Neverwinter: Swords of Chult Hits PC


Perfect World Entertainment today launched the latest update for Neverwinter, the Swords of Chult.

This update, which is set to come to consoles at a later date, introduces the Merchant Prince’s Folly skirmish, a dynamic, 5-player skirmish available at end game. In addition, quality of life updates hope to make inventory management much simpler and straightforward, with the ability to sort, identify, and sell treasures.

And last but not least, in order to make the game more alt-friendly, players with multiple characters will be able to create a Signet of Patronage to help their alternate characters through the game’s campaigns. More information can be found here, or you can watch the handy video below.

Protector’s Jubilee Returns To Neverwinter: New Rewards/Events


It’s back! Like the McRib, the Protector’s Jubilee only comes around once every so often to the delight of its audience. While Neverwinter’s event may not be glazed in barbecue sauce, it does offer a host of freebies and sales during the week long event. Beginning Tuesday and running through June 26, players will be able to take part in several events including Elminster’s Messages which will task you with traveling to various zones to complete quests as well as the Protector’s Speech Skirmish, an instanced party mini-game involving the protection of Lord Neverember himself.

During the event, you’ll also be able to get your hands on free goodies including the bag of holding and level 60 experience boost. You’ll need to log in each day to claim the new item.

Neverwinter: Celebrate Gond By Making A Doohickey This Weekend

Wonders of Gond tasks players with collecting Wondrous Grommets, mechanical components that are then combined into higher tiered items. As you continue to refine the Grommets into higher tiered goods, you’ll eventually create the Doohickey, a name that I did not make up for this news piece. The doohickey can be used in battle or traded in for a Creations of Wonder Pack which in turn can be opened for rewards.

Lucky players can obtain an Apparatus of Gond mount as well as a number of other goodies from the Creations of Wonder Pack. The event run this weekend until May 22, and also happens to coincide with a double experience weekend beginning and ending at the same time.
