Wildwalker Update - The Good The Bad and The Broken/Bugs

Surpriiiise! The content update has landed (unexpectedly early)!

Post here about the update, whether it's good or bad. If there's any issues/bugs please report them here so we can pass them forward to staff. I'll be keeping a list of issues in this post and will try to update the status of each one if I get information on it.

NOTE: You should probably not be PKing newly-created Wildwalkers that have been forced into PK mode as it is unintentional, and thus is a bannable offense.

Patch Notes:
Issues/Bugs:
  • Wildwalkers are in PK mode upon creation and can change back to blue name after 10 hours. This also affects using the bank - the problem is solved when you swap out of PK mode or turn level 30. Not sure if this is affecting other classes. Sent to staff, awaiting response
  • Wildwalkers cannot learn skills in the Celestial Vale but can learn them on other maps. Not sure if this is affecting other classes. The issue has been resolved.
  • November attendance has been wiped out for all players. I believe on other versions they gave attendance notes as compensation, so we probably need it here as well. Compensation is now available until January 9th, 2022. https://www.arcgames.com/en/games/pwi/news/detail/11505583-compensation-for-content-update-attendance-issue
  • Wildwalkers do not have rank 9 3rd cast equipment. This is in discussion with devs.
  • Wildwalkers have rank 9 4th cast equipment, but there is no way to craft it since we do not use the same forge CN does. Sent to staff, no specific response but possibly in discussion like r9 3rd cast.
  • Crashing occurs near Firefly Village (coordinates roughly 330 701). This appears to be due to an issue with a building or texture. If you find other areas that also cause crashes, please add them to this thread. The issue has been resolved.
  • Arigora Colosseum 3v3 squad matchmaking doesn't appear to be working. Says "Missing Item", but it's not clear what the required item is. I suspect the item is this one: https://www.pwdatabase.com/cn/items/69972 which should be getting sold through Khroatis, but he isn't selling it on PWI. Sent to staff, awaiting response
  • Many players are experiencing corrupted file errors when trying to update the game. Reinstalling and verifying files will not always fix it. Players are reporting that after several verifies, the issue gets fixed. Players are still experiencing this issue. The devs are still trying to identify the issue and how to fix.
  • Players are also experiencing crashes when trying to launch the client or log into the game. Again, reinstalling and verifying files does not fix it. Devs are still trying to identify the issue. Staff are requesting log files from affected users.
    Also have been told: "Most users still affected are also using onboard Intel graphics, so that could be a potential cause.
    If they are able to use a device with a dedicated Nvidia graphics card, that might be able to help run the game for now."

    Monkeys are on PK mode already after creating them. Someone [removed text because this is potentially bannable]

    Wildwalker cannot learn skills as long as they are in Celestial Vale. I just finished the quests there and popped to Archo and I can now learn all the learnable skills.

    Seems like everyone attendance resetted and we all missed 16days.
    Was looking to make an absence note at the npc's near arch bankers with tokens of luck.
    But seems like they dont do that anymore.
    Found out they are for sale in boutique.

    So we gotta pay for an absence note from now on?

    same problem here. And always must watch the movie that I dont understand, just to be disconnected after serverchoice. Can they apply ONE patch without breaking something???
    And it helps soooo much to have 3x exp and 2x drop + coin but we cant log in

    Do you know where the celestial matron for celestial infant can be found now ?
    NPC is no more in Nicada.

    Twilight sky chars get the quest for celestial infant items (Stargazer in Archosaur, then 6 treasure maps).

    If I'm remembering correctly, they moved the matron to northwest archosaur.

    The new boutique item, Wild Blood Crystal Pack.
    Is this only availeble for the new class or all classes??

    I hope for all, cuz that wont be fair at all for all other classes.

    instance rewards have all been changed. I've been watching the Russian servers websites / forums for this information. however I am unsure if I am allowed to post the information / link here. what I would like to know is in the past they've given us a code for event gold because of the DST maintenance disruptions, will they do it again?

    They removed the limit I've been told.

    You can go ahead and post links/info if you'd like, especially since we don't have english patch notes at the moment.
    As for the DST maint compensation, we will request a code for it.

    Also, WARNING do not get the war avatar morai box from the blessing agent, watched a guildie get it, and when he opened it, he got nothing at all.

    EDIT nevermind, either way its only a single card option not all of the cards.

    Not very impressed.

    Can't get my accounts logged in and if by chance they do log in they corrupt my computer.

    Have to do a reset to get computer back to useable condition

    This should go without saying, but as a PSA: You should probably not be PKing newly-created Wildwalkers that have been forced into PK mode as it is unintentional, and thus is a bannable offense.

    It's sad I have to actually post that here.

    Huh, you're right. I just got the same error. May I ask what graphics card you're using?
    EDIT: Looking through my log files, it might be an issue with a building in that area that's causing us to crash. I'll add this onto the bug list and forward info to staff. If you're stuck crashing constantly, I'd recommend sending a ticket to try and get your char relocated.
