This game is not newbie friendly at ALL

This game is very easy at the lvls you mentioned all you have to do is read you quest log right and do the quests.You really don't need a mentor although I partied up with a few and lvl 76 like myself who helped us out a little.It isn't that hard being a TB as other classes have to travel for a couple of their quests Elves are given the greatest one though at lvl 11 or 12.

Auto-tracking isn't made for your character to walk, it it meant to let your character fly there automatically (WQ?)

Easier from the start? Got trouble questing?
Here some useful sites you should look into a bit:

About getting help form other players, make some friends by helping them quest or something and you can call them later when you need something, but being as rude as you are i doubt you will get a lot of friends

Lmao first link got censored, had to change it so it doesnt anymore, igonore the dot ^^

....I actually think this game isn't all that difficult. This is my first and so far, only MMO I've ever played. You have a lot of quests and I also don't think getting help is THAT hard, then again, that might be due to the fact that people generally like clerics.

You get a lot of quests and the forum here contains maaaaany guides on basically whatever you need to know and some more. There will always be some guild that accepts all levels and I'm pretty sure once you get a guild they will help you out with a lot of things, like your fbs and a lot of people also helps out with cultibosses and such.

Also, camp outside the fb for an hour, you're not the ONLY one who need it and I'm pretty sure a highlevel person won't mind doing two people. An fb isn't impossible if you make a group of level 20s as well, given you got the basic things like a cleric a tank etc etc. We did my friends fb that way and it was the funnest fb I've ever done.

Keep up with your attitude you'll keep getting no help.

If youre having trouble with getting help the best thing to do is make some friends either the same level as you or slightly higher. (people too high above you start to think youre annoying (unless theyre in the same guild)) Unfortunately, you seem to be having trouble with the making friends part. Try being nicerb:scorn

This post is not for you players out there. I'm sure you try to help lots. (not). But, really, could a game be any more confusing for noobs? The 1-20 quests are fine for people who are used to playng mmorgs but, seriously. The auto tracking is WHACK!

Yes, call me a newb, Noob, N00B, I care not, because I AM just that. I've played this game for 2 days and got to level 20 on the second day. (thank you guides) That's all fine and good. During that time, I have only met ONE, i repeat ONE helpeful person. No one seems to be friendly, there doesn't seem to be a mentor system. What's a noob to do? I simply got bored and left the game.

This game needs to be easier from the start. Seriously, auto tracking is WHACK! And, what's with these stupid smileys? Seriously?

This game is not newby friendly at all. Why does that matter, you ask? Because, I won't spend my real life money on it.

Character name: IronRose
Level: 19
Class: Noob
Race: Tideborn

As much as I can only agree to a small extent of your post, I have to disagree with much other.

Yes, Many People Are Unfriendly, they will only stay within their own circle of friends and help nobody but only their friends/faction mates. I mean, why would anyone spend hours helping you out if they don't know you well at all? Though, there are still some friendly ones out there.

I agree with one of the foremost post saying they find new players annoying. In fact, sometimes I find it rude for people to just send me a squad invitation without asking because I was nearby picking up some herbs/ores. If you really need help, try *Asking* them first, by whispering them, I'm sure if they're free, they will help you, but if they don't, don't make a fuss and make yourself angry about it.

Also, join a faction. Faction is also known as guilds or clans in other MMORPGS/MMO. And many officers of factions recruit people though world chat or Yellow text . People will always try and help their faction mates.

But you have to of course, have the right tone of speech and attitude. Nobody owes you no nothing. You have to be polite, sound polite, act polite and always use "Please" when you need help. Don't sound demanding.

Sometimes, people can't practically stay alongside you and help you with Anything And Everything. You have to be Independent in some way. You can try asking a cleric to buff you. Their buffs can save you practically lots of pots (if you meditate) and so, deaths. Also, if you bump into a quest that demands too much of you, yet the quest isn't rewarding enough, Skip It! Come back next time at a higher level to finish it, unless there are people doing the same quests around, you can try, of course, asking them first, before inviting them to your squad. b:victory

Have fun b:bye

I agree with her totally. There are way too many players who think that their s*** doesn't stink. They are constantly talking about FAIL this and FAIL that instead of helping each other and teaching the newbs how to play.

But then most of the 'high level' players have forgotten that they were once newbs too.


As for joining a faction, that works... oh wait... we recruit level 70+ 80+ 95+ etc., etc.

Personally I played for a few days. I also quit playing. Not because I couldn't get any help. Not because of my attitude. Not because the game was boring. No...

I stopped because I was sick and tired of people chatting on world chat talking about sucking co***, licking pu***, and fu****g. I got tired of these 'high level' players constantly abusing the world chat talking the sex ****. As I see that PWI doesn't give a damn about how they speak in game or how characters are named or even guild names, I can tell that this game isn't worth playing.

In every other game I have ever played, the GM staff BANNED players for making offensive or sexual based names, guild names, or even talking **** is chat.

I read the rules of the game.

If you impersonate a GM, according to the rules, you get BANNED.
If you have an offensive character name, according to the rules, you get BANNED.
If you created an offensive faction name, according to the rules, you get BANNED.

But yet, these things happen on a daily basis and PWI support doesn't do anything.

This game is not newb friendly nor is it family oriented.


75% of the players in the game are perverts with no lives.
They enjoy talking the **** talk in world chat and they know that PWI doesn't care.
They would rather insult another player then to help them learn the game.

I did not forget I was low level once too. I often help people that need it, as FBs, Bosses, quests and more stuff.

And about the WC sex stuff. On Sanc there is thrash talk on WC, but I have never seen people talking about these things, just mostly funny/pointless stuff, purely to break the boredom and give people a laughter.

Well,I've have friends on different servers and I don't hear any of the dirty talking on WC/names.
Even if they were,GMs can't be around 24/7 to ban everyone who does it.

I'm pretty sure there are also factions that invite all levels.

Try ether saga.. the auto pathing there actually carries you around obstacles which you seem to be to lazy to click around. Oh, and everyone gets to be a venomancer too! Want to be a tank with a pet? You got it!

I never had an issue with an auto path at all. In fact, I've played games where there was NO auto path. I personally think you should be greatful that once you get to level 30 and have a flyer, you can autopath in the air over top of all those obstacles and not worry about it.

Well, I don't know exactly what you're talking about people not being friendly because I remember nearly dying trying to kill something and a lvl 62 person happened to be passing by on their mount, stopped, and asked if I needed help then helped me kill the person. I didn't even have to ask or anything. They offered. And I know for a fact I try to help people when they ask me to as long as it's within reason (like being lvl 30 I cant go help kill a 54 lvl boss ... I tried and died lol, learned about that)

Though, I will agree that the auto tracking or going to the coordinates is very ... bad for people walking. Because it runs you into walls and such, but you can run around the wall then auto track again, I believe it's meant more for those who are flying or in open areas.

But as for friendly - Totally disagree, everyone I have talked to has been very helpful and even the people who don't know the answer or can't help politely tell me so. You do have to be nice though, you can't call them names and btch about things to them and then expect them to help you. Nobody wants to help someone who is dragging their gaming experience down and making it miserable.

*EDIT: Sorry, didn't read the post about you not being rude and posting while aggravated, which I totally understand, I think you're just running into the wrong people because I haven't really had a hard time finding people that are willing to help. There are even factions dedicated to leveling up to help lower levels (ran into them today an hour ago).

As for being a newbie -- if you aren't a computer person or haven't gamed before, then yeah, it can be confusing. I still get lost from time to time (I just ask people either in game or here and they're pretty quick to reply) but you figure it out as you go. They did pretty good not springing EVERYTHING on you at once. Sure there is a handful but the game would be boring if you only started out with one or two options.

Take to mind that this game isn't for bringing people into the gaming world, it wasn't designed for that, it was made for people who like to game and those are typically people who have a general idea of how MMOs work.

Let me start by saying that I posted at that time in a highly agitated state. Trust me, I haven't been rude to anyone in the game. I haven't had a chance to do that. I think that part of my frustration is that I started on this island with other noobs such as myself. It's not they wouldn't help, I think it's that they couldn't. The controls are very hard to learn.

I think alot of people have misunderstood my post. I'm not attacking anyone, here. And for those of you who find me rude, I probably am rude to yor sensitive senses. To others.. I am simply frustrated. I still don't speak well without jumping around like an idiot in the game. I have used the autotracking to get to far off cities that I could have instantly teleported to... I'm not lazy, as people claim. I'm simply a NOOB! I have no idea what will heppen to me when I die. I don't know what my genie actually DOES!

Well, good for you for understanding your mistake and apologizing (maybe you others need to say you're sorry too?) b:victory I think that while not being fully "family friendly" there are many people here on the forums and in the game, willing to help you.

Welcome to PWI, I for one hope you have a great time playing b:cute

Get yourself into the habit of pressing enter BEFORE you type. Pressing enter will activate the chat box. As for turning off WC, there's no way to just turn it off and remove it from normal chat, but there are workarounds. I'm not in game at the moment so my directions are just from memory, but above the chat box (that you type in) are a bunch of buttons (normal, squad, whisper, faction, etc). If you select any of the ones besides normal, it'll filter out wc. You can customize your chat channels by pressing U and going to the game tab, if I remember correctly.

You can't block world chat that was the same when we had horned chat which was shut off on the server.You get WC regardless of where you are.
