Neverwinter new pics - OH GAWD ITZ HEAVAN

[Vaarna_Aarne]

I really don't know why MMO devs still try that kind of stuff, or why there's people who desire it.

 

[MadMaxHellfire]

the more people are involved the more can be blamed for one own's faults.
that's why massive raids are so popular.

 

[Bliblablubb]

So apparently there's a 25 man raid coming in the next mod.
This will be a clusterfuck of epic proportions.

Considering how awsome a dragon fight among the zerlings feels, I will send my Wizard with icy terrain in the fight just to troll everyone.
But seriously, performance aside 25 man raids just mean 10 guys are afk and 10 have no idea what they are doing. Been there, done that.

They revealed the next Warlock paragon path, Soulbinder.

I think all of you can spot some obvious uses Soul Sparks are going to have.

 

[eklektyk]

looks like its time for aditional pylon construction - with praising boxes it will reach proper lvl just in time to play with new path methinks

 

[MadMaxHellfire]

Class Feature: From Dust to Dust: When your Soul Sparks heal you they also generate 15% of your Maximum AP.

so this soulbinder casts a tt every combat at least once.

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

The way I understood, that thing only happens when you exit combat when the actual Sparks heal happens automatically. Not particularly impressive.

The real impressive thing is comboing Fury feats to get extra bonus from the whatsitsname Feature that grants extra damage while at full AP gauge with the feat that gives 2% extra damage per Spark.

 

[MadMaxHellfire]

yes, that's how it works. still you exit combat with max ap, so you can start the next one with tt, obliterating the enemy and gaining max ap again.

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

It seems that it doesn't give extra AP for any Sparks beyond the first.

 

[MadMaxHellfire]

oh, my mistake, i took for granted it was "15% per spark".
well, it's pretty useless.


double post which isn't one!
what's the most entertaining class in neverwinter? i mean, the one with most choices, most builds, most stuff to do which couldn't just be a macro or two.
i have new two spare slots, finally, but i can't chose.
i heard the mage and the ranger are overpowered but i'd like an armored toon to craft armors for larping reasons, but i don't want to grow bored.

 

[MadMaxHellfire]

noone answers me, noone loves me :'(

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

I was sure I'd written an anwer...

Anyway, I'd say the three most entertaining classes are Wizard, Guardian Fighter (nice mixture of tanking, party support, aggro control, and most of all decent stopping power as well nowadays), and Warlock (the Wizard's younger cousin with a Stand). Ranger is a close runner-up due to the fast-paced gameplay with a revolver loadout of abilities, and Great Weapon Fighter is good for those times when on just doesn't want to give a fuck and instead just pummel things while facetanking. Wizard is my own #1 thanks to the combination of nice animations, a large selection of spells that are worth using and pack a wallop, and the virtue of being a wizard. The Wizard's overpowered aspect is more than anything down to their supreme status as the master of AoE nuke control combo. Another thing that makes other classes jelly is that Wizard uses four abilities in a loadout (their class special mechanic is that their Tab casts a fourth Encounter spell as a Spell Mastery variant, which is stronger than the normal version of said spell through special mechanics unique to each spell).

Generally speaking I've found something entertaining about playing with each class, except maybe Cleric and Rogue due to how badly underpowered they are right now. Even if it makes me a little smug to watch the kind of damage I can dish out with the cleric's special synergies in Dragon Heroic Encounters, or outperforming random strangers with better classes as the Rogue.

 

[MadMaxHellfire]

in the meantime i tried the wizard and didn't find it fun at all, feels a lot like every other standard mmorpgs "stand there and press numbers until things die", maybe he'll improve in later stages, will he?
i want something which can be fun and can survive all the solo content actually solo, unlike my rogue who can't even stare at drows without exploding, even if less overpowered than my warlock who just disintegrates stuff.

how long for the class revamp and new paragon paths?

 

[Gerrard]

CW is true to the D&D Wizard Experience™. You should get some better gear if you have problems with the last zone.

Next mod is planned for beginning of December I think.

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

Any good wizard knows how to dodge, and Steal Time and Sudden Storm require you to get fairly up close and personal.

Also, the next module will have the class revamp for Cleric and Rogue, and a new paragon path for Warlock that was mentioned earlier.

 

[eklektyk]

for me most fun right now is warlock instanuketrashmobsITZheavan
close second goes to fire wizard bcoz it simply looks cool nukin in style ...

then all my gwf's as its simply press attack and watch stuffies die ...
rest is tedious without sirious bling [gf is betah but still hurts in solo dps and requires nice weapon enchant there - altho it stopped sucking balls thats a plus]

but with max lvl 6 enchants for economy reasons geting top rated gear for ur char is priority

 

[Bliblablubb]

How can you not adore the goodness called Hunter Ranger? Prepare your battlefield and watch enemies die while shifting around like ghost! Okay, if they surprise you it's time to make a JoJo... but you'll be back!

Rise of Tiamat coming November 18th

Standing in PE to praise Allah every day, not moving for months?

 

[eklektyk]

nah first proper two zones are enough xp to pick paragon with supplement praising dailies

 

[Gerrard]

Well, I'll have cleared Rogue's Tyranny rep by then.

Better keep grindin'

There's also 2 new boons and the final boons now have 3 ranks. And each requires a book.

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

Well that really means that I'll be doing that stuff solely for the XP, I'm not in a particular hurry to get the books unless they drop into 100k range on AH.

 

[MadMaxHellfire]

how the fucking fuck am i fucking supposed to fucking gather 1800 of those fucking fucks to fucking get both the fucking event companions when even for a single fucking token you have to fucking chase some fucking mob in the fucking middle of fucking lag central?

in other words: i haven't really appreciated this latest event.
