    Patch Notes Version 563
    Released September 13, 2011


    Patch Servers
    We have upgraded our patch servers in order to address a connectivity issue for some players.

    Frostcovered City
    We were able to implement a fix to an exploit with our last patch. We will continue to monitor the situation and attempt to address any further issues concerning this dungeon.

    b:laugh

    Really there is a goon fix? Hopefully yes.b:pleasedb:pleased

    As for the pvp pk instance i say the duel arena. Why? because it makes sense.

    I was thinking...

    Well you think you'd just open up the arena like it was intended to be used. Stop trying to inconvenience those who don't want to PvP unless we choose to do so. If you really don't care, then just make every server a PvP one and at least everyone will know what they are getting into.

    If you could make any instance in the game open PVP (like Secret Passage is right now), which would you choose and why?

    Don't make ANY instance where people have QUESTS an open PvP Arena like they did in Secret Passage. I don't get why this is such a hard idea Frankie.

    ..seriously, you're asking THIS question, in THIS thread?

    Aren't you 'monitoring' the situation? Aren't you compiling a list of all complaints so you can forward it to the devs in china? In which case you would've seen all the suggestions that DIRECTLY ANSWER your present question? Are you a psychopath?

    <_< It wasn't Frankie's idea to change SP. The devs did it themselves, he was totally unaware. XD

    I believe he's TRYING to get them to notice and change it, since he also can't fix it himself. =(

    FB109 is totally unused and unlikely to be needed for some years, try that instead of SP. just add an entry to the illusion stone and an exit somewhere handy

    none of them and change Secret Passage back to a PVE environment...

    the devs could just easily copy secret passage if they like that area so much and keep it separated from anything to do with PVE and quests and have a guy in each town like the arena manager to teleport you there.

    would sort the whole problem out.

    The point is that offering up another instance that also involves quests is not a valid alternative. After all the flack so far, I'm astonished that he would even mention it and not expect to get flamed. Seriously, it's not an option, not if you want to keep calling them PvE servers.

    Let's make a place called The Arena: GREAT IDEA!!!! we can have npc's, and set up the map and make it pk enabled and no drops and tele back to the entrance and people can pvp war all day long without interrupting noobs or chain quests!

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    Why didn;t they listen to this guy?????

    Instead the so called " Mirroring " pwchina, which is bullchit...
    PWChina uses the god !$#@ ARENA
    PWMY (Malaysia) uses the god !$#@ ARENA

    PWI.... Errr too lazy. hey wait didn't we just recently bone the secret passage fixes?
    well **** it, let's bone it even harder and say it was on purpose to start with :D

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

    No, there should be a PvP area. There's obviously a demand for it. However, I do have my doubts about some people using it since there probably won't be lowbies wanting/needing to do quests there. The only reason some people are in SP right now is to get in the way of people that are trying to do quests in there.

    I know a few people that were playing by the rules before they were changed and harassing lowbies was considered acceptable behavior. Those people deserve a place to play.

    I don't really care where they move the PK zone to as long as it doesn't interfere in any way with PvE activities. Opening up one of the arenas could be a great idea. :)

    non of them PvP sucks and is a useless waste of time and effort

    use the damn arena and forget **** with the instances, youre driving people away from the game

    THIS^^

    I also think it would be fun, for the place where "the race" takes place to be Pk. The prize you get from there isn't much, and since the monthly qualifier doesn't mean anything.. it would be a good spot. Plus there are additions other than mobs in there that slow you down, speed you up.. etc. Which would be fun tid bits to add to Pk.

    What about some of us that are already on pve servers at lvl 100? That joined that server to be with friends. We can't just switch to a pvp server and keep our stuff. So rethink the pvp server answer :P If you were the one on the pve server and wanted to pk more would you just switch to a pvp server and lose all you're hard work?


    i did i moved from Sanctuary to Lost City so go and move to a PVP server if you wanna pk or turn on and wait for a white name dont pick on blue names in SP b:victory

    Simply activate the arena. Convert existing instances in PVP zones is weak sense. Especially when one knows that there is an arena.
    Why PWI is determined to transform an instance into a PVP zone?
    Where's the sense?

    I would make the whole server pk, and take off the punishment for droppping stuff. Simply because I've spent way too much money and time on this server to drop everything and start over on a pk server, but I know this wont happen so:

    yeah, great, take ANOTHER thing i like to do in game just for the fun of it and let jacka$$es PK me in there for no damn good reason. sure, go right ahead why don't you?

    no, the prizes you get there aren't much. but running around the silly little instance and dodging glowy blue clouds is fun. and i suppose if i ever decided i might want a level-90 rank-6 weapon, that'd be one of the very few badges i could actually farm for myself instead of paying... mostly PKers, actually... to farm for me. so, sure, let them have that one too, i'm too fed up to bother defending PvE in this game anymore.

    Let the bleed begin...

    I heard some great suggestions of competing games to consider. Maybe Frankie should have made that the topic... Which other game will you start playing since PWE wants to **** with this game?

    The current line of thinking is completely wrong. The reason PKers like SP is that they are able to catch players unawares. A separate arena/instance would not please them because that would only allow them to PK other PKers. The ability to PK blue names is why they are SO HAPPY with the current change. They will NOT be happy with a separate area. They can PK each other anywhere (outside of towns) if they are in PK mode.

    For everyone saying Cave of Sadistic Glee, I have to say I would *only* agree if they removed the two boss quests and all blue/purple divine quests from there. I am someone who likes to complete all quests and this would just be moving it from one place that was taking away our quests to another that would take away our quests.

    But there is no reason why they cannot use the Arenas. Leave the PVErs to play and quest in peace.

    Hey all,

    If you could make any instance in the game open PVP (like Secret Passage is right now), which would you choose and why?

    First choice would be arena, of course. Failing that, Cave of Sadistic Glee would be a second choice. Not ideal since there are quests there, but still better than a newbie questing area.

    That is the moment when you tell the PKers to MOVE to a PVP server as THAT is the purpose. Im getting sick of the excuse of we want a free pvp place and yet you point out the truth... the desire is to bully other players NOT actually participate in true PVP. People who are just plain CHICKENSHYT to roll on a PVP server and want to harass others.
