If you didnt see a bunch of placeholder images on yahoo that slowly filled up with photos then your network speed is probably fine. I'm going to guess that you can bounce around on various image-heavy yahoo links with only the slight normal hiccup that you are used to seeing. This is a working network. Since your lag…

http://nw-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?185612-Feedback-Lag-and-Rubberbanding&p=8701961&viewfull=1#post8701961 Check this reply I made in the sticky thread recently. Your tracert results don't mean much of anything. I would say that your lag is probably due to extreme server load right now. This is day one of mod4,…

"NO no NOO! this won't do AT ALL!" LOL I have to admit that I love the demilich, and of course, Old Lenn at the blackdagger ruins. He suffers from like 25 sailor-related diseases all at the same time. "You're lucky my Lumbago's flarin' up!" How many people even know what lumbago is anymore? :)
-
I'll be that guy: "Welcome to MMO's". LOL I'm sorry this is happening to you, I agree 10000% that some ppl are just lame. But if this did not happen, think of how mind-bogglingly weird it would be. I actually go out of my way ingame to help people and run away before they can thank me for healing them or saving their butts…
-
LOL Some ppl have answered that they "always" read the text. Really guys? You've done the quest on 5 diff chars, but you stop to read it EVERY SINGLE TIME? I'm calling shenanigans on that. :)
-
I think I've seen you post in the temple area about clerics on a couple threads IIRC... isn't high-end PVP more about how good your gear is, instead of what class you play? Kind of a big power difference between a 9k lvl60 and a 15k lvl60 LOL I would imagine that balancing all these classes for both PVE and PVP to be an…
-
Some good suggestions here. +1 I mean if you can't get rid of the bots, at least let us shut them the hell up. LOL
-
LOL Why bother putting the "always" option in the poll? That number there is going to remain firmly at zero. :)
-
Wow that's a bunch of them! I've only gotten one PM here and there from spammers. Do you post in Zone chat frequently?
-
Just yesterday I rolled my first cleric. Once I got the hang of mostly staying put and healing myself through damage instead of frantically dodging or blocking etc. I realized that it is probably the most powerful class to level with. Finishing about 99% of fights with full health. I understand why clerics get poo-pooed in…

LOL "We've stopped accelerating our rocket ship aimed towards the sun! Our speed is now stabilized. Unfortunately, it's starting get warm in here..."
-
I agree here with the premise, but maybe caution you to not overly disregard F2P playersbase.. they just may be more important to the company than we realize. I wonder how many F2Pers would come to Neverwinter, and seeing a good environment and lots of opportunity for fun, decide to become a paying customer in order to…
-
I can get behind AD sinks like guild/player housing, convenience stuff like permanent teleport items (currently only a 4k AD one-shot scroll? really?) and so on. Seems quite reasonable to get players to want to spend a LOT of AD without it being a "necessary" thing for anyone. Basically, the opposite of how they handled…
-
LOL I like the idea of the bots getting eaten. When I was playing RaiderZ it was always fun with my guildies to drag some boss monster over to where bots were auto-farming resource mobs, and make sure that the bot took a shot at the boss "on accident" in order to aggro it. It took a little player intervention, but it was…
-
This is all very reasonable. I was actually surprised when playing beta and the nodes didn't move around to random spots after being farmed. That kind of thing leads to trouble, as I have discovered playing other F2P's. It makes botting extremely easy when the node is in the same spot over and over. :P
-
This is what happens when you hide crucial game advancement items behind a paywall in F2P: people will try to find a way around it. They were (wildly) successful in this MMO for a while. Now there is a mess. I'll repeat what I said in my first post on this thread: Maybe shouldn't have had coalescent wards and respec tokens…
-
Just checked. No. I CAN say that the "skipping" of the ZAX for posting overinflated coal wards on the AH is alive and well, however. The first 24 listings of coal wards are from the same user, who has them at 566k each. Obviously, it gets much much worse the further down the list you look. I think we'll have to wait until…
-
Okay so you're saying the updated formula is: Damage * (1 + (Power/16667)) That's a pretty big "revamp" LOL
-
Okay, so mod 3 revamped power... the original question still stands: What is the (updated) formula? Anybody know for certain? I have to admit I'm like 25% curious now.
-
Heehee Power = Voltage x Amperes There, that's the correct formula. :)
-
LOL Well if you have a better idea, maybe go fix the wiki. I've never personally tested power out, because it's kinda the stat you worry about last in many classes/builds. So much more important to give a HAMSTER about arpen/crit and recovery/regen/lifesteal most of the time. :)
-
Hey maybe the wiki is wrong. I've also heard it said that 100 power = +4 base damage.
-
This. We can quibble over how long it would take for the freepers to fall off, but the fact that they would leave once the realization hit is undeniable. I would assume a 1200:1 ratio is a hopeful estimate at best -- wouldn't be surprised if it stayed higher than that. Uncapping the ZAX is a step in the wrong direction,…
-
Do you mean what is the conversion for power rating into damage numbers? According to the wiki: Weapon Damage * (1 + (Power / 2500)) So, having a power of 2500 doubles your damage. 5000 triples it, etc.
-
/facepalm Yes, the cryptic devs are the ones who exploited the bugs (OR CREATED THEM ON PURPOSE) and now sell AD outside work thru 3rd party vendors. You found them out. /doublefacepalm
-
Yes. This is what happens when the "bubble" bursts. All the current market conditions are slowly building towards this point. I would expect Cryptic to do something before too long -- but they are kinda busy right now LOL. A healthy game economy would be reflected in the ZAX as a minimal or non-existent backlog, and the…
-
Yeah, if we're talking about bots then it's a good idea to assume the "rules" for what's reasonable are different vs. a human player. A quick look on google will reveal that the macro software that botters use is now very elegant and packed with features that make the automation of account/character creation easy. Mouse…
-
LOL Leadership and praying is kinda like pulling AD out of your a$$, too. :) I have to say I'm with magenubs on this, but I'm not so sure that the spammers are targeting the ZAX so much as they are going after the AH to multiply their spoils. It seems to me that the ZAX backlog is a side effect of rampant AH inflation as…
-
Agreed. But you have to wonder if they aren't already losing to the endless spammers plaguing PE with rotating accounts advertising 1 million AD for less than 5 dollars. People must be using them, or else these A-holes wouldn't be so dang ubiquitous. :) EDIT: in re to the coal pricing... i saw one for 540k earlier. it sold…
-
I can get behind that theory. Coalescents are a major sticking point in progression unless you fork over zen. I wonder if the devs are counting on that to drive zen sales with dollars? EDIT: If this is the case, I wonder if they'll make the coals BOP soon, like the keys. It's gotta be pointless to keep allowing the…
