im dissapointed the seeker is a dual sword class. i was hoping 1 sword and a shield or something. it really seems like seeker will be the sword BMs older brother.

im still sticking with my guess that the seeker will use a magic sword and then a melee blade (2 blade class) that can cast as well as deal melee damage; being able to switch between the two....and if i am right... i am so effing excited b:dirty

um... did you guys read the front page?

The Seeker, possessing incredible strength, expertly wields a massive two-handed claymore. His weapon can be infused with various arcane powers, which, in combination with heavy armor, makes him a fearsome force on any battlefield. Seekers can be male or female.

I have to say I'm a little disappointed on the look of the new class. I would have liked them to look less human and more rock monster like.

ok just seen that. still doesnt explain why he wields 2 of them tho in just about all the artwork we see of him. in one artwork he is weilding 2 of them which displays him as having MASSIVE strenth if he can wield 2 handed claymores and another has him wearing one on his back and the other in his hands. his skills even suggest that he has different "sword styles". so id just like an explanation of why he has TWO two- handed claymores.

keep in mind that the Concept Artwork is just that. Artwork. It is not entirely accurate. For example, on one of the loading screens [or somewhere else, i don't remember], you clearly see a Veno holding, not a magic weapon, but Daggers.

I lold.... HARD they can infuse their swords with magical enchantements... they mean Gems, like everyone else right? LMFAO Seekers are overarted. Mystic for the win

Are the bases going to be cash shop items or just something that needs a lot of coins to get?

Ohhh the seeker cosplay is so beautiful! b:pleased Here is some artwork of the new classes I guess.

She looks like an elf but has no wings in her hair and has the same tiara that Eartguards have. All females are shown except for TBs: http://world2.wanmei.com/resources/jpg/100819/10031282203908612.jpg

Her tiara close up: http://world2.wanmei.com/resources/jpg/100819/10031282203626123.jpg

And yes, they will have elf-like wings: http://world2.wanmei.com/resources/jpg/100826/10031282809540291.jpg

Possibly a seeker: http://world2.wanmei.com/resources/jpg/100819/10031282202621068.jpg

All this stuff is non-related to this expansion.
Look at the "wanna be" seeker, it doesn't have a third eye, while all seekers on artworks do have

look at the domain of those pictures. "world2" it's the domain of the Pay to play version of PW-CN

and ty vm for the interpretation MoonUsagi

My guess on the raw translate of mystic skills :

LV 10 fallen flowers : Wood element magic, m.atk + 200% weapon m.atk + 4268 + paralyze target for 5 seconds. These skill seem not just 1 target but a line aoe and i wonder about paralyze, since usually it mean stop moving or very slow. But if stop then these is really good b:shocked 5 second.

LV 10 Enchantment Mantra : Charm a wraith to join your side for 300 seconds, 100% chance. Not working on boss and elite wraith. Need 1 spark. (I don't really get what happen after 300 seconds, is the wraith will lost control or just disappear)

LV 10 Body Care Heart Charm : Buff team within 10 meter of the caster, Defense LV 10 + Attack LV 5 for 30 minute.

LV 10 Charm Beings : Seem aoe (12 meter) skills, cause enemy inside the aoe range to stay where theystand for 10 seconds + lower enemy def lv by 20 for 10 seconds, need 2 spark.

Still no clue on healing skills . . b:surrender but the team buff already going to make it nice to find Mystic inside a squad ?

another thing that bothers me is the wings. like realy? it was bad enought on the tideborn but u have to put them on the earthguard to? come on be more creative... have the ride the wind currents or have them control sand/chunks of earth and fly on that or something. thats just plain lazyness and will cause mass confusion now that 3 races have wings.

Yeah, Earthguards having wings would disappoint me as well. There are so many other possibilities. Like someone else here said (similar to what I suggested earlier), why not let pieces of earth / flowers / glitter float around them? The new race needs some unique attributes, or it will just remain "human copy with a thingie on the head" forever.
But we shoudn't come to a conclusion too fast since I don't trust the artwork. It looks beautiful and all, and there will be similarities for sure. But it's never 100% authentic.

the last ones a bm.. and the girl has elf wings on her head.. just saying b:surrender

Actually, I don't think those feathery things on her head are elf wings but some hair decorations. Like the flower on the Eastern hairdress. Elf wings would "melt" into the hair since they are.. well.. stuck onthe head xD

BTW, I love how everyone is debating, discussing and guessing
Looking forward to something new is even better than getting it in the end

That's what I mean when I fear for elves losing their uniqueness regarding aerogear:



Those are definitely tideborn wings (elves get a pair of pink-ish phoenix wings), but could be as well elf wings at first glance.
Tideborn-like fin wings were small and rudimentary in the beginning, but obviously PW is making them more and more big and "standard wing" shaped.

So what if Earthguards also get wings? PW will just get close to the typical wing design anyway sooner or later..

That's a female elf buddy

And why should they make new-style artwork especially for a BM and a Cleric? Would be a funny coincidence.

And then we'll end up with winged barbs and venos...b:shocked

And don't even think about submitting this frankie...lol :P

@KrittyCat:
I would have loved that before I quit playing Veno and made a Cleric b:laugh
Always disliked the flying mounts for Untamed. Only ones to catch my eye are Boreas Skylight and Flametalon.

oooOOOO...

Saw the "new race" news...

So...
the Seeker is a Ret Paladin (melee-er with magic dmg)
and
the Mystic is a Elemental Shaman (nature spells and summon)

Wonder which one will be more fun to play with... (I played ret paladin before, but not elemental shaman... maybe I'll try out that class when the expansion comes out, LOL... wonder if the summons can solo the bosses in TT...)

i dont care about there skills b:angry i just want them to be out when are they gonna release it for god sake

Possibly December, think about it, china owns the company,seeker an mystic coming December for them an they come out for us here same time, china released tideborn same time ours was released in December of last year, if if i remember correctly, they released tideborn info 3 months before the actual due date to get the hype up an make people excited, its so funny everybody so excited over theses classes that there trying translate pwi-cn just get info

On another not i see people asking how they hope seekers used magic swords, well you guys must not read the info clearly an will be disappointed seekers use a giant claymore an as of mystics some sort of staff. if if i want to bet both of the earth guards will have there own weapons like tideborn, aka only daggers used by assassin, aka only claymore used by seekers. An if i must put in my other opinion, i bet they have there own weapon token quest to another opinion i believe i herd somebody say seekers have 1.9aps starting off, for 1 thing, i can highly bet it be like .6 or .8 starting off reason being, Do you know what a claymore is? its a long heavy *** sword, there for it slower to swing, but will hit hard when hit

As for where i think there going to be, i say bottom left of map little under land of buried bones, a for guild bases, possible across from sanctuary there probably be some islands in the expansion for guild bases. All in all they probably just going suck an not benefit guild in anyway an just cost Gold aka zen for decoration,not like they have torrent to block off unwanted guess or guild bank or guild help boards for the members. All in a nut shell, just relax, save coins,mats armor an just wait,they be here soon,and anybody hyper/oracle them to 100 you fail, you have no idea how to use them, lol

Hope seeker rank 9 sword is Guts' Dragonslayer. b:dirty

Eoria - Harshlands wrote: »

This is pretty much confirmed due to the two extra weapons for rank 9 that we now know are for seeker and mystic. Doesn't mean they can't use other weps, but dunno how feasible those weps will be with the classes.

well i understand using other weapons, but you guys not looking at bigger picture, so ill use an examply. Assassins primary weapon are? (Daggers) there for can only use skills with daggers. Give him duel swords he cannot skills,only spark burst. Give him a magic sword, you should just uninstall the game. Only other weapons he can use be fists an bow, because you dont need to use skills, just spark an deal damage

So seeker is a claymore therefor probley only can use claymore for skills, can he use other weapons such as bow an fists? yes if stats for them, you put a magic sword on a seeker you need think of another class, i bet when it means seeker has elemental powers, it probley some sort of magic defense buff/debuff seeker is a heavey armor class an mystic ofc arcane, they will never have 2 arcane classes like that released at same time
