Hordes of the Underdark Interview

The Neverwinter Vault has conducted an interview with BioWare members (including Trent Oster, Darcy Pajak, Sydney Tang, and Tom Ohle) working on the Hordes of the Underdark expansion for Neverwinter Nights. Check it out:
Q: Did the item crafting system make it into the expansion? If so please tell us more about it.

A: We have added 4 new ways to create items while playing the Hordes of the Underdark. The Craft Armor and Craft Weapon skills allow you to create your own weapons by first crafting components out of base materials and then combining those components into a weapon or suit of armor. The Brew Potion and Scribe Scroll feats support the creation of scrolls and potions while the adventure is ongoing. Both systems make for some exciting new options for equipment. Additionally, we added dynamic item properties to the scripting language, so weapons and items can be modified during gameplay. You want to upgrade your sword from +2 to +3 or change the color of your leather armor to blue? Not a problem.
