    Gosh I know how you feel b:chuckle Same thing when I first started playing PWI last summer.

    PWI = Perfect World International

    PWI is a game made by PWE (Perfect World Entertainment) and the main company is in China but they have produced many games since 2008.

    You download PWI from http://www.pwi.perfectworld.com/download and it should take you about 30 minutes - 7 hours depending on your computer/laptop.

    There are 8 classes, and here you go!

    Winged Elves

    -Clerics: The main healers of the game. If you play cleric, you will be the one in charge of healing and keeping people alive in the game. Magic based characters.

    -Archers: They're one of the DDs (Damage Dealers) of the game. They hit like crazy with either arrows or bolts and yeah!

    Humans

    -Wizards: Obviously being magic based, they're all about the elements. They have several attacks and additionally have a heal or two too but they cannot replace clerics. I recommend wizard for new players personally, but yeah. Magic based characters.

    -Blade Masters: They are really DDs (Damage Dealers) but they're more complex but very unique. They have stuns (makes things stop moving), and several attacks. Sometimes they tank (take all the damage of a boss (an elite monster) or a mob (short name for monsters/things you kill) but otherwise, they're really nice.

    Untamed

    -Venomancers: If you see someone running around with ears and tails, they are venomancers! Better known as venos however, they are the only class in PWI that can tame pets and use them against other people. Magic based, the pets are everything. Its by far the easiest class, but can also be very costly if you want to buy a herc or nix (the two best pets in-game).

    -Barbarians: They are the official tanks (they take all the damage from a boss/mob) in-game. They can look very cuddly as a panda to scary as a wolf or tiger. I don't personally recommend to make a barbarian as your first character but if you do, pay attention to how more higher level barbarians play the game.

    Tide Born

    -Psychics: They're very similar to wizards but they're technically a fish... Neat thing about them is that they have the fastest magic attacks in-game (at least that I'm aware of) but I do warn you they, just like wizards, are very squishy (weak, low HP [hit points], etc.)

    -Assassins: I have to warn you, the best assassins are the ones who have the quickest mind. They are also DDs (Damage Dealers) but yeah. Personally I would not recommend this class until you learn the game more. To be a successful assassin means to have a quick mind and be fairly intelligent to pull together a string of attacks. They're the only class that can go invisible.


    To play this game, you need a keyboard obviously and a mouse. This game is played with the WASD keys because the arrow keys are more for elevation of going higher or lower in air/water.

    Hope this helped! b:cute

    Lol yes of course you can get married in-game! However for marriage, this is required:

    -1 guy and 1 girl character (there cannot be same sex marriages due to strict laws in China and the main company is in China so no way they will change it. Not now, not ever)

    -Each person must have a wedding pack. Groom and Bride packs are required for each person. A pack is normally 30 gold ($30) but there are occasionally sales for 15-20 gold so yeah

    -Level 20+ for each person. Lower than level 20 cannot be married

    Once you do get married, you have the "Wife/Husband of ____" over your name and everything. Plus, there are these Marriage Quests that you can do later on!


    The most current event right now is the Nien Beast Event for level 50+ characters.

    Other stuff in the game includes quests, swimming, flying, etc. b:chuckle

    And hahaha no problem b:pleased Glad to help you out!

    Oh! I almost forgot to list the servers! Here you go!

    PvE Servers (Person vs. Environment)
    Archosaur
    Dreamweaver
    Heavens Tear
    Raging Tide
    Sanctuary

    PvP Servers (Person vs. Person)
    Harshlands
    Lost City


    Since I'm guessing you're either

    A.) New to PWI, but played other games
    B.) New to PWI and any other game completely


    I'd recommend you to join a PvE server. Because in PvP when you hit level 30, your name goes automatically white name which means anybody can kill you anytime. Its better known as PK, or People Killing.

    Hope this helps! b:cute

    Just so I can say it, Raging Tide FTW! b:victory
    (FTW = For The Win)

    I wouldn't suggest wizard as first character to try, they can be very....tricky if you haven't played before. Blademaster is a good beginner character to get the feel of the game.
