this vid shows last patch untamed flyer and the char is still just a second reborn

How does that video confirm anything at all about there not being a new reborn though, all you see is a veno flying around on a new flyer... Just because the reawake thingy still seems to say 2 for her, doesn't confirm anything.

It's unlikely that we get a third, and I hope we don't but this doesn't confirm anything.

Aside from 3rd reborn...

Anyone else notice that icon under the Veno's HP/MP bars?
I'm gonna risk my nooblet self and say I've never seen that.

Anyone want to enlighten me?

My guess is it's the Chinese version of the number that appears on our character portraits to show which reawakening we're on.

No, their reawakening number shows in the same place, the veno is having an odd buff icon that is unknown below her hp/mp bars.

Where we see our "2" for second reawakening underneath our in-game headshot, they see "二"
But then more stylish than that lol.

Yeah. That symbol is what I was referring to as well since I just gave the video a quick glance and thought that was what he meant.

Lemme go give it another look then and see about the buff icon. ^^;

fragon001

Can't find it in the http://pwi-wiki.perfectworld.com/index.php/Status_Icon_Reference_Guide, must be new.

opkossy

Yeah seems so. It's certainly not any buff I can recall off the top of my head.

And only the veno in that squad seemed to have it, so I'm not too sure what the source is.

Fryvorg - Sanctuary

My guess is it's a new temporary buff from packs, just like the ones we got recently.

As for the red chat spam: Their Duke probably announces more stuff than ours. Seeing Chinese like horns more than us, I would think Duke doesn't bother them as much either. b:laugh

Yeah. Our Duke gets shut up every time and whenever we get major patches from China, it always includes their "Sir yellsalot" Duke and we have to get whoever shuts him up to shut him up again. XD

she unlocked the new primal dailies\map\quests and doing them

usually to do higher tier primal quests you need higher reborns

she is second reborn

also - (er) is the chinese word for number 2

I'm assuming you're playing around but since someone will think that you're saying there's another reawakening coming...

No, wasn't playing, his phrasing was bad which confused me. He said "till this patch" which sounds like this patch has third reborn. What he meant was, "as of this patch there is still not a third reborn".

Ah okay. Yeah I can see what you mean with the wording now that I looked over it again. Good thing you asked then. XD

Possibly the new buff pot from that new TW thing that gives spirit + reduce critical damage.

Pretty sure these rings are technically worse than the upgraded Sky Cover/Cloud Stir due missing some atk+def levels.



ggwp. I called this ages ago.

I am not so sure, as capn said, depends on refines.

Sky cover = 114 pattack base
Star destiny = 156 pattack base
New donut ring = 160 pattack base.

Sky cover+12 = 1575
Star destiny+12 = 1687
New Donut ring+12 = 1800??

If refines are better, might be better than our nw versions. Question is how to farm it? Even if refines are same as star destiny, but it is easier to farm. I would get the ring, because spending 250~350m on a sky cover is not my cup of tea. Maybe not be the best, but better than r8 ring.

I'm pretty sure you need a Sky Cover/Cloud Stir to make these new rings in the first place. Thus the question is how much better, if at all, is it compared to a Star's Destiny/Moon's Embrace?

XXHotXx - Morai

btw the +10 spirit is nothing that could justify a ring switch, it should be at least a +50 spirit to be a reasonable upgrade

Metalogue - Archosaur

lol @ giving up 5 attack and 3 defense for 10 vit, 10 spirit, 4 phys attack, and potentially higher refines. I'm guessing since this is all about crafting, that the upgrade is virtually free from sky/cloud. Which would be cool, wouldn't mind more... not-so-endgame-gear-but-still-costs-a-fortune?

(Basically, it could be some really bad equivalent for star/moon like how g16 is to rrr9. If only the base ring didn't cost so much, it could make sense. But again, this is all just a guess)

Upon first glance, I totally thought the +10 stats were attack and defense, glad to find out that this isn't the case.

I see your point, in that case it would take a deeper look at the ring if skycover/cloudstir is the base.

I am going to give my 2 cents into this thread. Please note that items we have on our version of PW are completely different than those on PWCN due to the fact we are intensely cash shopped based. PWCN does not have star's destiny they only have Sky Covers these rings they have are their versions of star's destiny and moon's embrace. I highly doubt we will be getting these items, because these are their replacements for what we are given as our NW upgrades. Their NW upgrades require more effort and time and are more difficult to obtain. Their Rank 9-3 sets are also a lot more powerful than ours, this is because their servers have tons of players that have been playing for a very long time and rank 9 to them is actually very scarce.

PWI gets a modified version of the PWCN game something fine tuned to our likings and desires. We also are given a subset of what they offer which sucks, especially in the aesthetics like fashion/mounts/etc.

Their r9-3 is not much more powerful than ours. Main difference is ours has more attack due to +100 magic/str/dex and theirs has much more critical hit rate which compensates lack of attack in a way. Def, hp and other stats are about the same, especially with our ability to edit stats rerolling over and over. Overall difference is so insignificant that I really don't understand the necessity to make a special version of r9r for PWI.

I think so too, they also don't have cube necklace nw upgrade as far as I know. Not everything that appears in pwch ends up coming here. But craftable and easier available crown of madness I wouldn't mind b:chuckle

Their rrr9 looks 10 times cooler and that makes its power surge to over 9 000 !!!!!!!!!!!

Truth.

RankNine - Momaganon

so what about the part with the crown of madness?

Boomz - Harshlands

bump cause more info wanted... BTW based on the timeline for a new big update we are due for one relatively soon whether it be expansion #8 or sub-expansion of new horizons.

edit: based on this http://pwi-wiki.perfectworld.com/index.php/Expansions

Edit #2: hopefully an expansion with skill changes will come, class balance atm is broken

Asterelle - Sanctuary

To clear up the misinformation:

- No new way to acquire Crown of Madness.
- Upgrading the Sky Cover / Cloud Stir requires a pack item (0.0006% chance)
- There are actually 4 new rings, 2 versions of each upgrade Forge Image
- One upgrade version refines for pdef while the other one refines mres
- Refine rate is same as G15 (+1575 mres or pdef at +12)
- Chienkun transfer rate is 0.2 (200 chienkuns to transfer +12)
- You can swap between the pdef / mres versions of each ring (0.05 chienkun rate + 1 mirage)
