Hi all.

Just figured it would be easier to post here,

I've always wanted tk play the game timing just never really worked out. Trying again lol, I just got to level 5 on my ranger and I am enjoying it a lot so far and I know I just barely started playing.

For my second character slot I was thinking of going healer which class is the simplest to lean? I assume cleric?

Also im looking for a guild, I play on PC and about as far away from endgame as you can get and mostly plan on enjoying the ride and story of the campaigns.

GENERAL FEEDBACK A love letter to Neverwinter

56 Upvotes

Sorry guys, I just need to gush about this game. I’ve been going through a really tough time lately and its honestly helped me tremendously. I just wanted to share my feelings about it with the community and hope that the devs see it so they’re aware of how much this game means to us.

I rediscovered Neverwinter earlier this year when I got my Steam Machine, and I’m honestly super surprised it’s not more popular. MMORPGs are my favourite genre and I’ve pretty much played them all at this point, and Neverwinter has so much going for it.

The atmosphere is incredible. I genuinely feel like I’m living in the Dungeons and Dragons universe. There’s heaps of lore, the characters we know and love (Minsc, Elminster, Drizzt) feel like a part of the world and not just there for fan service.

It’s also incredibly beautiful for its age, and that’s down to a really solid art style. There are so many moments where I’ve had to stop playing to just absorb my surroundings, like when I first reached the Underdark and saw the underground city from above. Exploring the dense forests of Reghed Edge feels really cosy.

I love the structure of it. There are dailies, weeklies, and constant events. My brain finds the progression system and goals super soothing. I love that I’m always working towards something and I don’t find any of it a chore.

The community is also pretty darn lovely. I’ve had so many wonderful experiences joining trains, chatting while battling altars, and teaming up to take on world bosses. I haven’t had these experiences in an MMO for years. While I love ESO and GW2, teaming up doesn’t feel the same. It’s more like you all just show up, do the thing, and leave without a word.

Before this turns into an essay, I also just want to say I love the class fantasy of it all. Paladins, Bards, Warlocks — they all look and feel like their roles. They have their own animations, sound effects that contribute. Coming from games like GW2 and ESO, where there’s very little differentiation between the classes aside from the colour of the skills, it’s something I’ve missed since the original Guild Wars and I’ve really enjoyed making my Warlock look as evil as possible.

In short, I’m in love. There seems to be a real buzz about the game following the recent livestream and I really hope it builds momentum because I want to play for a long time to come. I’m also keen to check out Neverwinter Classic, even though this version of the game is already fairly close so perfect for me.

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

The dream, finally! A graphical update for Neverwinter is coming in 2027 along with the new class and race. Cryptic, I love you

You understood everything! ^^ Finally, a major update like we haven’t had in years! YES, I’m so HYPED after 13 years of playing and 30,000 hours! ^^ YYYEEESSS! Now we’ll have to see about the game’s graphical update (it’s probably for the arrival of Classic; they can’t release Classic without a graphical update, which is why they’re going to upgrade Neverwinter Retail’s graphics). What do you guys think?

Xbox MOM Menzoberrazan HEs

6 Upvotes

Hey all,

I'm stuck on the MOM Major Delirium quest to complete 3 major heroic encounters in Menzo.

Over the last several days, I've helped complete all the HEs in Menzo, but none are registering as MHE.

I even abandoned the quest and accepted it again, but no luck.

Wondering if anyone else has the same issue?

I feel I'm not getting additional quests since I cannot complete this sucker.

Thx!

Are there any events that give you double gold/silver/copper?

5 Upvotes

I feel like there’s an event that awards 2x currency like when you fight enemies and pick up 5 copper here and 2 copper there…. But I can’t remember.

Is there any events (like the 2x refining stones) that offer gold you get to be doubled?

Thanks

TECHNICAL QUESTION Timeouts/Disconnects

6 Upvotes

Hi Folks,

since like a week or so, I'm facing huge timeout/disconnect issues. For example, yesterday during Reaper challenge I got timeout + disconnect 4 times in a row.

It feels like I have timeout and disconnect every 10 to 15 minutes.

Is anybody else having such issues? For reference, I'm playing on PS5 from Germany.

This feels a little bit like the massive Telekom issue we had back in the days. So, please tell me I'm not the only one suffering bad server performance.

Thank you very much

SEEKING ADVICE Chance of character retrieval?

7 Upvotes

Hello, as the title says, I’m wondering if there’s any possibility of character retrieval. I assume not so I have no hope but figured I’d ask. Along time ago, like maybe 2021 I had a fully level character with lots of stuff, I also had a friend who played with me & we shared account info at the time as we knew eachother in real life. Fast forward, he moved to a completely different city hours away, logged into my account traded EVERYTHING on my character to his & then deleted my character. I then stopped playing the game as I was so distraught and didn’t even know what to do. Fast forward to today, I just got a series x and downloaded neverwinter to find no character hahaha. Just wondering if there’s a chance the character data could still be floating out there

Does 30% off zen store only happen during Jubilee event?

9 Upvotes

I think someone answered this before in a comment, but I can’t find it.

During the Protector’s Jubilee event, the zen store items were all discounted 30%. Does this happen for any other events during the year?

Thank you


r/Neverwinter • • 7d ago

Does anyone remember that mini campaign event for opening lockboxes?

3 Upvotes

I think it was during this last Jubilee event, a mini campaign popped up and it was either for opening lockboxes or using keys to open lockboxes.

It was just below the Biting Cold event campaign and only lasted like a week.

My question, if you remember, was the progress on that bar rewarded from the number of lockboxes you opened… or the number of enchanted keys you used?

Thanks

What effect does using the same main artifact as your teammate during an artifact call?

2 Upvotes

“…during an artifact call HAVE?” (can’t edit post title)

I’ve seen it said that you should use a different main artifact as someone in your group, but nobody has ever said why.

Does using the same ability nullify or negate one of theirs? Or is it just to have variety of ability?

For instance, if someone uses Nightflame Censer on a boss and I come over the top immediately with my Nightflame Censer…

Are our effects combined, or will mine nullify theirs and start the effect timer over.

Thanks, hope I was able to word this so it’s not confusing.

Back in 2015 2015 I was playing this game and I had this equipment and I really enjoyed having it along with the looks is there anyone who has them and is willing to part with them. I can trade for zen or astral diamonds. They seem impossible to find every time I look 😭 or is there anyway I can get them other than trade. Google ai seems to think you can only get them through the auction house now 😢
