Godd News!

Well the harpy and the monkey king aren't phoenix and herc upgrades. I think that they are other pet that you get in the nw.

Why?

Because these are the phoenix and herc upgrades:

Nix

Herc

Well, i don't know really these are the new nix and new herc, because there will be many changes in the combat pets, the developer's have confirmed that the pet will inherit many veno's stats, so many pet will be upgraded, like petite sawfly:

sawfly

Anther change is the veno can train the pet for some stat, for example if you want a pet very offensive, you can develop the "crazy" temper in the pet. If want a defensive pet you can give him a "indomitable" character. I think that the intraction with the pet will be upgraded.

So if you are very confused go to: http://w2i.wanmei.com/news/gamenews/20121227/68881.shtml

o.o...

So in other words, I don't have to no-life farm for my nix again on RT and can simply get the new AWESOME looking pet via NW wars? Either way, would be worth it, since the upgraded versions look pretty neat. I'll def. start saving up my tokens now. b:victory

And yep...

I LOVE VENOS QQ About time they did something amazing for us. <

b:dirty Yo quiero ese Nixie.

Just can wait any longer. Love veno so much more.

*In heaps of suspense* b:nosebleedb:dirty I hope it really is true. I must know more about this O:

BungaSakura - Raging Tide

yay sawfly can get upgrade. i cant wait to see this. i love my veno badly

Veneir - Dreamweaver

Nixie. Pretty. Pretty nixie.
It'd.. be pretty wonderful if this is actually the case of how it's coming along. x3

I spazzed at the new forme on the Princess Celestia flying mount, too xD

Desdi - Sanctuary

Updated the first post and added two more quotes about latest changes etc.

Sukinee - Heavens Tear

The only problem I see is whether or not the skills of the pet are reset/removed when they evolve. I have an armored bear with herc skills and I would hate to lose them if I were to be able to upgrade it b:surrender

Otherwise, yay this update is great!

Vedovis - Lost City

Tbh the only thing I'm looking forward to are the new skills; especially new foxform The rest seems.. dunno. I don't like it. I like how pets are atm. The only thing that they could fix that I would like would be pet EXP.. Worst experience I ever had in a game, and in PWI, was training up pets to level 100.

This is a concern for me too, although the petite sawfly being featured in the material leads me to think they will account for this as this is a pet very frequently given rare skills in order to make it competitive.

b:shockedDespite myself I'm actually becoming excited about this update...

helovesu

I am very sorry to do OOT here.

However, i would like to know which skills of venos that have been revised to be better?

Could you give me any links in this forum which were talking about the list of those veno's revised skills?

Thank you a lot.

No word on that yet. There are some rumors going on but nothing official yet as far as I know.

Hey everyone.
Some of you may already know about this but there is an upcoming patch in PW-CN that will include some new skill(s) and pet upgrades.

Screenshots

Harpy-lady is an upgrade to the Phoenix, DPS pet. Monkey king is an upgrade to the Hercules, tank pet. Kirin/Dog is...currently a land/water pet. No further detail on it. This seems to be no longer valid. Some sources say these three pets might be entirely new pets. Not 100% confirmed yet.


And here is the translation that someone kindly did for us:




Opinions? Speculations?
I wanted to start a new discussion here since I find it pretty interesting.



Upgrade seems to be done via NW so I hope an EU time friendly NW slot will be added so I can attend NW in the future. Anyone thinks legendary pet prices will raise after the release?

Linghuan. We already have Bramble Hood, Blazing Barrier, Feral Concentration, Myriad Rainbow (both). I'll throw in Ironwood, Natural Synergy and Parasitic Nova, too. So many skills already require chi/sparks. Would this new skill be of much use?


EDIT: I decided to add a few things that have been buried in the pages for quick reference here.

im excited for this new upgraded veno b:pleased

Pelli - Dreamweaver

So any idea when this will hit us? I'm eager but I have my limits. Those goodies are really eye candies! <

helovesu

I hope that Pet's Exp Gain per monster killed would be increased by a make-sense number.

To level up a 101 pet to 102 you have to slay 33k monsters, then if you just kill 30 numbers of monsters daily, it means that your pet will have leveled up to 102 by 3 years later (Big LOL).

We venos, compared to those mystics, whose pets/summons would level up when the owner was leveling up too, it sounds unfair.

Desdi - Sanctuary

I do hope for an EXP re-balance (either lower the EXP needed or increase the EXP gain) but there's no word on it yet.

If they don't change anything in the EXP system of the pets then I think it would be nice to give an extra increase in stats or a higher percentage of stats gained from the Venomancer's armor after lvl101+. That would make it worthwhile doing the effort to level pets beyond 100.

SmurfJegeren - Dreamweaver

I see a few doubts on wether the new skill will be useful, my answer is a clear: YES!

We do have alot of chi dependent skills, but for an example: All our buffs, chi needy or not are purgeable. That includes Synergy, or demon summer sprint. This skill is a fox form skill, so demons will surely appreciate the high speed they get from the changing and put it together with an unpurgeable anti stun +heal that will heal your entire HP pool 1.5 times. I know Ill use this over synergy as a fox form veno, and when carrying a flag in NW... totally smexy o,,o

Xx_BeLLa_xX - Harshlands

Anyone have more info? Or know when CN will get it?

Desdi - Sanctuary

No news yet so far but I'm hoping we'll have some new information soon. If I recall correctly the new patch should be out in PWCN tomorrow.

Baby_pho - Heavens Tear

waiting for it! :O

Xx_BeLLa_xX - Harshlands

I started to collect tokens on my veno, but I don't want to collect to much and waste the chance to get money too. xD

I want to be able to have all tokens before it arrive to us. =D

Desdi - Sanctuary

Bad news guys b:cry
It looks like this wasn't really a big patch as we thought and new pets/upgrades are still not released in PWCN.

They released some kind of weapon fashion thing instead http://w2i.wanmei.com/news/gamenews/20130114/69015.shtml b:cry

Castgurl - Raging Tide

b:sad

Sad, Casty is freaking sad QQ

Savor - Lost City

I don't know what all this complaining about skills using chi is I literally always have chi unless getting hate targeted chi stolen by demon characters and other venos..

Any skill that says it makes me immune to movement debuffs and heals 10% HP EVERY second and can't be purged... and only costs 1 spark seems like a ****ing dream come true. I can see people raging already as they fail to kill me in NW..

MANray_ - Sanctuary

Even accounting for the often sudden manner in which PW handles some updates, I think it's a safe bet to say we won't be getting anything on the pet upgardes prior to this year's second quarter... I would even go as far as pushing that into Q3, with perhaps a summer release as the earliest plausible scenario. We may get the new transformations much earlier however.

Desdi - Sanctuary

I don't know why they keep postponing so much but ehh, as long as we do get the update eventually I'll be happy.

I guess in the meantime they might actually add a new NW time slot or, if the update arrives here around summer, I'll be having my vacation so maybe be able to participate in NW and save up tokens for the upcoming pets.

Either way, I'm just disappointed a bit, they could have given us some more bits of information at least

Castgurl - Raging Tide

Hmm...I'll give it until around the summer before we may possibly get any update or news even about the new transformations, pet updates, the like. And THEN a good few months before they actually announce the update. b:laugh

Until then, I shall QQ my purty lil heart away. >.>;

OO_Venus_Oo - Momaganon

I bet we will get r10 or something like that sooner than the new pets and pet system b:angry
