  • Got bored and tried my hand at this today. Few differences, I decided to go ahead and wear my High Prophet set. and opted for a healer companion (Lillend) instead of a tank companion. In the pictures you'll see I had a GF with me, that was just a good buddy of mine who wanted to watch and I personally didn't feel like…
  • Hehe hey man it was a lesson I learned the hard way too. Most of the stuff the DC community has found out has come from just a long series of trial and error. But it's only through sharing our trials and errors (and the logic/explanations behind them) that we will be able to improve the DC community as a whole. Hell, just…
  • I do not think the Lathander set is a worthwhile investment for ANY DC regardless of build. For starters, half of the artifact set bonuses is made null by VIP (no injuries) and the other half of the artifact set bonus REQUIRES you to die and then either soulforge or be revived by a teammate to activate. Which means that…
  • We can't sort our lraderboards on Xbox that I'm aware of :( That makes me jealous! Back before the mount update I was able to hover in the top 10 pages as a straight DPS DC. But yeah, after the mount insignias showed up, I've not been able to cracking into the top 30 pages :(. I've since just ditched the idea entirely of a…
  • Ahh, alright that makes sense. TY for explaining that to me. Sorry for taking a hot minute to understand what you meant.
  • I agree and understand that but was just stating for the sake of thoroughness, if one REALLY wanted to, you could go DPS DC. In the current overhealing meta you wouldn't do very good as a DPS DC i fully agree. This is where I'm getting confused I think. How is AC any tankier than DO? Personal defense wise sure the AC will…
  • How do you figure AC is stronger in PvP? Admitedly we're speaking across platforms here as I'm just a console pleb (come here to the PC DC class sub for the intelligent conversations) so maybe I'm missing some minor shifts in how PC PvPs vs X1. But the way I see it is for PvP you can fill one of two rolls, full blown…
  • It would almost have to shift over to DO being the better choice. Sure even with a Power share nerf/fix the AC can still provide a big chunk of Power but at BiS, with these upcoming power changes, there's no way the extra Power gains will be more beneficial than the extra 25ish% debuff from PoD. With the ITF change…
  • Doesn't count. Don't use it
  • aw man! :'( Oh well, spose we'll just have to stick with the new debuff companion meta, Unless one of the devs decides to read through this and maybe change the way it works? I won't get my hopes up there though. As a side note before I disappear off the Cryptic forums again to go to my NW subreddit home, I understand…
  • Given that any class can use a bond proccing companion with debuffs to provide benefit to the team, assuming that similar companions' debuffs don't stack (i.e. 2 sellswords), and only other DCs (and OPs) could (potentially) use an augment to provide a bigger boost to the group's Power, I'd say yes, it's worthwhile to make…
  • Additionally, IF an augment does indeed add to "base" power, may want to double check on if Eldritch runestones slotted in defense do as well. Sorry not trying to be a nag. Just thinking "out loud" for the sake of thoroughness
  • Curious to know where the augment plays into it as well. If it factors into the "base" power that could be a fun little shift in the game's companion/runestone meta for the full buff/debuff DC. Wouldn't be too OP imo as you still can't eek out a whole lot from an augment. Additionally, if the augment factors into "base"…
  • I don't usually log in over here very often (at all) preferring to keep to the NW subreddit. But I felt obligated to log in when I saw this and say GG man! I've never thought to give this a go but now I might.
  • Initiate of the Faith increases your *Critical Strike* by 1% of your Power, not your Criteria chance, which makes it extremely useless as you'd be able to stack say theoreticslly, 25k into Power, and having 5/5 in Initiate would grant you an extra 250 Critical Strike... that's a 0.5% increase in your critical chance at the…
  • null Well that's like, your opinion man
  • Ok let me throw you a curve ball Bob. I'm sure you've never heard this one before but... I'm a HUGE fan of your work! (Tee Hee!) I've been reading them ever since I was a young boy (hardly that now...) and was forced to stop after a while due to a genetic disease taking most of my eyesight. I tried the large print versions…
  • Simply looking at the GMoP changes the devs have made to PC, I'd say we'll get the change as well just because the GMoP change goes hand in hand with the AD Leadership change and the GMoP change added a new type of upgrading reagent, Superior Marks.
  • Pretty much nailed it right here. AD is supposed to be a "time currency" according to the game devs meaning, the more time you play the game, the more you earn. Now I've spent the past hour or so ranting about how it's still got its issues over on reddit so I'm not about to just retype them all over here. But to summarize,…
  • You can't get rid of the lifesteal for recovery unfortunately. There's only one set of stats for the level 70 artifacts and for DCs, it comes with LS
  • I had this happen during PvP a few days ago. No idea what caused it so no idea how to give repo instructions to the devs to fix it. I will say it fixed itself somehow as I was able to see my group today. Try a hard reset on the Xbox maybe, see if that sorts it out.
  • My phone is giving me a hard time with providing a link for you but if you Google "Neverwinter mod 6 stat curves" the top result should provide back up evidence to what I've stated. As far as Crit severity is concerned, I'm assuming you're referring to the Tyranny of Dragon final boons, in which case, yes, putting a second…
  • I personally reccomendation using a hybrid between this Drowned Shores repetitive grinding and actually moving on to the next area. There seems to be a level deficiency if you follow the quest path without repeating any quests (meaning you'll hit level 65 when you finish Fiery Pit but need level 66 to progress to Spinward…
  • According to the Neverwinter subressit, it is indeed bugged BUT you can still get the artifact if you use the X button to withdraw the item instead of the A button
  • Mod 6 stat curves. The higher your level, the less effective stats are for that level until you reach 70 where 400 stat points is roughly equal to 1% (excluding ArP and recovery which are at 100 to 1% and 200 to 1% respectively)
  • Phew! Finally made it. That was fun!
  • I think it largely depends on your build. I have a theorycrafted Righteous DC build ready and waiting that SHOULD still be able to heal somewhat effectively but I'm waiting on us actually getting the content before talking about it as right now, it's just a theory. But I will say that I plan on chasing ArP up to near 5k…
  • Per an AMA that Strumsinger did on the NW subreddit, yes, we will be getting the DH enchantment ICD that PC currently has. Do I think it's right? No, not really. But it is what it is and it's not very likely to change.
