    Our moon got almost that big once, when it decided to get real close to the planet.
    There once a time when I cared about getting to the top quickly as possible to help others. Now, I take it slow, and don't worry about having nothing to do. There's always something to do in an MMORPG, especially if you are high level. PK'ing is for those who desire to inflate their egos. True friendship comes from helping one-another, rather than to start rivalries.

    It takes 315300 Mysterious Chips to make one warsoul weapon, if you have a 100% success rate.

    The moon was created from a ring of debris from a planetary collision when the planet was still molten. The moon formed over the course of 1 year from that ring and was very close to the planet. Gravitational drag causes the moon's orbit to speed up and spiral away from the Earth at a rate of about an inch and a half per year.

    wait, that means we have two moons in PWI? b:shocked

    As a matter of fact, the planet Earth, on which you reside, has more than one satallite (moon). The definition being 'one of orbit' in the same way Earth is to the Sun. Only one of these is known as The Moon, or Lunar.

    1. Luna (Primary natural satallite, "the Moon")
    2. 3753 Cruithne (Orbit: 19.8°)
    3. 2002 AA29 (5.9 million km distance orbit once every 95 years.)

    And these are but a few of the possibilities. Admitted, Cruithne is more asteroid than it is moon, but an asteroid is as much a moon as the Moon is, at least by definition.

    As far as I am able to take count, Pangu (Perfect World) has three moons.
    I have enclosed screenshots below. However. I believe one of these might well have to be a Planet in its own right, purely due to the size.

    It can only be seen under very specific circumstances, and Tideborn area fits those specific circumstances? Like how you can only see a rainbow when you're standing at the perfect angle and the sun is at the perfect angle and the rain is at a perfect angle too.

    And why? Because.....that planet is surrounded by a mist that can only be viewed through Tideborn area, I dunno.

    Am I the only one going, "An old man's face? Where?"

    I'm guessing this is a case of pareidolia, much as seeing the "face in the moon" (or the "rabbit in the moon" if you're Japanese) is for the Earth's moon.

    But you can see that thing and the moon at the same time. o_o

    Go to Tide area, fly from there to Archo (or at any place you like), and you still see it.
