    ....So how was any of this related to the genie expansion? Btw, I was looking at the genie skills, didn't find blood clot anywhere.

    Blood Clot

    Learned at Level: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50
    Description: Thickens your blood, forcing it to clot.
    Function: Removes any bleed status effect from yourself.

    Second skill listed... how hard did you look?

    2nd skill listed in what the GMs posted, I got the translated skills of the genies that were posted on the chinese site, and there is no blood clot mentioned there, nothing that cures bleed. There is something that makes you immune to sleep though, I hope that helps with flesh ream too.

    Chinese version does not equal this version. We get things localized for our version, which means we may get different versions of what they have.

    ....Ummm...I am almost sure that the company that hosts servers doesn't have the right to change gameplay content, which is prob why flesh ream hasn't been fixed, even though that's more bug than gameplay. Changing skills is gameplay content and prob won't be very different. Also, it seems you cast the genie skills, so purifying yourself won't work when you are stunned so I would rather have that immunity skill work (there is 1 that makes you immune to negative effects, but that's what wings of grace say in this version and it's not what happens.)

    The company that hosts the PWI servers IS the company the devs are at. It's true the GMs cannot alter the game code at all, but they do translate the game and other things and give that information to the devs who then add it into our version of the game.

    It's quite easy for the devs to do different things to different versions of the game, actually its quite common.

    Touche.
    Highly unlikely for the devs to change content based on the version though.

    Ah can't wait for this new little toy to come out for Veno, seeing how I have pet bag maxed ill probably have a genie of each element if it allows it. Then with each genie I would build it up to a likeness of the element ie Earth Genie would be a tank, Fire Genie would be melee DPS, Air Genie would be range DPS etc. Soo exciting b:pleased

    geanies can't take damage. might want to change what your earth genie is going to be.

    Either you didn't read carefully or the translations were ****. Chinese version have blood clot skill and so will we.

    People keep being told that genies = a bunch of shared skills. They are more like the fb89 fairies than actual pets. They simply signify that you have certain skills

    Yes, and in three weeks patch, Venos will be able to use 4 pets at a time, creating a full party so that you can tank, DD, heal, and AOE all at the same time. So start your veno now, because they're already OP and will become even more.

    Ok... where do I begin.

    1. Everybody will have the ability to summon a genie, so it is an equal increase in power for all classes. It in no way enhances the strength of any one class. I suppose this is only the first introduction to the intellect you are capable of showing, or rather, incapable of showing.

    2. No faceless accounts with under 10 posts will ever be given merit to any QQ comments or threads. Go fail somewhere else, but not in here.

    3. Other classes can solo grind without the need for a pet; veno cannot do anything without the pet. Its like being squad dependent -always.

    4. You present no valid arguments as to why venos are OP, and hide behind an anonymous account. You have effectively stated nothing, or at least nothing worthy of consideration or existence.

    5. You post was completely off-topic. And where is the logic in thinking that citing an impossible and incorrect upcoming patch somehow strengthens your "argument?"

    6. Have you ever played a veno? I have both the herc and the 'nix, and I am not a god of a player. If you are getting your **** kicked constantly by venos, then it is you who sucks and not the veno that is OP. Your failure as a gamer is your own and it is not the GM's responsibility to cater your to your inabilities.

    I think that just about covers it all... Did I miss anything?

    Actually, in the new upcoming expansion, players do not have to purchase Genie's. All players can attain them through the completion of an in-game quest.
    is there a specific level for you to get this quest though? Cause i dont want to level all the way to 70 or something. But as for it being free i say hurrah to that. A guy like me cant even afford fashion.. b:bye

    The fact that they have skills to be learned starting at lvl 5, I would imagine they are available to players who are at least lvl 5.

    I agree with you; the last expansion was only beneficial to a minority of players who were higher-than-average level. I hope that this expansion will be available to a greater amount of players, including the semi-casual players that are not exactly a "high" level.

    Honestly, for me that's another reason not to make a veno. The easier the race becomes the more unatractive is for me.b:bye
