    Looking at the concept art, wouldn't it logical to say that they should be labeled as empress rather than emperor because they are female? Sorry if the question has already been posed; I didn't feel like looking through 25 pages of stuff.
    Not motivated enough to make another PWI siggy

    I guess.
    I only use the word emperor for a lack of official english translations. Google translate kept on using the word emperor and when I was originally writing up this guide a month before the expansion released, I didn't know who the emperors were.
    I'll change it when PWE finally releases information about the expansion and tells us if they are emperors, empress, or some other term. The localized term might be different.

    I don't think we've ever had bound tomes, have we? Unless you use a bound charm on it purposely...

    The new tome might bump down Pangu and Love up and down most likely but new tome will be very expensive, much higher then LUAD for sure.

    Base tomes.

    I'm hoping these won't auto-bind though.

    Fairly certain the new tome in CN only had -0.05. If so, and if we get the same one, I doubt anyone would buy it and prices would be unaffected for -int tomes.

    Going by the manufacturing costs the lvl 8 tome is going to be 1.72b while the lvl 9 tome is 7.7b. Thats on top of the cost of a LuaD. That's assuming you have to manufacture the gold mats though. While there still may be a way to win the gold mats directly, I only saw accounts of people being awarded the basic mats from doing the new TW (around 500 per event).


    While checking this I noticed that the 3 new engraving options are actually for Necklaces and not Rings.

    At this rate, pure builds with 700+ in their damage stat is gonna become both realistic and potentially common...

    That is rather interesting, should be able to help players at all lvls with engravings on rings and necklaces, make up for point allocation issues in the start, or make end-game gear more attuned to a player's style.

    Now only if we could dex, str and magic (not mp) stones b:avoid.

    Found something else that's kind of cool while wandering around.

    They added a new new NPC next to the banker thats an AH for high-end goods. http://i.imgur.com/EQLAU.jpg

    From what I can tell you can list an item for up to 7 days, the fee is a flat 300k.

    Hmm, you can also sell characters if they are lvl 95+. Doing view info on a character that was for sale took me to this web page: http://www.xunbao178.com/wmgj/showDetail.gsp?aid=10&commid=1627784

    ....

    Actually I think this is probably a real money auction house. I doubt we'll get it.

    It was 0.10 INT. It was nerfed to -0.05 due to OP-ness. But the high stat boosts still stand.

    We already have one. We can buy gold, sell the gold, and buy the items from players. This would just cut out the middle man so to speak if they do it.

    I don't see implementing it changing much other than people being able to make mad money off PWI if they can withdraw the cash, and maybe some prices soaring cause lazy people will bid more. But I've been wrong before on some game change assumptions not making too much of an affect, but I think its because I undervalued the lowest common denominator. And thinking that...yea I take that back. Prices will soar if people can withdraw money from it. RMAH might actually kill this game in the short/mid term given the amount of whining that goes on right now about prices.

    If youre right about it, the week long high end goods AH is kinda nice! I hope its got better sort & search functions than our current.

    Gold isn't real money though. At the end of the day PWE keeps all the cash that comes in while players have the gold/coins. This AH lets you sell a character / high end gear directly for dollars. I imagine PW still takes a cut of that cash though.

    I think this might have been on PWCN for some time before the expansion so I don't think it's coming here. It's just the first time I noticed it.

    I doubt any game company would allow the player to make money legally off of them unless they allowed character selling which I've heard of 1 or 2 that do. Other then that selling your character is against the rules and gets you banned if found it. PW is like all companies...make money, low risk/loss aka greedy for $$.

    Actually real money auction houses are fairly popular in MMOs these days. This is because they can't really stop third party sites from setting up their own real money markets from which the third party site makes a profit. If the publisher releases their own market in-game they get to keep that profit and out-compete the third party market.

    Id expect them to take a cut if you could withdraw the cash. Ugh, now that Ive found my brain, its wrecked so many US games who did not have it from the start, I really hope they don't implement that. If you can't withdraw I can see it having smaller impact, though.


    Do more research Cath, lots of games allow you to do it and take a cut, or just don't enforce the no-nos of it. Usually the signs of a dying game too when implemented later on.

    Nice to see them upgrading the quests. Hopefully they'll be more worth doing now.

    Ohh also I think they are letting you stack base apoth!
    5 上调帮派基地所用功勋兑换的药品的堆叠上限。
    "The the 5 raised gangs base used maximum stack feats convertible drugs."
    I can tell because google translate puts 'base', 'drugs', 'maximum', and 'stack' all in the same sentence. Man I'm good at chinese.

    I'm going to update my client to see if I can find specifics on that.

    Just checked and they raised the stack limit from 1 to 100 for Pan Gu :)
    Here's the new LA helm. http://i.imgur.com/vzvpb.png it's exactly same as Golden Blast helm except it has 260 base HP and dex instead of STR. (still has 200 mres)
    also the new World Quest XP is 678k for 90+ / 452k for 80+ / 226k for 70+
