  • Something to remember about alignment: it represents your worldview, it doesn't dictate your actions. Lawful good means you try to help others and do not break the law most of the time. It is not a rigid definition. If a law is too rigid or allows/forces an evil act a lawful good character can and will break it. The act of…
  • Well trying the phone call redial dance again today. At least I got the support page redirect loop fixed through a tech support forum post and specially labeled email to customer support so there's at least been a little bit of progress, just not where it really matters. EDIT: An hour of redials and finally in a hold loop…
  • Well 40 minutes on hold so far today, let's see if I get through before I have to leave for work. I also finally found out what's up with the redirect loop going on with my account and the support page and am trying their email support with a specific subject line to try to get that resolved so that I can hopefully get…
  • Well hate to be a rage-quitter but this has been the single-worst customer support experience I've ever had and after almost 5 hours on hold and no response I've filed a BBB complaint. Since I can't even contact customer support as the support page errors on my account I feel that I have no other recourse. I had such hopes…
  • A GF shouldn't be near a rogue in damage, a GF is a defender not a striker. Defenders are meant to take the hits, not do the damage, that's why they have the GWF. The big problem is they're trying to nerf a rogue trait that some people can't handle in a pvp match. Since they don't make pvp and pve mechanics separate that…
  • Thanks I've been on hold for about 2 hours this time, 1 hour last time, and before that got dropped every minute or so and had to dial in again. I'm hoping I can get through because otherwise I'll have to wait until next Friday to call. With the shift I work I'm sleeping most of the time that they're open for business…
  • Yes, as long as pvp and pve mechanics are the same for classes the non pvp'ers are always going to suffer from the balance whining of the pvp'ers. I was already disappointed with the TR when they restrict stealth to level 10+ and it's not a toggle. If they want to make at-wills break stealth then stealth should be able to…
  • The flaws with point 2 is that this is a game based on D&D 4e where all the races and classes are equally common, at least as far as the rules go. Player preferences may be different. Neverwinter in the setting and time it's at the drow and any eladrin faction (sun, moon, or star elves) are all equally present, at least…
  • For those who called in for support what kind of hold/queue behavior did you get? The first 30 or so times I called I'd be on hold for a couple minutes then get ringing, then a blurb about their support hours and it'd hang up on me. Now when I call I get the 'all agents are busy please hold' then 30 seconds-2 minutes later…
  • No luck getting through yet, keep getting a pre-recorded message about their hours then it disconnects me. Did billing take the day off today? Not even a voicemail option, their system is very unhelpful and is a poor representation of their company (I should know I work with customer support). EDIT: I also can't reach the…
  • Yeah I only remembered having it when I happened to mouse over the debuff icons on an enemy and saw faerie fire. I too was disappointed that it had no vfx since that's kind of the point of faerie fire, to light up an enemy with a purple aura.
  • Actually the renegades in the founders pack have access to six tattoos that the regular drow won't have. I'm not sure if the regular drow will have the faerie fire racial ability either (minor debuff in combat, no vfx so most probably aren't even aware of it). Also the title and spider mounts were exclusive to the founder…
  • Yuan-ti, behemoths, spellscarred, carnivorous plants
  • Luskan is known as the City of Sails
  • Hard to say but I'm suspecting they're talking raid T1/T2 since they seem to indicate you have to have a minimum gear score to get into Gauntlgrym as it's stated for being "those who've mastered the dungeons".
  • Gauntlgrym is not a new module, it's part of the launch content and is the end-game content (and first raid level content). Fury of the Feywild is the new module and includes a new class and likely content throughout the levels including solo quest lines, a skirmish or few, and a dungeon or two. When they say T1 and T2…
  • Those changes may all hit by the 20th when Gauntlgrym content is enabled (which is not an expansion, it was 'go live' content as you can see by talking to Rhyx at level 60 with the Gauntlgrym daily PvE, PvP, etc. quests). They may not release all the changes at the same time, some may go live earlier than others depending…
  • Because you can ALWAYS buy a respec token. The free token will only be for existing characters at the time of these changes and is standard for an MMO to do when there's a major overhaul of a classes abilities (hell some even force a reset so you HAVE to respec). If you like your character as is after the changes you can…
  • Not too much on Fury of the Feywild yet, but glad I called two components based on the image: Feywild and Fomorian Giants. Now we just need rangers, warden, wilden, gnomes, and eladrin (moon elves) to go with it :)
  • A general looks at the harbor filled with crates of tea and shakes his head. "This is not what I meant when I said we needed a tiefling!"
  • Actually any item that has a value, whether it's a service, virtual, or physical can and often is taxed. Some countries especially in Europe put a high amount of tax on the items and that tax has to be paid even if the winner isn't from that country. Quebec requires all sweepstakes and their prizes to be in English and…
  • Feast of the Moon - on the first full moon after Midsummer unlike the rest of Faerun where it's held in winter. The Reign of Misrule - ten days oafter Highharvesttide, it's their sanity break day.
  • Which would be accurate. Neverwinter the MMO is set at the same time as the 4e FR Campaign Guide and Neverwinter Campaign Setting books. the Neverwinter Campaign Setting book even mentions the MMO is set during the current time of FR. I'm sure D&D Next will eventually update FR to some point beyond the current time.
  • Manshoon under the name Orbakh the Night King, vampire lord. Those doing net searches are sadly getting wrong information as most of the wiki entries for the Zhentarim don't cover the periods post-Spellplague or the current status of the Realms per the FRCG and NWCS which is when Neverwinter is set.
  • A friend is having a similar issue. I gave him my second nightmare and when he first equipped it it became bound and will equip to the 6 slot but when he tries to use it gets the "cannot user this power" message. His other mount (the guardian pack horse) does work fine.
  • I don't have any chars with an apostrophe but I get the same relogin issue switching characters. This is with both Chrome and IE10 on both Win7 and Win8. I don't have FF installed so can't test that browser.
  • So you're saying there was NO beta? Closed beta they also accepted RMT (and yes any zen you spent during CBW's was refunded for use in the Open Beta). Many MMO's take RMT during beta, and many of them require you to pre-order the game to even get into the beta, that's an RMT. It's hard to test the RMT stores in the game if…
  • They said the fix shouldn't affect normal dungeons so I doubt it was a blanket XP nerf. I could see them possibly putting a per quest XP cap though that could be tricky as the length it takes to clear a map should have a proportionate reward. Since the commonly mentioned exploits people have listed are pens and cliffs it's…
