    Kitty took another look at the weapon images and identified the weapons. She was originally incorrect about her statement that there's no blade but a sword. That's because she mistook magic sword into sword for she didn't take good enough look at that wizzie's pose. But there's no sword at all, but a poleblade instead.

    Kitty's gone. She gave up on PWI. And she's a black metal Kitty naow.

    One can only hope the mats are tradeable, if not tradeable, they are in large quantities. If they are neither of those, welcome our other 9 friends (alts) who go everywhere with us mDKCBAe.png​​

    Ahh you're right I got the first one wrong. It's a pike though and not a poleblade (though I have no clue what the difference is between those).​​

    If this gets much further off-topic, I'm going to have to close it.

    Cant you just simply move the off topic comments to a fresh tread you would make? Dont need to close this thread. New information about the G17 weapon may come in the future days.

    theres not really any point in ''discussing'' game related topicd in this forums anymore anyways .... ppl are just used to the gtfo mentality like my new best friend above.

    instead of arguing , this forum has derailed into some monkey playground, with poopoo flying all around, and biggest pile of **** gonna win.... feels like this quote about pidgeons and chess sometimes....

    then again, we did not have forum police for like 4? years now.. ppl just got used to beeing a **** and getting away with it. on that quote bout real world being harsh .. that maybe true ... luckily a online game has not so much to do with a real world, and can enforce its own rules ...


    Back to topic -
    lets just hope, g17.5 is gonna be the new warsouls (like the 35k usd ones we had years ago) - just not as expensive =) i feel like the extra defensive procs on all weapons gonna upset the stone scissor kind of pvp we got atm, by alot... just like sins did with open pvp... i personally didnt like it at all.

    on a sidenote : i do like the new skins :P ... just not the psychic one ^-^ .. but that has always been the problem with a football in psy hands...

    5aps purge fist lol

    If I get this for my seeker, not sure which weapon I would pick. Dual most damage, but damn I hate dual blades/swords >.>
    Would need perma weapon fash, but then I might have trouble with swapping between def weapon and that. Sigh what to do Dx

    I'm not going to spend that kind of time digging through the thread, and it won't stop it anyway, just like my warning didn't have much of an effect at all. It's not like we're even going to see this for another 6 months anyway, if at all.​​

    First looks amazing. I think is a weapon for venos. I believe I have seen venos with such kind of weapons.




    At first I thought this is a bow. Dont know why.

    To me, this complex system is like a fashion DIY.

    Also It is a major source of G17 stuff ( plus new FB), you need to upgrad your housing system to get higher quest for better rewards.

    However, you may need tons of coin for upgrade your housing system.

    According to PWCN feed back, if you want a very high level, and upgrade everything, you may need couples of billions coins.

    Most players will have to put some hundred millions coins on this system.

    Gold price will be expected to go lower and PWCN already did.

    For PVE, i think this system is very awesome but not much sense to PVP.

    G17R5 is still very very difficult to reach so far.

    I haven't been around much lately so I arrived late to the discussion and it appears some off topic arguments got the main thread locked so I can't ask anything on the thread anymore which is why I'm making this thread.

    The main thread, for reference, is this one : http://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/pwi/#/discussion/1203618/g17r5-weapon-release-in-pwcn-op-than-r9r3

    According to the main thread, G17 weapons will be tied to housing. However, I thought housing was a PWCN thing. We have no housing here in PWI. So why do people talk like there is going to be G17 here?

    I was about to get a G16 on a toon, but if we're getting G17, then I might as well grab a much cheaper G15 for now and wait for the G17.

    f2p version of PW CN just got housing along with the new weps. According to attackerv's last post there tho, be prepared to sink 2bil into the new wep. If you're not already g16, might as well just grab Lunar version for now and resell later.​​

    Housing system was originally only in the Pay-2-Play version. (PW1)

    They always used to say that we would never see the housing system in the Free-2-Play version. (PW2) Note: It was PW2 looong before they called the expansion PW2, and technically our version is PW2.5.

    The latest expansion bring the housing system to the F2P version. We might see it here in 4-6 months. We may not. It will require considerably more servers than what we are using now, and given that PWE isn't prone to spending money even on providing a decent support team, I find it hard to believe that they will spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to support this.

    But they said they would never merge the servers too.

    Also keep in mind that the gear in our version is different from China's, and to that extent, we may still never see G17, or that version of G17 in our version. (At least, not if the cashcows at PWE have anything to say about it. They'll find a way to milk it in the boutique and I'm sure they'll offset the current gear completely to expand the power creep even further.)

    I'm also tossing this into the existing G17 thread, and will re-open that discussion once I get the motivation to dig through all the dung. You can thank your fellow forum posters for that at any time.​​

    OK, turns out cleaning the thread was mostly removing the last page and a few other posts. Re-opening this now, and keep the discussion about the gear.

    If you want to whine about CS'ing or farming or troll other players, go find some other social media site to trash talk in pelase.​​

    So it's a possibility that these weapons won't be coming to our servers correct? I mean i hope they don't because think about all the people just getting their R9 gear and so on ijs..
    Although i don't mind the upgraded skills coming..that is what i'm mostly excited about.

    I think it's pretty safe to say we're getting this in it's entirety though it may be a few months.

    I would simply just not invest in a r9rr wep at this point.​​

    I don't see any reason why they wouldn't bring it. It's fully compatible with our gear since you can use this weapon while still having the set bonus from R9rr armor (the R9rr weapon is not a part of the set). The last time content arrived that was different than what was in PWCN was Sirens of War but that was years ago.

    I'm a little unsure if we are getting the G17 cube neck since that looks similar to our NW cube neck but farming G17 weapons is the whole point of most of the new content in the expansion.

    I expect this to hit PWI around March or April 2016.

    I've seen some stats on G17R4 and G17R5. But can anyone post some stats on G17R1? I'm just wondering how the G17R1 (the "free" one you get from doing a quest) compares with the current base G16 weapons we have now.

    G17R3 may compare with G16. G17R4 may compare with R9R3.

    G17R1 is similar R8 or morai weapon but it is almost free.

    Awesome, thread is re-opened, thank you @sylenthunder . Quick question, or i missed the post. Which instance do we farm these mats? How many of those mats drop? What is the farming time that people are expecting in china to farm such a weapon? How "hard" is the instance (if anyone has been able to find out? Can it be spammed, or is it a daily/weekly thing?​​

    You farm it in the "new" housing system. Beyond that, I haven't really paid attention to it.​​

    Is there a video of a person "farming" the new housing system? watched the video bloodbone posted, seemed fun but also required co-ordination, judging from eu squads that might be an issue onion-21.gif​​

    we need confirmations boys..

    1st confirmation required: Can classes obtain more than one g17 weapon since those aren't class restricted except for tb-ns-mystic-archer weapons?

    2nd confirmation required: Did anyone in PWCH obtain the 5th cast already? Are weapons in any database to be checked yet? (Chance to get the procs on fifth cast, weapon damage range etch)

    3rd confirmation required: Weapon procs, the % chances of each offensive and defensive proc pretty please

    4th confirmation required: Is the 100% mag\phys red offensive proc debuff, stack with its own new debuff icon, or is it not​​

    I can't confirm it. but I see no reason to assume that icon will be different. Still think it's the worst possible skill for a weap :D

    if it has its own icon, wizards and stormies can pull shenanigans with such a debuff
    ex: g17 debuff + undine spark (assuming 115 dex) fist = 100 + 60 + 110 + 30 = 300% debuff egg-30.gif​​
