    Hey everyone,

    Tonight is the special night! The download will be extra chunky today, as we are updating the game with the New Horizons expansion. We expect the process to take double the usual maintenance length, our estimate is:

    11pm PST - 5am PST

    As always, we want the maintenance to go smoothly so that we can release the content to you as soon as possible.

    As we near release, this thread will be updated with the patch notes as well as the events you can expect to have fun with!

    This week's maintenance question:

    What type of fashion weapons would you like to see?

    *Reawakening: By returning to level 1 and consolidating your power, you can permanently raise your stats. Reawakening unlocks an experience boost, a new questline, and the new Primal World zone.

    *New zone: The Primal World. Journey to the ancient land abandoned by Pan Gu, to fight new enemies and gain new rewards!

    *Historical Advancement: Advance the story through serverwide progression, completing quests to unlock new areas and quests.

    *War Avatar: Collect cards based on famous friends and foes of Perfect World to boost your stats!

    *Place of Origination: A new starting zone for new characters. Make your way from the Primal World to Perfect World with an exciting new series of quests!

    *All skill tooltips have been rewritten for clarity, consistency, and accuracy. Skill functionality has not been changed.

    Kinda sad how we get so little information when huge updates like this come out. Its very frustrating that we receive better information by translating the posts from the cn version.

    Just pointing out a random fact here....

    End game restat stones are now pretty much useless. It was the norm to build a sin as a vit build until end game then restat pure dex, however now once you reach end game you can just rebirth and all stats reset from what I can understand. So maybe this will create more diversity such as first time through (survivability) build then second time/final build now that restat stones aren't needed.
    as-sas-sin
    /əˈsasin/
    n.
    1. One who murders by surprise attack, especially one who carries out a plot to kill a prominent person.
    synonyms: murderer, killer, gunman, executioner, informalhitman, hired gun.
    Latin assassnus; Greek δολοφόνος
