    you mean that we have to choose between the expansion that introduced the infamous sins to the game or the last one that is still "incomplete"?

    tough question.

    I picked Lost Empire expansion (not on the list, so i don't voted on this). The game was way better than now. I don't miss any new races, or bhs really (old FF was an interesting stuff on comprehending).

    Rising Tides. I joined around the time of that expansion and it gave me my favorite pet and my psychic.

    5aps didn't destroy pvp, sins did.

    And as others have said, it's an odd choice.
    The expansion that introduced a gamebreaking class, or the expansion that really didn't change anything...

    Lost Empire all the way.

    Age of Spirits is a close second before the massive genie nerf because at that time we had literally no reason to complain about the QQbird (which was one of the more powerful tools around at the time due to gear standards).

    I joined up during Rising Tide, so that's the one I'd have to pick. Quit about a day before the Genesis release (ik ik) the started playing again after forgetting my old account info a year later xD

    Haven't tried the new classes, so can't say too much there. But the areas they added look pretty sweet.

    Kinda wish I played PWI before the two expansions so I knew what it was all about.

    You should change it to which expansion was worse as it is hard to call either one good.

    I'd have to say Genesis is better because Rising Tide had a lot more bugs and badly designed classes.

    genie expansion ofc would you want this game without domain/ToP etc etc.

    if genie didnt exist how would pvp look now when a sin **** up aside from the 1 shoot ones

    5aps sparked was possible before Rising tide, 4.0 unsparked base was not.(for non-archers) 5.0 came out with the anni packs.

    Hard to choose which one of these would be better b:surrender

    I voted for Genesis because I like the Seeker and how they can only use swords, that`s just fun, and they have crazy def, plus can hit from a long range. Plus the Mystic is a good class with the plants and the QUICK heals. Now I know that they don`t have R9, but d othey rly need it? b:chuckle

    The TB expansion wasn`t bad either, two of the most OP toons were then created. Sins...I love Rib Strike, but being a front line melee in LA, you need it, plus the rest of the status effects they have. Not a huge fan of seeing 4 million sins that are 4.0+ demon lol. Psychics on the other hand...not to much to say about them except DAMN! Me though, I prefer a Wiz to a Psy, just because of all their AOE`s.

    I would have to say all time favorite was Age of Spirits, back when the game made sense and we made fun of bm`s with fists b:laugh
    Rewind to 2008. Before aps, plvl, etc. Back when we all used to LAUGH at bm`s with fists because they couldn`t do any damage compared to pure axe bmb:laugh

    Man them were the good days.

    I'm sorry but what?! Genies were out before Tideborn, thus no genies = no Tideborn.
    I miss the original PWi... Balance was actually defined as the word promotes itself.

    Some Rules each PWI Gamer should know
    1. Dont break this rules & no matter what: DONT TRUST ANYONE!
    2. Dont pay wine or heads fee (like to get kicked after that?) b:chuckle
    3. Dont borrow items (since when return gms scammed stuff?) b:embarrass
    4. Dont use your password in faction-forums (like hacks?) b:fatb
    5. Dont give your mats to the tt-banker (obvious, not?) b:beg
    6. Dont wait for help, or heals, or any other miracles,... (for more examples just play pwi and you will hate the whole humanity) b:bye

    Age of Spirits. If we have to choose from last 2 expansions I'd say genesis.

    if i had to pick beween the two genisis hands down. even if it's incomplete. RT bought too much OP to the game. the absolute best expansion would be age of spirts when gold was for 100k and there was balance and where there were more people who didn't act like elitist as$holes.

    Why is there a bunch of people here that seem to be incapable of reading? the thread asks, which of the 2, RT or genesis, yet people are saying age of spirits/lost empire or what ever, I mean way to ruin a thread quickly, if some people can attempt to use there head for a slight second and just answer the thread properly, that would be great.

    Personally I vote for genesis, for the classes obviously, I mean what else did either of the "expansions" bring that actually added something fun to do for everyone? rising tide broke the game with sins and psys, sins are just uber broken, psys have totally OTT casting time/spell power and other daft skills in PvP, the genesis classes, I don't see to much wrong with them at all, seekers arn't OP simply because they don't have 5aps, therefore I say there more balanced, mystics are a great addition to PvE, PvP well idk, shamefully I don't see that many mystics.
