    The short-term way to fix it is for the servers to reset. Long-term would be making EQ not work on hands, which is not something the PWE Devs* can do directly as far as I know.

    Also, calm down. Really.

    I dont care who "fixes" it.. if you use your brian, its not hard to tell that this will cause more deaths, therefore more charm and gaurdian angel will be consumed, therefore more money shall be spent buying zen.. it's greed my friend.

    It's not greed - PWI didn't cause jerks to go in and mess up the circles. Server reset will fix it. Fix it, that is, untill another jerk messes it up again. =)

    You sure that it's not just that your client couldn't/didn't load all the circles? I've had plenty of times where double holy pathing through those rooms had me go across so quickly that the circles (and hands, in some cases) didn't even get a chance to show up on my client.

    Because you can tell from the screenshots (especially the second) that the hands are spawning in their proper positions.

    Yeah, the hands themselves spawn in the right place, but someone pushed the hands and circles using a skill. Since the hands respawn, they go back to normal place, but the circles stay where they were pushed. Annoying XD Just have to be careful OR just go around to where the circles are normal >_>'

    It is caused by players using Earthquake. The fix is to make those circles unaffected by Earthquake. Expect the fix in a few short years.

    A step by step...

    1) Get a Xerox color photocopier

    2) Put your monitor face down on said photocopier

    3) Make a Photocopy of this thread

    4) Take the photocopy of this thread, and tie it to a brick

    5) Leave it on top of one of the Dev's mailboxes

    Thus, they will know we are having issues with this?

    Then Mods pass the message on to the Dev team that handles the coding side of things because as sure as hell your graphics team isn't responsible for the physics of the game. We KNOW you can't fix it-why state the obvious? If you could fix it, you'd obviously have a better job than having to look over 4chans brain child of a forum (aka the PWI forums) all day long.b:surrender

    First off, as many players here have stated, this issue is caused then a player uses the Genie skill "Earthquake" on the circles. This causes the circles to move back, while the hands spawn in the original area. There's actually a way around this beside's "tempting fate". The way only works for Barbs, however. I imagine other classes can use there own way, but this is how I generally pass room 38 (the earlier circle room, even when glitched is super easy to pass):

    1.) Use Violent Triumph (Lvl 79 Barb skill)
    2.) Pop a Ironguard (30-40k a pop on HT)
    3.) Hop in Tiger form quickly
    4.) Holy path once across the room, and a second time to get to the NPC on the other side.

    This trick allows you to be invinsible for 15 seconds, where nothing in the game can kill you. (hands/ant-bugs/players)

    Something I also want to state is PWE is a subsidiary of Wanmei. In other words, Perfect World International (our version), is patched by Perfect World China (created/maintained by the company "Wanmei). Mods on the forums moderate these very forums, to be sure people are doing what they should be, versus posting anything they felt like, and spamming. GMs are Game Masters in PWI, however they are able to do very little due to the restraint of PW-CN (Perfect World China). CMs are Community Managers. Generally they manage the forums. In the case of PWI's forums, they do a pretty pathetic job, in my opinion anyways.

    A way to look at it is:
    -PWI is ran by PWE, but PWE is ran by a China company
    -PWI gets it's patches from PW-CN, which are translated into English by PWE's translators
    -PWE has full access to do whatever they want Marketing-wise (sales, etc)
    -PWE has in fact no ruling over developing anything in our game, fixing game bugs, etc. They can report the bugs to PW-CN, but it takes 6-8 months to send messages back and forth. My guess is they use e-mails, or sending real mail over sea. (as seen w/ the DQ reward program)

    The point I'm making is, your extremely upset. Your so upset over this issue, and it shows. However, blaming the mods won't solve it. If you want the issue solved, learn Chinese and hop on Wanmei's PW-CN's forums. There you can make direct posts in there message board to active developers. Though, I doubt they will care.

    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 has little to do with the circles. The circles have their own distinct point where they sit on the map and are immobile. The hands have their own and can be moved, which doesn't affect the circle. The circles are merely an independent guide as to where the hand's explosion perimeter is presuming the hand is still in it's original place.

    Once the hand has been pushed away, by, say, quake, as the more plausible explanation (i.e. looks like in those screenshots somebody ran thru the middle diagonally and quaked most of the middle hands outward), the circle remains in the same spot but the hand is in a different location, which reflects the dots on the mini map that represent each hand (not circle).

    Another thing to add to Tremble's post, Wanmei's current devs cant even touch such parts of the game if they wanted to because they don't know the code. So yea, tough luck with seeing that ever getting fixed.b:bye
