HELP plz

ahh how icky.... the same name for 2 different requirements threw me off >.> tyvm for the help!

i am having problems giting on the game when i click start i have othere boxes come up in weriod languages whats wong ?

I've noticed that a few people, myself included, are experiencing little glitches in the game that never were problematic until after this latest patch (40).

http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=121901

Summed up, my game's motion is choppy (not lagging) and never did before the patch, someone else can't modify certain features when creating a character, and someone else's game completely crashes.

As a test, I mailed the gloves to my wizzy who was wearing a simular setup though wearing a black tang suit rather than the chain one and, they show up just fine on him, with or without the shirt.

I'm not sure if that means its just a untamed wolf barb thing, or an issue with the chain jacket alone or what but...just wanted to give it a try to see what difference a different race/shirt would make....

Crafting... where do I start?

-Ammo is under Craftsman instead of Blacksmith
-Ammo doesn't increase crafting skill
-Ammo costs multiple times as much in materials as just buying it from Blacksmith
-Crafting metals at the blacksmith doesn't increase crafting skill
-I'm assuming the same about fabric at the Tailor
-When manufacturing items from anyone, chances are it is exactly the same as the base item from the store. This is a bug, as I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt in assuming you aren't INTENTIONALLY WASTING OUR TIME AND EFFORT. I used up 32 logs, 16 coal, 16 broken orange jade and the money to buy it on 4 of the exact same weapon the blacksmith sells. That's 4 failed craftings in a row. That is a spectacular failure. It's insulting to your players if you don't fix this.
-Apothecary crafting doesn't provide ability to craft regular potions
-Apothecary crafting produces results 15 levels higher than the character can use
-Apothecary requires more materials than the resulting orbs/powders can be sold for. It is currently a waste of money to craft Wave Orbs and the like as they can be sold for about 1/100th of the cost of the herbs. Seriously, fire whoever "balanced" apothecary.
-Actually, ALL crafting results are not worth the ingredients. The items needed for some recipes are not present in the game it seems, as everyone is looking for them. By the time you find the 4 you need, you craft a dud.

So much work needs to be done on crafting. It seems to be such a huge part of the game with all of the materials needing to be collected, yet you ruin your own work by punishing the player for their hard work.

Whoever is making the decisions on what gets worked on in each update needs a good hard slap across the face, followed by a loud "STOP WORKING ON THE STUPID F****** CLOTHING AND COSMETICS AND FIX THE DAMN BUGS AND PROBLEMS!!". Do you even want people to play your game or do you want them to leave in anger, feeling you wasted their time?

Fix it. Just fix it all.

Its just ammo, it shouldn't increase it. Ammo is so much easier to make than armor or a weapon. Think about it from a real life standpoint.

You can make much better ammo possibly, you pay for the bonus.

Same as ammo. You put little to no effort into making that, so it should not increase it.

See above

I don't see how that is a bug. When you craft something, what you make is completely random. Which means you can make anything from the same stuff the NPC sells, to some crazy good 3 star gear. No where does it state you are guaranteed something good.

So buy them. You make better things than those anyway

I'm pretty sure no one likes this but that's just how it is

That's because you don't make the darn items to sell them, you make them to use them. If you are trying to get rich on crafting then you are playing the wrong game.

If everyone made good stuff all the time, what would be the point in making stuff?

You don't HAVE to craft anything. Its a part of the game they added in. Plus, if everyone had rare stuff then it would not be rare anymore now would it?

Please don't insult the devs or staff like that. They know what they are doing and the system works just fine. I have never programmed before but I have talked to the GMs in an mmo more bug ridden than this one and they told me all about the problems that can come up by trying to fix certain things. I've also seen them first hand in that game. They tried to fix the skill system and instead ended up totally ruining it with a massive bug.

Hey we agree on something.b:laugh

While you sit here and complain then, I will enjoy the things I crafted using the crafting system you hate so much.b:pleased

Your response is both elitist and perfunctory. "Blakiepoo's" comments/concerns are valid. There is very little point in crafting an item, wasting critical (and sometimes rare) components, just to get the same exact item you could buy in the store.

The purpose of adding any "feature" is to increase enjoyment of the game and enhance the experience. The crafting function, as it stands now, does neither.

Crafting ammo should yield experience. You suggest to "compare this to the real world"; in doing so, it proves his point. Even making the most mundane and common of items in the real world still yields experience. You made a flippant comment because you lacked an educated response, or you failed to fully examine the issue.

Lastly, while "Blakiepoo's" comment about working on "fashion/clothing" instead of more serious issues might be subjective, it is a concern shared by many people; not just him. I too share the same concern. While many people seem to enjoy the fashion/clothing aspect of the game, many people would enjoy crafting MORE if it made sense. As stated above, wasting time and resources in a random endeavor, where you might get the same exact item you could buy in a store is not only completely illogical, but wasteful of the player's time, money, and critical resources.

Clearly, it needs to be fix or at least addressed. Failure to fix critical components while simulatenously working on "fluff" aspects, such as fashion, shows a lack of either interest in the player's wants/needs or disingenuous intent.

Again I say, rare stuff would not be rare if everyone made it all the time. My stuff is hardly NPC bought and guess what? I made it! You keep trying to make great weapons or armor , and if you end up with junk, you try again! Each try gives you more craft exp anyway so you can level up the skill. Ive always done it that way and I don't know about you but I like my level 5+ crafting skills.

I found a glitch where there was a Black Iron Mine inside a rock. You can't see the mine, but you can read the words.

Just click on it to zoom in, hopefully.

Check the quest log. There's a quest to get the Celestial Sprite from frozen wolfkin, which is a rare drop, after which the first Sprite will tell you the location of a second Sprite (within a flower) which you need to collect.

There's an untranslated NPC in Archosaur. My patch was a manual patch from a mirror download site.

I'm not sure if this counts as a glitch, coding error, or what, so I'm throwing it out here.

In North Archeosaur (spelling?) located near the teleport master and a bridge, there is an NPC (looks like the swords master found in dungeons such as Rabid Wolf Den) who's name is in Chinese characters. Thinking that his name might be the only glitched part, I talked to him -- and the quests he offered are also written out in Chinese characters.



Sorry if this is posted in the wrong spot! ...Or if it's already been reported by someone else.
