    idk if they're necessarily daily quests but they sure seem like it.
    they seem like regular type quests that you turn in and get exp and spirit for.

    you get 2 a day apparently..... and they give you a list of which you can pick from. i think the number of quests available increases with level. and you go to different NPCs to receive them depending on your level.


    you also receive items for completing quests apparently. you can turn them in for : high grad Apo, Mysterious Chips, Molds, and other goods.

    im not quite sure how it works cause i havent found a guide on their site for it yet :O. but the exp is good a low lvl.



    buts thats all i can get from the NPCs lol




    (forgive me if this was confusing, but im still trying to figure it out myself xD)

    and maybe its been explained elsewhere and i missed it xD

    Go here for the original news post, which includes some new concept art :)

    Perfect World: Genesis



    An ancient Pan'Gu prophecy has foretold the destruction of Perfect World:



    "There will be a time when the beautiful world will cease to exist as we know it today.

    The land of Perfect World will suffer destruction the likes of which has never been seen. The world will be torn apart, leaving massive crevasses across its surface. The oceans will rage with turmoil and the tides will swallow everything in their path. The races of the world, thrown into chaos, will not understand what is happening to their beautiful world."



    The time of the prophecy has come.



    However, within the depths of the underground, an ancient race of people with arcane powers and innate psychic abilities has foreseen the coming of this post-apocalyptic world. In knowing the future, they have dedicated their lives to prepare for such a day. The time has now come for them to emerge from the underground. They must join the other races of Perfect World and fight alongside them through the coming disaster.



    Players will be able to participate in helping to restore the world back to its Perfect state. What changes has the destruction brought upon our Perfect World? What new challenges await you? Prepare yourself for Genesis!

    - New Race - The Earthguard
    - Two new classes - "Seeker" and "Mystic"
    - New areas to explore
    - New dungeons
    - New monsters and gear
    - New guild bases


    Perfect World: Genesis - Coming soon to a PWE Free-to-Play near you!

    - PWE Staff
    I think developers must concentrate in get better graphics for pwi because its out of date already.
    There will be 2 more class thats meam will be more dificult to find a cleric and barb for party. I think pwi must focus in develop new skills for all class and make cleric and barb more playable otherwise people will get boring and leave like i did.

    PW already has much better graphics than most f2p and p2p games despite being so old... Maybe things that need to be spiced up are some skill animations and hand textures. Why don't they just copy the code from JD or FW and give us more beautiful hands?! b:cry Characters in JD/FW do have 5 fingers. b:surrender

    I would say that, there are other games with nice graphics if not silimar then better that are f2p. Alot new games that are coming out in 2011 are using unreal 2.5 or 3 engine or crysis engine that are f2p. Dont look at unsuccessfull ****ty games. Look at other games that have pretty good standing in the market compare to pwi. Allthough pwi does need to improove the graphics a little, not too much though. But better though optimise their engine so that crouded town wouldnt be so laggy or have a feature that hides players when entering town.

    I have looked at classes, and the more I look at them the less hiped I get!

    Seeker has ton of aoe but it seems he is mana dependent. Havent found the advantages yet!

    Mystic, seems to be weaker than veno with a healing skill.

    I may be wrong, has anyone seen any advanges of any of the 2 new upcomming classes?

    that's odd, cause the more i look the more excited i am for when they come out ^,..,^

    --ofcorse the seeker is mana dependant. i've heard people say it's very much like a barb. if it's got high hp amounts, good def, and use aton of AoE, and enhance his weapon with elemental buffs, there has to be some downsides, otherwise where would the balance be?

    -as fer the advantages to seekers, they use elemental buffs to give more damage on their weapons, and the use swords/dual swords, so they got pretty good aim. which means maybe with their hard hitting skills they'll be able ta put up a fight agenst sins, and with the elemental buffs they might do good agenst all the fist bms that appeared to deal with the sin population^^ also, elements+good def=barb killer.

    -for those who dispute the balance of the class, they got low mdef, good aim because of sword stats, but not too high, aswell as their evasion. low mp amounts, slow attack rate with dual swords, faster attack rate with swords, but less dmg. and personally, my guess is they will all try ta use dual swords, because, well, look at all the BMs who use swords, most of them are dual wielders, maybe cause it looks cooler er somethin, who knows? not me, i have no idea.

    --yeah, mystics are weaker than a veno with healing skills. they're a support class. they're meant to be able ta help all the other classes, without replacing them. they're like if a wizard and a cleric had a kid, and then that kid, mated with a veno. 3 slightly downgraded versions slapped together into a playable class. they don't have all the high dmg spells like a wiz, but they've got afew high damage spells with very long channel times (mastermind curse), and they're like clerics, but they only got 1 fast healing spell, and a HoT spell that's a buff casted that activates when the person it's casted on gets below a certain hp amount, and ofcorse, they have a res skill, and that's a buff casted on a target that gives them a rev option if they die in the 15 minutes that spell is active, and yes, and they're like venos, because they have pet like summons, but they're abit squishier, and a mock of the veno pet heal spell which also allows them to heal veno pets(one more way fer them to support), aswell as a douplicate version of the veno's lvl 1 skill.

    -advantages, they have a way of supporting every class, while not outshining of having the ability to replace any.

    -example of a sinario: you're in a squad with a barb, a cleric, a wizard/psychic, a BM/assassin, and a veno, as a mystic, here's what you can do.
    ---boss fight starts, veno sends in pet, barb steals agro and tanks, the bm/assassin goes up right comfy next to the boss, and the wizard/psychic starts to DD.
    ---you cast a self res buff on everyone before the boss fight starts ofcorse.
    ---you ofcorse send in your summoned monster to attack with the veno's, then you check the barb's health, if it's going down, you help the cleric heal, if the cleric can spam heal and keep the tank alive, you cast that HoT buff on the barb fer if his hp goes below a certain level, andmove on.
    ---next thing you check, is that lovely bm/assassin DD getting hit by the bosses AoE, if so, and the cleric is busy with the barb, heal them up, if not, cast the HoT buff on them just fer safe keeping, and move on.
    ---with all the heals taken care of, you move on to damage dealing with mastermind curse, and whatever other good dmg spells you have, while keeping an eye on your summon's hp ofcorse.
    ---but wait, OH CRUD!!!!! the veno's pet stole agro and is now getting thrashed to all hell by the boss. you help heal the pet until the barb regains agro, then to back to damage dealing
    ---but wait, OH CRUD!!!!! that wonderful BM/assassin who was gettin all comfy with the boss dies from a high powered AoE and the cleric is to busy healing the hell outta the barb ta res them. you help heal the barb so everything goes back ta normal, and when the BM/assassin resurects themselves because of the buff you put on them, you heal them up, and they get back to fighting.

    -with the mystic being able ta do all of this it might seem like they're overpowered, but lets take a closer look shall we?
    ---they have a pet like a veno, but it's abit squishier, and unlike a veno's pet, that can be whatever the veno wants it to be, and shoot it's skills asmany times as it wants without anything but the cooldown's stopping it, a mystic's summoned pet can only be what the summon is, there is no changing that, they can't tame, and their summoned creatures have an mp system, so eventually after they've used their skills a certain number of times, they need to refuel their pet's mp by giving it their own. i will give mystics one thing tho, to the best of my knowledge they don't have ta feed their summoned creatures, which is nice, but due to that, they can't increase their attack to 120% of what it normally is.
    ---they have healing skills like a cleric, but by far not as many, they've got 1 fast acting one, and a buff that only activates and eals if the hp amount falls below a certain thresh hold, and clerics still have a ton of buffs that mystics don't have. to the best of my knowledge, blue body care can't be casted on others, so that leaves them with the res buff that lasts 15 minutes, and while very useful, could make people abit careless, and the HoT buff that only activates if a person happens to fall below a certain thresh hold.
    ---i'm probly the only one who considers themwizardlike at all, but they've got some DDing capabilities, so i'ma adress it. they don't have asmany dding skills, and mastermind curse has a 5 second channel time, thas fckn crazy, not that there aren't wizard skills with a 5 sec channel time, but still, it's fckn crazy.


    -so yeah, 3 weak classes roled into one playable class, incredibly useful in a party, but only to suppliment existing classes, wouldn't be able to do all 3 jobs successfully at once without backup, so awsome, yes, overpowered, no.

    you diddnt mention there "trap" summoning abilitys! o_o and thats the thing i like most about them i think, they have 1 DD trap with a decent damage output, it attacks slow, but still, it DDs, they have there curse pet, slows down there phy and mag casting speed and decreases there phy and mag defense, i think they only have them 4 curses anyway, thats gonna be very useful in boss fights i think, at least if there isnt a sin to keep using rib strike, or if its just a sin thats to lazy to use it, then the pet will do it for us, they got other pet traps, but ive forgotten what they are atm

    Seeker is a anti-barb
    They have different element to kill elemental mobs faster.
    They uses some magic attacks which can harm barbs a lot.
    They have good def and high hp to tank physical damage, tho not magic damage.
    Low MP + Slow Attack Rate also weakens the class.

    Mystic is a Hybrid Wizard
    They have:

    Wizzy:
    *High damage skill(+) with long channeling(-).

    Veno:
    *Summon pet (+) with lesser health (-)
    *A variation of Venomous Scarabs

    Personal:
    Trap summon which attack even when they die. (._. I am thinking somewhat like the bomb mobs in BH39)

    Cleric:
    *Fast healing spell
    *HoT spell
    *Self-res buff (+) that last for 15 mins (-)
    IMO I say it's more along the lines of Sin's self-res.

    Like the post above me they are the Anti-Barb since they have the tanking ability's like a barb but I doubt they will have higher HP than a barb so they can't tank everything a barb can tank. Like a pure Axe BM is able to tank some bosses but not all of them. b:pleased

    I also believe they will be able to AoE grind better than any other class since they have high defense and a lot of AoEs.


    Lastly does anyone know if Seekers have a self heal like BMs or something? b:question

    This is 98.9% of the sins playing now. They won't do **** to slow down the mobs attack speed. They spark and take hate and cry because IH didn't save them. I think back and sins don't bother to do skills other than blood paint and its sad. I know Mystic will be very useful with a squad with good members.

    >.<

    So let me get this straight-this class being a weaker combination of 3 classes can't PvP/TW properly as a stand alone DD type of class? Annoying as hell yes, but they can't take out specific threats 1 v 1? Thats my only concern really seeing as I'd like to be a tad bit more useful than just being in a "secondary cata-cleric" situation.

    I like magic users but Wizzy channeling time sucks, Venos are super versatile but I barely have the patience outside of leveling a Cleric, Cleric is mostly support even when demon, and Psy's are too squishie for my tastes lol. And alot of the tie end game casters get thrown to the wayside for Nirvana's and such so the only casters that really survive the 5 APS era is Venos and Cleric. (and even now clerics are getting shafted for ppl that can tank w/ BP+charm+HP foods >_> )
