    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.

    I'll be honest, I hope the EXP instance is good, I'm not putting it to high standards, but if you can reasonably reach 105, I would be ok with it.

    Yeah I'm not holding my breath on it actually being worthwhile, but you never know.

    Maybe it'll be a pleasant surprise.

    Hey all,


    Servers are coming down tonight from 11pm-3am!


    All maintenance and patch discussion can go in this thread.


    And for tonight's question:


    Out of all the new things coming in the expansion, which are you most excited about?


    Hoping for more events like today, that was awesome. Especially when Sihndra snuck in and summoned DeathtoDW. b:chuckle

    I'll have to say the new area. If it's good enough to have new skills as well as a new way for people to get to 105, I'm excited!

    Forget you can get to lv. 105 without cheating like others. Even with this new quests it take years.
    BTW. Why are still cheaters unbanned? At least I know, that cheating worth it. I will cheat and use glitches everytime possible.

    Sadly, the only thing I'm looking forward to is the new interface and other graphical goodies. There's always a huge catch to the skills (ridiculous cooldowns etc), and I've been let down countless times by the end game content.

    woot 105 fc glitched stealth archers, and you cant see them cause you cant get passed 103 to use antistealth pots. Frankielies are those bans comming out with the expansion too or the fix is to open some instance where others can catch up and no bans?

    I'm looking forward to that no exp loss cleric skill. Passive, no cooldown...<3

    ...<_< There's gotta be a catch, of course. But a level limit isn't so bad.
    Would really suck if it was only for Sage clerics though or something.

    Also this time when the expansion comes out, LEAVE MY HAIR ALONE. D:< No stealing it again like you did when you unleashed the Tideborn.

    You call that "awesome"? b:surrender

    Let me guess : you are not even aware that there is a special Valentine Day event coded into the game?

    They ran that event once, and never enabled it again afterwards.....

    Go figure.....

    I'm aware of it actually, wasn't around of it but am plenty aware of it. Also heard that the reason they haven't run it is because it got bugged somehow. And yes, I still called that event awesome it was chaotic and fun and brought the server together. Can't complain about that!

    i find it disgusting that there are still tons of ppl that glitched there way to 105+ in less then a week and have never been punished (atleast nothing outside of a temp ban -_- anyway) while all of us legit players still have to dedicate MONTHS of our time trying to get to 105.

    and whats worse is you punish the legit players even more by nerfing goons instead of trying to fix the glitch itself. disgusting, still upset about that ****. the guys that got to 105 dong care about a goon nerf rofl. there 105, not like they can get any higher.

    I was 70% into level 104 before they were even discovered; I could confirm this with at least 5-10 others that I was racing with to be the first 105 bm across all the servers (which I did achieve in July) with my g15 +12 fists, but my point still stands that unless you were one of the handful of 30 people personally affected by using up 6 months + hitting 104-105 before the goons were came out, you have really no room to complain.

    If the people who actually used up the time aren't complaining, I fail to see why those who didn't use up the time are.

    @TheDan

    im sorry but i dont believe you. i remember you hit 104 and not long after that came goons it was not possible for you to be 70% into 104 considering it took you eons to go from 103 to 104 just soloing fcc unless your account was glitched and getting to 105 needed less exp than getting to 104. now im not complaining about 105's and goons im just merely pointing out your lie lol

    Sorry, I am half interested in skill fixes ... everything else... No thanks... Really... New instance... It is possibly going to be another stupid power leveling instance again. The new skills will troll people. New gear will not even be used (look at OHT). Ever since age of spirits (stupid genies), things gone downhill. I think the new expansion will keep everyone deliriously happy... for 5 minutes... Then go QQbutthurtrage. Way for the devs to dangle new things to keep angry suckers.... I mean customers to keep them buying gold for boutique.
    WTB PWI 2008 where people were thinking more about doing good rather than pretending to be.

    Early manual patch link: Patch 606-612 (861.6 MB)

    As usual, do not install the patch before the servers go down for maintenance or you will not be able to play until they come back up from maintenance.

    But yeah, this is the Descent patch. It's huge. Start downloading now. ;-)
    Wait, 11pm to 3am? It's never taken more then 2 hours for any of the other patches.... was that a mistype?
    Not true. For example, for Rising Tide they listed a 3 hour maintenance window (see here).

    This is a big change, so maintenance takes longer.

    Visit the PWI wiki for the useful information. Stay at the PWI wiki for the pie. ;-)
