Zone is dead in comparision when campaign started but lucky still there are time phazes when somebody needs worm or dark. It is rare but still possible.
I started playing the game back in 2016. Played for a little while with my son and his friends. They moved on to other games because they were teenagers. I played for a few more months by myself, and then stopped. My son talked me into coming back in March this year. I play pretty much daily now. Unfortunately, BG3 came out and he’s been busy with that one. So I’m back to playing by myself again.
As a player coming back to Neverwinter after some time off, playing catch up is frustrating so i bought out this campaign and got the weapons and as a mid tier player it helps to push on to harder content. Worth it in my opinion and it's Christmas and Zen is on sale.. go enjoy folks and Merry Christmas.
Really were never a fan of these weapons. Was always dodging on my ranger to animation cancel; and never had control over when I was hitting CA that I would guarantee the proc when desired. And im a guy who overthinks the crud out of his rotation when playing. Something I doubt 95% of the playerbase could play similar to. I struggle to see majority of the playerbase making any use of its strengths that allows it to be on par. Much rather send them off to Dragonvale for the perma 5% power + w.e buff chance they get when procc'ing encounters based on role. Which is amazing as DPS in RC with cooldown debuffs. Because 7.5% recharge ontop of all your 30+ second skills is huge. I still use them to this day for open world farming to bring my power to 90% wthout buffing. While the grind itself is completely solo able - in a campaign that allows you to get 300/1000 of it done in a single week - and once you obtain it on one character. You'll be sitting on over a dozen account bound boxes to gear your entire roster in 1700 antique vale weps. (Those weps you see selling for 300-400k on market from crown of keldegon) Thats my F2P opinion on the subject. (not that im F2P in the slightest. lol) Edit: Also - why da hecc did it promote an 8 month old video to me. 😂 just noticed this now.
Can you make a guide on how to get better weapons as you progress from start to finish? I cant find one online and armor is decently straight foward using seals.
Got the stormforged daggers a month ago, been using the spider God token gear and weapons for AGES, was so happy to get the upgrades and something new. Currently grinding for Mirage and trying to find groups to get Perfect edge or any mythic gear.
@aragon maybe I missed it but in the video not sure it shows or you state that you need the Brilliant Cabochon Gem which is from Master Temple. Does the pack come with the Gem? I don't run Master so it's been my hold up...
Can u explain to me Aragon why the shield glitch hasn't been fixed?? Not being able to use scrolls as a tank is garbage, they need to fix the damn bug man its annoying its game breaking and resource draining, please bring to their knowledge about this issue, but sure if its every console and pc but I'm on Xbox
@@Aragon- man that's really unfortunate, I just recently got at end game with tank and oh boy is it bad, well thank you for answering Aragon thanks for all the help :)
If you havent gotten to masters content yet, id rather see you using mw to help the team. Old, new doesnt matter the team will appreciate the extra dmg and dr boost. This goes double for tanks and healers, if youre not using mw as a support youre not helping the team as much as you could. Also forgot to mention that for these weapons to actually be effective you need to know when to active the passive and make sure you have the most uptime as possible on them.
I rather use "free" weapons i can grind and use my AD for things like enchants. I would argue beeing able to do better is worth more than some buff for others that half of the time dont know or dont care about boss mechanics and somehow dont do appropriate damage on high ilevel...
@hurstiwursti go ahead but if you and another player pme me asking to join my group and you both have same gear but he has mw and you have stormforge, I'm picking the guy with mw 100/100 times. Mw = team player, team players usually do well in all content because they understand playing as a team is the best way to get things done.
Mirage on bard is ridiculously op, it uses the rogues duelist flurry animation but attacks with fleche magnitude. Maybe when they nerf mirage they might be alright depending on content
hi aragon, i recently bought a companion pack from reaper to get the tamed velociraptor, i went to equip it and bc it said i had it i discarded it, thought it would bound to account when i went to check i didnt have it. Do you know how to contact devs?
If i could do that many dmg to end HE solo, i would not even think about getting new weapons, i had 4ppl random ppl on that sragon and it was like impossible to do, but u can do it solo, my gosh, u cheat or what ?

@@hurstiwursti some elite players are moaning like crazy the Mirage Set is out DPS'ing their new shiny high item level weapons... So rather than up the new weapons damage they are praying for a Mirage Nerf. Everyone can get the Mirage set from grinding... no end game content needed.
Common what a clickbait, shame! Dont buy progress, none! Whole campaign you can do alone. Even small weekly heroics.You need 5 ppl with major heroics about 5 times at last chain of end quests.
I disagree. Do not pay $ for zen for these. Aragon just selling shit for cryptic. Use Master crafted weapons or mirage or perfect or new weaps. Do not use zen its not worth $$ Do the campaign if you need these weaps.
You don’t have to spend real money to get Zen, at least on console, the wait to convert AD to Zen is only 2 or 3 months. I haven’t spent any real money on this game in years and have over 50,000 Zen, leave Aragon alone, he’s just trying to provide information, what you do with it is up to you!
@@exxabkgaming3349 Not really. Outside of the VIP, zen purchases broke no major advantages. That flipped with the last update, where the campaign tokens for dragon hunts and Underdark give you access to high level equips. Even w/companion & mounts, you'd have to grind them to mythic.
Neverwinter is Pay to win. there is no debate about it. What about this kind of videos you are releasing ? What's the point ? Stormforged long grind ? realy ? you are telling to the new/casual player to spend real money in the game to get stronger.. this is a shame. You must delete this video and do another where you are telling to Cryptic what's wrong with their economic system and.. the game in general
@@Aragon- That does not change the fact that mirage is best for the most current content. Do the tests and post the results. The title of this vid should have been "The best weapons for Random Q's"
Did this some weeks ago and there were still alot of ppl doing this campaign! Didnt have much problem to find groups for the heroic encounters! 😊
Same here, and i pop in the zone to see if there are folks needing H.E help...
After weekly reset when everyone does the heroic weekly it still works with some zonechat.
Other days it depends on time and such.
Good to hear you can find people to help do the heroics. :)
Zone is dead in comparision when campaign started but lucky still there are time phazes when somebody needs worm or dark. It is rare but still possible.
yup it is fast if u dont chase, actually i got em just so random first blashpeme and then those decent weps :) just play the game and u will get them

Watched one of your earlier clips highlighting these sets, when I started to play Neverwinter and these are STILL the ones I use today

Stormforged were worth it but the questline for it took hours

Sold stupid mirage weapons and now just rock these stormforged
@aragon maybe I missed it but in the video not sure it shows or you state that you need the Brilliant Cabochon Gem which is from Master Temple. Does the pack come with the Gem? I don't run Master so it's been my hold up...
you only need that gem for the spider totem which you do not need. You will not get any gems from the buyout
I wish theres an option to pay more and skip the quest, I already done it once, not happening again.
No sadly. Suck having to do the whole questline again. Campaigns should seriously be account wide
Thank you for your information video
Cheers :)
Im using storm ,since them got live.,
But, mythallar set agains Marilith set combined as AOE Gith Warlock vad u suggest or recommend?
Still working in mod29?
Great question. I am a returning player and would like to know this too.
I purchased and did not get the weapon maker only currency. So still have to complete your way until weapon maker appears which is around half way
you have to do what I do. The gold quests
@@Aragon- gold quests?

It is just an issue experienced on consoles. The devs cannot replicate it, so they don't know how to fix it
@@Aragon- man that's really unfortunate, I just recently got at end game with tank and oh boy is it bad, well thank you for answering Aragon thanks for all the help :)
To avoid the bug I’ve been using the tab shield and haven’t gotten the glitch since
I did the buy out and was not able to do all that I still have to do the quest
You have to do the quests still.

@@user-kv1ih9lf5e goof thing im running mirage until i get a more reliable weapon
Master Content are you referring to Master Craft ??
No, content with a (master) tag.
Temple of the spider (master)
Gzemnids reliquary (master)
Demonweb pits (master)
Etc
If I buy it, how many days will it take to rush? I'm sorry if I speak in the video and I didn't realize that I don't speak English
you can do it in one day, but you need people to help kill the worms and dragon
Thank you for clearing my doubts@@Aragon-
are they really that good i've been using mirage weapons on my bard would i be that much better off using my storm foge ?

You will need to contact customer support via Arc games website
That was silly man
i got the completion token and didnt get anywhere near as much as you did
omg its because i used them for the boons, sucks to suck
Yikes, yeah the boons take a lot of that currency :/
@Aragon- I will eventually get the weapons, maybe next week after reset
Please test weapon caldegon mater😢
I refuse to do any buy out, I want to play the game, taking shortcuts just makes me a weak player
Are these viable for support classes?
not too great, but better for healers than tanks
Wow only get purple on ps4 that bull
Is this better than the mirage set plz?
only in MtoS, mgr and Mdwp, yes

for multi target burst damage, yes, but otherwise it is one of the best if used properly, yes
Lol they Put them for sale 😂😂😂😂😂 but the perfect weapons are the pest ones anyway
Stormforged are much better in multi target short fights than perfect. Perfect weapons are good for long boss fights

Your literally asking to get banned man
