Many fans of the MMORPG Neverwinter have been waiting for this: With the update Swords of Chult, the developers are finally addressing the long-neglected PvP mode – now also on PS4 and Xbox One.
The past updates and expansions have mainly expanded the story of Neverwinter. The story has now reached the jungles of Chult, where players want to uncover the origins of a new threat to the Forgotten Realms. However, the development team has also dedicated itself to the PvP mode with the update Swords of Chult.
PvP gets more attention
These newcomers await PvP players:
- Toughness is no longer considered a PvP entry barrier
- New PvP buff for all players
- PvP items scale in PvP environments
- An improved PvP solo queue
- New PvP gear
The removal of toughness as an entry barrier in PvP battles is an important change, as toughness reduced control effects in battles. Those who had too little toughness on their gear essentially had no reason to enter PvP fights.
Instead of toughness, a general buff is now applied that all players receive upon entering a PvP zone. To ensure more fairness, your PvP items will also be adjusted to the appropriate level.
Many more improvements
Swords of Chult also brings these things:
- An improved inventory management with a faster and easier refinement function
- If your main character has completed a campaign, your other account characters will progress faster through the “Patron seals”
- The new battle “The Foolishness of the Merchant Prince” will take you to three random destinations. You will face random enemies there.
- With the flying carpet, you will travel on the first two-seater and flying “mount” in the game
All these new features, improvements, and optimizations are now also available to you on PS4 and Xbox One. The update Swords of Chult is now also available for the console version of Neverwinter.
Neverwinter is still an interesting MMORPG in 2018.
