Nightfall PC Gamer Thread

inscribtions = end of inherent mods. now 15^50 will behave like mods, I wonder how much a 15^50 mod will cost though lol. but hey, now I can salvage a 15^50 mod from a sucky skin with high req and put on a better skin with low req. nice....hope i'm not dreaming
Former Ruling
lol to inherent mod buying.
20Mil? No thanks, I'll buy a White max dmg Crys Sword for under 100k, and buy the mods for it (15^50 mod probably wont be over 100k after the period of price inflation that comes with chapter release)

no mounts, however the fact you ride worms is got to be a major coolness factor.
From the sound of things this game is going to be in the top selling list for sure.

... and Nightfall may be looking good, but it is impossible to top Prophecies.
and for everyone going crazy for the damn wurm, settle down it's not even a "real" mount(to the extent that mounts work in other games). And it looks like there's only one zone or area where you can even use the thing.

I didn't think they could announce any cooler things for the game than what's already been said, but then they just made it 10x more awesome with all of these new details. It definitely sounds like it will be more fun than all the good gameplay of both existing chapters combined. Wow!!
I'm also very glad that they are adding more assassin and ritualist skills, that will certainly make many people happy. Plus, the new "elite mission" area that sounds like it won't be tied to HoH wins or faction farming. Yay!

I'm glad they announced the three challenge missions are seperate from the 20 storyline missions. So we know for sure the 20 are all real missions and not fake missions.

As for "impossible to top Prophecies." I, too, have great fondness for Prophecy, and I'm not going to say it's better based on an article.
However, it certainly has the potential to be better than Prophecy, and I won't begrudge it's chances!
Lawnmower, Jeff Grubb has written lots of modules, created game settings, actually written RPGs (like Marvel Super Heroes), and written lost of books based on games like Starcraft, WoW, D&D, etc.

Raziel665 Did I say bore you? I meant bore me.
Oh well, here goes:
List of Heros
Koss: male, Sunspear (note: the Sunspear is a group made of all Professions, he's not necessarily a Paragon)
Melonni: female(?), foe of the Kourna (?).
Dunkoro: older male, advisor to Sunspears
Acolyte Jin: young female, member of Zaishen order
Acolyte Sousake: Male, Elementalist of Zaishen order
Master of Whispers: Older Male, (Human Elementalist perhaps?)
Zhed Shadowhoof: Male centaur
Tahlkora: female runaway
Margrid the Sly: Male(?) mercenary
Norgu: male actor (Mesmer?)
Goren: male bodyguard
Morgahn: female, former Kourna General (listed as male in PC Gamer as mistake)
(the ones I have questions on their sex is because it is not explicit in the description)
Heroes primeries are set, but you can give them secondaries, supposedly.
There's pictures of the Master of Whispers and Acolyte Jin, and they both look like they'd fit right in with Factions.

Sold! Can't wait till it comes out! Oh... and I hope Anet does the whole Mad King thing for Halloween cause I missed it last year.

i'm also looking forward to the following things mentioned in the article:
- a mission involving mini-games utilizing ale/drunkeness and dancing
- a skill that allows the dervish to transform into an avatar of one of the 5 gods, and momentarily gaining a godly skill of some sotr
- the mysterious 6th god who was not included in the original panthenon of the 5 gods and is nw royally pissed off
- delicious screenshots of flying or at least hovering bird like enemies, w/ wings
- it said something about wings that stuck out on the paragon's armor to help him hover a bit, but i didn't really see that in the images
- floating castles, islands, oasises
- more dialog trees, npc's/collectors whose behavior will change depending on your non-completion/completion of quests
- that realm of torment sounds like it could be another uw/fow =)
i can't wait !

Worm/wurm riding is cool, but i think it won't be too awesome. The realm of torment sounds nice from what I hear from you guys (I need to buy one myself ) Im soooo glad I've already ordered the CE.

Hmm, so if I understand, the minipet you get from the mag is gone when Nightfall goes gold?
Anyway I gotta get my hands on a pet like that, too bad PC Format is not easy to obtain here.

Anyways TY to a-net for doing all of this. This game sounds great cant wait for it, plus skill for Rits and sins even though i dont play them.

What really bugs me is that my PC Gamer doesnt have a code for gray giant mini or im totally blind. And I hope the ending realm isnt too gruesome, it said there were guts and dismembered parts everywhere, which i don't exactly enjoy.
The wurm thing sounds kinda cool, it is in no way a mount, but basically you become it while in that area.

Oh, and Hyper Cutter, I like the Avatar of Lyssa! Of course, Dwayna's the best looking, blue skin FTW.
ShadowbaneX
actually you don't even need that any more. You'll probably be able to take any max damage item even whites and then just start slapping on the mods that you want. Got a white fellblade in FoW, throw on a 15 over 50 mod, +30 fort and sundering and you've got yourself a blade. Granted it'll probably be blue in colour, not gold, but it's the stats and skin that count, not what colour the item's lettering is in...even then modding gold items is going to easy as well.
Hummm, everyone's making waves over the damage mods. I wonder if you're going to be able to take, say 10% half cast times or recharge times and salvage those as well.

About the "Inscriptions": I just re-read the sentence in question.
So, the question is, what do they mean by "most"?
But the next sentence really has me puzzled:
OK, at first I just ignored this because I thought they didn't understand the 5 part armor system in Guild Wars. But since it falls right after the "Inscription" sentence, is it possible they meant Runes? What does everyone think?
