We are excited to announce that tonight's maintenance will include the patch for PWI War Front!

The patch notes can be viewed here.

We are starting the maintenance a little early tonight at 10 PM PST instead of the regular 11 PM PST since it will be a large update. Since this is an expansion maintenance it could last 4 to 5 hours.


Special Expansion Raffle!


To celebrate our 11th expansion being released on 11/11 we are holding two special giveaways! :)
All characters above LV50 that log in on 11/11 will be entered into the first raffle:
• We will pick 1111 random characters from those who logged in to receive 20 Event Gold.
All accounts that charge zen into the game will be entered into the second raffle:
• We will pick 11 users to win a War Avatar S Chest! (The item will go to the highest level character on your account)

    *Nation Wars are now cross-server. Each server will be assigned a different nation (at random), and battles will occur on Friday and Sunday at 20:10 CET. - CET = Central European Time right? , i guess thats a big kick in the **** to the west coast? o.O . so thats 12 noon for West coast and 2pm East coast , correct me if i'm wrong. Will the times for the new TW instance be the same time to?

Especially Sundays. Not QQ-ing as i am not from there just stating the facts lol.

    CET=Central European Time. That's Dawnglory's server time, Kitty assumes?

    So it will be amuricans that will be gimped here, especially on fridays as americans will be mainly working at NW-time. But that's 21:10 for Kitty so Kitty kinda lieks dat.    ​​

    Uh I don't think so. 20:10 CET (Central European Time) is actually 11:10 AM PST and 2:10 EST US. Good luck getting very many from the US to attend cross server NW on Friday morning

    Yes your right i totally misread that sorry xD , i guess it would of been hard for them to really figure out any time to suit everyones best needs but they have kinda screwed the west coast in that, east coast isnt so bad and the Harshlands players might come back to the game on EU server now they can participate in things to i guess.

    @jadasia yes your right , i honestly didnt thing it was that early misjudged by an hour though, thats a rawe deal :expressionless:

    i have to say @thenamesdomino that this is a very terrible idea. how can you run an event that only 1 server's people will be able to attend normally. i mean i get that you have to manage the times somehow but this friday timeslot for NW is really RE-TARDED.

    Damn, maybe they can let the change available for one week so I can actually not wake up at 5 am for NW. ​​

    Welcome to the **** timezone PWI :)

    Btw, what about cross Server TW? There is no info about it on the patch notes, so is it not being implemented?

    TBH....I like the time change as I would rather do it earlier in the day myself..however it does come with problems for people that clearly can't be there at that time. What I am really confused about is...why is this completely replacing REGULAR NW......why not have regular NW and cross server be 2 different things with different rewards? This makes little sense to me...or at least reduce the rewards to equal our and still have both.

    So let me get this: Normal NW is going to be replaced with Cros Server NW? There isnt going to be 2 different NW in diferent days like some ppl said will be? If its so than Im not happy about it.
    Good that ''The once-per-day restriction on entering the Endless Universe has been removed. Completing the quest after killing Ghost Wing will award you with an additional Tuc Su Toxin.'' . But let me ask this: if somehow I get out before killing Ghost Wing or somehow Ghost Wing teleports me and the squad kills him before Im back will I be able to enter again?
    Dont like the fact that BH TT3-1 have been replaced with FSP Mushi. Any other bh could have been replaced not Nemen.

    doubt see my icon but why not everyone spam that the cross server rotates time zones. each server time gets round hell rw is random days. wouldn't really be that hard add code make rotate by server

    Well, all the factions that have considerable amount of competitive people already do have the lands to meet the requirement, and you aren't resetting the map now so I don't get why there s a delay with this. But I'm fine with it

    You guys really do something about the "CET" **** that you spit on players if not you would lose more and more players no matter what content you release. What's the point in releasing a Cross server NW when clearly players in US cannot attend it on fridays? The ratio of EU players compared to US are peanuts and whoever made this decision have like -1 IQ lol

    You gotta see that the majority of ppl playing PWI at the moment (even on US server) are EU ppl. I can see no other explanation for this.

    BTT: I love you guys...those Patch Notes are pure Love <3 Absolutely Perfect. BUT. You didnt announce the times for X-Server TW and the new PvP-Event yet..I guess they follow later?

    I wish. For Sunday the time is ok, but for Friday it really sucks. I said previously that they should leave the time alone for Friday, and then set it to something more agreeable for Sunday. 22:20 CET would make more sense to me for Sunday's.

    Also, looks like PWE lied out their **** again. No 3-month reset for TW. I'm betting we're going to be getting the same 6-month cycle now due to the changes.

    Oh, and dare I forget to mention... Where is our esteemed CM?

    I'm betting he's in the same boat as our customer service team.​​

    Yay. Thanks PWE for **** over your whole oceanic region with that Nation War time switch. 4:10AM-6:10AM for the west coast of Australia.

    NW was the only good PvP left, thanks to you people switching ALL servers PvE even though I chose PvP for a REASON! I dont play this game for its PvE content. PvE content is pretty poorly designed at end game. I mean just look at WarSong City HALF OF YOUR GOD DAMN PROPS ARE FLOATING!

    GG PW... GG

    And i assume no majority of complaints will make them change the Time zone back to normal. Since Pwi never changes anything LOL. GG Pwi.

    Due to my work schedule, the new Friday NW is fine by me, and I look forward to it. Sunday, in either time prior or after the update was not good for me, so no loss.

    *To account for the times of cross-server Nation Wars, the 2pm Sunday timeslot for Territory Wars has been moved to 1:30pm.
    Correct me if I'm wrong here, but with NW at 20:10 CET (11:10am PST), that means that NW will last until 1:10pm PST, which puts it closer to 1:30pm than 2pm.

    How in the hell does this make any sense?​​
