Agreed. I'd also add on the point about small/medium sized guilds to PLEASE take a look at trials difficulty for our version of the game. As it stands, only 4 factions on Tideswell (used to be only 2 - but 2 factions have recently been formed/strengthened enough to do them) can fully go to Trial 10. My faction can get 20…

I hear ya. I submitted a ticket for this on 7 Feb. and got a reply on 11 Feb. with the standard "sorry for the delays" but it "should happen" within a couple weeks. Welp... that's come and gone. It's delaying a lot of stuff for my faction and seriously annoying us (and everyone else I know).

I submitted a ticket back on the 7th of this month asking about tw/xtw/arigora season resets/rewards. I received a reply on the 11th saying the following: "Thank you for your report about the TW seasonal rewards. We do apologize for any delays. Unfortunately, there are no updates for those rewards yet, but we do plan on…

Barbs are always needed on my server (Tideswell). Especially in my faction, we have a huge barb shortage. edit: the guy/gal below me speaks truth though sadly...

The biggest problem with PWI is that PWE has practically zero say in the game's direction for it's audience. So ideas like this (great idea btw) will likely never be considered for development. So many problems, zero solutions. That's the real problem. That said, in an ideal situation, this would be a great step in the…

Like what was said above, most content that is at all interesting is for level 100/RB2+ - perhaps with the exception of Morai, the quests and whatnot in there are kinda fun if you're new to them (level 85+ for Morai). If you want to be able to do endgame PVE instances without spending RL money, as copy1 said, consider…

A lot depends on what you want to do in game. If you're at all interested in pvp - xNW/TW/xTW/ etc., spending real cash is a major barrier for entry unless you want to spend massive amounts of time farming money. If you're cool with not having that be a focus for now - I'd consider farming up a DPH set for yourself as well…

Thanks Sunny. I really do appreciate you making an appearance here and even just updating us on the status of some of these issues. Lack of communication since Kalyst left has been rough, so I'm grateful you're taking the time to come talk to us! An actual response here from the devs on our biggest concerns would really be…

No idea why you feel the need to call out people for offering feedback. Sunny did not say give feedback on the current expansion ONLY. He said to reply based on our "recent experience with the game." Yes, the questions he used as examples pertain to the expansion, but given the broadness of "recent experience" - I think a…

I feel this way as well. I understand that this game has a free-to-play business model and every business needs to make money. But when every major update just feels like it has a massive cash grab element to it without giving us any decent content in return it feels pretty sad. Even these new classes that CN is getting -…

I can only speak for Tideswell server, but it's much quieter than it was last year at this time. I believe a lot of people quit the game after the update in early 2018 that revamped faction bases and changed Arc logins/removed force log abilities. I think more people left once xTW became focused on dragon rushes. Imo I can…

No one is debating CRUSH's strength versus Dynasty. It's clear that Dynasty has more raw strength than we do. However, that does NOT mean that we didn't work hard during the TW season. There was no great conspiracy or "tempest plan" as you say - Tempest's decisions about where they went on the TW map were their own. Our…

Hi Kalyst, Much like Eir, I barely play these days aside from helping my faction in TW when needed, but I did want to leave a quick note here to say thank you for your great work on behalf of the community. It couldn't have been easy delivering some of the bad news you had to deliver or realizing that you couldn't give the…

Just curious since signups on this closed almost a month ago and I've not seen a peep about it... did this idea die, or is it still in the works?

It really depends on your definition of fun. If you just want to reconnect with old friends, hang out and chat, while having a goal to slowly improve your toon, then sure, it can be fun. But if you want to be able to do TW/xNW/xTW and be effective, be ready for massive disappointment if you don't cash (or aren't willing to…

I also never received base compensation. I was nowhere near your friend's level. I had maybe 150k in merit, and unsure on contribution, but I know I hadn't spent all of it and surely had quite a lot still. I haven't bothered sending in a ticket because I know I'll either get a standardized gtfo reply or they'll tell me I'm…

Kalyst has a new position at PWE as of March 2018 per her LinkedIn. Looks like it's a promotion/step up based on the title change too. Appears as though she still works with the PWI title primarily though.

Obielle's right on this. You don't need the full delta run to try this, but if you can't get the boss to spawn yourself, you would need someone else who's at the same stage to talk to the pillars and spawn the boss for you. This quest has caused issues for numerous faction members of mine over the many years I've helped…

I know from experience this part of the culti can get very glitchy if it's not done right, so hopefully that's not the case with yours. Try going into delta without starting full delta. Go in with some players to help kill the Celeslord, and run straight into the blue portal to Happy Valley. See if it will let you talk to…

There's a couple of parts at this stage of the culti - killing the final bosses in full delta, in Valley of Reciprocity. These are the bosses that spawn after all the waves of mobs. It sounds as though you completed this part. After those bosses die, you should head back to where you spawned in, and run into the portal to…

Hi there - yes they added Celestial Vale some time ago and it replaced the old spawn-in spots for new characters in their racial villages. This was a horrible mistake imo, I don't care for Celestial Vale at all. Basically there's a bunch of quests to do in Heroes' Terrace and the rest of the CV map until you get to your…

Kalyst has already commented on this at a few different points. The below quote is from February 5 (and to my knowledge, is the most comprehensive reply she's given on the issue), and cites an email she had directly with CN. From the sounds of that reply, it doesn't look like anything's changing in base structure or…

Just chiming in here that this is indeed ridiculously wrong. I'm boycotting charging anything to this game anymore but I showed the list to my husband in game and he died laughing. It shows him as getting about 10 times as many tokens as he should be listed for on Tideswell. /smh pwi.

I think the idea persists for a few reasons. While no, I doubt they're trying to shrink their playerbase per se, I do believe they are employing some strategies to drive certain metrics. Obviously I'm speculating a lot on their motives (but a lot of this just feels true), but being free-to-play as they are, there's going…

10/10 would ride, rofl.

Agreed, I'd never seen that thing from the previous contest... looks like that genetic experiment from the movie Splice. *shudder*

I'm not going to point fingers at Tempest as obviously the state of affairs is not their fault in the slightest. It is true, however, that my faction has lost members to them much like @baysidebutterfly has, and to Dynasty, since this latest update debacle. My faction has done well and been happy on the server for years…

Don't do it! Run away while you still can! D:

This is such a strange poll to put up right now. I like greenfire's reply and perspective on gear -- and using those old school elemental damage shards is just awesome -- I well remember when that was a popular thing to do for physical classes. But really, why are we talking about gear like it's a choice? Unless you're…
