to be the "standard". Also you can't queue for foundry content so unless you have specific people you know who want to run the group content on line at the time you are out…
  • I'm talking about the group dungeons (i.e. Idirs, Cloaktower, etc.) they are literally being ran in like 15-30 minutes (when they are 45 minutes expected) because all they are are zerg. No one gets close to dying, there is no feeling of risk or danger, it's just run into middle of huge group of enemies, burn them down in a…
  • Except prior to the tiered gear at lvl 60 everything that pretty much drops in the dungeon drops in the open world. There are only a couple of blue items per class that drop in the dungeon but those are generally replaced anyways I found at the same rate, and can also be gotten from turning in bounties. They aren't THAT…
  • Not sure I would say "all fail", they've tripled their profit year over year, or so they say. If true then something must be working.
  • Have to agree with Sin here, at 60 I've never felt the need through the leveling to HAVE to have an extra bag. Sure I got an extra 12 slot from HotN, but most of the time, just selling whenever I was sent back to the quest hub between groups of missions I had plenty of storage. Actually, keeping to level appropriate…
  • guys don't worry, right now in game is no better. Keep getting disconnects, server stops responding, etc. Had to quit on my lvl 60 tonight because I was going back and soloing dungeons I missed and kept dying on Idiris because I would lose connection or serveer would stop responding every battle.... When you are killed by…
  • Least you guys are getting somewhere. Just got home and launched the game and it can't connect :). GOod thing I powered my way up during the head start.
  • Oh that WILL change, around level 35ish? You start having to fight bosses in your underground adventures (the actual quests, not the dungeons) that require chugging a ton of potions before the combat, figuring out the best way to fight him, and then you'll still likely die. Best example I can give is there is a giant dire…
  • Well to be fair the highest the cleric can get is 15. They had problems with her in beta as well if you remember and then fixed her so she is useful, and she is still not that bad if you can keep aggro on you. I'm sure once the training manuals show up and we can get them to 30 it will be better.
  • Yeah but the panther is absolutely useless. I have mine sitting around at lvl 15 gathering dust because he has almost gotten me killed so many times by NOT jumping in to attack, while my maxxed lvl 15 cleric keeps me alive well enough when combined with my regeneration. Only problem with her is that I have abilities that…
  • Nope, not at all... level 54 and haven't spent money on anything that helped me in any way (yes I unlocked some lockboxes, but the rewards didn't make a HUGE difference or simplify the game really any, so I killed things 5 seconds faster, big deal). Only thing I see that MAY require monetary outlay is the crafting…
  • I've only been about 1/2 level below what I am currently running, I'll catch up for a few quests and then be a half level below again. It really isn't that bad. Here is what I have done from start to 54. 1. Ran all the quest lines 2. Did the first 2 dungeons (higher level there just isn't the people yet to do any of the…
  • I'm just saying it is more beneficial for them not to give us the freedom than it does to give us that freedom. Both financially and from an appearance of productivity point. Also DnD is a franchise not just a PnP RPG now, and has been for YEARS. Thus the reason for the following games: Castle Ravenloft (A 4E rules lite…
  • Simple reason... if they gave you the freedom to make what you want they wouldn't be able to come along months later and either say: A. See we created all these new classes for you, proof we are creating new content (even though they are just different specializations of the same class) OR B. See we created all of these…
  • Actually my wife and I are setting up a simple blog/website right now that will have the purpose of providing reviews on as much Foundry content as we can play, while still having time to follow the Cryptic story and make our own Foundry content. When it comes to our own Foundry content we will list it and a summary of the…
  • Actually that is incorrect, that works and Dweomer Keep has this exact thing via the statue of Mystra.
  • I know foundry quests scale with level, but I don't know for a fact that the Cryptic quests do. I actually suspect they do not as if they did I would not have been fighting level 34 and 35 mobs in the Clock tower over in Neverdeath when I was level 30. Nor demons 3-5 levels higher than me in the planes.
  • Amb I don't deny the quality (heck I programmed NWMush and helped with developing NWNX so I understand where you are coming from), my point like Kim's is that Cryptic should provide everything in base to get you from 1-60, quality of the quests don't matter, but it should be enough to get you from 1-60 were nothing added.…
  • Have to ask Amb what level did you start and end at on your characters this weekend because I went from 1-30 on a Trickster Rogue, did everything solo except for the dungeons/skirmishes, and when I ended the quest rewards I was getting were level 34-36 and the mobs I were fighting were in the same level range (we're…

  • Actually they stated that the NWO End Game content would be really hard. Their words were along the lines that they wanted the end game content to be so hard not even they could beat it. Sounds like a personal problem. I don't play them, beat them, move on to the next. I generally play each MMO a couple of years before…
  • Dungeon Earring? Isn't that who recorded "Raider Love"? You obviously never played Dungeon Quest (which is fantastic played solo with dice, paper, figurines, card and cardboard). Of course you're likely to die on any given turn from an unlucky draw but what are you to do?
