    Kind of Spoilerly but not really.

    Neverwinter: PC

    I play on Dragon. both fighter classes are somewhat underpowered and it takes a lot of gear and skill to make up for it, meaning that the average group doesn't know any better or bothers inviting them. Nearly every group is some 5man combination of 2x cleric, 2xwizard, 2xrogue. 2xcleric groups...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Oh so all of you guys have seen the episode early too? Jeez wtf hbo I want early access. considering how little time has been dedicated to robb/cat's story this season I'm surprised that a non-book reader even put it in the same category as Ned's tbh. Remember that people who've only watched...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    a non-book reader who somehow gets early access to shows before they air over at imdb posted about the episode. He didn't spoil the episode but he said "what happens in the last few minutes of the episode rivals ned stark's execution in sheer shock value"

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    In this context we're discussing what non-book readers have been shown in the TV series and what they believe. I assume everyone who's posting in this thread has read the books and already knows this. While this is the correct interpretation for those who've read the books, the way it was shown...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    what? I think you have it backwards. Both are referred to as the "Red God" in the show, and all the non-book readers I know assume it's the same god. The only time he's referred to as R'Hllor is in High Valyrian, and as the Lord of Light is by Melisandre. All of Westeros refer to him as the...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I said "from what viewers have seen", as in, people watching the show who haven't read the books, so your point about book details is irrelevant. Non-LoL faith stuff they've seen: Ned praying to the old gods and having his head lopped off. They've seen Sansha preying to them, having her dream...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Nah this is pretty much it exactly. She believed she always had some power but definitely used conjurers tricks/etc to keep up a front that she was more powerful than she was, but now that magic is coming back in to the world she needs her tricks less and less. also from what viewers have...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Well in the books only Arya, Samwell, the other NW guy who becomes the Recruiter/singer guy actually go to Braavos. Gilly/Aemon/Mance Jr are there but on the ship and never enter the city. They're only there for about 2 days (basically 1 scene's worth of show time) and then head to Old Town...

    I've ran my cleric through every dungeon thus far (lvl 39) with PUGs and the only dungeon that my group has died on was Throne of Idris. queue group was TRx2, GWF, CW, and me a DE. We wiped to Idris twice before downing her, but then again we almost wiped several times to zone trash. First...

    No that guy died. Anyone who blows the horn dies. With the possible exception of Danaerys as she has enough "blood of the dragon/old valyria/whatev" to be mostly* immune to fire. The black priest with Victarion was sent by the High Priest in Volantes, he was sent to council Dany, and he's...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Who gives a shit what Stannis thinks? Or the people of Westeros for that matter? It's R'Hllor who cares what blood is sacrificed to him, or barring that Melisandre. In her mind Targaryen blood counts, Baratheon blood counts, even Mance Rayder's blood counts. So yes, absolutely Khal Drogo's...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    It's not, nor did I ever make a statement suggesting that. I said it was annoying knowing something for 5 books that this character doesn't know, and watching her (and more importantly Stannis) do all this stuff based on that lack of knowledge.

    The 100k Dothraki of his Khalasar to start with. In addition to the nobles of each of the free cities that paid tribute to him as he passed through to prevent his khalasar from sacking their cities. 100x more people consider him a "king" than Stannis Baratheon, yet he's still a King. Khal...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    When the fuck is Mel going to get a clue? The one thing I find really irritating in multiple POV books is when you know something as the reader that certain characters do not, and they continuously make bad decision after bad decision based on their lack of knowledge. It's fine when I don't...

    Avast is now flagging the patcher as malware and automatically deletes it (well moves it to the virus chest) Ran into this issue and haven't been able to get on all morning.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I've read the books so I don't wanna intrude on this thread, but if you watch the Season 2 extra's (history and lore of Westeros) they give a bit more back story than the show can, while still keeping the lore true to the Show (where it's been changed in the show vs the books) The obsidian vs...

    I did both of these dungeons leveling up. I "tanked" the Mad Dragon on my rogue, never wiped, no one even died. that dungeon can probably be done without a cleric, might even be easier without one if your group is full of bads that doesn't understand how healing aggro works. That fight is...

    Neverwinter: PC

    Well I like the Rogue Power's and Feat (talent) trees because leveling up you naturally rank 3 your available powers which happen to be the ones you will actually use. As you get new powers you drop a point in them, realize they are bad, and go back to using your rank 3s. then you look at the...

    Boss fights get harder via more hp and more diverse adds/aoes but i wouldnt say difficult unless your in a pug full of bads. As far as rogues go youll use the powers your given during the intro for pretty much everything through lvl 60. Sly flourish will be replaced with duelist flurry in...

    I can't even remember DDO though I played it at launch, so I can't really compare the two. NW is like a first (well, third) person Diablo-esque Action MMO set in the Forgotten Realms setting of D&D. It has some of the better elements of a lot of MMOs out there (one example being companions...

    speaking of failing at being a rogue, what's the consensus on rogue builds? I'm just leveling, have a mostly single target dps build going, str/dex, mainly either passive + dmg or +AP gain type feats. Joined a PUG for a dungeon who were shocked that I wasn't pure AOE. From what attacks are...

    The choice of a handful of skills and the mapping of them is quite awesome actually. everything is within reach of WASD. Not since original EQ have I been able to play an MMO solely by WASD and mouse. Oh and mapping both mouse buttons to attacks so that you are always in mouselook mode is...

    It's like they don't want people to play this game. I couldn't register on their site because someone had already used my email address. That someone was me, because several years ago I bought Torchlight off of steam, and I guess I had to register on PW for that? yet they never sent me any...

    every racial cruiser 3 skill you have will give you that race's Battle Cruiser X (where X is your level in battlecruisers at the time of the change). Thus if you only have Caldari cruiser 3 and Battle Cruisers 5, you will lose the BC 5 and be given Caldari BC 5 instead. Whereas if you had...

    I said two types of Good pvpers and I stand by my statement. A solo player will be far better at doing everything you listed and more likely to be leading said gang than someone who thinks that solo is only 10% of pvp.

    EVE Online

    uh actually solo pvp will teach you about 80-90% of what you need to know about pvp. Basically there's only 2 types of "good" pvpers; those that know/learned how to pvp solo, and those who are really good at following directions from a good fc.

    the animations do seem stiff but I wonder if that has anything to do with the no targetting/no autoattack the game is using. I think in general the animations are intentionally slow and toned down a bit but necessarily so. Not defending them outright, they could make them more fluid, but...
