- Tower of the Mad Mage is the next big thing with tons upon tons of mechanics. In this video I will be explaining most of the mechanics and also how to prepare properly for TOTMM!
The trial has had some changes (mostly additions) since this video was made. If you don't mind reading, here is a full detailed description: guides.jannenw...

#Neverwinter #Rainer #MOD17
Nice dungeon 95% of the people cant play and finish that dung. Good one cryptic as always ty for this this is perfect 😁
Then you have to grind and farm i think its good that not all can run this
On his Firebomb explosion I think someone needs to run into it to set it off before it explodes ...
Great job bro.. Showing how 9 of us could beat it :D
Lol the early 'weak' version :D
Thanks for the tip as well - I also got that tip from sharp so I added it in a pinned message. Wasn't too sure about this one as I said in the video :-)
** First a disclaimer: most of the video is constructed during early access. On there the trial was a lot easier and I havent beaten the buffed version on mimic.
Alright I got some more information / corrections:
- The Firebomb Explosion mechanic, where a ball of fire grows - someone has to walk in to pop it before it explodes.
- Duumvirate which I mentioned in the video, the mechanic you see is actually called Hyporthermia. Duumvirate is a tank check where the tank is locked into place.
If I get any more info I will write it down here. I know some guys are busy with a written guide
- I will also post that here once it's done.
The best TH-camr who really did explained the mechanics , thank you , much appreciated bro 👌🏻
Happy to help!
Great vid Rainer. I have it linked in my discord and wrote out all the mechanics the best I could that you described in the vid. Someone told me that the Inexplicable Key is used for one of the end chests, I am stacking those keys now.
The trial will be hard, extremely hard... Good luck and nice summary :-)
thanks for all the great content you produce and congrats on almost 5k subs!
Thanks Manuel! 5k subs indeed wow :D
Thanks As Always Rainer. Fantastic Video
Glad you like it :-)
Damn man its gonna be expensive yo make demo set work. Gonna run music box set and see if I can hold my own. If not I'll just spend the AD. At work listening to this like an audio book lol
That second phase looks awesome as hell!
Haha indeed :D visually neverwinter keeps giving us goodies every mod imo :-)
Ty for this. Finally a mechanic video pre-launch :) I predict this video gets 500k+ views by the time it hits console ;)
Haha 500k that would be cool insane! You're welcome :-)
Man...after watching this a dozen times it really looks easy. Some of the mechanics the game has already trained us for. The fireball is someone walk into it do thats easy. Looks like dodge red (as always) and do dmg. This will be defeated before the weekend is up. Thank u. Fast n easy guide
It's correct that a lot of mechanics were recycled from old dungeons - but do not underestimate this trial :-) Looking at a well oiled team makes it look easy - but you have to know exactly how to react to everything instantly.
Anyway - hope you do well and if I catch it I will definitely be watching the stream :-) Good luck!
(also yes, the fireball you have to just walk into)
@@RainerNW only know fireball because your comment. Thanks for all u do. Glad to know such a cool ass dude. Have a good day boss
I'm finally ready for TOMM! 700k HP, (over)maxxed defense stats, and this is totally helpful!
Nice good luck and have fun in there :-)
@@RainerNW will do, as long as healers can keep me up
my god looks hard as good job finishing it
We finished it on owlbear a couple of times. Since then it has been massively buffed on preview. The mechanics are combined in tricky ways that make it more difficult as well as the damage values have been buffed. I don't think anyone finished it on mimic yet!
thanx for the tips it gave me an idea what to do as heals also.
Glad to help :)
loved the video...thank you so much for your time.
You're welcome! And have fun with the trial :-)
Gj man ty for this video really helps alot. What was in the chest?? Black opals?
No ... loot wasn't set yet but a nice list of rings drop only from Tomm chests and the new Lionheart weapons
What Dontez said (who is in the video by the way :-P). On Owlbear the chest contents weren't finished yet.
@@RainerNW ty for replying guys gj
Damn I was really hoping to be able to get straight into the trial. Now i have to somehow gain 3k item level lol
Haha don't just jump in... and also don't just pump up item level - this trial is insanely hard and you need to be fully built for it :-) Good luck!
@@RainerNW yeah. My main thing is enchantments and boons lol. So jumping in wont be possible at all
In other words a great deal of investment is the only choice left, sadly not all people can manage that...
@@ismaeltevenal7492 oh I quit the day after this comment lol
@@jonahi3543 Hey buddy, don't let my comment discourage you by all means, if you enjoy the game you should play it as do I, even if I take like a year or so to catch up then fall back abruptly again from next mod's adjustments ;)
Thank you bro trying to beat this Tower of the Mad Mage to get the trophy for the Undermountain DLC trophy list on Ps4 🏆 it's called Halaster Trial.
Wow. I stopped counting by the end of Phase 1! There must be 25-30 different things to keep track of.
It's extremely complicated indeed, and the trial is buffed even more recently ... The more complicated thing is that these mechanics are mixed now in very interesting ways.
Great video, thanks.
You're welcome!
Nice video! Tyvm.
1.What would be the best combination of artifacts between the 10 ppls in group?
2. And what about mounts power?
3. Is it ok for everyone to cast the artifacts and use mount power on this Boss (eg. Buff and Debuff ones) everybody at once or do you split usage of it.
I ask bc i dont know much about it.
Ty in advance.
I'm about to try this on live today, I hope they didn't change the mecs.
They did add a couple since this video - the ones in here are still the same - so it is a good base. Good luck!
@@RainerNW We've been failing a lot. Powerful group but no win so far. People are saying only 1% are making it to the end, and a patch might be needed. (tanks getting hit with 1 million+ damage...)
Tanks need to share aggro to lose debuff stacks... its not broken - you just need to know what to do. 2 teams who know are consistently beating it
@@RainerNW yeah I saw that in the chat, but sometimes one is a chicken ;)
Great stuff man(:
Thanks :)
I went in once and was not ready for it my whole team quit and left me in the dungeon.😱🤯😢
Well that's rude! ;-)
@@RainerNW I know rite😁
Thanks!
Thx so much, buddy @Rainer! ❤️
You're welcome!
I was told we might need 52k il for this trial
Oh lovely...
Ps: why to E Assault Rings? I thought they didn’t stack? And why Trobriands Ring as main artifact?
The melee bonus stacks 2 times. So if you have 2 rings - you cannot use the kiuno anymore for example (it's the same quip bonus).
Trobriand's Ring as main is actually not a good choice. You need group buff artifacts (TRex/Wyvern Knives/Lantern) or damage debuff artifacts (e.g. Forgehammer).
@@RainerNW you dont need bear armor. There is one armor with 10% power. I think its the best for dps. In mod 16 that bonus does not work.
@Angemon Ebony Stained Hide/Breastplate
Hey Rainer what's the party make for it means how many dps tank and heels we need + how many tanks heals and dps would be in a party of 5 for the trial
On early access we did it with 1 amazing tank and I think 1 or 2 healers. You need sufficient DPS to overcome the 2 dps checks (while the dps characters need to be tanky enough to survive the damage bursts!)
The composition most likely will still be the same since you still need a lot of dps.
Cap means anything over that is diminishing returns correct? Not fully wasted.
There are no diminishing returns "caps"... Cap here means higher has absolutely 0 effect.
@@RainerNWOk - I think that's a new addition/mechanic I was not aware with Mod17. Thanks for confirming.
That looks difficult as hell. What you get from the reward chest?
Unbound BiS rings and items for the Halaster set :-)
What do you think? A bunch of shit as usual and every single piece of new gear is locked behind this trial.
Did they make the caps higher then as they was 65k
Do you get combat advantage bonus dammge if you are facing the enemy and ur team is on his back?
Yes, that is the basic way of getting combat advantage :-)
Why must it be watcher, why not burnished ?
Watcher is a permanent buff in the trial that buffs 4 different stats. Burnished only buffs power and defense and depends on healer
Bundle up seems to be the mechanic.
How do you get the currency for the new weapons?
By beating ToMM..... 40 times... but it also drops in there - big change you will get them before you need to buy them.
@@RainerNW so I won't be able to get the new weapons before doing ToMM?
Edit: also do you use vorpal or poison?
You can only get the lionheart weapons by doing ToMM I'm afraid... I still use Vorpal - I also have a Bilethorn but for me Vorpal seems to work better.
@@RainerNW Ok cool, also just out of curiosity - bilethorn seems to have a bug were the Dot won't crit, does that work well with the owlbear cub passive?
i saw a your boons for a breif moment, why is it that u didnt put points into the crit or amor pen boons>
Probably maxed out with gear.
Because they're not a good investment for your boons. You want the Power, HP, Companion Influence and Movement Speed boons for ranks 1-3.
The flat stat boons are not worth the boon points, and I don't really need them
I thought on the stream they said no one was able to beat it?
Yesterday evening the first team beat it (not me). Its really really really difficult :-)
@@RainerNW
Awesome, so its doable lol
@@I8one2Many well I heard its been buffed once again and now the team who beat it thinks it is impossible lol... it was buffed in a wrong way... time to wait for a fix :-)
well rip. my offense stats are definetly good enough sadly im at like 250k hp and 65k defense. rip.... and i really dont want to lose dps hmmmm what to do what to do...
If you dont want to lose dps you will need more hp and 80k defense. Res sickness is a very big damage debuff and it cripples hp also... hard downwards spiral once you go down once or twice
@@RainerNW yeah im slowly figuring out how to get the hp and def without losing the damage. just expensive lol
Can't queue this on PS4. MMO might be dead...
For tomm/zariel you're better off making a group first. You cant just pug it
So basically someone needs to yell bundle up or spread out depending on mechanic?
Well optimally everyone know - so theres no delay
I'm a 27k paly w 645k hps...145k power....90k def...80k deflect...80k deflect....80k AP and CS..... Do I need to adjust my stats? If so what should I change to ToMM
@@christopherfears2312 crit avoidance should be 85k (not mentioned) and hp >700k hp would be best
Thanks!!!
Hmm, mechanics, I like ;)
Yea this trial is awesome :-)
beat it 5x yesterday 😎
Nice job!
@@RainerNW it was hard, but i watched ur vids so many times that it actually was doable. tyvm sir😎 ps keep the infovids up. we love you 4 it m8😁
@@psychovos6089 Will do :-)
no wonder no one does this one, been trying for a week not one que
They never do it with random pugs, it's typically a guild private run
Danke!
You're welcome!
nice
:-) thanks
Toughest dungeons/trials:
Zariel Challenge
TOMM
is that spike lag or ur editing
Oh I am slowing down the video to show the mechanics more easily ;-)
Omg....so it's unable do..so many mechanism...omg..
There's even more mechanics right now - positive thing is that they are grouped by element. Negative side is that you can get multiple at the same time... ;-) TOMM is intended to be hard
How the hell do players complete this at only 24k?
Can already tell that 75% of the console community isn't going to get through this. 😞
The percentage is most likely going to be even higher. On PC, mimic, nobody has finished it yet. Even the top of the elite. We finished it on owlbear but the trial wasn't buffed back then. Mechanics wise it was the same though
does barkshield help keep you alive, if u dont have all that 350k health?
It does help indeed! Barkshield works very good in the trial
Ppl gone be like:
hOsTiNg tOmM
I do hope that kind of capitalization stays in the 90's ;-)
this is overthought, fucked up and im happy im not chasing endgame anymore
I actually think the trial is amazing. Neverwinter needs challenging content - it's the biggest gap in the game to date!
This is the WORST mod neverwinter ever had. It has no content for vast majority of player base and will last till feb-march 2020. Normal players get ready to do ME's*(same map just different monsters) for the foreseeable future
Everyone is allowed their own opinion of course but I disagree. I think mod17 is amazing and brings a ton of great new things. The trial is the best queued content ever in Neverwinter. Visually the new hub looks great. The appearance system is great. We get some nice new announcement settings and we have a new race (maybe even the worst of it all)...
Agreed. The "end game" players now have something a lot more challenging right out of the gate that they won't be able to steamroll. As for the "vast majority" they'll have something to work towards.
It's like the x.b(half mod) days. It looks to have alot of great things added as well so either you haven't been playing long or just jumping to conclusions.
Its really nice to play the game again. follow mechanics and all, like taking Goristo into the portals on demo for example. I'm not part of the crowd complaining that I can't face roll my guardian fighter anymore, I love the trill of finally beating a boss who we've put in a bunch or tries on, then eventually getting really good at it? (my fav boss kill ingame was the 2nd in spellplgue
@@smsickler did they adjust the loot?
where loot noob
?
Wer spielt das noch ?
Viele Leute :-) Ich habe selber die Idee es sind mehr jetzt in Neverwinter aber schwer zu sagen.
