Also, the random dungeon que (hit "k") says leveling que, the rest will be locked. But that's okay. Now the leveling ques will give you seals. For 300-700 seals, the seal vendor in Protectors Enclave will sell you primal gear that is Ilvl 500. So you can just do random dungeons, get seals, buy primal gear and get better…
So I guess that is another meditation on why no one does Demonic Escape. I see it as a reset for the cycle. Just go tag a mob and stand in the light. Its the fastest way to get it off the map and on with the other HEs. And while I see the idea of wantonly attacking anything you see being put forth pejoratively, I am pretty…
I know that we are past the age of subscriptions save for those Jurassic behemoths still lumbering around. But if you were inclined to see the VIP system as a 10$ a month sub, would you say that you got more out of it that a flat sub to other games? For other games with subscription models, you don't really get perks for…
It doesn't? So if I get good enough to succeed I can do it without gear? Or will I still need gear? Or will I now need gear AND skill? And If I don't have the skill, will I just need more gear? Eh, all rhetorical... for the record I rather wish they would do something to benefit the players too. I don't know if a…
I can see what you are asking for OP but perhaps you can see why you can never have it, not just in this game but in any game. The very short answer is because it doesn't make anyone any money. The gaming world is built around what can be sold in a store. That means gear, services and power. Every free game is like this…
Well there is this mindset... vs. THIS mindset... And by dragging their feet I think he means hitting mobs along the way or just taking your finger off the W key in general. And as you can see by the second opinion there, if you want to be part of the skirmish portion of the game you should get out of the que and get some…
I never understand these arguments of “it’s too easy?” It’s up to you how easy it is. Want to be challenged by those goblins? Try it with generic weapons. Try it without armor. Change your power loadout to something less optimal. Go to places above your level if you are sub-70. You can make it more difficult. When you can…
Oh having an auto roll option would be amazing! No more watching my screen fill up with dungeon loot like a windows 97 desktop in the middle of combat. Set your options for each level and let the RNG do the work. That would be so nice.
A thing to know about Neverwinter is that while you can't buy skill, you can buy other things that can put you well out in front of content and even other players who can't match your monetary input. Now I have to stop right there where PVP is concerned because I don't engage in any of that but certainly there are some…
Farming simulator, heh, well lets take a look at it... artificial slow downs and roadblocks everywhere, barriers to effort and progress at every turn, desperately meager returns on actual game play, even spending zen only gets you a chance to gamble on a punishingly small chance for anything decent and the most modest…
It is always revelatory when people try to turn ad hominem into advice. I certainly now know more about you Micky. But this was mostly about exploring the milieu of the Warlock and whether I was just doing something horribly wrong or perhaps if the game was broken in some ponderously unbalanced way. Or perhaps my…
It is a little sad on a number of levels. They left a viciously overpowered asset in the game and somehow it is YOUR fault for liking it. It just so happened that you could invest in it and the game could still rake in a bit of your time and cash. And now that they have that investment and you can't get it back, time to…
I am in "The Helm of Beunor Battlehammer" and it has gotten to the same point; boss instakills companion and then summons a ton of adds all of which are individually far far more powerful than me. Its super sad. I thought I had found some content I can do but no dice. I am pretty sure a Paladin or a GWF would waltz though…
Well that is a provocative thought! Am I doing quests that in fact out-level me? That would explain so much. And it is easy to check as well, just a tap tap tap, and a few click clicks and... Well the problematic quest I spoke of earlier is “The Birthing Pools” and it is a level 59 quest. And Ghost Stories is listed as a…
Well the fault is certainly not with the build. It works amazing and only gets better as I learned to use it. I was sailing through content wondering if perhaps the warlock might be due a nerf while mobs died around me like mayflies. I got to pick the powers I wanted to lay waste with, I had my choice of style and flair.…
Huh... every Warlock eh? I admit I felt a bit slighted that perhaps I alone might be in these doldrums but it stings a fraction less to imagine that I am but one of many. Schadenfreude and all that. I am missing the decent defender but I don't think it can help me against the thundering herd. It feels like a mechanical…
You are all right of course, a post without salient facts is just an empty complaint. I have a level 60 warlock and I am currently in whispering caves in what I hope is the last part of the chasm. The Ithilids are straight up murdering me, full stop. I don't even have a ghost of a chance against the ulstigator herds. I…
I think the point might actually be that different people have fun in different ways and that opening the game to other play styles can only increase the Neverwinter playerbase. In addition, I think that the constant assumption that everyone either plays like you are they are wrong is a significant impediment to anyone…
….Wut? That’s like the forum equivalent to talking to yourself in the check-out line. But it’s true that this forum hates some punctuation. Nothing to do for it really, just post it and if it doesn’t take post it again. I can usually make it submit in the end. But to avoid a hijack of the thread, back to the point… What…
Oh ye who decry! Oh ye who shout to the heaven that all is bad and no good thing is on the earth! Seriously, get thee a grip, yo. I don’t think anyone would offer a system like that without some safeguards. Especially to the frequenters of this gaming establishment. Now don’t let me give you the impression that I believe…
Here we have a relatively civil example of the sort of “play my way or don’t play” ruckus this kind of thread generates. Not that it’s the Ops fault at all. Even if the idea of a bit out there, the desire to see the game seems earnest enough. There isn’t much profit for Cryptic in you seeing the game by yourself though.…
You, Sir or Madame, are going to get some real hate about asking for solo anything in a mmo. But for what it’s worth I like your idea, I like the concept. While the development team has made some tentative moves toward making the PUG experience less painful by gating the needing of loot and the BoE changes, people are…
Doesn’t give advantage? But of course it gives advantage. If your fellow is invoking while you are in the other room watching teen wolf, that is an advantage. No one else can do that unless they too are using third party programs. If it doesn’t involve you sitting at your computer pressing a key with your fingers then it…
PWE: We want to see more people logged on to your servers! Dev Team: AGH!! OKAY! Hmmm maybe we could make some automation tools to log you on in hours where you might not be home or awake.
