    I translated the page and those seem to be new pets. Also, they wrote the silver fox was a new boss, which puzzles me.

    New boss?
    Heh, that's kinda weird. New quests maybe? Not sure what to think of that o.o

    Okay Okay. I'm a native portuguese speaker, and I can translate this.

    PWBRChannel doesn't say nothing about pet gear and pet weapon. The say that pets appearance will change with accessories, colors, flames etc. and the stats of some pets will change too (without inherit coefficient). The new appearance it's not equipment for the pet.

    These information of the PWBRChannel were searched from here:

    Thanks for the confirmation man, I take it the last paragraph is commentary.

    It does go back to whether you can reroll this new random factor, and how much of an effect it does have on a pet's final stats. While I doubt it is any likely to affect legendary pets much, it could prove devastating for 12 hour spawns.

    It would certainly be terribly unfair for many of us to have all the work of having leveled and skilled pets ruined because of a random element similar to genie lucky points. If this is meant to be something that cannot be changed in the pet then, at the very least, a modifier for this roll should be provided to those of us who worked on our pets under the previous system, ensuring we'll at the very least be getting a decent figure. For me that would be a little over 100 mil as well as countless hours invested in leveling on the line... I'm certainly not interested on the enormous effort it would suposse to buy/tame enough 12 hour spawns so that I can get my pets with a decent stat, only to later be forced to reinvest on rare skills, especially if the additional skill slots are not limited to legendary upgrades, which could make something around 4 rare skills the minimum for non-legendary competence.

    While I've always favoured things that add to a pet's uniqueness, this coefficient could mean a ptactical end to rare pets. The only reason I don't think it threatens legendaries is even Wanmei couldn't be that stupid.

    Updates!

    Pet appearances and stuff.


    There is some information on the upgraded new pet system etc. and several pet appearances.
    From the looks of it, there might be pet accessories to change their appearance or something but that's just a wild guess.

    -Pops back in to see what's new
    -Checks out Desdi's link...-

    o.o...

    Well, being a native Spanish speaker it would make more sense for me to use google translation from Portuguese into my own language, which would make it a fairly accurate word for word transcript, than to go the round about way of translating the text into a non Romance tongue...

    I have translated from Portuguese to English, and to Spanish. It always gives me the same idea.

    I think the only language Google Translator has troubles with is Chinese, since it's so complex and obscure. Any Western Language can be translated perfectly.

    P.S. My native language is Spanish.

    b:sweat I guess we should now dispose of Julio Cortazar's translation of Edgar Allan Poe's work, I mean Google does so much better...

    Certainly, yes, it's pretty much stating the obvious that translation will be much easier amongst Western European languages. The written form of Mandarin that has been coded into simplified Chinese involves not only a different grammar and vocabulary, but outright a different mindset when it comes to expression. You cannot literally translate ideograms into phonetic systems...

    Which doesn't make the dictionary being used the sole difference in between Latin and Germanic languages. Si bien ciertamente diferimos en la apreciacion de estas sutilezas, eso no deberia llevarnos a pronunciamientos generalizados...

    Wonder if the monkey king will be range abled.

    After careful consideration, I've come to the conclusion that Marksmans and Sharpshooters are not flinging stones; but pooh. There are no stones around for them to fling, I've never seen a primate other than human fling stones, but I have seen them fling pooh!

    Oh yay! My cuddly pup will evolve into a grown dog. I kind of like it being a cuddly puppy though. Anyone got an idea if the tabby changes too? Full grown cat i guess? The armored bear didn't changed much, and the kowlin is kind of ugly. They added a lace outfit on the pig, which i think is funny. The sawfly looks beastly for whoever still uses that.

    Makes me want to get a sawfly lol. It's really badass.

    No screenshot or information about the tabby being changed yet. I kind of hope it didn't because it's really cute they way it is right now :(

    the cactus reminds me the morai one b:chuckle

    and looking at kowlin , idk why, for me it seems it came from tattoo saloon

    i think it looked good as purple, they could of add purple flames or something (something like demon tiger mount)
    or all into floating flames (doesnt matter color)

    The new fox form is a DEFINITE improvement to a fox with eyeliner! b:laughb:laughb:laugh
    A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.

    Just so I do not invest in a Nix or Herc again on my new server, are the better versions of the Nix and Herc independent pets or are they upgrades? Basically, I'd like to know if I should invest in both the Nix and Herc or wait until something better comes out...

    We don't have an answer yet but the content update is scheduled on February 16th so we might have more information then.
    For now, I'd say save your coin.

    That's for PWI, PW-CN has a different time for maintenance. I can only assume from the lack of info they postponed the update again :/

    I couldn't find any news, patch news or announcements when I searched at the weekend. I didn't check today but as it has been said, considering the lack of any information, the patch might have been postponed yet again.

    So...somebody linked me http://youtu.be/xcM2WWzS1m4.

    It confirms that new fox form still allows you to use normal fox form skills however it appears that you can no longer use the old fox form. o.o unless I'm missing something.

    o.o Kawaii desu! New fox form sure is smexy. I want it QQ

    However, I remember seeing that we wouldn't be able to use the old fox form in tandem with the new one. Or it could be that the icons are the same, or maybe it really replaced the new fox form.

    I guess we'll just have to see when it gets here.

    Also, it seems like it was implemented a while ago because while browsing the videos of that same person, the veno and barbs update got updated since mid/end of January. Either way, I hope this reaches us soon.
