if you go far west and far north it says (Upcoming)
And you can actually see more land looks like north is wind or ice b:cold cause of the mountains and west is... fire b:angry.. a all fire type race I would guess cause it's nothing but desert.
and before genesis it also said (Upcoming) in the south and boom there's Genesis lol
What do you guys think?

    I guess the old "Unavailable" sounded too harsh. They want to instill a sense of false hope in you.

    well, we had the original pwi, then "age of spirits". then rising tides (water), now genesis (earth). i had a thought that maybe they would keep expanding, making them themed on the elements of pwi, metal, fire, water, wood, earth. or just the "common" elements of myth, fire, water, wind, earth.
    if the last one is the one their going with, then maybe age of spirits was wind?

    idk if they actually will... this is just a random day dream/thought train i had during maths class one day.

    well, i could see how thse areas might be used for some extra content to further envelop a plot with the takeover or destruction of the wraiths however i do not see a way of introducing a new race along with those areas since there seems to be a element/race coalition since:

    5 mats based on element inside Guild Bases (Wood, Air, Metal, Earth, Water)
    5 existing races (Earthguard, Winged Elves, Humans, Untamed, Tideborn)

    1 mat per race with Air replacing fire (since elements are Water, Fire, Wood, Metal and Earth)

    unless they somehow come up with some random element to attribute to a new class that coincides with those 5 elements (which ofc are based on ancient chinese beliefs or w/e) i see no possibility of a new race/classes

    Untamed Seems to gavitate toward Wood

    Elves have an affinity toward metal

    Human Beats me. Wizzy has only fire attack really so we call em fire I guess

    it's odd to me that you never even included the original 3 races in your theory. we do still exist ya know.

    and if you go far SOUTH at the end of the new EG area it says upcoming... if u go far EAST out in the ocean it says upcoming.... doesnt' mean there'll be more expansion. Which there probably wont' be. I think it used to say unavailable.

    Winged Elves (both classes) = Metal
    Human (mainly wiz) = Earth, Water, Fire
    Untamed (both classes) = Wood

    All five elements are covered with the first three, everything else is cake frosting. Fish and Earthworms don't have any set, defined elemental "mastery," just a mix of damage types - they may fulfill class/gameplay roles, but with regard to story and elemental origin, they're shoe-horned in.

    just a small note. metal element is the sky element, so wind, lightning and such all fall under it.

    also humans are under the element of fire since fire is the element of invention

    inside faction bases there are 5 mats needed to upgrade with go along with that for example

    Tellus Wood = mat for EG -Wood element
    Lost Sand = mat for untamed - Earth element
    Ether Steel = mat for human - Steel element
    Raging Flask = mat for TB - Water element
    Plume Feather or w/e cant remember = mat for elves - sounds much like Air

    just went along with that set up and if u search the chinese elements they'll list water, fire, earth, metal, and wood however none of the mats given per race from base seem to refer to fire

    As long as pwi making a profit they'll be new expansion, They'll make something up like......pwi in the future or pwi lost in space. Although I heard pwi isn't going to do your house dealio. They still have that in other versions if I'm not mistaken. You know eventually at some point that'll bring that one out to this version.

    OK, here's the elemental alignment of each race according to their storyline base. (yes i actually read/keep up on the story in PWI's main quests.) These are all taken from the quest-line about the disaster foretelling the return of Pan Gu to the world. Each race/town was Aligned with a specific thing

    Etherblade: Humans: Fire: The Celestial Flame will scorch the earth raw.
    City of the Plume: Elves: Metal: The Great Tornado will wipe the land clean.
    City of the Lost: Untamed: Wood: The Wooden Stampede will crush any opposition.
    Frost Castle (Later replaced with the Tideborn): Water: The Raging Flood will wipe the ash and debris for life to renew.
    Tellus: Earthguard: Earth: The Final Quake will rip the earths face in Pan Gu's Image.

    Yea now please gimme all the nerdflame posts ya want b:chuckle

    if they truly wanted to be awesome, we could play as the Wraiths. But that would take way to much work for them, wouldn't it?

    I suppose they could make a undead race....

    Larkray, i commend you for being someone who also enjoys reading the story.

    as for the expansion speculation, since all five elements are covered racially i kind of doubt there will be any more expansion in that area. thats not to say there might not be any more new classes in the future though.

    Maybe it's reserved for future expansions, I doubt they'll stop adding new content to the game unless they decide not to keep working on Perfect World and let the game die (I highly doubt though).

    I don't think there is room for more classes. Any class that is to appear will just be a copy of an existing class (of this game or another) that will just replace the said existing class.

    Maybe there will be expansions like The Lost Empire and Age of Spirits. They didn't introduce new classes, just some new content.

    Well, now pwi has all the classic classes that can be found in a rpg:

    bm=warrior
    barb=barbarian
    cleric=healer
    archer=archer
    assassin=rogue
    psy=sorcerer
    wiz=mage
    mystic=druid
    seeker=paladin
    veno=witch

    Now the one is missed it's one that use some "trick" and ingeering, like gnomes. Maybe can be that, and use fire/earth element.

    I wouldn't expect a new race (for the reason of the five elements, mostly), but I'm 99,5% sure there will be at least one new, upcomming expansion - to cover that dent on the map, just under EG teritories.

    Maybe some new:
    1/ dungeon
    2/ event
    3/ both? b:chuckle
    It would be nice to have more PQs, for example. Maybe a harder area with endgame PQ?

    honestly i think a interesting concept that maybe they should play with is permitting ppl to have subclasses to their main classes. like maybe allow archers to take a sin subclass and have a water downed stealth or a barb take a cleric sub class and have some form of defensive buffs/heals. ofc i wont say make them horribly OP but i think it would put a nice spin on things. *awaits the LOLFAILNEWBGTFO post*
    If I sound like I hate you, please don't take it personally...chances are I actually do.
