    No, the harpy and the monkey king weren't nix and herc upgrades. The wanmei already confirmed this.
    And it's probably with Supply Tokens or tame.

    Now that I have more free time, I've updated the front page a little bit.

    Later I will add in the April 2nd update stuff. I don't feel there is a need to make a new thread as of yet.

    I am strongly considering whether I should have a central thread for PWCN updates/rumors or not.

    Yeah I like that. We've gone through a lot of threads that just discuss what's currently happening in PWCN. Might as well have a dedicated thread for PWCN updates.

    I didn't understand much but it seems there will be aditional stat points that you get when you are lvl 40+.
    Also some new events and weapon fashion that changes look when you are in combat or something like that.

    From what i know that isn't a update but a entirely different server kinda like PWI 3.0 (This is 2.0) and is pretty much a entirely different game. Since dif combat system, skill set, and so forth making it the PW name but pretty much a dif game.

    I've reading this some minutes ago kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk. So it's very confusing, from what I understand, this is something about accunputre points that you get after lvl 40, i don't know but i think that the 5 stats point that you gain per level you change in lvl 40, can be 8 points..., this new system all class wil be improved.

    If this update isn't meant to be to PW though they wouldn't bother leaking information about upcoming things and having screenshots of various pets and items though.

    I think they are just opening a new special server of some sort along with new things to come to the normal servers.

    Just speculation though. There isn't anywhere in the news (or at least that I found) that says anything about a new server.

    From what I read on that Chinese link(using Google Translate), it seems to me that:

    1) they are opening a new "instant-max lvl" server. The new server will NOT affect the normal gameplay of current PWI. You will be able to instantly make a new account/character there if you are atleast lvl 40+ and Aware of harmony on your character in pwi. If I read it right, you will get high lvl character and high lvl gold gear instantly for free on the new server if you meet the requirements.

    2)Coming back to the current pwi servers, there will be a 24/7 active pvp instance(similar to NW) you can enter to fight against players of different servers. Also there will be 2 new map layouts for TWs, besides the current TW map.

    3) The current original pw map will be getting extended with new areas to travel. Also if seems after stealing too many concepts already from the biggest MMORPG game of all time which has a monthly subscription, PWI will yet again have another interesting concept of player interaction with NPC factions. Im not sure, but it does seem like players will now be able to gain favour with specific npcs throughout the world starting with the Qing Emperor's envoys that will be introduced in the next major expansion. The players will thus will be able to buy pots/gear/stuff for cheap than regular prices/repairs might cost less than usual if you hold enough favour, etc.

    That is where i seen it. I interpreted the same thing myself. Until more info is release with something more understandable imma go with that. Plus ya gotta think adding a new combat system and something that kinda makes lvs non existent, makes it not really patchable but more so a new server. Actually sounds like a game more.

    EDIT:
    New "spiritual element heritage" games are played, only comprehension Lianji! The area of ​​the existing game rating of not less than forty, the completion of "harmony" comprehension will enjoy spiritual heritage, and brand new [heritage] the server is open, you can get a high-grade game account directly. settled, dismissed leveling long road.

    Ok kudos you're right xD. However I'm still a bit nervous if that will make it to our version or not.

    On a more sure note, they released some explanations for those 2 maps that were posted a few pages ago. I assume they're for NW since GoogleFailslate says "Country battle system adds two new battlefield".

    http://i.imgur.com/mgvTQ8i.png
    1) red circle and a blue circle, representing the offensive and defensive side three towers spawn points.
    2) for each point, the same time, there is only one tower exists. Current towers were destroyed, refresh next.
    3) Each point can refresh 2 times. (Per point three towers, a total of nine).
    4) for each destroyed enemy a tower, the gain 1 point. The team won the first wreck the other nine towers.
    5) battle for up to 25 minutes. The score leader win. With defending side wins.

    http://i.imgur.com/Ficez3R.jpg
    As shown:
    1) Red Dot birth point for the attacking side.
    2) blue points for the defending born.
    3) The green dot is a point of contention.

    Crystal initially neutral state
    1) Crystal five states
    - completely neutral: no one open, then it has been in neutral. No Integral get.
    - attacking side possession: this state attacking side every 10 seconds for a score increase.
    - defensive side possession: this state defensive side every 10 seconds for a score increase.
    - neutral bias defending side: In this state, no one opened. 30 seconds after the flag of the state becomes: defending side has.
    - neutral partial attacking side: In this state, no one open. 30 seconds after the the banner state becomes: attacking side has.
    Each occupying a crystal, every 10 seconds to get 1 point score.

    1) within 25 minutes, the first to get to the camp for 99 points wins.
    2) 25 minutes, the score leading the team win.
    Accelerating Access Score
    Increased 5 Crystal full possession of the same camp, every 10 seconds a single banner battlefield score: 3 points (1 point) normal bit.

    1) the surrounding four resource points in the possession of the owner of the camp within a certain region of the resources near death, resurrection points resurrection belongs in resource points. Central resource point of no resurrection point, the central region of deaths directly back to the point of birth resurrection.
    2) fails resources near the resurrection, the resurrection birth point.
    3) resurrection point and resource point is not a point. (Resurrection point located the war banner display position.)

    So we haven't acquired the new buffs that go with the new forms. Was there an explanation for this?

    I understand it's just probably one of those things we need to wait out probably, but I was just wondering if those buffs were coming still.

    I forgot to post here, but i've posted some news here: http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1529051&page=36

    I can repeat:

    Today, the new expansion was launched in china. Very well, here's the new informations that i found.

    First of all, the inherit coefficient is based on Venomancer's gear

    There will be 5 inherit coefficients, each coefficient corresponds to one stat. Each pet will have a maximum value for each coefficient. Look for this image:

    http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/5...20e5b6c309.jpg

    It's a phoenix upgraded. The first red bar, it's the attack power coefficient. The phoenix has 75% a maximum value for the attack power. In the image, the phoenix is inhering only 66%, but the veno can train the attack power coefficient of phoenix to 75%. (Remember Training Mode?)
    The second bar is defense coefficient. The same defense percentage value applies to both physical and magic defenses.
    The third bar is HP. The fourth is Attack level and the Fifth is Defense level.
    The maximum values of inherit coefficients that you can reach in the the phoenix are:
    75% for attack power
    20% for defense
    20% for HP
    90% for Attack Level
    60% for Defense Level.
    When this expansion launch here your pet won't have the maximun value for each coefficient, this will be random, the coefficient will be random at the beginning. When you train the pet will can reach the maximum value for all coefficients.

    The skill bar of phoenix in image has 7 Skilks. The 3 extras skills, 1 is exclusive, the other two are personality skills. The exclusive skill of phoenix deals fire damage, triple damage in the air, and damage reduction for all damage received, lasts 15s.


    Here's the images of the the Stats and New Skills of Harpy and Monkey King:

    Harpy
    Monkey King

    The Skills of Monkey king, one grants 30% of damage bonus, and reduces in 75% the damage received by players. And the other one is a disable and a Aoe Skill.
    The Skills of Harpy, the first increase maximum life in 30% and increase 80% of damage in monsters. The other two skills are group attacks, AoE skills. According a player of PWCH the cooldown of harpy skills and the cast its very short, like 1 second. It's a pet for damage in monsters.
    The Herc exclusive skills are two, one grants aggro the other one damage reduction.

    @Edit: The personality System: There will be more of 30 diferent personalities, but only 1 can be chosen, each personality give for the pet two personality skills. When you modify the personality, the two personality skills are replaced for others.

    http://bbs.17173.com/thread-7189372-1-1.html
    http://bbs.17173.com/thread-7188871-1-1.html

    Traning Mode:

    In the Pet Windown, there will be a new button, that will open the Training Interface:

    http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/...25806767f9.jpg

    http://imageshack.us/img819/8...701e7204b9.jpg


    So in the Training Mode the veno can change the pet attributes, "personality", learn Exclusives Skill...
    The training mode will use materials have gotten from the new daily event (Musk deer Lingzhu). Only pets level 100+ can be trained. The pets will change of appearance when you train them, the pet will evolve. The personality is a new system that you can give them characteristics. Some Exclusives SKills depends from the Personality.

    Skill bar of the phoenix after Training

    Skill Bar of the Sawfly after learnt new Skill in the Training Mode.

    There's a Cash Shop Item to get the Harpy and Monkey King.

    1- Sorry, but the pet leveling will NOT be removed. The wanmei confirmed this now, but in this new system, the pet leveling will be furthered. The pet can gain exp by feeding, and training. I don't know if will have a special food. But the exp gained by killing monster will be increased. The training mode is basically kill monster. According to wanmei, the 105 is no longer a dream. (Needs Confirmation).


    2- In the training mode the veno can improve the inherit coefficient, the level, and other things, like personal skills of pet.

    3- There will be a new daily event, and the rewards are:
    Pet skills books including blessing, claws and other powerful blessing skills
    Musk deer Lingzhu: combat pet evolution (can be exp for pet), pulp washing (i don't know), character training and feeding the necessary materials.
    A skill book for veno called Yao Qi strike (squirrel), this is the same name of bewitch before the Descent Expansion launch here, so can be a bewitch squirrel.
    The rewards are based in your performance on the event. I don't know if only venos can do this event.

    4- When the pet reach the level 100, the appearance will change and it will become more powerful.

    putting the news from 2.0 in the same bucket as pwcn is starting to get annoying....
    i guess we have to rely on the Chinese speaking community to hit some real input...

    does this mean that this version will be left aside in time?

    a bump and a question....

    so is this 2.0 an actual expansion of pwcn asociated with opening of extra servers or basically a whole new game (based on the old content)?


    cuz from what i see....

    1.Changes to sot and aba

    2.Changes to Nation Wars

    3.Changes to veno pets


    so is it for us? or they just let pwcn players the way they are and just focus on a new game pwcn 2.0


    i know it's probably offtopic but...bubles or ast any thought on that?

    PWCN 2.0 is an addon content patch for Sirens of War.

    PWCN 2.0 is not an expansion nor is it a seperate version of pw.

    They did add in more servers that are geared for the instant 80, but I cannot confirm at this time if the instant 80 is restricted to those servers or not.

    I did go on those servers and I saw people in the untamed beginner area with the same set of green hh gear and were at level 80.

    I am currently trying to get my sin on another server to level 40. This is currently taking longer than expected due to hypers and whatnot being at high prices (hypers go for 500k, tokens go for 60k, and prices for items in general are very inflated).

    I'll be level 40 later today, tomorrow at the latest.

    I am also looking into a new feature dubbed by google translate as the "spiritual pulse" system. While I don't know exactly what it does yet (Since I have to be at 40 to use it), but it's not a replacement to the stat points as someone else mentioned in this thread.

    All I know so far is that it needs a special item that can be got from the schedule school teacher lady everyday. The menu for it can be accessed by clicking on the silhouette of your character in the bag menu. I have no pictures for that new window as of yet because I have to be level 40 to open it up.

    When you hover over the silhouette button it looks like this.

    This is the spiritual pulse item description as dubbed from google translate. I can't edit the name via the game files.
    You get three of them from the school teacher every day. I don't know if there are other methods of getting them. I'm guessing probably bh but I can't confirm that.

    Alright, I got to level 40 on pwcn.

    I wasn't able to get an instant 80 character right away, I think a new batch of servers that were opened in yesterday's maintenance allowed me to do so.

    There are two things that interest me right now and it's both the spiritual pulse system and the instant 80 stuff.

    The spiritual pulse system is essentially chinese acupuncture, or the meridians, that serves as an alternative stat system. Instead of giving you stats, it gives you hp, phys attack, mag attack, phys defense, and mag defense.

    The window for that looks like this.


    The items for this, as I mentioned in the post above, can be got from dailies. School teacher gives you three of them, bh at lvl 40 and 80 gives you one of them. This may be different at higher level bh's.

    As you can see, I didn't actually use the items yet, I'm hoping to translate some things before I go into further detail about this.

    Now, for the instant 80.

    I really don't know if this is even a feature that will come to PWI. It seems to be a system set up through wanmei's website, and it looks like content that normally isn't brought over(pw radio, etc etc).

    Anyhow, after meeting the requirements (account made before a certain time, level 40, 2x culti), I was able to make a veno character and get her to 80. The item for level 80 was sent to me via mail, and indeed it gave me 35 million experience (and about 7 million sp).

    When I get back to my desktop later tonight I'll see what items are included with the level 80 bundle box. I was given a few set of items but I couldn't figure out where to redeem them (or what I have to do in order to redeem them). I know for sure that one of the tickets gives a set of armor and a weapon, which I believe to be 80 green hh.

    The instant 80 bundle box had some other neat items such as the geographic map and teleport stones.
    The "free gift timer quests" (I don't know what else to call them, it's basically elder quest) appears to give more items after level 60 or 70, I got 100 of mp and hp food, more teleport stones, and timed gold hp and mp charms.

    I went with a veno so I could test the pet system. I'll try and get to this next time I am on.

    Hmm, quite interesting. Although that is almost like a private server, I have high doubts that it will come to our version of the game. As you stated, a lot of features from Wanmei never see the light of day, such as the PW Radio, GM button after 2010, GT chat, server VS server cross wars, some events, etc. Wanmei also often tests the patches for a week, then decides it doesn't like the changes (using a test server). They changed APS and flesh ream aggro, but it never got past the test server.

    While that is a pretty unique idea, I'm pessimistic that we will get it. I'm also semi-worried on the new Abba/SoT changes (BH changes?), and what they will be doing to Nation Wars. Currently, the rewards given from NW are becoming worthless for making profit due to to the influx of raps, cannys, tokens, etc. These new NW-like maps, will they provide new types of profitable returns? Same for current NW, as well.

    Lastly, I'm quite worried about this new "pulse stat system". If it is indeed optional, can it be exploited by putting cash in the game? Also, what benefits will it provide, if any? It's interesting to say the least, and I find myself intrigued. On the other hand, is it a trivial feature? Who knows, hehe.

    To be fair, server vs server wasn't released on pwcn either. Supposedly they have it now, but I don't know chinese to confirm this.

    I haven't looked into it yet. I think pwbrchannel mentioned it.

    I haven't seen any cash options for it yet.

    I'm assuming it'll give minor increases in hp/phys atk/mag atk/mag def/phys def. It could be in increments of anywhere from +1 to +100. Seeing that there are 20 attributes to stat in, each one probably gives you different increases (one might give you hp and phys atk, another might give mag atk and mag def). There is a second window that pops up that goes right over the circle of attributes, there's about 4 circles for each attribute, meaning it might be tiered.

    I'll keep you guys posted on what I find out. Once I've collected enough info, I'll make a separate thread for this.

    Well.

    So much for a pet system revamp. I'm assuming it's actually form of pet recasting as I didn't see any of my pets syncing their level with mine nor did I see their stats change based on my gear.
    I did see the new forms of the pets in game, which leads me to believe that at a certain level or with certain items, this new pet system can be activated. I will need to look more into this.

    As for the spiritual pulse system, the only changes it does for me thus far is giving more HP. Even though it tells me I should be getting +1 to my phys attack or +3 to my mag attack, I got an extra +10 hp. Woo. b:surrender

    The only thing that's fun to mess with right now is the instant 80. They've given me so many freebies that are not timed that it feels like wanmei just wants me to be playing right now. Kinda sucks that the instant 80 doesn't include skills, I'm constantly in a big debt trying to level skills.
