No, that's not clear in that quote at all In fact, at no point in the discussion of why RQs were being introduced was soloing dungeons ever referenced as a reason It seems that when you reference this discussion and even the introduction of RQs that it was all before you started playing... is that the case? I've seen you…
If there was one thing you could change/fix/improve about the development workflow behind the scenes, what would it be and how do you believe it would affect the game?
I'll agree while also supporting @"theraxin#5169"'s point of view as a player because, as a player in the Cryptic world, it is very difficult to understand just where old devs end and new devs begin A lot of us understand that the devs we have now are just doing the best they can with what they have to deal with, but most…
You have to make sure she has a weapon equipped when you log in But seriously, I think its just an OP bug, and while I was running Defending the Sword Coast every day for about 6 months last year on my OP, he did it on most of the mid level zones... specifically I know he always did it in Blacklake, Hotenow and Vellosk, or…
Hero's Accord, as it stands now, only has the latest dungeon in it There has been indication that they might make changes to the RED structure, but the polar ice caps are still there even though a lot of people complained about hairspray, so its probably best not to be too hasty
For many months I ran Bruenor's quests every day on OP, DC, GFx2, GWF, SW and HR and the OP consistently went into combat around low level mobs where the rest did not Since he can't re-mount or interact in-combat, I just got into the habit of hitting Templar's Wrath to kill them all real quick as I dismounted, so I…
That was LotRO, prior to or around the release of Moria, so back before they went F2P I was hesitant to mention it partly because this is another game's forum, but that game effectively doesn't exist anymore It is interesting, however, in the spirit of this thread, to compare the two Neverwinter and LotRO are (were) both…
I remember a long time ago in another game the devs introduced a horse race event that everybody wanted to try At first, there was a crowd of players in a big ball and everyone was frantically clicking on the NPC to get in Eventually, a line formed, and no matter how long it became, players would see it and take their…
If the game encourages cooperation, players will generally be more cooperative If the game encourages competition, players will generally compete amongst themselves When the game changes itself in a way perceived as unfair, many players will do whatever they can to cheat the game and feel justified in playing selfishly…
Unfortunately, it seems Cryptic is more interested in speeding up the journey to level 70 instead of setting XP gain to a rate that would pace player leveling with advancement through Adventure Zones The new mod increases the XP gain rate from 60-70, probably in expectation of an upcoming level cap increase, but IIRC they…
Good job. This was high quality I think that it is important to stress that this is a grind based game Not for you in particular, but just to form an argument... When we are talking about item level appropriate content, which is not a good place to start for many reasons, it seems relevant that no matter your item level,…
There is already sufficient content for mid level players After a player reaches level 60-63, the path should be very clear by following the Campaign Journal... just complete them in order and by the time you get to what is now considered "end-game" you will be ready for it Meanwhile, the end-game will have moved along to…
The fact that there is a "gap" between CN and FBI is not a problem... There is supposed to be a gap, and it should be significant Players that have not learned (or even played) FBI should expect to have difficulty with it, especially when they are pugging with others that also have not taken the time to learn anything…
Update: There will be a small update tomorrow, February 23, between 1- 2pm PT on the Preview Server to temporarily modify some Control Wizard powers and feats. Nothing to see here.... Move along....
I didn't read that as to prove a point for forum people or to highlight problems... Pretty sure she has read more about the problems you guys are talking about than anyone at Cryptic, so what would be the point of trying to rub her nose in it? If she felt like there was something to be gained by logging in and having…
That was nice of you to test I dislike the ICD that was put on that pet because it was unnecessary and it causes a lot of confusion The reason I said his method was important was because even when spamming one spell many times, IC could just be proccing on anything else that was damaging the target, like a WE hit or a DoT…
Getting exasperated doesn't change facts, and the fact is that a CW with full feats and boons hits many times every second with many different damage sources, so an additional source of damage tied to just one of those hits that's also on a one second internal cooldown is very unlikely to reliably proc on any particular…
if you have the appropriate level of VIP, you can bring the bank to you, call up a teleport sign to go directly to PE or your guild SH or teleport to the Moonstone Mask to get you closer to the bank in PE You can also use teleport scrolls or you can use the door at the entrance to the Zone Getting back to where you were in…
There is also a lot of differences in what people call testing, and most of the time players don't use good technique If you used a fresh loadout with no feats, boons, weapon enchants or gear that could provide any other form of damage so you could be confident you were testing only the skills you mentioned, you probably…
<blockquote class="Quote" rel="zanaspus1">Everyone always blames the devs, but it is always the suits that are at fault. Let's say you stamp out widgets for a living. Are you more likely to listen to the widget users or the guy who signs your paycheck? Even if you know how to improve the widgets you make, the boss always…
I think you are both more right than wrong, at least within the range of acceptable or at least easily predictable human behavior patterns, but if ultimately I believe greywynd wins the high ground for his commitment to doing no harm to others, I also think spunkmeister is only (justifiably) doing what he feels is the best…
There was an ICD introduced to Infantile Compensation several updates ago (I think it was for 12b) The tooltip was not updated to reflect the change, even though a lot of effort had recently been put into getting tooltips corrected during the October Bug Hunt There were several requests to get confirmation of this change…
