    Patch Notes Version 390
    Released August 5, 2010



    Wedding Banquet
    Players who share their love for one another will be able to have the special ceremony they've always wanted. The Marriage Banquet is your own private party in which you can invite all your friends and family to attend. Every new couple who gets married will each receive a free Banquet Reservation upon completion of the Matrimony quest. Reserve your Banquet from the Wedding Usher in the Chapel Foyer.

    Couples who are already married can each purchase a Banquet Reservation from the Boutique, squad up, and reserve a Banquet date.

    Some things to note:
    1. Players must be married (to each other) for the Banquet Reservation to work.
    2. If the registration times are all filled up, just wait until the next available week appears.
    3. Players must be in a squad with their significant other.
    4. There is a contribution quest during the Banquet ceremony. A Jealous Ex will arrive and try to stop you from having your ceremony. Make sure you are equipped to fight him and his friends off!

    Note: There is currently an issue with the contribution points during the Jealous EX attack event being calculated correctly. This will be fixed in a coming update.

    Event Boutique
    A new Boutique has been introduced called the Event Boutique. When players participate in certain events, they will be able to win Event Points to purchase items from this new Boutique.

    Jungle Ruins
    The new Jungle Ruins is now open! Every Tuesday at 20:30 server time, players will be able to enter the Jungle Ruins and compete with other players to reach the grand prize at the end! It wont be so easy though as the Ruins are filled with monsters and traps. I know ye' can fight, but its our wit that makes us men.

    Celestial Tiger Event
    Every Monday @ 21:00 server time, the Celestial Tigers will begin their attack. A Keeper of the Tigers NPC will appear near the Elder of each major city as well as Archosaur. Speak to him to begin the event. This event is a Contribution Public Quest.

    The Celestial Tiger Event now replaces the Nein Beast event.

    New Territory War Rules
    1. The bidding process will no longer be announced; all bids will now be secret bids, and faction leaders will only be able to make a single bid each. The highest secret bid wins that faction the opportunity to attack the territory at the scheduled time.

    2. Bids will no longer be refunded. If your bid was not high enough to win, the coins involved will be lost. This should minimize the occurrence of dishonest or fake bids.

    3. The TW victor no longer receives any part of the winning bid. This should also minimize the occurrence of dishonest or fake bids.

    4. Rewards for holding territories will no longer be coin-based. Instead, the rewards will be a combination of Mirage Celestones and the chance of being sent the Medal of Glory, an item necessary for attaining Rank IX gear.

    This Rank IX gear is still in development, and should be available in the near future. One Medal of Glory will be sent to one of the 47 territories at random each week.

    Rewards are as follows:

    a. Tier 1 Territory: 300 Mirage Celestones + Chance of being sent Medal of Glory
    b. Tier 2 Territory: 200 Mirage Celestones + Chance of being sent Medal of Glory
    c. Tier 3 Territory: 150 Mirage Celestones + Chance of being sent Medal of Glory

    With these new changes, we believe Territory Wars will become a more fun and competitive activity, with less opportunity for exploitation, and the chance to get some of the most powerful items in the game!

    PWI Bidding Hall
    A new feature the PWI Bidding Hall is now live. Players will be able to bid Gold for special rare items. In the Boutique there is a new "Hammer" Icon which will bring up the Bidding Hall. The item appears in the Bidding Hall at 17:00 every day, and bidding for the item begins at 20:00. Click the large "?" Button in the Bidding Hall window for more information.

    Possible items to bid on include Pigment Packs that contain 30 of 1 type of colored pigment, or Aerogear tickets for rare flyers. More items will be added to the Bidding Hall in the future.

    Dungeons
    To battle farming, boss behavior in Wraith Gate and Twilight Temple ACT III has been changed. Players will need to kill enough trash mobs or else the bosses will go into a Frenzy mode dealing more damage.

    The Gold Medal from Trophy Mode of Lunar Glade can no longer be traded for Lunar Glade materials.

    All Bosses in Nirvana Place will reset their aggro targets randomly.

    Wraith Attack Announcements
    Yes, they're back in the game! Yes, Hidden Orchid is still broken! Wraith Attacks are activated by various Wraith Officer's Envelops found throughout Perfect World. Enjoy!

    Perfect Encyclopedia
    Added the search function for "Items".

    Interface Changes

    Linkable Items
    Players can now link their items into the chat window. Simply press Shift + Left your item while speaking in chat. Other players who see the chat will now be able to click on the item link and view the item details.

    Changed Font
    Some of the in-game font has been updated for better readability.

    Status Overview
    Information about player frame Rate, current Server, and ping can now be seen when you mouse over the systems icon.

    Hyper EXP Function
    Added a Hyper EXP button to the Character Portrait.

    And yes... lots and lots of localization.

    If I wanted to get married, I'd get married to a guy and pay cheaper than the amount of the packs to just go and get a marriage certificate.

    ... The Marriage quest is a recent addition.

    Most likely in an attempt to try to boost the marriage pack sales because before that it was kinda useless.
    If you disregard what I say because of who I am or because of the contents of what I said, you are a fool.

    Everyone wants to be different, but when you're different you wish you were normal.
