    Hey everyone!

    Didn't see myself making this thread so soon, but I wanted to let you all know that my last day will be August 3rd with PWE.

    It just seems like only yesterday when I walked in, no longer just a PWI player but as someone who was an employee working to make PWI just a bit more perfect. It's been a wild ride and I'm so happy to have (hopefully!), in some small way, contributed to something more positive in the game. Going from working as QA, to then Content Engagement Specialist to finally Associate Product Manager has been of the craziest but fun experiences I've ever had.

    Sunny will be taking on the mantle in my stead, so please give him a warm welcome!

    Typically departures are only seen on the last day, so why am I making this thread "early"?
    I'm in the process of wrapping things up on my end, but while I'm still here, I want to try what I can to pass along up the chain. Bugs and localization, depending on what they are, could probably be fixed easier than things like system updates/proposals, but still feel free to drop them here! Things about recent CN updates I might not be able to speak too much on since I don't have the full details of some of that. But feel free to drop anything down below.

    And as always, thanks so much for playing PWI and hope to see you in game! <3

    -Kalyst

    I don't play PWI too much anymore so sadly I don't think I would be able to know who your character was in the end or see you in game, but from what I understand I think we both played on same server (Archo). But still, all I can say is best of luck on your new job and in life in general.

    Also I have to say that regardless of my opinion on PWE and the Developer, at least my opinion on you as CM is overall good.
    If I would think of another CM that I also liked but that sadly in his case i think he was removed (could be wrong on this) was Sparkysoft or whatever his name was.

    As I say before best of luck on your future job and life. :)

    Hello Kaly! I'm upset to see you go. Even if it's hard to believe, the previous Employees did NOT do as much for the community as you did. Hardly any events that involved the playerbase and doing something fun, other than just opening our wallets. Despite several events going wrong, let's be honest we enjoyed those. You had an open ear for playerbase suggestions and worries. And to be honest i DONT like seeing sunny take over. Sunny may have been active in the background, but to us players the past weeks, forums seemed totally abandoned. We even had 2 weeks with no maintenance hints in the forums at all.

    Also essential information regarding events, game internal issues and reward system, is being passed in Twitter and Facebook. Twitter has 700 Followers, for a game that has got like 2 mil accs. Same with facebook, more and more ppl turning their back on facebook. If you look closer, PWI Facebook is only filled, and i mean like 90% of the comments there are from ppl who dont even play pwi, and just whine about all what went wrong. The actual active playerbase, still preferably uses forums. And sunny so far give so much about the forums, that he didnt even bother to introduce self. BAD start.

    Before you go, please pass those 2 informations to the team: the Auction House gold cap needs to removd, currently it is set at 4mil, it is impossible to buy any Gold, without having a player as middleman. As it is hard to find a suitable Gold cap, just let it loose. If the price is too high, the demand decreases and prices drop, so the Gold market in AH would keep itself running. And as second a personal request:

    PLEASE and i beg you, tell the Chinese developers to consider creating a un-bind stone for War Avatar cards. The unbinding would be chance based, the more unbind stones you use, the higher the % chance to unbind. If the unbinding succeed the card would be "binds on equip" and is reset to level 1/40 or 1/80. If the unbind fails, the card gets destroyed, as simple as that. PLEASE make them create chance based unbinding stone for War Avatar Cards. War avatars are trading cards, i d love to collect and TRADE those, like Yu Gi Oh cards in the old days! Maybe even hav War Avatar battles in your Homestead? As im saying like Yu Gi Oh. With UNBOUND war avatar cards. Please tell the devs, im sure they will like the idea.

    Hugs and ty! Looking forward to the new DQ Transmutation too.

    Yes its sad that Kalys is leaving ,but you guys have to keep an open mind
    that this is pretty common within the company. without going into to many details
    sometimes they are also moved to other more popular games that the company offers as they see fit.

    Sorry to see you go. I think you have been one of the better employees they have. You seemed to really try to be there for the community. I know it was meantioned but the faction goals, if they even just added fsd to count toward goals it would make a difference for my faction. Would be nice if they added things like WS or IU to the list of points also. And tell them we want more events, miss the tiger event and the wraith hunter events.

    @raevvenn ...gold ah cap is there for a reason... the demand will never get down since basically you need gold every time. well its basically limitless now. trading from players means you won't lose gold since they also pay for envelopes.

    question about the market...

    5 months since i was gone all the things that got down are my friendslist and those moonlight tomes was 1b+ now they sell it for 400-700...the starting script tome from 40m now is 75m.... nw stuff got lowered as well so no farming for you...and basically almost everything went up even the mirage.....was 10k before......20k now....
    one thing that bothers me is
    why is there a demand for GST and MOGS?
    well gst is 20m (stayed the same for 7 months.. that is pwi market for yah...) and mogs 40m+. (this got lowered somehow from 60m before)
    my pwi friends basically the new players who needed this gst and mogs are gone and basically 90% of the nubs that joined during the 2017-2018 pwi downfall are nowhere to be found...my arms and gears seller old time friend is gone...
    so who buys those gst and mogs to stay the same price for 8 months. when basically cs'er will only take a week to r9....lol do they r9 their merchant? just a serious question....coz everybody is already r9 in nw/xnw and in tw aswell....
    also g17 stuff is upward trend coz they already have r9 and g17 is the next big thing and the price of g17 stuff is almost the same as when i left it... when basically all the old timers are hoarding those things now...when everybody is r9..(those who didnt left) the demand for g17 is pretty high but the price...... only went up by a bit... 200k.....lol....so they only buy r9 mats and stay there.... coz im pretty sure i already saw 2 digit people having g175th cast in tw.....
    why is gst and mogs same price as i left when everybody else is already r9?..............still bugs me since yesterday...

    @jsxshadow This I've been debating. I doubt I'd get in much trouble after the fact, but their rules were more for keeping me sane than anything (this and the fact that if an employee's personal character was revealed to the public, any words coming from them would be representative of the company and/or be taken as gospel by the playerbase). I've toyed with the idea of streaming that reveal, but it depends on how the next few days shake out.

    Some either suspect, or know by virtue of knowing my on my other socials (FB) and for many years IRL. That stuff, the company couldn't control. I'm grateful for those that didn't say anything after all this time, it must've been incredibly weird.

    Because not everyone has a huge mouth and goes around telling the world things they don't need to know. The people that need to know, already know and act as friends. Its more of a respect issue than anything else.

    At least you can now chill and spend more time enjoying the game, to whatever extent that might be.

    Was nice seeing you around kaly happy trails .

    Id like to still see a friend list extension stone if thats possible hard training so many new players in how to's in utilizing skills ect or assisting others, I'm not part of faction with since I decided to join an upper tier fac for a little while primarily endgame stuffs.

    Because the faction will focus on those things instead of helping pvpers or alot of ftpers, I'd still like to help the server of those that cannot afford gears ect .To help them get stuff done

    But it's hard wcing all the time when I can just pm or they pm me or just to afk and chat.

    Alot of older players have maxed fl so they cannot add more unless they alt but that kinda beats the purpose of being on your main.
    Vae Victis.

    pill baby code going away present....
    suggestion for future events

    and maybe another time based get reward points event just to start people coming back again.
    we need proactive events that actually people get to earn something just to stay online. not the pots... gst deity and something of value.

    Wow, surprised to hear this day has come.

    I don't play anymore or really log forums but I logged to let you to know that the events, the communication and the genuine care you gave to this community in the time that you were active was the best thing that could have happened to this game. I think it's quite clear to many that PWE is entering an end stage, so while it is sad to see you go, I couldn't be more happy for you that you are moving on to greener pastures.

    My time here ended long ago, but you definitely were a bright star in some dark times in our "Perfect World" (even if some of the updates you gave us were things we were most unhappy to hear!)

    I hope that you look back on us with at least an understanding that even if we did not always express it, even if we didn't love everything that happened in PWI... I think I speak for everyone when I say we loved a lot of what you did.

    Wishing you the best,

    Eir

    Hi Kalyst,

    Much like Eir, I barely play these days aside from helping my faction in TW when needed, but I did want to leave a quick note here to say thank you for your great work on behalf of the community. It couldn't have been easy delivering some of the bad news you had to deliver or realizing that you couldn't give the community what it wanted in some of those tough cases. It was always nice knowing that an actual PWI PLAYER like you was behind the scenes working for us because you know the ins and outs of the game and could speak to the issues on that level.

    I hope you're moving on to an opportunity where you'll be valued and appreciated for your work! Take care and best of luck in your new career.

    You'll find after that pack fiasco tons of ppl have billions in disposable income around I'm sure the demand is being generated by ppl gearing alts for "endgame instances" the community won't let you participate in unless you have "decent (to their standards) gear". The reason the price is high is due to the player controlled pricing and the demand which started on our server after they gave away the last pill baby code. Before that code there wasn't a whole lot of shops selling r9 materials then suddenly they were all over and priced quite high.

    Thanks so much everyone for your kind words (and the list of things to work on as well/not so good things- some of it definitely needed to be said!)

    Transition periods are never fun and it will be rocky. But I hope you all give Sunny time to adjust and welcome him as much as you've welcomed me in the past!

    I don't think I can really swing a code this late in the game, sorry!

    I can't see it now on my profile and unsure if it shows it to users, but there's "linked" accounts that I was able to see, and my personal account was linked to it.
    If I post under that forum name, well...lets just say it's not the most mature name in the world. *coughs*

    Below the break is regarding me live streaming today - if you're not into that kind of thing or just don't really care, you can ignore everything below the space and break.







    I try not to shamelessly promote or anything, but today I'll be live on Twitch around 4 PM talking about my time here. Feel free to drop on by, ask questions, and then I'll be jumping into game after that so, you can see who I was (and probably laugh or cringe, depending on your experiences with me as a player. I apologize in advance if I ever wronged you in some way or was not very nice, I swear I'm more mellow now!)

    Just search me on Twitch by the name KalystC and it should pop up with the same picture I use around the forums. I play Puzzle and Dragons pretty regularly on stream plus some JRPG's and will branch into other MMO's and games. So, if you feel so inclined, you can catch me there!

    I'll also be going to Twitchcon this year so if you feel like meeting up there we can!

    Hope to see you all in-game!
