New PW Expansion (PWCN: Glory and Rebirth)

I hate being under water in PWI. movements are so slow and uncontrolable.

That doesnt help. Especially not since the attacks are very limited in tideform

these new warsoul weapons?

Highly doubt it... If Warsoul weapons got a recast over what they have now, they would be stronger than Rank 9 third cast weapons currently.

Bad or not, it's rather unlikely seeing as they kept rank gear as the superior one so far.

I was wondering if maybe these weapons are a special case such as the Morai gear which was quite epic in PvE when it first came out. Seeing as it talks about sea wraiths and an underwater setting it could as well be special weapons used for said wraiths or whatever.

Otherwise it could just be the...gasp...R10 or R9 4th cast or something alike.
Maybe it's a Nirvana recast and shortly after that we'll get R10 (seeing as they usually release good gear only to have it become obsolete after, see Morai gear followed by the NW release, see Nirvana 3rd cast followed by R9r3 becoming cheap etc.)

Interesting.

I'm actually not opposed to a warsoul weapon having more raw power than r9 for a ratehr simple reason. If it removed GoF and Purify from the warsouls but kept then on the r9 while giving warsoul more attack levels, then not only would warsoul be worth getting, but it would also make it so casters could be crowd controlled once again provided they used that, and if they didn't then they'd be lacking in their potential attack power that, let's say a BM, can now take them down easier with pole skills (like farstrike) and get some better kills with sword skills (Myriad Sword Stance).

It would also make it so the Blademaster becomes viable as a crowd controller again. Archers would trade off purge and start getting more damage, which is good for archers that don't rely on purge or that run with venos all the time. Sins would get no real benefit. Barbs probably wouldn't use it, but I would on my barb. The only time a barb really needs GoF is on Arma, unless they are a str build, but at the same time, GoF helps anyway when you fight LA and AA classes.

For the most part I think the super hard CS casters would use both, carry a puri weapon for when you get under fire, carry a warsoul for surprise attacks.

But I don't think warsoul is getting an upgrade. Kind of funny how it sued to be considered the strongest weapons ever, then the new developers came into the picture. "Nah, bro, rank 9."

As far as comments on the new races, I do slightly hope it's true. I'd be curious to play a ghost.

If PvP gets re-balanced to make it so BMs can be viable crowd controllers again that would be fantastic. With Purify Spell and sins TP, a BM can only truly stun Barbs, BMs, Seekers, and Archers, but archers have a range advantage and can anti-stun themselves for a ridiculous amount of time, especially if they use a vac. Seekers also have a range advantage and the attack to back it, plus their defense. So a BMs only true advantage is over the barb and other BMs, then we have HF. I strongly hope we can get the possibility to crowd control better like we used to.

I've quit this game but I'll keep my eye out, this expansion might bring me back, at the very least as a new class.

It's hard to say.
For one, I don't know how well Archosaur Studios has kept together over the years.
I don't know if it's the same team, if few people dropped out, or if it's mostly or all new people.

Even if it's the same people, I don't know if Wanmei would allow them to finish what they should've have done ten years ago. Arch could've been working on this expansion for a year, they could've been working on it for a couple of months.
Wanmei could be forcing them to do what they want them to do and trying to build up hype that this expansion isn't being done by interns.

Just hope for the best and expect the worst...

That's how I feel about it also.

I have some hope for this, but in the end you have to realize that it is Wanmei in charge, and if Wanmei likes the direction in which this game is going then they will keep it that way. Archosaur Studios can only do what they are allowed to do.

PETS UPDATE:

Big news for venos, it is said that pets gonna be able to be combined

FUUUUSSIOOON!!!!

All I see is a picture though, do you have any sources?

Not sure if I'd really want a pet fusion O.o rather they add more evolve-able pets or something. I can't complain though, I'm already happy with the pets.

Another BM that wants nothing more than to be a sin. Reroll.

what source u need? it has pw's logo and its the monkey created a few months ago O.o

You can't just go by the art lol most of the time they show things that look cool for the sake of being cool and it doesn't reflect what the game actually has or what the game actually gets in the updates.

I do. I wanna see my wife's big fat Herc (or Galactic Monstrosity or whatever they call the evolved version) rocketing across the sky with little bird wings attached to his back.

don't act like the original developers are the Messiah.
They messed up alot of stuff too. E.g. PVP side was messed up from very beginning, think about nix-venos. And alot of farmable scores did take way too much time, e.g. helmet of holy punishment. Or rank6+ weapon/gear. Maybe ten ppl around the world want to "work" a few hours per day for just one aim within one year, most likely ppl with autism issues.

-agree!

And one of the main problems imo are that most people don't like to play this game as it was intended: all classes have different jobs. That's the game. All classes have different jobs.

In a sense, but all classes are dd; and all are capable of tanking. -That is fine with me.

Remember 1st year of pwi - exactly no one wanted a wizzard or bm in a squad. There was just no need for them (I liked bms for buffs, thats it lol). Venos were only wanted in pve when they had a herc.

To me: BMs are about as useless now, and venos w/o hercs in PvE should be scrutinized. Makes me laugh to myself when someone thinks we need a BM for BH RB; even non aps BM dmg kinda sucks at AoE! Veno still lose a lot of usefulness w/o a herc.

And btw, we all don't know why the developers which continued to work on this game failed that often.

Failed at what? They slowly rendered aps out of the picture despite many die-hards. They made our gear upgradeable, they introduced some kick-*** classes that don't render the old obsolete.
