3) New daily registration system. Can miss <= 3 days a month and get full credit. There are daily rewards too on a schedule.

Wanted to clarify this now that I've actually taken a look at it -- the "daily rewards" are not changed on a per-day basis, but instead work like so:

September has 30 days, so it has a list of 30 items. On the first day you sign in during September, you unlock the first reward. One the second day you sign in during September, you unlock the second reward; and so on. You get the rewards in order regardless of which actual days you sign in on (and they don't necessarily have to be consecutive).

September's list of rewards on PWCN, in order:

1 Teleacoustic
1 Fantasy Fruit
1 Teleport Incense
1 Sutra Power Orb
1 Teleport Stone
1 Mystical Pill
1 Hyper EXP Stone
2 Teleport Incense
2 Teleport Stone
1 Reflective Shard
1 Martial Arts Scroll
1 Amber Gold Ink
1 Guardian Scroll
1 War Avatar Pack: C
1 Mystical Pill
1 Reflective Shard
1 Hyper EXP Stone
1 Amber Gold Ink
1 Radiant Shard
1 Holy Pill
1 Squad Signet
1 Martial Arts Scroll
1 Amber Gold Ink
1 Arcane Sky Pill
1 Radiant Shard
1 Primordial Blood
1 Holy Pill
1 War Avatar Pack: A
1 Primordial Blood
1 Squad Signet




While we're at it, they have new ugly-*** unitframes now.

They only hyped it at early announcement then. A lot were mentioned such as arcade like combat, new graphic engine (shadowland3 / angelica3), etc, that made us really think it was a brand new title instead of an expansion.

Shameless lies that serious company should never attempt, unless they take their playerbase as an idiots.

Ah that makes a lot of sense, actually. And it also means we can't just skip days to get only rewards we want like I'd initially assumed. Still nice to have a bit of added benefit for checking in.


As for the UI... meh. And odds are PWI will switch to the new one and phase out support for the current one just like they did to the classic UI.

Eoria - Harshlands

Hoping we can keep using the current UI somehow. I really like it. Zzzz...

Xainou - Sanctuary

I actually quite like that bit of new UI ._.

XXHotXx - Morai

I'd really desire the translation of the final skills release especially for night shadow :S

Toriell - Sanctuary

Sorry for a silly question - is ini editing allowed in PWCN?
If so has anyone tried to use the eyelashes of a new race to old ones? I want such eyelashes on my female chars but I don't want my males bat their eyelashes. b:pleased

INI editing was legal on every server except PWI until we got the update to our rules on it. As is, we still have the most restrictive rules when it comes to editing INI files... but better than it being completely against the rules here.

Toriell - Sanctuary

Ok, then I'll try to edit ini but not sure it goes well. I wish old races have such gorgeous eyelashes but only for females. Thank you for clarifying, OPKossy.

Thanks for the link, the bing translations were much clearer from Russian than they were were from Chinese. My question is, you grouped the copy skills for both classes with the primal passive buffs, does that mean those 2 skills are primal skills?

XXHotXx - Morai

looking @ night shadow skills

oh god lunar drink + moment = free teleparalyze spam? :O

decreases chance to receive critical damage by 22% ? :O sand miasma rekt

it has a 3 seconds stealth? :O

reels in? :O

the ranged damage reduction seems its a passive skill, not a squad buff

wow overall seems a quite nice class, very paralyze to melee dps oriented

this will be a beast in 1on1 b:dirty

looking into moon fairy class

30 min squad buff that reduces incoming damage by 20%? :O

aoe knockback that works on players :O

it has a passive skill that reduces damage from auto attacks by 60 (s i x t y) % :O (Clan Blood Moon Rising) is this confirmed?

it creates a decoy for 20 seconds :O

wow amazing also demon form increases phys res by 240% :O

its better than expected

Its 79lvl skills. Clan Blood Moon Rising numbers right. Both squad buffs expires with changing area like mystics buffs. And i personally think moon fairy buff reduce only any physical damage.

So, as far as I can tell Night Shadow's copycat skills are;

Blademaster's Heaven's Flame (oh great! <.<)
Wizard's Black Ice Dragon Strike (well...their race has something to do with dragons so it makes sense)
Archer's Stormrage Eagleon (ok.I guess...?)
Cleric's Ironheart Blessing (well)
Barbarian's Invoke the Spirit (mhm)
Venomancer's ???
Assassin's Subsea Strike (god thank it's not tidal or nerves)
Psychic's Soul of Retaliation (ok)
Seeker's Quid Pro Quo (:/)
Mystic's Falling Petals (It says Thicket in the translation but I remember it being changed to Falling Petals? at least they stole a not-so-powerful skill)
Night Shadow's Eclipse (why are they copying their own skill. lol)
Moon Fairy's 59 skill which is that purple tornado that draws aggro.

There are two skills that I can't place...

Moon Water Mirror Flower - Strong Sprint Kill
Range 4.5m
Channel 0.1s
Cast 1.0s
Cooldown 60.0s

Inflict base physical attack damage plus X physical damage and increase crit rate by 30% for 8sec.

Costs 2 sparks.

and

Moon Water Mirror Flowers - Hunting Magic Mirror
Melee Range
Mana 232
Channel 0.1s
Cast 1.0s
Cooldown 60.0s

Basic attack on a target causing attached 3799 physical damage. If the target is a mob, this damage is tripled.

Why do they have 13 copycat skills instead of 12. There are 12 classes. What is happening! >.<

And apparently it's a 79 skill.

The crit increase is a copy of assassin Power Dash 2 sparks and 8 second duration. Same same same.

You probably don't know the answer
I still can't tell veno skill...

How does this skill even works like? Do they need that different class (who is a party member?) to steal their skill or... what? Are they gonna farm stuff for different skills? Or is it random, like I click the icon and it turns into a skill from other classes?

Sorry, I kinda talked about this skill too much.

Who's the copycat class now, mystic-haters? b:cry

Eoria - Harshlands

My closest explanation for the veno one is Demon Fox Wallop.

Toriell - Sanctuary

What about skills that are learnt with skill books? Do we still need them to learn sage/demon skills?
The new skill learning system is quite comfortable but I wish we could learn skills when flying too.


And it's good that one can gather herbs and other resources without a pickaxe. b:laugh
Also there are some missing NPCs in Lochmur treasure quests.

ZentDreigon - Raging Tide

I wonder about places like Morai entrance where each race has its platform. Aestetic changes could happen. I wondered this about the Origination, but that's a goner. Curious about other things involving the 5 current races and the way the 6th might or not be put in.

I'm probably one of the very few wondering about this. b:laugh

Toriell - Sanctuary

What is that code system that many people ask about in WC in PWCN? Where can one get those codes for flyers and such?

Night Shadow's Eclipse (why are they copying their own skill. lol) , maybe different cooldown for it.

How long is the cooldown of this copycat skill ? Does specific class have to be near this class for them to be able to use it or how does it work ?

for example Cleric's IH, will the amount of IH regen HP the same as the cleric being copied or what ?

IIRC, Eoria said the amounf of healing will be based on Night Shadow's phy attack. As for the other skills, most of them have a lower chance to work than their original counterparts or they are completely same.

We only know the copycat Eclipse's cooldown, which is 1min.

I don't how does this skill works like but I'm really curious about it. I start to like playing my sin alt so I'll definetely try this new LA class just for the sake of this skill b:chuckle

*still clueless about veno skill*

freygin

Thank god IH will be taken based from their own patk.

This class will have zerkcrit , right ? since it's LA and melee. Would be OP with heaven's flame. Zerk = x2 dmg, crit = x2 dmg, heaven's flame = 2x dmg, 2x2x2= 8x dmg >_<' . The dev should pick more useless skill from BMs, like Stormrage Eagleon from archers b:chuckle

Mel has just posted a video of the night shadow's 79 skill with the copying. It seem you need to have the class you want to target in proximity and targeted in order for you to use its skill. Pretty neat, and I like it has limitations.

Woah! It's really cool. So they have their own animations for copycat skills.

Now. I really want to see moon fairy's decoy/clone skill.

Here's all 1-59 moon fairy skills. I found it in Russian site. >Link<

Toriell - Sanctuary

I wonder what buffs they can steal and if they can redirect it to other person or just for themselves?

Ummmm if you read a few posts above you'll see what skills they can steal (not buffs). Also, no, they skills are only for themselves.

Mahidevran - Archosaur

It's confirmed in the video that they can copy Power Dash from sins. They can't steal 2 skills from the same class >.<

I compared Subsea Strike with Veno skills and Malefic Crush is the only skill that bears similarities with Subsea Strike. Their range is 8 meters, they cost 2 sparks. I guess Eoria simply made a mistake. Maybe instead of manaburn, their Malefic Crush increases damage taken?

Sooooooooooo... they can copy;

Heaven's Flame
Black Ice Dragon Strike

Stormrage Eagleon
Ironheart Blessing

Invoke the Spirit
Malefic Crush

Power Dash
Soul of Retaliation

Quid Pro Quo
Falling Petals

"Eclipse"
purple tornado

Case closed. b:bye

ZentDreigon - Raging Tide

Any info on weather this copycat skill copies the sage/demon/primal effects?

Also...

Eoria - Harshlands wrote: »

Moon Water Mirror Flower - Montreal Branch
Range 28.5m
Channel 0.1s
Cast 1.0s
Cooldown 60.0s

It's thicket.

Costs 2 sparks.

I believe it's in fact Thicket as it costs 2 sparks. Not Falling Petals. One heal is enough.

Quilue - Sanctuary

Just get rid of auto cult gawwwd. This is going to be so stupid.
