Combating Bots with Skill Node Changes

Cryptic Studios has implemented a series of measures to combat botting in Neverwinter. A new post today indicates that another action will be implemented soon. Based on community feedback, refinement item drops will be removed from all skill nodes. According to the post, Enchantments and Runestones will become more available through an increased drop chance from creatures throughout the game world.

For those looking to utilize skill nodes for something beyond professions, we are increasing how often they drop Insignias. Insignias are used in the recently improved mount system that was part of the Neverwinter: The Maze Engine expansion. In addition to being available in skill nodes, bound, uncommon Insignias will now have a chance to drop from most critters. Both of these updates will give adventurers more options to further customize their mounts.
