    Any word on the cost of additional loadouts and if an extra slot is per character or account wide?

    You get the second loadout when the character reaches 30.

    Cost, they are keeping mum about thus far.

    New Lockbox (with the new Celestial Stag Mount)

    I really hope they didn't go through having the new legendary mount have +2k recovery +2k regen.

    updates to Artifact Weapons!

    Wait, what.

    edit: :O the stronghold weapons? The way it's phrased makes it sound like artifact weapons are getting a balance pass or something.

    I guess an additional set is technically an update, but the phrasing makes it sound like some kind of tweak to the entire system.

    I like the ability to swap character builds, but really hoped we could
    hot-swap spells. As a CW I'd like to be able to move from crowd control
    to boss fight without having to frantically bring up screens and hope
    I'm not dead before I get done.

    (We are required to be at a campfire and not engaged in a fight, right?)
    Did you really think anyone could steal the power of the god of thieves?
  • nitocris83nitocris83 Member, Cryptic Developer, Administrator Posts: 4,498 Cryptic Developer
    I agree that the phrasing is off on the artifact weapons. I'll touch base with the systems designer to verify once more. If I make a clarifying edit to the blog, I'll let you all know too.

    The vlogs are awesome, more of these please. Talking abt pirates, I role play as one in game and would love a lot more titles related to it (it's been mentioned adding titles ingame doesn't really require a lot of work so plz do it) and more customisation on pirate fashion or maybe even pirate gear ;) , need a hook to go with my pirate coat and an eye patch for the hat. Make it happen oh lord of the mimics.

    I agree with cellabock.

    One-eyed Greybeard - that would be cool. That's why he's angry right?

    That puts it at around what - June 27th for the console?

    It would be nice if this addition re-enables access to the River District that got cut off not long after it was originally enabled and is still locked out.
  • ravenskyaravenskya Member Posts: 1,891 Arc User
    So my question once the loadouts are active - if we buy a respec token for a character, will that respec both loadouts?

    Honestly, I hope not, because respeccing is enough of a pain I don't want to do it twice. I've been meaning to tinker with this on preview and not getting around to it.

    A character respec token will only respec one loadout.
  • nitocris83nitocris83 Member, Cryptic Developer, Administrator Posts: 4,498 Cryptic Developer
    Finally clarified the artifact weapon thing! It was a mixture of miscommunication and use of internal wording vs game facing wording. I spoke with Devs and there are no updates to artifact weapons. The wording was a reference to the item level system changes (preview thread on topic here).

    Sorry for the confusion everyone! Blog post has been updated.
  • beckylunaticbeckylunatic Member, NW M9 Playtest Posts: 14,231 Arc User
    That makes a ton more sense. Thanks for clarifying.

    I like the new ideas that come along.
    But what is the meaning of the stronghold's weapons? It starts with an excess of weapons and equipment, and with the cost of having stronghold weapons a 2% in attributes seems ridiculous, although in party it is 10%.
    Besides that the game begins to need challenges consistent with the variety of equipment you have. A campaign and a dungeon of 3100 Item level is ridiculous, when people have a level item above 4000. It is urgent to carry out a campaign, and dungeons, which are a challenge, otherwise the game is too easy.

    Try to remember that a lot of players do not have a 4000 TIL. Most that I know have under 3000. Not a perfect sample size, but still, lots of people out there do not have the time/resources to get a 4K TIL but still want to play the game and do the dungeons.

  • mcgwarfacemcgwarface Member Posts: 160 Arc User
    Although I have a great Guild and run w them, I enjoy random PUGs. It is the RARE occasion anyone is over 3300...I sit at 4k and do my best as an OP to keep level 2k - low 3ks alive through T2s. I think those that take the time to get on the forum, with strong guilds are just used to seeing 4ks.
  • b0rkch0pb0rkch0p Member Posts: 403 Arc User
    I've had a free respec on my account since mod 6/7or8.. I've never used it mainly because im happy with my char.. With the new loadout however.. Will there be yet another free spec given? trying to decide if I want to use the free respec before or after the loadout release as I learned you only have 1 free respec at a time

  • beckylunaticbeckylunatic Member, NW M9 Playtest Posts: 14,231 Arc User
    You won't need a respec to use loadouts, so I don't see why they'd provide one with this build. Your current spec would become the default one and the second will be a blank slate until you assign something.
