Still no fix for the HE rewards is very disappointing, missed out on the last AD event because I couldn't claim the currency from campaigns that were included in the event, but rewards couldn't be claimed. My main is now parked not because the game is unplayable, but because I can't get paid for the stuff I'm doing that is…

Oops.

The Mountaineer set is in the Free section of the Zen market, not the trade bar store.
-
My issues began with the Elemental Evil campaign heroics. Up until yesterday, if I completed another HE, the reward was claimable, and I'd get a box that says "Open Another" that would then shoot the same error message as when I click on the reward on the screen: you already have this item. I didn't dedicate any real time…

So I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you don't play many MMOs? This will be far from the first time that some content has had to be removed, or locked, due to something glitching out. I would also like to point out that a dungeon that didn't release with an update cannot be shut down by said update. I would also…

@aratech By the time 4e released, Gygax and company were long gone from Dungeons and Dragons. They were all gone before WotC got ownership of what was left of TSR. So no hidden 4e jokes, they wouldn't apply to the statements I made. Regarding the rest of the discussion, I guess it's a YMMV thing? Maybe it's because I never…
-
Yep, this really needs to be addressed, I am unable to collect rewards in any HEs, including places where I could yesterday.

At no point in their time did they envision players being demigods either, but if we compare toons from NW currently, pick a zone, to players in PnP, they are exactly that. So, concessions are made for cRPGs, and frankly, even outside of a D&D setting, these concessions are made. They were made here prior to M16 as well,…

I stopped reading right here. The books that tell stories from the D&D universe came well after the table top game. The Dungeon Master's guide hadn't been written yet, nor the Monster Manuals, or the Player Handbook. All were, essentially, pamphlets, because it was a shiny new experience way back then. The actual source…

Lots of people want to see me naked... When I returned, I wasn't best in slot anywhere. Well, maybe I was, for back then, but playing prior to the update was still just as easy as it was when I left. None of my enchants were maxed, still aren't, and I'm still not struggling with "it's too hard". I have had my HAMSTER…
-
So your solution is that anyone that found the game too easy should just play naked, with no weapons, so that you can be carried through w/out ever having to learn even the basics of the game. I can see that being good for the health of an MMO... That's sarcasm, in case you couldn't tell. I dealt with my issue: I left. I…

I played it when the Player's Handbook was a pamphlet. Does that make me an expert? Not sure, but it does mean that I've got a bit of experience with it. I can look up on my desk right now and see my dice, still here, after all these years. Were you even aware that originally, that's how D&D was played? Because reading…
-
Do you even D&D? Of course there's scaling, otherwise there's no point in running a campaign, is there. Everyone rolls up, gets their max level, with max level gear and goes home. I guess it makes cleanup easier that way?
-
No, but apparently I did? I'm basing my comments on being around the industry for a very long time. This isn't my first MMO, it's not even my 10th, I'm way past that. I was way past continuing to support this game in 2013, when it was so easy you could nod off during combat. So that's about 6 years of lost revenue, and…
-
How many patches have they released since the live stream?
-
You honestly believe that the devs looked at player feedback and said "yeah, let's make the game harder"? If so, I've got some ocean front property in Arizona to sell ya'. Here's how that really works: They look at their back end numbers, information that none of us are privy to, and determine that way too many people are…
-
I completed an encounter the other day, and when I try to collect the reward, it says I already have it. Completing another allowed me to actually get that reward, but when I hit the Open Another button, it gave me the same message. I'm not sure how you can replicate this, since I'm not sure what caused it other than…

I'm thinking Tubular Bells from the Exorcist... I've seen them scattered all over the place.
-
I've played MMOs past my actual enjoyment of them for the same reasons. Most of the crowd I gamed with 10 years ago are friends on FB now, and have even "recruited" me to return to a game now and then. Eventually, however, if I'm seriously not having a good time, or, an even better example from my perspective, when I have…
-
Feel free, but let's be truthful about what we're saying? How about citations for "vast majority"? In PE I've seen the same 10 people going on for a while now, so unless the population is only 15, that hardly qualifies. How about we ditch the "but all the leveling zones are empty" coming from people that, based on how much…
-
Irony? I've been told repeatedly in PE zone that I'm a newb, and that there's nothing wrong with that. I went in with a class that I don't play, and found I could complete the content. The only thing I was looking to see is if this content had somehow become bloated difficulty wise. My answer was "No, it's not any harder…
-
So I find myself wondering: If I went to a therapist, and told them I was doing stuff constantly that I didn't find fun, despite getting advice to find other stuff to do from others, how long it would take for me to be locked up. It's like standing in a fire and complaining that it's hot. I left my last MMO because their…
-
Yeah, I'm thinking I'm going to do the same thing, just to see. Something I ran into the other day, in another zone, is finishing the boss, but missing a drop I needed, and going back for it, and missing out on the end chest, which didn't let me complete the quest. Simply going back allowed me to complete, although I did…
-
This is laughable. There is no "betterment of the game" going on here, there's only resentment about the game not being "nod off in combat easy" any more. So how about some of that "truth": 1. Leveling zones are dead/barren/ghost towns, and yet, every time I read this, I've just left zones that were crowded with people…
-
So you can put words in my mouth, or state the intent of my post, and that's fine, but if I post my perception of your intent, it's "putting words in your mouth"? Let's take a minute to consider the ramifications of that statement: "It's ok if I assume your intent, but don't you dare try to assume my intent". That about…
-
It's really not salt, it's realism. It's watching a healer have a meltdown in zone chat about actually having to heal in a group now, as opposed to whatever it was they were used to doing, which I'd guess was closer to leeching their way through the dailies where group content is concerned. It's watching "standing in…
-
Salt: I may have to work harder to get the things I used to just roll solo. Issue: Apparent bug with an OnDeath script that doesn't allow the mobs to drop specific items. I trust that you filed a bug report on your issue, instead of, or along with, going to PE and coming here to vent?
-
Yes, I have, and I'm not uncomfortable reading any of them, even ones where I was wrong about something I said. It happens, and I'm just far enough right of center as to not believe that everyone has to share my opinions or be shouted off a platform. I'll answer the question I had in that, my first post upon returning to…
-
Except it wasn't a "call out", it was an observation from someone who's playing both games. Poster made a claim, and I submitted my take on the comparison. If you want to call that a call out, I'll roll with it. Oh, I get it now, "but you're not on our bandwagon, and need to shut up"...

You mean posts like this one:
