    Here are today's Neverwinter Nights forum highlights. Please take into account that these are only single parts of various threads and should not be taken out of context. Bear in mind also that the posts presented here are copied as-is, and that any bad spelling and grammar does not get corrected on our end.

    Psionics: As Torias said, Mindflayers are in the standard Monster Manual, so why not use them. Psionics won't be in the NWN Engine, you should get over it...

    Rings: Won't change. You can only wear 2 magical rings in DnD by the book. As a sidenote, all items now require that they are equipped to use their power (if applicable, meaning if the item can be equipped into a slot).

    Intimidate: intimidate is in

    Weapon Master: I think Blinding Speed is also on the Weapon Master's list now, it was just added very recently.

    Camera: In hordes the camera will stop at the standard view if you pan it down. If you press the down key again, it will continue "unlocked".

    Quote: ok, Im assuming that if Psionics are done through the spell system then it's a new spell type power and not a variation on Charm Person. Wrong?

    Yes, they are handled as "Special Monster Ability", just like gaze attacks, etc. The "AltMessage" is not "Monster casts unknown spell" but "Monster uses psionic atttack". For some of abilitites SR or Spell Immunity does not apply, because they are treated as "special abilities"

    Quote: Coolness. Im going to guess that you can then give that power to other monsters?

    Sure.

    Derek French, Assistant Producer

    Patch 1.32: Due to some more localization delays, the 1.32 Update has be rescheduled to be released on Monday, September 22nd. Sorry for the delay.

    Tom Ohle, Communications Associate

    Unlocked Camera: Actually, in Hordes, the camera is unlocked by default. Also, to use the unlocked camera in the current game, just do this:
    Hit the Shift + ` key to bring up the console. Type in "unlockcamera 1" and you're done!

    Weapon Master: Well, it does take a fair number of levels to get to Weapon Master... probably the most out of any of the PrCs in Hordes (don't quote me on that, though--I haven't done any real research into the subject)... cool class, though. My current character is one (though I built him horribly... 10 Ranger / 4 Fighter / 1 Weapon Master... so sue me, I suck at making useful characters)
