    New Classes
    New Area(s)
    Nation War
    TW Resets
    R9.3/Nirvana 3rd
    Lunar/Warsong revamp
    Nirvana and 9 Trials dead
    New dailies/Weekly quesrs
    A few new instances
    Low-level quests are more rewarding

    What hasn't changed:

    Endgame stuff still in packs
    Players still complaining about everything
    PWE still breaking more than they fix
    Powerleveling is still a thing

    I'm sure there are missing things, but that's generally it.
    Also OP, search function is your friend.

    Well yes there are new things like tittle system, meridian and others mentioned above, we might also get new expansion this year.

    One thing that has not changed: PWI is still the world's leading free-to-play MMORPG

    free-to-play, pay-to-win, or farm-many-years-24/7-and-ruin-your-rl-to-win

    I recommend you do not waste time to this game, every expansion has made this game worse. Most of people has left this game during your absence. There are better games out there. b:bye

    Meh, you could objectify to that :)

    New race, the Earthguard, were input last year. With the seeker class having a Blender like AOE (x3) and Insanely good ranges sword skills, it sometimes can rival a barb and BM, but thats just my opinion :p
    And then there is the Mystic with is rivalling venos as a 1 man tanking machine, summoning plants and pets to help fight. and PvP with one can be immensely deadly.

    Nation Wars was input, which mad uncannys and raps immensely cheaper than they used to be because nirvana got killed. Some people were happy about the falling prices, others (such as merch players) not so.

    Title system gives small buffs, but I haven't tried that out yet o.o

    Loads of new gear, they have made endgame armor - g16- from the recasting of g15 lunar or nirvana. It can be argued its as strong as basic first cast rank 9/8 but opinions can vary.

    Dreamchaser packs are handed out by codes, which give newbie/low level players armor, a mount, and more things to help them progress through low level and mid-content better. This has actually been handy for me while introducing 9 of my college friends to the game. We've been running around the map causing shenanigans ;3

    Faction bases are available for level 3 factions, they can give great potions for use in TW (Pan Gu anybody? :p)

    As long as you, good sir, ignore the community screaming the game is dead, in which actually its not if you look at it in the right perspective, there is still plenty to do :) Atleast that is how I see it on ym server with my Vex-y guild ^_^

    It is possible to play without pay, but not at rate levels 1-100 in one month.

    Meridian system from my point of view (Wizard): now I had opened all possible gates and I have 33 Mystical pills as reserve for further levels.

    Title system ... I had completed some quests until moment, when I need kill boss in FC ... since I had never been in FC and I don't want to do it - I set title to Aviator and left it as is.

    My Wizard yesterday was in bh79 (tanked all bosses for squad with Seeker level 90+and 9k HP, other members in squad). Cleric said, that he saw first time, how Wizard tank Stygean Quartermaster. May be it was joke, but I was proud, that my Wizard can tank there.

    If only ignoring the forum community was effective enough -- when decisions have been made that affect us all (like removing Cube room 38 chrono quest) due to endless forum QQ.

    + making money - unless you are from a specific time zone - is nearly impossible now.

    Just ask for lead after BH100 Aba. Peach didnt change and every average geared sin can still solo it easily, with bp only.
