dissapointed in PWI?

Learn to play. PVP in an mmo is about who is better. This is only proven when there is no trash like this. 2 people, head on, both ready. Then you see who is better.

Want to talk about war? I was in the army. I've been in one. You try some of that **** you like so much here, your OWN superiors will have your head.

Funny how people come to play mmos, which are often based on grinding, just to say they don't like to grind. Then I must ask, why are you even here?

I personally believe that just because most MMORPG's have been poorly designed thus far does not mean that all the future ones will be nor that the ones that currently are must remain that way. I love MMORPG's. I have been playing them for 10 years. That said, the single part of MMORPG's that I am the most tired of is the mindless killing of tens of thousands of furry woodland creatures just to gain experience.

Considering that we are called adventurers and not mass murders I do not think it is unreasonable for experience to be given for things other than simply killing. I am strongly attracted to character development in games and particularly like the fact that character development takes a very long time in MMORPGs (characters in single player games like the Elder Scroll series can have every aspect of the character maxed in just a couple of days). The more ways a game has to gain experience the longer it will take people to get bored of the grind and quit. I can safely say that I would have left PWI months ago if not for the crazy stone quest. I reached the point where I was tired of the grind and basically stopped playing. But I still logged in every day for crazy stone because it was so easy to do. A few months later I was a dozen levels higher and got back into the game. Now I do crazy stone and world quest every day no matter how much I am not in the mood to play Perfect World.

The ability to advance my character without having to kill things has kept me here. If there were even more non-violent ways to advance I would have a greater interest in this game. Restricting advancement to just killing creatures has always been a poor idea. I am just waiting for developers to finally realize that and do something about it. These games will always be centered around combat and that is fine. But all MMORPG's should spend significant time developing non-combat ways to gain experience. Everyone gets tired of the grind at times and there should be things to do in game that keep them away from the grind while still advancing their character.

anyone ever played baldur's gate? the main storyline has long, hard quests that often takes a party and require killing of insane enemy parties or bosses to complete. that was interesting. i think wraiths ploy was such an attempt, would be nice if there were more of these quests.

and fighting npc parties was what made the game so interesting. there were so many strategies involved, and it made every class useful in the game. it'd be a long shot to implement this, but it'd be really fun. that game was like rpg at its finest i think, at least for its time (not an mmo, but you could play multiplayer)

OK first you have not been playing since OB otherwise you wouldn't be QQing about the lag and the bugs. These things were a million times worse. Do you remember when Archers were the most broken thing in any game ever and you could almost oneshot anything from 30, I do. If you were an original then you would know that us few that are still around do enjoy the massive changes that have happened and the BALANCE that has come between each class. Veno's are nowhere near broken. Go back to the OB if you're from that era 4 years ago and hop on oracle since you obviously can't handle urself. QQ to the MY people and let them know that you don't like there changes then quit like the other losers who can't stick it out because of a few bugs. People like you make us look bad and we all can't stand your QQing anymore so either suck it up or just LEAVE already.

^ this part is misleading.
herc's pdef =22k, and mdef=17k when you factor in tank buffs at 90
people dont know what hercs skills do alot of the time, and are completely unaware of factoring this in. herc has way higher hp, def, and mdef making him ultimate -defensive- pet while phoenix has more patk, accuracy, and atk speed making him ultimate -offensive- pet

BASE STATS

Btw you mislead by saying hercs skills,any pet can have them.

They shoud rename '' International '' version to '' Us '' version, or they don't get it that Eu & Us time zone aren't the same and everyone outside Us time zone got problems to join Tw's, Dragon Temple.....

First to beat a dead horse- veno are awesome class cheap to play, easy to make money CS pet that is outstanding ( yeah im jealous) but what kills me is fleash ream - the ONLY skill there is that isnt nerfed damage in PVP. I just dont get it. Why dont GM's fix it. Why dont GM's even respond to the questions asked about it ? ( some people might say genies are the answer and I say BS. make the archer, Bm, and barbs bleed unnerfed damage too and then ill except genies as an answer.

Have you ever seen a veno without flesh ream win pvp against someone even 5 levels lower than them unless that person happens to be afk? It's one of the only pvp abilities open to them, and is solved rather nicely by genie skills, so QQ more.

The easy to make money part is quickly negated by a CS pet that costs between 15m-25m coins each for the materials (80k for 10-50 sof/feather, 9,999 sof/feather needed for 1 pet). For those that can't count, that's roughly $200 real money per pet. ANY level 80+ character with an extra 20m coin to throw around would also be rather strong comparatively. The grass is always greener, and so on. Yep, venos may still be the least costly of classes, but unless they're getting weekly TW money (doesn't happen until after they have herc/phoenix), or are grinding out TT mats (again, not until after they have herc), they'll still only make about 14m coin in total, from 1 to 75 unless they're exceptionally lucky with FB drops. Even with pets, Veno has to keep buying/making decent equipment. Pets need skill books to increase skills (atleast 1m for skillbooks), veno needs to spend about 1m of their lifetime money on their own skills before 75, 300k for cage (in addition to farming for other pet bag expansions), 600k for safe expansions, 600k for inventory expansions. Leaves about 8m remaining by level 75, even if they spent their time grinding for exp instead of using crazy stone, selling every mirage they get, converting every celestone to mirage, and spend roughly an hour a day farming mats. So, do you really think it's worth it to have a pet that can sometimes kill others if they don't happen to have a level 10+ genie? Sure, a Veno may have the lowest costs up front, but they still have rather high lifetime costs just getting themselves to where they can even compete in something like PvP.

Make a veno, learn what's involved with even getting to that point. THEN complain that it's unfair. Being able to solve for bleed damage with a genie is more than a fair fix.

i only have 1 thing that really bugs me and probably will be the reason for me to stop playing this game soon ... i playd bout half year and gotten to a serten lvl .. now others my lvl alll join 2 clans those 2 clans rule the terretory .... why do alllll join these clans ... well simple freeee coins
terretory war is the main thing most people are going to quit on , i mean i want a good war i dont wanna be in the top guilds why?? whats there fun?? its tooooooooo easyyyy nice and nooobie getting free coins always having to do **** for it... while others who buy zhen even ... cant compete in noooo way never because those 2 clans filled with peeps of greed for coins are sooo uber rich u need spend 100s of thousends of dollars if u ever want a chanse ... there for this game is ruiend .. zhen buyers have no atvantage what so ever ... because ey these 2 clans get over 2500$ free A WEEK if u would buy zhen and sold as coins i mean .... how can this be fun?? for me it would feel like playing a game with cheatcodes like infint money nice easy right .... only way to safe this game is to end alll TW fee or profit made of land .... if u wanna keep the zhen buyers atleast and reset on land dont help **** because the clans still there they take over all in a month again they already got there uber gear we can never compete with ... or am i wrong here? this is pointless to try to become the best ... or buying zhen feels even more pointless .... i hope gm's take this serious because this is a game destroyer

/agree with Zorish

I'm bored to death with the game. What ticks me off the most of all though is the comuntiy being so.. reclusive and selfcentered.

I don't even bother trying to get parties for TT or events because its always just a big fight over loot,personality clashes and general rude behaviour. It's really sad to see a good game being let down by the ppl that play it.

venos not getting in on rebirth? nonesense! ask tear how he does it, tho i seem to remember that it involves having the golden meatball

i actually grind more than anything. on my archer i refused to zhen because i wanted to make sure i have the money to buy equipment when i get to each milestone in levels

on my veno i stubbornly wanted to keep my lvl 5 turtle so i've been grinding water mobs a whole lot

what keeps me going is really the friends i have. it's just fun to talk to them and do stuff with them, be it fb runs, boss fights, whatever. also, i watch episodes of shows online while the game is windowed when faction chat is really quiet.

i do hope they will make more endgame content as the weeks go by tho, but whether they implement it rarely or often doesnt matter much to me, just not buggy and it'd be all good

I'm upset about the end game content too. There is absolutely nothing for people to do on this server besides 3-2 and 3-3 once they stop leveling. Even my-en has more events than pwi.

We are missing:

-The new netherbeast event on wednesdays
-The arena event on saturdays
-The pk event on thursdays
-Jungle ruins
-Any plausible way to farm rep
-Daily attendance quest
-Daily couples quest
-More that I forgot


... all we have is dragon palace.

Right now I am level 91 and the only thing I do is HH. It would be nice if they added all those events because is getting pretty boring.
