    *New forges in Archosaur allow you to reforge and upgrade max-level gear, including Rank IX and Warsoul items.

    ^ From the updated patch notes.

    Quick question: Was this a typo? In PW-CN afaik the forges only had upgraded R8R, not R9. Are we getting R9 upgrades instead?
    there are no stupid questions, just a lot of inquisitive idiots.

    Sweetiebot is our resident happy troll... it's okay to expect a lot from her and her wisecrack snarky replies are part of the deal.

    - When is it over? OMG I need my fix!! *super spazzing*
    - Fix the damn bugs, dammit! I'm so angry! I'll quit!!
    - New codes out there? I like free stuff~ *wink*
    - When will we get new content? QQ
    - Will we get sales? I got a ton of gold to spend.
    - I'm bored, I'll create a useless thread to annoy Opkorock.

    Giving us completely different forges happened for Nation War. Would be awesome for the new instance to be relevant for endgame players. Could PWI have an ace up their sleave?


    The manual patch should be this link but I don't see anything there yet:

    Will there be more character slots added?

    7 days to delete a character is just really annoying. I just found out about the expansion 2 days ago.

    This makes me think that an auto-sorting button in the wardrobe section would be great.

    If you could have 1 new thing in this expansion, that has never existed before in PWI, what would it be and why?

    A way to see the duration of buffs/debuffs on a character would be very useful.

    Let's see here... I think personally I'd like to see a boss that takes way too long for one simple squad to kill and requires several that can enter one instance. Maybe given 1 billion hp? with always random drops so it doesn't go to one squad.
    Dreams are just dreams...

    We have to get China to make those for us, and lately they haven't been doing it for us. I've poked them once again to get us one, since this patch is pretty big.

    Hi all asking about a Manual patch. If surtr or who ever needs to do do, does not update the system used, Sweetiebot will never find the correct patch if it is there. This has happened in the past and it has had to be updated so her program can find it. I hope who ever needs to do so does so soon so we can all download the patch. I also do not like the patcher way of doing it and with everyone trying to download this large update as soon as they can, there will be a lot of lag trying to use the patcher and depending on your PC, could take hours to do. I will ask Sweetie to look again, but I think we will just get the same link to an old patch until their system is updated. Have a great one all and have fun.b:thanks

    SweetieBot, please find the manual patch.


    Edit: I started to write this before Sparkie put up his above post. I guess we shall have to see if a miracle occurs and we get a manual patch before we are all forced to use the patcher to update. I am not looking forward to hours of downloading and not be able to use my PC in fear of interfering with such a large update.

    Sparkie can you be clearer on the times? I'm not too certain about it because when I clicked on your link, it made it seem like it was going on NOW. Which doesn't seem to be the case. So what are estimated time and all the good stuff, because that was confusing the hell out of me


    EDIT: What will the forums look like with this update? I'm very curious about that hehehe

    Here's to hoping they send one. Is there at least an estimate of the size of the expansion?

    Everything will be live once the maintenance is over, so 6AM (assuming no delays).

    As for "12 Noon" regarding the Illusionary Stone, here's the time converter in case you're wondering about the conversion from our time to yours: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20141217T12

    Forums will probably look the same for now. I'm not aware of any changes as of yet.
