    Thank you for that Asty. I just kept looking at that spreadsheet and my brain shutting off cause of translation :)

    Looks like its gonna be a while of farming and a bit complex. The weapons look neat and worth it, but god the armor kinda seems like it sucks. I'm looking forward to the finalization to see what kind of min-maxing can be done.

    Gonna have to work on some diff interval gear to take advantage of the wraith attack and defense levels it seems :( Damn R8 mats take forever.

    It would seem they had to nerf the new PvE daggers because they were performing on par with rank 9 daggers. That's what I gathered from This anyways

    I'm just going by that spreadsheet. I'm not really sure what's the max prestige / merit you can get per day...

    The weapons cost 900 merit and require 5000 prestige.
    You can see this on the bow called: ★★天兵-化蝶
    which has stats: http://image.81813.com/w2i/2012/01/27/wm270401.jpg

    The reroll mat "华光会徽记" is also there and can be used to reroll the above bow.
    http://i.imgur.com/5JNAX.png
    There are 2 different reroll recipes with that mat, one that takes 60 + bow = bow, another takes 45 + bow = bow.
    I'm assuming this is like r8 recast where one of them is reshaping and one is honing

    You need 5000 prestige to buy "华光会徽记" but it only costs 1 merit each. I think you are limited to 15 a day though?

    Each faction has their own particular set of weapons and their own recast mat.


    EDIT: I checked some threads on the chinese forums and it seems like it took them about a month to farm their first good skill. This makes it seem like my initial rough estimate of 3-4 weeks per order is about right.

    Sorry for the double post =\

    Anyways, the max Prestige you can get in one day is 250. The max Merit is 100. With an additional 60 prestige available once weekly (but no merit).

    There are a total of 6 dailies. So that means you can get 1810 Prestige per week and 700 Merit.

    Hope that helps.

    There haven't been any updates on the main CN server in the past month so I guess we'll see.

    Ohh nice that's a bit more than I thought. I'm guessing that getting that much involves being lucky and getting all purple quests? Do you know the amount you get with normal luck?

    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.

    Do you get a prompt that pops up when you open up the patcher?
    If so, you need to update.

    If you aren't sure, try opening up the game through the exe file and see if you get a prompt at the login screen; if you do, you most likely need to update.


    One of the buttons on the patcher should open up the server list for patching (iirc there are two of them, and it looks jsut like our update server list), just choose one and let it update.

    Or better yet, find out what your game version is, and get the manual update from here.
    If it's earlier than 806, click on the other tabs for downloads, one of them has a list for manual patches.

    I'll ask her to look at it when she a spare moment. Also, if your having trouble translating things in images like that, try using the Google Goggle App if you or someone you know has an android phone. There might be a similar program online or for Iphones but i don't know the name's. It works decent for a rough translation.

    Taking the balancing of existing skills with a grain of salt. Considering recent examples, the changing of landscape before coming of earthguard and the concept art which had nothing to do with game scenery. PWI/cn just wants to say that new skills will balance existing classes and are just hyping this up to keep players interested.

    Hmm... it's complaining about the configs.pck....
    Either it's missing, you have chinese characters in your filepath , or it got corrupted.
    Try updating (upper right) and verifying it (upper middle button).

    If that fails, I'll give you my copy.

    All I know it's a pack that's promoting the movie somehow... The icon is of the veno girl wearing half clothes.

    While I did translate some of the files from pwcn for personal use, it's far from perfect and bugs.

    I suppose for your convenience, you can have this.
    It translates the names of servers, txt file goes into (whateverpwcniscalled)/patcher/server
    Just remember to always keep a copy of this and the old one.
    Just in case.

    For those of you not playing pwcn, please, please, don't add this to pwi. It won't work.
    I know that should be obvious but I have a feeling someone will think it will allow them on pwcn and try anyways. b:surrender

    Escorian, and others, you do a good job at bringing infos :)

    I do have a question that , I think, has yet to be answered, well maybe 2..

    I know we saw a quick map a few weeks back, but how big is new area you would say ?

    Around the size of the Earthguard lands (Like from Fissure to Elysium) ? A tad smaller ?

    And hmm..well I forgot my 2nd one b:surrender

    Guess i'll get coffee and come back...

    Hmm yah, must have mis-explained myself..I knew that part , that it would be a kinda instance with a "u shall not pass if not 95+" barrier... Was mostly wondering about size of it, but from what ur saying , might be about the same size as hell/heaven.

    Oh and I recall my other question, site announces two new dungeons, are they both for the new gear (or items needed to make them) or one is for that is that other serves another purpose ?

    Thansk a lot in advance :)

    I have a question...

    Is it required to be in a faction with a base for acquiring the new skills? Do I need to be in a faction with a base to enjoy this expansion in other words.

    Thank you for answering in advance.
