Any server?

[Malarchy]

Cake was gonna play that and me and Pownie were gonna stalk him it looks awesome!

[Xanthi]

Might try it, tho quite focused on tera and Neverwinter for my MMO fix

[Glavinius]

I dont remember but i think it was the same one that clar was in

[Glavinius]

So what server are you guys playing in??? I assume its the server Argent (pve-rp)

Btw Xanthi how is Neverwinter??

[Alikh]

I'm on argent yeah. Level 21 atm.

Because I probably missed what was said, give us realm name and i'll make a glorified Templar!

The realm name is "argent" and it's an RP server (not PVP).

[Drurian]

Which faction? I've started the download. Just looking at which class i'd enjoy the most

[Alikh]

The defiants.

Had missed your reply and question about Neverwinter. Current feeling is tad... Meh.

It has interesting stuff and things that could really make it shine but all this is overshadowed by the bugs in the system.

Good things:
Only tank class has block, rest have avoid skill in same button (similar to tera where you only block towards direction you're facing)
Player created content with foundry (basically mini instances you can do pretty much anything you want with)

Neutral things:
Rogue and Mage, the "good old" overpowered combo (at least compared to any other class)
Healing has completely different approach (Mainly folks actually have to use pots and avoid bad stuff to not die, healing is not that powerful)

Bad things:
Somewhat toxic community (You can basically ban all forms of communication off one person with enough reports for 24 hours)
Bugs overall (Melee warrior has something going on what I heard but the tank is totally broken. Welcome to play game that has tanks block mechanic is broken (and getting reply from devs basically that it's not broken) and tank is not really 100% needed in instances(healer dps combos have done end game content))
Moneygrabbing system (everything costs money really, for example respec of talents.)

[Alikh]

It's bad when they don't add value for real money. Stuff like respeccing which you might have to do often, is not value, so it should not cost more than maybe an initial cost.

This is like letting people in a ride for free and then ask money to exit the ride.
