Neverwinter Community Watch

The Community Watch is a recurring format on the weekends that summarizes interesting stories, forum posts, links and news in the Neverwinterverse that are worth reporting, but don’t warrant a full own post. Here’s what happened during the last week:

• Outside some minor changes related to the Winter Festival the official wiki hasn’t been very active lately.
• Some questions on the official subreddit are asked over and over again. So the guys are trying to do something against the unnecessary repetition. They also called for help on the matter. To help you need a certain reputation on the wiki though.
• Youtubers DEATHGUN, Garlaanx and FNHUSA57 have you covered on the ongoing Double Currency event.
• Would you still play Neverwinter if it went Sub base?
• Is it best to force rainbow parties in PVP?
• Blog GamingSF shared some general thoughts on falling damage, which is also present in Neverwinter.
• Gift scammers are annoying to legit players and the community discusses how to deal with them.
• Here’s some good old rant against elitism.
• ICYMI: Wanderer’s Fortune is a must-have Insignia Bonus.
• After some players received a survey on lockboxes, a new one has been emailed by PWE. This time they ask for your favorite module amongst other stuff.
