    It's too early to judge but so far I'm enjoying being a lower level again, re-visiting all areas, doing low level BHs and doing the new questline.

    The Primal World looks pretty cool too but I'm not sure if the quest line there is bugged considering the NPC asks you to do the 4th reawakening to continue, which, is not available. Only 2 reawakenings available as far as we know.

    I'm glad the quests provide you with some cards and you get to play around with the feature. I also like other little neat features like the improved auto-path (except the bugs that came with it).

    Things I don't like; the known bugs and the new skills - for now it's only a speculation on how some skills work but some upgrades look ridiculous while others are "meh" for some classes. I'll wait till people acquire the skills before making my own assessment though.

    For big updates like this one, it is always better to download the patch directly from the website instead of using the launcher.

    I downloaded the patch (~1.2 GB) in about 20 mins and took like 5~10 more to the game to be fully updated. b:victory

    To be honest I'm still confused on what to do, not to mention my eyes are bleeding trying to read the text on screen.

    I won't be trying the new stuff right away since vacation is near, however I will try to reincarnate my BM or cleric maybe around mid January.

    Well.. I'm a noob with several 8x and 9x toons.
    And to be completely honest, this update kinda ruined my reason to reach 100. I wanted to reach 100 so i could finally wear my nv3 gear and axes.
    However, this just ruined it for me. Because every time i get somewhat "close" to end game.. something gets added that puts a giant gap between me and the rest.
    Of course, this is just my point of view. If i had several 10x toons, my opinion would most likely be different as well.

    Also, i would like to point something out, which we may not be aware of. Most of the content (i'd like to say all, but I'm not fully aware of everything in this update yet) is only accessible once you're reincarnated. To do that, you have to be 100+.

    New players that hear about this game and its new expansion, will get excited. But it wont take them long to figure out that he needs to reach endgame, to just start over and do the whole way to endgame again. That isn't something i would call inviting. If anything, this will cause no new player gain.

    I, personally, was very excited over the new merge skills. But once i heard that these are only available after reincarnating, i got slightly depressed.

    Conclusion. I dont know what to think of this update. Right now, im rather sad. I just hope the game somehow becomes more attractive to me than it is right now.

    so far excellent, with surprisingly decent amount of problems (not heavy ones), but maybe too much of popups that fill the quest list and too many quest items that go into normal inventory (at least for my taste).


    the omg i have to level again qq is completely useless till 100, as the rate you get the xp on is huge (let's say that if you put your muscle into it you can get to 100 in less than 5h, without any xp pill).

    Had not time to check last update yet, but I think, that it is for levels 99+ at least.

    Nothing new for my level range.

    I really don't see any class with better "new skills" than wizards... And before that new expansion wizards were not the crappiest class anyway...

    Well, what i like is the new anniversary system. Its nice to receive gifts on every char you have, not only your main. Also no problems with codes etc... And i like the fact its lvl-depending, although i was a bit sad when i saw i got about 60 great things on my alt like tishas and when i log on my main, i get like 3 things while 2 of them being timed and are only really useful for selling things, nothing that improves gameplay itself. But anyway, these gifts are nice.

    And the new world is interesting, although i dont see much to do there yet if i dont plan to reawake.

    But somehow the new things like reawakening, skill fusions and Server-NW are discouraging me in playing the game. Too many new things, too many new quests and items you receive without knowing what it is good for and most of it is for 100+ again. Its pretty confusing. Not to mention that my quests slots are filled to 100% when i just log in, and in order to get rid of them i need to fill my banker and inventory what means i cant do anything till i buy another inventory/safe stone.

    I was against skill fusions since they told us about it, because i think there should be more skills for a class to use, not less.

    The card system is boring imo, but its nothing negative so i dont care.

    What i really hate about the new update is the fact that you start in this new world when you create a new char with a quest chain thats useless, your starting gear is class-restricted and the character creation and starting screen are just horrible . I hope they will change that back to old. Also the new UI whats just impractical.

    Afterall, the game seems to take over too many features of Jade Dyn. and Forsaken World . Ingame Botting system, annoying popups and icons everywhere and autotracking... Not really my thing =(

    But at least this was an update what was meant to be nice and positive for the players, and not a "Give us your money"-update again. So im fine with it. Maybe the game will change back to its old glory in the next months b:chuckle

    While glitches and bugs are bound to happen in each expansion/update... especially when it comes to pwe/pwi...

    I for one am actually pleasantly surprised at how few their actually seems to be in this expansion. for the most part everything seems to be running rather smoothly.

    One thing that is indeed annoying me is the horn box resetting over my squad list every time i minimize the screen to multi task... it so makes it hard to click on the squad members while on an healing class. (I just heard recently there is a way to disable the extra box... I so hope that is true... because I SO want to disable that ****. D:)
