Now having seen the first real previews and a taste of what's coming, I'll keep this short and simple. I'd like to begin discussion of the said so features in the new expansion. I'll begin with some of the observations and concerns I've noticed while looking through the new website.



Rising Tide Expansion Features:

New race - "Tideborn"/Two new classes - "Assassin" and "Psychic"
*First and foremost, I've bashed this game on and off because of how old the graphics looked....after seeing what's to come, I'm highly anticipating a fresh new scope for PWI. The new character design is pretty unique and the Tideborn actually look a little more next-gen in comparison to the other races. Will PWI be receiving a facelift as far as graphics go? (Or maybe I'm blind, I swear they look different to me quality wise.)

*Shadow Shroud/Bloodbath
*Soul Force/Chain of Souls


More than 200 new quests
*Even though this expansion is all about the rise of the Tideborn, will these quests be implemented in the new area of the map specifically?


New top-tier gear and equipment
*The screen shots and artwork for the new weapons look pretty bad-A. But one has to wonder where and how these new weapons will be acquired. HH and molds were the basic for most end game equipments; Frost and Lunar were miles away from reach before packs came out. Will this "top-tier" gear and equipment be attainable by the average player?


Additional territories added for Territory Wars
*Uhh...this will be fun......? b:surrender


New "Recasting" Equipment System
*NO IDEA what they are implying...discuss please!


Public Quest System
*The very vague explanation of this new quest system reminds me of a more organized version of a wraith event. Sounds interesting though.


Daily Quests for Married Players
*This will be an up for anyone who is already married. Will we expect people to marry more often with this feature? (Pfft, duh!)


Hair/Hat Fashion Slot
*I can understand the demand for an accessory to the expansion, I say yay for hats. But hair? Different hairstyles are already implemented during the customization process...so does this mean we will be able select from different hairstyles as we please just like our clothes? If so, will this require a cash-shop item?


Account Stash System
*I think this is self-explanatory and EVERYONE is probably STOKED.



Okay, shutting up now! Feel free to bring up any other questions or observations. Please keep it civil! GO GO GO GO GO!

    advice to fledgling archers:
    Going sage is like drunken sex, at first she may look good, but when you wake up the next morning; you'll look at her and go WHAT HAVE I DONE.

    I'm not trying to troll or spam, I actually want to begin an organized thread. I know people are just as curious as I am and I'm sure have just as many questions.

    The recasting system is probably the weapon upgrading feature that is mentioned in the other expansion thread.

    Im just wondering, judging from the looks of the assasins and the psychics if we might have to use a preset option when creating them. They look like they have preset style faces and hair, like you would see in other games. Idk, I wonder what everone else thinks?

    I hope we will be able to customize the Tideborns instead of using presets like Barbs. We see in some artworks that they have regular colored skin and hair. Maybe they will be customizable but not as much as other classes with restrictions on hair colors and certain skin tones.

    And now faith, hope, and charity remain; but the greatest of these is charity.

    Recasting, presumably, will be activating the refine-transfer system.

    Judging from the pics of the tideborn, I'm going to guess they'll be as customizable as the other races, though they may lack skin colour changes

    My 2 cents

    What a weird name then for such a procedure. But wouldn't that imply less cash-shoping for orbs aka less spending? You would simply need to just refine one weapon, and keep passing the refine. Maybe they will only allow this once or they'll put an item in the CS to do this. Mehh.

    This would also seem reasonable since they would want to keep the Tideborn looking fishy...right?(lol); a Tideborn with pale white/tan/midnight black skin just wouldn't seem right.

    Cash-Shop, Yes, If you played JD or ESO they have similar clothing and hairstyle "Kirin" i believe like you see on the Tideborn.

    I'm not telling you to only post in the Q&A thread, but there are multiple new class related threads that have been active for weeks, I think this would be better suited there.
