-Clarified the description of the Barbarian's Raging Slash (Demon) skill
-Fixed a typo in the Dragonslayer title
-The Morning Dew skill now displays the correct name in the cast bar
-Clarified the description of the Wizard's Elemental Invocation skill
-Corrected grammatical errors in several Twilight Temple and Whetstone Keep quests
-The NPC formerly known as Snowtear is now consistently named Hsuelei
-Corrected a typo on the Twilight Temple map
-Corrected the erroneous tooltip on the Military and Magical Charms
-The Cube of Fate map now displays the correct instance name

This week's maintenance question:

If you could ask the Elders of Perfect World to change one thing in any of their cities, what would it be?

SweetieBot - Lothranis

First non-human reply!

The latest manual patch appears to be: Patch 748-752 14.3MB (15020660 bytes)
That's average-sized.

This patch hasn't been officially listed yet.

>Archosaur
-Have a free teleportation spot to the boat in the eastern waters created
-Alternatively, create larger walls because Titans.
-Alternative Alternative: stop protecting Duke Black for one night.

>Thousand Streams
Stick signs that automatically create pop-ups when near the Sage/Demon guides Mo Zun and Master Li so that those who aren't attentive will get an additional warning about which NPC is for one particular cultivation

>Town of Arrivals
-More ground-based housing. Waking up, opening your door and accidentally falling several stories must be quite a pain

>Sanctuary
Population Control of the native Huggy Hares

>Raging Tides
Crash the castle in the sky into the city...to reduce graphic-lag

Toraah - Archosaur

The typo in the "Dragonslayer" title is being fixed?
But that's the best thing about that title.

where is our answer about DQ rewards ????????

do we cash them all in now?

will they be completely gone from the game after this maint???

where is the blog that was supposed to be put up?

i think a lot of people are going to be really angry if they lost all their DQ points without warning.

Don't you mean assassin? ._.

Sien - Heavens Tear

I want houses to put all the random WQ objects in I have collected over the years.

Rawynn - Archosaur

so no fix for the missing and non fuctional npcs from the last big update i.e. missing tile and hairpin?!, as well as the loss of the holy pill quest npc's?b:angryb:angryb:angry

Not to mention the missing Veno Feral Star NPC and the fact you can't even start the daily without being stuck in pk for 10 hours.

At least they bothered to mention what they are fixing this time. Wish they would do that every maintenance.

I would ask for a Teacher Quest NPC anywhere other than central platform!!

CapnK - Sanctuary

A banker in the central area of Tellus.

willtam1980

I think that options to different locations on perfect world map would be good after the nation wars. Once done with nation wars everyone exits in the same area. The lag is strong near the exit directly after nation wars. Therefore, create location options like 1k, dreameaver, arch and lost.. If you was to give options for people it would cut down on the lag spikes from non nation war players that may be passing by the nw agent area. b:pleased

It's Tuesday.

+1 to that! And a set of NPCs there would be nice too, with a Wang Tsai for people that get Dreamchaser packs.

Archosaur, for a ramp to the center platform. I am lazy and dislike changing from mount to wings. Or some sort of portal like the Tellus Elder has going on.

Raging Tides, also for a Wang Tsai. And for the Elder to hang out a little closer to the teleport because that's a long annoying run in Tiger Event.

Etherblade and Plume, to get an Advanced Grinding Machine near JJ.

Got the same questions.

bobomatica

id like to see no catshop zones around all npcs especially for the idiots that put them on top of the npcs. thanks

Servetje - Morai

My questions are about the DQ points:

1.Does the event gold system stay?
2.Is there going to be a other system/events to obtain event gold?
3.What happens with assault on archo event? (without DQ points dropping event is furtile)
4.Is there going to be an alternate way to farm coins, since DQ points gave a fair amount coins.

Now question about commision shop:

the plan lan to make a commision shop is a nice new system and if it was a free option in the game it would kill 90% of the cat shops and the freaking lag in Archosaur
Now it is a nice new feature and i do like how it is looking, but it is poorly executed from pwi side to ask a huge amount of gold to open a commision shop. And therefor now it is just a richboy tool, wich on Morai server only 2 players use.

So does this commision shop going to change, so a average user could make a shop?

They've already done this. For those who took the time to do their Tideborn quest chain all the way through, there is a free Platinum HP charm for killing the fish monster. Tideborn chain starts at 40, with a second set at 51 and again at 60...after you've completed the chain, there is a plat hp charm. Go to the banks of the White Sands Beach right outside Raging Tides; there's an npc under or near a mushroom (I can't remember her name). Take her quest, do it...and get your charm.

As for me, I would be happy if the Elders of the cities would STOP offering me the Blacksmith, Tailor, etc quests! I cashed my crafting skills (not ashamed to admit it, either)...take the quest reminders for these skills out of the Elders' quest lists for those of us who don't need them and will never do them...because we already have the skill! Thanks....

....ummm... they do ... in a lv 5 quest .. they're called "Small Guardian charm".

In addition.. the GMs gave everyone the chance to get several items for free last month, some of which included a gold guardian charm and gold spirit charm
