More than people complaining about NS4, I hate people (like this j@ck@ss!) that complain about complainers... for christ's sake... by the time this "beta" is finished no one will be playing this game... a little criticism (within reason) hopefully prods along the development. Everyone here wants to ...

Normally I wouldn't waste my time making a post like this, but after watching some friends play NWN today I just can't hold back... NS4 is falling apart... it's down 2 servers... and the 2 remaining servers are about as reliable as a Yugo. The DC100 web exploit is still alive and well... kinda defea...

It's called a PERSISTENT world... scheduled resets every hour?!? Man, that would suck... why not give 'em time to fix the problems instead of just avoiding them?

Yeah, I agree that the turn-to-stone and lose XP trick is a dirty one... to me that would definitely constitute griefing considering casters have better spells with higher DCs that can kill you without an XP loss. I'm not going to get into the whole high level killing low level debate... that's an e...

Even with all the complaints, bugs, hardware failures and crashes... I think it's safe to say that everyone playing the beta has had fun at some point or another. Isn't that the point of a game in the first place? Unless the DMs and developers are banking 6 digits from Bioware, I think we all should...

The original post was not a complaint... merely a statement of fact. Casters have it ridiculously easy early in the game... the amped up summons just make it that much easier... but in a world full of level 40 guys running around with tons of heal kits, a caster really will be up a creek without a p...

Well, I learn something new every day (Spura) I'm not sure where I got the idea from that a school would add +2 to DC... however that just makes the situation worse... so now it would appear that the maximum DC (as best I can calculate) is 45. That's very beatable on a regular basis. Poor casters.

A very good suggestion (assuming you're a caster) but one that hasn't been implemented or even suggested by a developer... guess I'll just hold onto my caster build a bit longer and hope for the best.

Bigsby's is a FORT save... if you can beat their FORT save why not just go ahead and use death magic and kill them? At early levels (1-20) I can see both Bigsby's and death magic causing problems for melee characters... but just by leveling from 21 to 40 all melee characters will get +10 to all save...

IcemanXV made some good points, but he does not address my problem... Once everyone reaches level 40, explain to me how a caster will go about killing a melee character? Power Word Stun? Power Word Kill? These spells will not even phase (0% chance of success) a melee character despite the fact they ...

I do not believe it is possible for any caster to exceed DC47 on any spell and I will not believe it until I see differently. I have read everything imaginable on casting and I firmly believe that DC47 is the maximum given the playable subraces. The DC47 required a +5 INT helmet in addition to +5 IN...

The absolute maximum INT a character will have is 50 (and doing that really wrecks your build) So there is +20 on a spell's DC... assuming you take all 3 spell focus feats (focus, greater focus, epic focus) that'll add 6... your base is a 10 + spell level so we're up to 45 (20 + 6 + 10 + 9) and it i...

I've been playing on NS4 nearly since the beta was opened to the public and I've spent most of my time playing various casters. At level 13 it's entirely possible for a caster to have a DC30 on Finger of Death (DC33 if you're really serious about death magic) Ok, so you're a level 13 character runni...

Account name: Rodney Smith Character Name: Harvester of Souls Problem: When attempting to login in, it attempts to portal me to the correct server and then explains that either the server is unavailable or that my character is in an invalid location. Location: To the best of my knowledge this charac...

I want to know where or how you know that Improved Spell Resistance does not stack with a sub-race bonus. Where do people read these things? I search the forums and see nothing... I hate finding out this crap after I've already started my character. Anyone?
