    I wonder if tidal protection will block the new veno dot effect. If so that is really lame because that almost undermines many rune set playstyles.

    Tidal protection blocks dots as well. It even blocks absorb soul...such a useful skill :smile: .

    Wouldn't mind tidal if Sins didn't have so many save skills or were as squishy as china sin general population of aps sins

    So I finally got CN client working(Yay) and I thought to check and update the rankings on arena as I found those interesting. The top tier for ranking points is 2,2k+ and there is only select few with that amount of points. Granted this is really early into season as they just reset it couple of weeks ago.

    Amount of people with 2,2k+ score per class:with highest rank of the class in standings in () for 3vs3:

    BMs: 1 (20)
    Wizard: 1 (22)
    Cleric: 1 (11)
    Archer: 0
    Barbarian: 0
    Venomancer: 4 (7)
    Assassin: 7 (6)
    Psychic: 0
    Seeker: 0
    Mystic: 0
    Duskblade: 7 (1)
    Stormbringer: 4 (2)

    Total amount of ppl with 2,2k+ is 25. Not too surprised personally with what classes are dominant but the lack of HAs is bit surprising.

    Amount of people with 2,2k+ score per class:with highest rank of the class in standings in () for 6vs6:

    BMs: 0
    Wizard: 0
    Cleric: 6 (2)
    Archer: 3 (6)
    Barbarian: 0
    Venomancer: 5 (1)
    Assassin: 4 (4)
    Psychic:5 (5)
    Seeker: 0
    Mystic:0
    Duskblade: 5 (9)
    Stormbringer: 3 (3)

    Total amount of ppl with 2,2k+ score is 31. 6vs6 is definitely more well rounded in class composition but Assassin and Duskblade still do very well. The lack of HAs is pretty shocking to me personally.

    @blazerboy sorry. i don't have that picture. but basically, new arena ( now should be called Colosseum) is for G17R5 ring and robe. other things are not worthy.

    I heard about from cn u can farm R5 by 1+ year if you are on the top (2000+ score) weekly ( but i am not sure only ring or robe, or both).

    You can also farm by your alts. but the coins exchange rate is still 4:1.

    The important thing for Colosseum is if pwi makes it X-cross and what time slots.

    right now, pwcn mades it X-cross and noon to midnight (12-hour). The time slot was 24-hour but they changed it to 12 hour couples weeks ago.

    We will see how pwi deals with that, maybe in the news of next week.

    @attackerv if they make it cross server than it will likely be EU time it's better if they did 24hr for us giving the U.S players a chance to rack up points otherwise NA get severely gimped as usual but his is china we talking about. But mainly ring robe got it

    The helm is actually cheap upgrade. Only 1,5k PK coins compared to 60k somebody said S5 cape took. Then again you dont need the helm upgrade for anything till you upgrade your cape so meh.

    The CoM helm turns into crest of dominator helm, though the name was different I think. Basically the stats are same though, which means you will gain the CoM+WoA set bonus on the helm itself allowing you to change cape. But as getting S5 cape takes ages, the helm upgrade is bit meh due it not really giving you anything till you can upgrade the cape.

    12 classes...each class should average ~8% of the rankings in a balanced state.

    Sin + Duskblade + Veno is 72% of top rankings. 3v3 is pretty much just sins fighting duskblades all day with the veno running around in full def fox waiting for 0 def, GG #hardcorepvp.

    You can skip to G17S2 cape with WoA and its a fair bit cheaper mat wise than going from G17S1 to S2. I dont really know where you get G17S1 cape but it coming from arena coins makes sense, I just dont see a manufacturing tab for it. Could be its some quest but as I dont read chinese I really wouldnt know.

    I just check pwcn site. Yes, G17S1 Robe can be exchanged by 100 tier1 coins .
    S2 robe is 500t1 coins and 150t2 coins.
    S3 robe is 1000t1+275t2+50t3 coins, or WoA 750t1+200t2+30t3 coins

    consider WoA worthy 300m in our server, so not bad to farm S2 by arena.

    the problem is S4, and S5 also need t4 and t5 coins.

    only a few OP ppl (may NP players) can be tier 5 on the rank.

    that mean those player will be firstly get S5 robe, then sell mats on market, then other ppl can buy mats from them and upgrade G17 robe.

    similarly to G17 rings

    That room with the rising lava is cool. Looks like you have to bring a lot of ranged classes. Not much for melees to do.

    First two minutes of the video is basically the entire party beating on a giant box. Amazing gameplay.

    To be fair though the graphics look improved from previous dungeons. If I didn't look carefully I'd think this was some sort of old WoW instance.
