Yea sorry about that! M17 needed my attention and after doing too many expeditions I really am not in the mood anymore :D so most of my projects have been standing still a bit. Am picking up stuff again though!
May be a little dated but as a new player this video was great. This game has so much going on if you’re just starting I have hardly any idea what is progressing me towards what and I have gotten off track several times. I find the time locks on quests quite frustrating because I’m often not sure if I’m missing something or if it’s just time gated. Very weird mechanic but I guess it is to help prolong interest. Great job.
Glad to be of help! I do agree, for older content the time locking should be removed altogether or at least loosened massively! Also, I can see what you mean with theres an overflow of option. In my opinion, together with removing time locks, the game should also guide you into doing the campaigns in order like the other players did. That way doing old campaigns doesnt feel pointless because they are super easy and give no rewards at all. If you do stuff in order,campaigns will provide steady upgrades as older players also had....
@@Krowwfather702 Quest in a list: - 2 recon quests per day - every 2 days, you can do 2 warden expeditions - every 6 days, you can do 2 fragment expeditions - campaign is done after 12 days (4 fragment expeditions)
does combat advantage not work as it should? cause as a dps there are many bosses i cant physicly walk behind... or is it for normal mob group clears? like is the damage with combat advantage that much higher? PS: and what would that mean for tanks? obsolete stat or how does it come into play at all... Combat Advantage?
When they change the formula as they said on the forums. Combat advantage will actually double the damage for crits and non-crits. So yes it's a big difference. For bosses which you can't get behind.. there are other ways to get combat advantage. Some classes have powers that give combat advantage, some pets give combat advantage and there are more sources.
Those enemies for these quest hit hard. My control wiz has died a few times. I'm thinking of switching character but don't know which one is strong enough. I'm solo player xbox one.
Hi Maryanne, did you slot a decent companion/augment (rank 30+) and bonding runestones + companion gear? This is very important and easy to get... Just check my latest video :-)
@@RainerNW my companion is lightning thief rare has three epic rank 9 bonding and three epic rank 4 equipment with two offensive slots with rank 9 power, crit strike, and arm pen in slots.
@@RainerNW yep level up to 30 because it's rare. I don't have enough ad to but the tokens to upgrade to epic i wish though. Thanks for the help I'm a noob at this game. It might be fun to play but sometimes confusing or complicated.
a help please, i'm level 80 (i gained level very fast doing many dungeons) i am currently undermountain this new mod Uprising how to access? do i need to do undermountain first or another hood to get there? and there I can get better and "free" type weapons in undermountain where I earn coins and then change, still turn complete undermountain or better to go to another? It's pretty confusing, I'm a new player and just want better equipment haha thanks.
Hi oq, how to enter the uprising stuff is one of the first things I say in the video :-) You do need to finish the undermountain quest line first. At that point you will be given access to the second floor in Yawning portal - where you will be able to get the quest to Stardock. As for free weapons - for solo play the alabaster weapons are pretty decent and easy to get - even for newer players. Just run master expeditions 3x per day - each time you turn in the quest you have a random chance to get 1 piece of your Alabaster set. As for the other weapon sets. It depends how built your toon is. You most likely are not strong enough to go through Lair of the Mad Mage - but when you grind that dungeon, you can farm the Burnished set, which is better for multiplayer content. The lionheart set is totally out of reach for most people and the other sets are not worth it.
@@RainerNW thanks so much for the help, i don't speak english so so i didn't hear you saying at the beginning of the video i'm using translator, thanks so much for the help, i'm currently level 80 rogue with 60k of power and item level about 14k, i will finish undermountain
Once the campaign is finished is there a way to do more wardens and fragments to farm the gear? Or do u have to go back to getting intelligence and doing them every two days or whatever it is ? Or is it back to regular Me’s from 16
The cycle will stay as it is, but as I mentioned only the reconnaisance quests need to be done on a near daily basis. You can collect intelligence over time and burst use the intelligence on a seperate day
Thank you for the guide. I think the main quest should be completed in 12 days and not 16. Also could you please do the drop rate for zoc chest again. I want to find out if the new 1000 gear pieces drops from it.
@@RainerNW mainly for the npc that trades them, and do they drop where , is it only like the recoinnance mission with the few fight groups? I noticed there isnt entire map with those anyways. Oh and if you vip you can just use travel post to move to next one also with alone or with team in the maps.
The trinkets drop on the recon maps and in the expeditions indeed. If you want to farm them, dont leave the recon maps. Once you leave you can only enter with a new quest.
please dont do that mario sounds, your voice is calm and silent and then this super shitty loud music.. most people watch guides while laying in the bed.
Rainer, I think you are too talented to continue to waste your time on this game. You are limiting your own potential by investing time in Neverwinter. You should branch out and try to broaden your audience to grow your channel.
Appreciate it. I am thinking about broadening my scope, but I still have too many thing to do for Neverwinter to start with that just yet. I am thinking ahead though.
You've been quiet lately, glad to see you are good and still spoiling us with your content!
Yea sorry about that! M17 needed my attention and after doing too many expeditions I really am not in the mood anymore :D so most of my projects have been standing still a bit. Am picking up stuff again though!
Thanks for the video. Both informative and amusing. The Super Mario sounds gave me a good chuckle. 👍

"You cannot queue for Tower of the Mad Mage because", Cryptic, 2019.
Better to close it then to leave it open and ban who goes in I guess. But yea its a shame more big bugs happen and content cant be released
Great job as always, I was starting to feel lost in this new campaign, but i just need one more fragment run. Thx
It is a bit complicated indeed with all the new currencies and different expedition types.... Hope the video helped explaining this stuff a bit :-)
Mine just says recover the fragments 0/4 but I cant go or do anything
It takes 12 consecutive days to finish that quest. Every 6 days the counter will go up by 2 when you do the fragment expeditions.
Awesome video thanks as always
Youre welcome
Ok I’m trying to figure out how to get fragments of Zerthimon but you skipped it. So I’m a bit confused.
Each fragment expedition gives you 1 piece... so you get 2 every 6 days.. 4 after 12 days
That is the end of the campaign
Rainer ok so once I do the first two quest I have to wait until the next quest is available?

Glad to help :-)
Thanks for the info and great work!
Thanks
Great video....thx Rainer
Yw
Can anyone tell me how to get the lost scrolls you need for the guy in Stardock that sells artifact weapons?
Every time you beat ToMM you get 1 scroll. This is the only way to get them at this point.

@@RainerNW thanks for clearing that up
my lazy google a** :D
Can we get more than one of those 1010 IL companion gear or the quest chain can be done only once?
You can only do it once per toon sadly. But the gear stays account bound so you can easily transfer it from toon to toon
I’m stuck on the teaching of zerthimon 0/4 fragments is this like a daily or ? And am I ment to get the quests from so guy called Yrlakka?
Just keep doing the daily quests, warden expeditions and fragment expeditions. Every time you do a fragment expedition the number will go up by 1.

Very usefull dude..!! thx a lot
Nice video Sir Rainer. But any info about the TOMM, I unlocked it but still shows locked. My IL is 24.5k but still locked. I am bit confused.
The trial is "closed for repairs". There are some issues that need to be addressed before it opens up

What do the x2 weekly quests provide?
They give you "Intelligence" currency. Once you get 2 of a kind, you can "buy" a warden expedition
is there anything that I should hold on too before mod 17
Anything with incoming healing is typically good for m17
Thanks!
The grind is real. Also, how long did it take Nintendo to copyright claim this video?
Indeed and they haven't
Nice tips bro.. Can you do a vid on Zok when they upgrade his drop rate next week?
Yea, ill start collecting etchings again :-p
Is that for console only or PC drop rates will be updated too?

Sup man I'm on console do enegon comp go up in mod 17
Surprisingly on pc they havent really gone up much
Was expecting an guide tip for an trinket farming for the npc and tell what to do to give lost scrolls to npc also. But nonetheless good guide man.
Trinket farming... for the potions or transmutes? The shop is so disappointing. As for the scrolls - those come from TOMM

Looks like this new mod will be expeditions, expeditions and more expeditions 😐
