Power Changes, Campaign Patch Accompanied By Playstation 4 Hints And Event Updates

You might be disappointed with the lack of content of the Maze Engine, but it looks like the devs have been working on a lot of stuff that apparently was scheduled to be introduced within the Module, just not at start.

Summer Festival Sahha

The first big addition can be witnessed right now in the month-long Portobello campaign and behind the scenes Cryptic is already prepping the next big seasonal in the Summer Festival as well as Neverwinter’s third anniversary event. We already reported that a sports challenge called “Sahha” will make it to this years edition and it looks like players will be using a specific set of powers (At-Wills, Encounters) to play it. Additionally the latest patch on the preview contains icons that hint at an extended event profession as well.

Meanwhile the anniversary will come with yet another throne, this time featuring a Gargoyle, and a Gift of Simril system:

The second intriguing addition is a new damage boost gained from various Mount and Pet powers. The Radiant Weapon bonus grants 2% additional damage as radiant damage for 12 seconds. You may have no more than 8 stacks of Radiant Weapon from any source. Stacks are gained from a new Celestial Lion’s companion attack and passive, Celestial Lion’s Mount Combat Power and two more Equip Powers. It’s not clear whether the name Celestial refers to the Vault of Piety.

Last but not least, the game now includes strings for the Playstation 4 and it looks like rumors that the game will enter its second console market are indeed true. Several UI tooltips have gotten a PS4 representation.
