i heard a something about higher gear. Something about pwi adding a 3rd quench to nirvanna or 10.

is this a total rumar?

i am ok with a third quench to nirvanna gear, might get close to r9, BUT r10 would be stupid. r9 makes bh100s instances a joke, i hope they jus work on harder instances with bigger pay offs...

and if r10. SOOOO many ppl will be **** at all the time/money they put into r9 UNLESS u take r9 stuff and maybe 'quench' r9 gear into r10...

I was wondering if there was any truth to the rumar i heard about new gear becoming availible?????????????????????????????? if so pls post where i could find this info

    Hmm. I would not mind a 3rd cast nirvana, I would do that. But I just dont like the propect of a r10. Sadly, we all know something greater then r9 will come eventually.

    offtopic but, i like how these OFFICIAL chinese screenshots have .ini edited characters featured in them. i know chinese allow this, but you would think, that if the chinese version's GMs themselves feature it as to be ok, then why not here? :s

    not sure what u mean by memorial weapons, but i really love the mystic one <3

    They're adding rank 10 soon. It will feature a completely different system than R9, the only common link is that you will need rep. 500k for R10. So yes, all the money spent on tokens and medals, not to mention refining and sharding, was wasted.

    I may be wrong, but I don't think those wep's are lunar nirvana.

    Look closely http://w2i.wanmei.com/resources/jpg/110708/10021310089642348.jpg

    http://www.ecatomb.net/pwi/arme/staff/r100%281%29.jpg

    The wep is the same shape, but the first one has a rainbow glow. The second one is lunar nirvana but doesn't have a rainbow glow.

    That's kind of stupid...how do you one shot someone MORE? Or does it give so much def level that you get one shot less?

    The server is clearly not ready for R10...

    now persoanlly i'll just spend and get w/e new OP armor/wep, if i want to keep playing.

    but honestly, R9 players already have a very easy going against people who dont CS.
    stronger armour/wep than R9 is completly not needed. not to mention pve being way too easy.. who tick in full delta anymore, with r9? none. too stupidly easy any pve.

    the game was more fun when lunar and R8 wepeons was the best. then with nirvana i think was the last addiction this game shoulda had armor/wep wise. R9 and anything above that is too strong.

    If PWi releases r10, or G16 Nirv or w/e, I wonder if ppl will quit, or simply CS/merch it because they are already rich enough to afford it.

    IMO R9 is far to overpowered for the lvl you can get it at. Get R9 and 99% of game content is a cake walk.

    R10/3rd quench would need a higher lvl cap to even remotely work I think b:surrender

    I think we'll see another gear bracket released, with more def/attk level as means to upgrade to get near r9 lvl of power. then later releas another rank to OP the farmed ****.

    I don't think this can be true, I hear R9 is much more scarce in the CN servers, it wouldn't make sense for them to make R10 there. By extension PWI won't get it til PW-CN does.

    Yep. R9 killed the game here already, R10 would finish off the few remaining players left.

    Lost City is a ghost town server in the starter cities. It was so busy 2 years ago, now everywhere but downtown Arch looks like the Archosaur server. b:chuckle

    i was personally hoping they would release new *farmable a-la-nirvana* gears with the Earth Guard expansion, but they didn't, qq.

    R9 isn't the all around "best" for all classes though, to be perfectly honest. Its possibly the best cost:benefit set of end game gears, but not the downright best. For barbs, the mdef is worse than stage 2 lunar nirvy, which is worse than stage 2 tt nirvy - especially when purged/debuffed. Theres only a 7 def level difference at most between fully sharded r9 and stage 2 nirvy. Base defense amounts are already very close between nirvy and rank 9. Even though the rank 9 is g16 and stage 2 is g15, at max refines the HP difference isn't that much either. IDK what people are looking at, but something "close to rank 9" is already in game.

    Also, depending on how one shards - theres *maybe* at 13 attack level difference between full rank 9 and stage 2 nirvy + warsoul weapon.

    true for barbs at least rank 9 has it in spades for pdef and attack power, especially with god of frenzy, but a stage 2 nirvy build with warsoul weapon isnt anything to take lightly either.

    IJS.

    As far as logic would present, there would be a farmable gear within the next year to counter r9, then within a year after that another rank tier. From my understanding regarding instances/gear that are or have been featured on the Chinese test server, there is a grade 16 farmable armor, whether it's an upgrade of nirvana or not has changed in both directions. Though from rumors it is more defensive based than rank 9 rather than damage priority that r9 features.

    Other rumors or items on test servers:

    Interval rings from the teacher quest that require almost an entire year to aquire.

    An upgraded ornament instance paralleling nirvana's armor instance.

    PQs that have armor rewards similar to PQ3's ring rewards.

    An additional gear type that can be paired with genies for set bonuses depending on the point that each meets.

    Attack Lvl 3 and Defense Level 4 imbuable shards.

    A Multi-terrain venomancer pet to parallel mystics.

    An additional cultivation type with new skills for every class.
    Are any of these verifiable? Not really.
    Are all of these potentially going to be released? Maybe.
    Is my mention of these going to spark more threads about rumors? Probably
    Are these great ideas or would they be excellent additions to the game? You decide.
    My opinion:
    yes upgraded nirvana
    yes pq armor
    yes ornament parallel to nirv
    yes cutivation type
    no interval rings
    no atk 3 def 4 shards
    maybe genie set bonuses.

    I think another question to ask is whether this is coming in some new packs - interval rings that-would-take-a-year-to-acquire included.
