I'm still reading, so I haven't seen much, except the gold prices are fluctuating wildly.

Duke is being a nuisance and making me so JELLY!!!

Some of the stuffz looks interesting...I can't seem to find out if we will be able to do TW bids in our normal area or not...

thoughts, comments and suggestions encouraged.....

    Not many changes - the quest lag definitely wasn't fixed. I think we will hear more from people after this week's tw.

    btw, i have a question:

    Is this the expansion they are talking about or is this just an update?

    if this is the expansion... fml, i am so out of here on 8/28 b:surrender

    @Seeler Yeah the afk room is quite nice, especially for those hours you're not available to the game. And quest lag is unfortunately still there

    @Haha_dude From what new ingame NPCs stated, as well as what they said in the post on the front page, as well as the "Upcoming Content: PWI: Reflection" sticky in General Discussion still being stickied, I think this is just a first of series of updates.

    knowing PWI most likely this is it for this update. all they said was coming is supposely there i think. altough its highly dissapointing if u ask me. Id rather have quest lag fixed instead of an empty warsong where u get 2-3k xp each minute.

    On the one hand this sounds really good for helping any die-hard players try to regain some real life back, but it doesnt do much at all for creating ingame activity for players.

    The thing that has excited me the most so far is seeing so many peeps ingame yesterday and the night before! Honestly dont remember seeing so many players in Arch since December. =\

    i dont think you can get shards from the schoolteacher. i checked the rewards earlier and didnt see where you trade pages for the shards. unless you get it when she gives you the page? idk, i havent done school teacher since...........the day she was introduced i think. idk, never needed the rings and it hardly seemed worth it for a single p stone.

    You get the shards as a reward along with the page and bless box. You can't trade pages for them, but you get two shards as a reward for doing the quest.

    Unless the mount is unique and pony-related, I probably wouldn't be that interested in it D:.

    I mean, we don't even know if it's mounts that will be rewarded.

    Nicer TRIAL drops! That is a good thing....MAYBE we'll get the high lvl exp shards with our normal, member trial rewards?? would be nice too.

    Also, MAYBE, BIG MAYBE, we could hyper exp in the EXP SAUNA??

    Well, I'm not diggin' the new TW Bidding Process...seems more like buying since they put a price on it and tell you in what increments you are allowed to bid...but meh

    I think the 7 way gank will be fun, when we gain more balance in the TW Factions.

    The PK in Morai event might prove to be fun, we'll see.


    I don't see a LOT of new content...maybe that's coming at a later date??

    still looking for something GREAT!!

    Really? Wow, I had hoped they were trying to make the game better, and make TW more attractive to smaller factions. Its starting to look more like a coin sink. =\

    The more I read though, Id have to say I agree with seeler. Still looking for something "great". *keeps looking around* Maybe next maintenance...b:shutup

    I could take pwi for been a lil more serious in improving the over all game if it wasn't for the spazy "improvements" they made

    7 way TW good as could of allowed more active map with more factions TW but wait 10m to START bidding... k scratch that

    better quest rewards for peps could of encouraged more ppl to start playing properly and less dead area's of the map as they wouldn't need to cs gold for coin to buy heads and stand in snowy for hrs on end waiting for squads. Oh wait they left it at starter quests and made a AFK zone to lvl from 3x upwards no boost to activity there then as who wants to join a multi player game were every1 is afk or massivly higher in lvl then you so u dont get to squad with em ( note pwi if the plan is to turn game into a solo play experience there are plenty better on consoles or pc already w/o having to fund your cash shop )

    DQ items that now sell for only 1 coin ... why would you even? the best items from dq rewards have already been taken out was it really necessary to make it even less appealing to bother dq farming?

    Yey :D they realised that there are some issues with skills for classes been a lil outdated/pointless and have made improvements hopefully to bring classes more in line with all the other gear content updates
    "Skill Changes
    Assassin
    - Spoils of War cooldown reduced to 3 seconds.
    - Items dropped via Spoils of War are now flagged for the Assassin for 30 seconds, before changing to free for all.
    - New Assassin skill "Keeper of Treasures" grants user immunity to Spoils of War."

    Wait what? That's it?
    Im not saying Spoils of war didnt need a shorter CD (cos i wouldnt know) or sins shouldn't have that new immunity skill but of all the classes they chose to improve stuff for they pick the 1 that's prolly least in need, cos to be pragmatic about it the vast majority of people still playing use a sin either as a main or as a farming/pk alt. That suggests sins probably aint at the top of the list of classes that need a little refreshing, how about idk its acknowledged clerics are probably due a stun immunity for either pve or pvp or barbs getting an overhaul on all aggro skills to play their role as tank betr against all the r9 dps maybe BM gettin weapon paths that are more upto date and not rendered obsolete or seekers having a more defined role are they DD or are they tanks? archers able to get BP for wen they feel the need to use fists ( thats not an endorsement btw b4 u all start ;p) psy's,mystics and wizzy's im not to sure about bt im am sure there are a few ppl out there who could give an idea or 2. Point is tho the highest played class is also the easiest to farm r9 once u hit a certain lvl of dps and prolly already the most CS'd, so if not make some skill tweaks to get more ppl using the other classes for the Player's you'd think PWI would of done it for themselves to try and broaden their customer base :/

    New pk event woot, oh wait its only the same 20-30 ppl who seem to regularly PK anymore i hope this will change it but i'm not betting it'll be long term, blood theatre is practically dead now its shininess has worn off and yeh b4 any1 says i admit i barely pk any more as i dont see point in pvp past TW i like most ppl who still pk so lil motivation plus im a fail/nab sage BMb:chuckle

    so vent over those are me thoughts ;D
