    Well, at level 1, it's 8%, and at level 5, it's 40%. Which means if it keeps that same ratio, it will end up at 80% at level 10. Plus it's physical, wood and water. So, unfortunately, yes. b:surrender

    And since a range is listed, I assume it can be cast on players. And I assume it also stacks with vanguard since it has a different buff symbol.

    Hope it does, that would be epic!
    Also the 5 second Mystic skill looks like a squishy killer b:shocked

    I didn't manage to buff other people with the green buff, I suppose it's only a self-buff. But there's a range in the description which still confuses me.

    Seeker's Crit. rate buff gives me now +1 Atk Lvl (at lv3 skill).

    Also both classes have masteries. But for some weird reason, Seeker's blade mastery doesn't show on the skill tree.

    I see.

    Well at least you're playing the test server, and most likely the Chinese players would point out these anomalies in their bug report forums.

    At least I hope these are weird to them too.b:surrender

    Lv1 - Crit. +1%, 15min
    Lv2 - Crit. +1%, 30min
    Lv3 - Crit. +1%, +1 Atk Lvl, 15min
    Lv4 - Crit. +1%, +1 Atk Lvl, 30min

    judging by that id keep it at lvl 1 or lvl 2. 3 atk lvl and 1 def lvl at lvl 10 wont justify the spirit and coin cost imo.

    Did they change the prexisting popup that appears when you make a new toon?

    Idk cuz I don't know chinese, but it doesn't look TOO different.
    Oh! The "newbie armor" timed thing. Do all races across the board get that or just the EG? [...]

    EVERYONE gets it. I know because I logged onto my level 3 cleric (which I made b4 the expansion hit open beta) and I had the countdown quest to get the timed gear.


    Also speaking of timed gear the weapons from the supply stash (well the magic sword anyway) ARE TIMED NOW!!! b:angry lol

    Not that it matters too much (to me anyway) Though I do think its really annoying lol, I like the glowing weapons lol


    Also: any word yet on the rumored anti-sin abilities? (aka anti-sin-stealth ability?)

    I for one say great job, and thank you. We want to know something about this new class coming out and to tell u the truth I don't know what link to click when i got to the site. Bing 's translater finally worked but this is so much easier thank you thank you thank you! The "One paragraph" about the story line from pwe really hasn't helpful at all. This is helpful. Now, you little underground trolls sure wanted a look and learn something about the new classes or u wouldn't have looked here! If you don't have something nice to say just don't say anything. He obviously, worked hard and used his free time to help us. He said "UNOFFICIAL GUIDE TO THE EARTHGUARD" He did the research and all you guys did was cut him down.

    As a veno, one that'll probably stay a veno as a main, and one that likes animalistic pets most, I already see two things I'd love to see tameable there. One is the horse/deer thing at the beggining of first mistic movie, and the other are those goat-like things running around in earths FB19 videos b:dirty The running birdies look quite nice, too, but I don't think I feel like set an overgrown turkey on mobs b:chuckle

    I for one, appreciate the time you all took to create an unofficial guide, which undoubtedly will grow as more information is available.

    Kudos.

    You have obviously never made a guide. It is normal for a guide to span several posts, and the maker of the guide to reserve several posts so that the guide isn't interuppted by asinine posts like yours.

    I also want to chime in that it is normal to make a 'sneak preview' type of guide to try to show people what may be coming soon.

    People want to know.. and a forum IS for information exchange..

    Some interesting things I have seen;

    At some point in the 15-19 level range you get a free timed glider (2 days, 23 hours). I don't know how to get it or anything I was simply going along and noticed I had an item in my inventory that could be traded via a quest at the mailbox for a flier. The item looked just like the "feather of gliding" that you get from the level 40 supply stash. The glider looks just like the level 30 one (I think) and has a level requisite of 15, it flies at +0.50.


    Also my pet/summon thing was able to tank the fb19 boss at level 19 with almost constant healing (my heal skill was level 3) I don't know about DD because 2 seekers joined me to kill it but I do know that healing my pet burned 5,394 mp off my free 15,000 mp charm.


    Also it could just be me but it felt like leveling was really easy via quests, I went 1-19 in about 4-5 hours.

    Also about the butterflies seen floating around the mystic in one of the recent videos, they only appear once you get all 5 pieces of timed gear, and they go away if you don't have all 5 pieces equipped at once.

    Also this will probably be unique to the PW CN version but if you answer the ****-Shield question correctly you get some free exp lol. If you don't you get banned for 5 minutes lol.

    I meant just what I said lol, in the CN version every now and then a box pops up with a human check question, answer correctly = exp, answer incorrectly = 5 min ban, don't answer it = 5 minutes later a 5 minute ban.


    its supposed to prevent botting I think

    Nice. If it gives that much exp then I would put up with the annoyance of having it pop up in the middle of questing. o-o

    Are you sure? Because from what I have seen it gets progressively higher as you level, I just got 3,000 exp at lvl 21.

    Well, I'm getting random numbers, sometimes got up to 5k exp then just after something like 1250 exp. Maybe it's related to the mobs you are killing when it does pop-up.

    Sometimes, I even get nothing while I'm sure I answered correctly and didn't get banned.

    The skill max lvl is learnt at Lv64, if you compare with older classes, 10 Lvls of a skill that *ends* at lvl64 is usually between 300k and 450k coins to max it. Quite cheap I think.

    Spirit cost doesn't make sense in PWI, we're usually short on spirit on low lvls but by lv100+ we get more than enough to learn everything.
    So wait...will that thing pop up while you're afk somewhere or in a catshop? Or just while you're killing mobs?

    Only when killing mobs, but somehow I doubt the anti-**** comes for us.

    Everything has its beginnings, but it doesn't start at one. It starts long before that... The world is born From zero. The moment zero becomes one is the moment the world springs to life. One becomes 2. 2 becomes 10. 10 becomes 100. taking it all back to one solves nothing. so long as zero remains... One.. Will eventually grow to 100 again.

    It is my true and sincere hope that this new expansion helps the game get back on its feet. I just pray that this expansion helps make things better off than they are now....hopefully there are no more foolish sales such as this one...though I don't hold my breath.

    I look forward to what's coming up ahead, with slight reserved skeptisism just so I don't get my poor little heart broken again.
