So about 3months after the Rising Tide expansion came out i stopped playing pw.I remember that sins and psychics were really OP and if they were geared good they could kill anyone.Especially sins.

So since it's 2year anniversary i would like to know if they changed anything,how's the class balance,any new features so basically what's new after about 3months after RT expansion?

    This is perfect world. We know nothing about balance or gameplay.
    Unless balance is a synonym for packs. We have tons of those.

    They've added more content, like a Jungle Ruins dungeon, the Celestial Tiger weekly event, and a new Wedding Chapel instance for the romantics with big budgets.

    But if you're asking "Have they fixed anything?" well...

    GMs continue ignoring real issues, bugs never get fixed (any bug you remember from when game started, yea..they're still here), classes/skills never get balanced, gameplay never improves, cash shop predatory sales are getting worse, instances never get fully finished. In other words, stay out. Sadly some of us play with friends and havent found a new game to move to 'yet' and we have to watch PWE management burn down the game.

    After this last year of "doing stuff," I'm inclined to believe we'd be better off if they didn't. Like if some kid decides to do crayon murals on the wall, then tries to "fix" it with the white crayon.

    "No... just... no. Stop. That's enough."

    im personally stopped playing as well activly, just watching from afar every tuesday which updates comes out, waiting for finally something good happen and maybe i will start playing then again, couse acutally there is NOT A SINGLE FUN THING in this game...

    everything is frustrating, even those gifts for they crappy anniversary, when we arent even allowed to choose to which character it will be transferred to, they force every damn player out there to buy those fuc*ing account-stash-stones.

    genies are useless as ever

    rubberbanding still exist, you cant run anywhere just fly with your slow speed standart fly, couse every cool fly cost insane much

    gold prizes are over 450k each

    packs have only 0,001% to get something good

    TW changes didnt make anything real against those terretorry monopolism out there

    so many bhs that there isnt even hard to level up until 80,
    and every good faction accept only players over 80, every others have to survive by themselves trying to kill those bosses without enough players in they levels LOL,

    and from lvl 80 its about impossible to lvl fast, you get about nothing from your quest as rewards and you cant find even a single squad for a fcc, TT or something good, noone plays anymore with each other, only against each other, couse there stood only greedy players out there = more hate = more frustration

    dont forget the new shi*ty bidding hall rizing the gold prizes even more and more

    oh yeah, and the idiotic event, which is only mondays at 5am for european players ROFL,

    really, if you already stopped, just search for another MMO, couse this is the worst i played EVER!
    the only bonus this game has is the grafics, NOT MORE

    those BOOOORING QUESTS AND EVERYTHING AROUND IS BOOORING b:bye

    No, they're not forcing anyone to buy anything. You're getting free ****. If you dislike which character gets it, you have the OPTION to transfer the FREE stuff you get.
    genies are useless as ever

    Really now? Holy path, extreme poison, tree of protection, absolute domain, expel, frenzy, tangling mire and a few other skills would like a word o.o
    rubberbanding still exist, you cant run anywhere just fly with your slow speed standart fly, couse every cool fly cost insane much

    homg homg Q_Q The only thing you got right is that rubberbanding is still ever so present. At least you can simply fly in order to fix it when it happens. Only the 3/6 m/s mounts are expensive. All the others are dirt cheap and you can get them from grinding for a few hours.
    gold prizes are over 450k each

    OVER 9000? No not really, they are 390ish on Sanc.
    packs have only 0,001% to get something good

    Tokens aren't good? I like tokens. I think tokens are good. You don't? Don't buy packs.
    TW changes didnt make anything real against those terretorry monopolism out there

    Big words. I'd steer clear of them if I were you.
    so many bhs that there isnt even hard to level up until 80,
    and every good faction accept only players over 80, every others have to survive by themselves trying to kill those bosses without enough players in they levels LOL,

    Omg too funny LOL LOL.
    and from lvl 80 its about impossible to lvl fast, you get about nothing from your quest as rewards and you cant find even a single squad for a fcc, TT or something good, noone plays anymore with each other, only against each other, couse there stood only greedy players out there = more hate = more frustration

    I got to level 100 thanks to gammas and deltas. I never used a single hyper stone. I know people who GRINDED their way to 100 even before that. Now you have 3 bhs a day, 3 times as many dailies as I used to have, and hypers just dropped in price more than 400%. Still find it too hard to level? Go play hello kitty.
    dont forget the new shi*ty bidding hall rizing the gold prizes even more and more

    I like Southpark and an Eskimo caught a fish. Both sentences make equally as much sense.
    oh yeah, and the idiotic event, which is only mondays at 5am for european players ROFL,

    Onoz, I'm running out of witty comments. Do the event. Don't do the event. No one gives a flying ****.

    Don't really know why I still log on, I used to really enjoy world pvp.. but when tideborn started reaching end game it really just became more frustrating than fun. If I saw somebody that had thrown enough money in to buy several cars, I'd accept the fact that they could beat me and just avoid them.. but going out to fight someone 1v1 and a character about as impossible to kill as a gm pops out of stealth I just need to wait for the go to town button. Anyway, I gave up on world pvp and became a carebear farming instances to make my char awesome for TW.. but they took out the rewards.. and although I'd still enjoy throwing money at TW for the fun, the opponents do not. Wars are not being filled up, people are going charmless, TW is as good as dead as well. Building a character solely for a TW that never lasts more than 30 mins (usually under 10) is hardly reason to play. I guess my alt is the only reason I'm still playing, but when it reaches end game.. dunno what I'll do. Hope my story helps :P

    Maybe some of you should try out PWMS. Why?

    There are no ugly, unbalanced Tideborns.
    There is no rubberbanding.
    Nobody is complaining about event times ('cause there are no events at all...).
    There are no packs and no Cash Shop updates.
    There is no bidding hall.
    They still have the old Territorial War system.
    They have no instance time limit.

    Okay, there's also no active support, no major updates since genie update, more bots / coin sellers online than real players and every time a player gets too near to the Tideborn area (implemented but not activated) a system message is sent to everybody telling "XYZ is cheating, please contact a GM". Payments get lost as well, but who cares, because everything is far better than PWI b:laugh

    (Please have irony detector activated while reading the above post)

    Come on guys, a lot of people are complaining the game was dead because of recent updates. But there are some examples, how a really dead MMO looks like, even without these changes.

    All you need to do is look at your last post... a huge wall of QQ text just because they won't trade your mount to a different character.

    Just NPC your mount. It will save you a lot of mental anguish and grief.
