Re: Monks

I think it's fairly obvious that a class that can push 50 spell resistance, gets epic weapon specialization, blinding speed, epic dodge and receives a host of other goodies just for pureclassing is a little (no real emphasis on the little) busted. There's a reason every other player is a monk curren...

Strange spell wasting glitch

I recently rolled a wizard and have found it seems to be plagued by a strange glitch that wastes their spells per day currently, and two of my friends also playing wizards have complained of the same issue. Upon transitioning to a new server you will have all your spells per day but occasionally aft...

Re: Neverwinter Nights EE coming to consoles

You know what Vincent instead of crying about everything, why dont you just go find a server that is still running 1.69 and you can play to your hearts content with your many others, until at the end of the year the game stops even with the mods and workarounds because there is zero support anymore...

Re: Neverwinter Nights EE coming to consoles

Sure, this is true. But actually having a company that works on the game and is going to update it LIKE THIS UPDATE is a great boon. I'm also in support of consoles getting the game because it means I can soon play with a friend who has a switch but isn't much of a computer gamer. I am optimistic f...

Re: Neverwinter Nights EE coming to consoles

Not really a scam when the game would have stopped working as soon as another edition of windows was released, from how other games I have of that time period are behaving. Of course they're doing it for money, it's a game company and they're not a nonprofit. More money = moreally pay for them to a...

Re: Neverwinter Nights EE coming to consoles

Anyone with two eyes can see Beamdog is just prioritizing porting this game to every console in existence in the hopes of scraping together a few more bucks. I am very dubious actual improvements are on the horizon, I'm sure the new renderer is just a bit of flashy graphics made to entice first time...

Re: Monster Creep and Dungeon Difficulty - Is it a problem?

You don't need a PowerBuild to solo most the epic content. A pure wizard/sorcerer, for example, with no optimised gear and no disc nor UMD can solo the entire server except from Paush. If there's something I'd like to see regarding epic dungeons, is at least one of them which necessary requieres a ...

Re: Dragon Buff

The writ doesn't require you to kill it, and the monsters you face in the levels just before the dragon feel more than appropriate, particularly those annoying mages with Isaac's.

Re: Where have all my vials gone?

It does seem a bit strange but who knows how magical items work. Maybe mojo is quite a sticky substance and its lingering residue leaves the vial unusuable for further concoctions, and it has to be added to the healing potion formula which is why you can't just use the mojo vial in the first place.

Re: Water/food system

Realism is only relevant as far as good gameplay is concerned and it's worth noting Arelith isn't a survival simulator. While this by itself would be reason enough to debate the system's merits there's also the fact there's nothing very realistic at all about chowing down five of your rations and bo...

Re: "Tall" height and hitboxes

I've scaled objects on my module and noticed they retained the hitboxes they originally had. I'd assume it's the same deal for NPC scaling but I can't say for sure.

Re: Nerf Pale Master

Uh... yep, that's what I said, lol.

From the wiki: on top of the vanilla spell slots, each level of Pale Master adds +1 caster level for necromancy spells and every 2 levels adds +1 caster level to non-necromancy spells.
