Hey all,


We will be having server maintenance tonight from 11pm to 1am Pacific, during which time the PWI servers will not be accessible. Please plan your night of gaming accordingly.


And for the usual maintenance post:

Have you ever tried re-rolling on a different server? If so, did you stay on the new one, or did you end up going back to the old one? How come?




Thanks,

-The PWI Team

    Yep. Wife decided she wanted to play this game with me, but didn't want to be on a PvP server.

    Think it was shortly after genies came out that I migrated over to HT.

    I'd say between HT and LC for life, I'd only visit other servers (except harshfail)...

    Now will the DQ points fix so I can get my assassin a much better flyer than that quest reward garbage finally? b:cute
    I, II and III spark is the most cheesiest skill in PWI and it should be removed or massively nerfed.

    I have tryed it. Factions make it hard. As well as, current progress.

    atm I have a 35 BM alt on a different server. It's cool but, have a bad feeling that it will be impossible to level.

    Whew first page.

    Just missed the first page..

    I originally rolled on Lost City, but since, at level 30, you couldn't leave Arch without getting creamed, I moved over to Sanctuary. Been here since Nov '08.

    Oh, and to be on topic: First character was a BM on Sanc then later made a Sin & Archer on LC. I also have low levels on a few other servers (HT, HL, Loth).

    mmm Could be that it was a new server. ... Which would have been a good thing. :3

    new server ... low/high prices ... no one being overly powered. couldn't do a fc run for a long while anyways. or kill bosses. xD

    Need to get the Quotes fixed. :x

    Never re-rolled or even had thoughts to do so.
    I'm actually glad I picked HT for the pretty name instead of the default Archo server, can't imagine playing there now. Good old overpriced HT <3

    No i never wanted change server, i created a toon on the EU when it came out to see, but the game is the same on all server, i never used my toon on the EU.

    Normally the perople that want to change of server it's cause they want to go from PvE to PvP or vice versa or cause drama they have on their server and want to go on a server without the people that troll them.

    I believe most people will role to another server if new servers were created. Why? Because you won't be able to hit 105 on a new server. This might also reduce some of the QQing about the current 103+ on each server. The old servers can be monitored and if they show signs of dying out more they can look into server merges on the old servers.

    This is a win for PWI and most playerbase. New servers = more income for the company and keeping most players happy that there are no 103+ JFC glitchers. Now if they only made R9 harder to obtain on the new servers so you don't get one-shooted LOL.

    when i first started i hopped from server to server alot but my first was on sanctuary because i heard on youtube as i was downloading the game that it was the best server, so i got on there n made a archer and out of ignorance i was obliviously making myself a tanking archer, i stated that guy like barb n trew on light leggings and the lvl8 AA robe why?...........cus it looked friggin awasome thats why. Anyway then i was watching pwi on youtube again and thats when i first saw..... it ( @_@)...........PVP/PK....and i just had to have it, so i said forget sanct n hoped over to LC and when i saw the mass pk n all the white n red names i was like........DAYUUUMMMb:dirty and bin hooked ever since (altho i still visited other servers)

    but now 3 years down im thinking about going to another server maybe HT cus i wanna see more ppl but hmm not sure since ive done the lvl1-30 quest n culti so much.....hm but i guess it wont hurt to go at it one more time thob:chuckle

    I want to go back to the time when innocence was Natural, getting high meant, on a swing. Drinking meant lemonade. Dad was the only Hero. Love was Mom's hug. Dad's shoulder was the highest place on earth. Worst enemies were siblings.
    Hurts were Bleeding knees. Broken things were only Toys. Goodbyes meant only till tomorrow!

    Life has changed a lot ....

    Hasn't it .. ?? ..b:sad
