  • I was also forced to vote for 1/5, due to lack of 0/5 option. I guess the only thing that would keep it from being 0/5 in any event would be that the event seems to actually function, or so the rumors go. Luckily I only wasted 100k and one angel before realizing this event was just a waste of time. Still trying to figure…
  • Yup, blademaster as a matter of fact. Gets really irritating when I need to find mobs not gathered into doom squads and seeing some of those little energizer bunny venos in the area. "Great, guess I'm not getting anything done here for a few hours." And no, squadding generally is not an option, due to the 80% Drops…
  • Yeah, I hate that oh-wait-it-gets-one-more-attack garbage too. b:angry Given the frequency with which it seems to become an issue, it almost seems like a "wait, we haven't ticked your hp hiero yet!" scam.
  • Yeah, I'm not very familiar with the intricacies of various upload sites, so I wouldn't know if some people tend to have trouble with certain sites or not, so your ongoing help may still be very critical. Thanks for thinking of those of us having trouble with the updates. :)
  • rayearth posted a link to some of the patches in this thread: http://pwi-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=27121&page=59 Last post on the page. The link within the page is: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=APAUEDAH I just tried to update using 8-13 contained therein and it worked. :) I hope you don't take any offense at…
  • Sweet that you actually got it to work. You wouldn't happen to have the ability to upload the manual patch to rapidshare or something like that, so those of us who just hit brick walls just trying to download the stupid thing can see if it works?
  • Ok, let's try a different tack. Has anybody actually managed to successfully download a working copy of the manual patch? If so, could you be kind enough to upload it to a hosting site yourself and give the rest of us a link? I checked the IP that my browser connects to to try downloading the patch; it pings fine, it…
  • If only I could manage something like that. The patcher here seems pretty well committed to the cause of being non-functional. I must have restarted the stupid thing a hundred times. It's starting to look like I'm just done with this game, and not by choice.
  • Wonder if there's any chance of getting the patch mirrored or something. As fascinating as all this hassle is, I would much rather be playing the game.
  • Wrong thread, sorry. Edit: Actually, since I have a post here anyway, is there a chance of mirroring the patch or something? Downloading the manual patch seems to be just as impossible as auto-patching. Furthest I've seen it get to this point is something like 17.3M out of 30.9M and then it just declares itself finished.
  • No, I'm not talking about the automatic patcher. I'm talking about the manual patch that's hosted in the download area of the site. Never gets anywhere.
  • If they don't drop antennas then how did I chance upon, I think going on 23 antennas now? Sometimes dropped along with grease. I've only had the chance to kill one of those big spider things so far--just a little too level-appropriate at the time. :p Thanks for the tip though.

  • I've seen it when I saw a friend playing one of the Malaysian servers. That was crazy--like a sea of Hello Kitties. :eek:
  • Cool, I'll have to look for the auctioneer(s) next time I'm on. Thanks for the help. :) Probably not high enough level to be wandering around Ankylosaur just yet though. :D
  • I see. And where might one find this auction house? I don't believe I've ever run into it. Thanks. :) Darknin: Press E to bring up the action menu, then under the Trade options you should see a "consignment shop" option. I'm not sure if there's a quick key for it though.
  • I had some success last night gathering grease with my human character from farming those "dumb kuhu" and "ecstatic kuhu" things, or whatever they're called (I have trouble keeping the names straight). They're level 14 and 15 respectively, in case level is an issue. I don't know the exact percentages, but I ended up with…

  • I started to figure the banker's quest was rather long-term when my guess about those little rhino-things (you know, the things around Swarm Hill or whatever it's called--I have a tough time keeping the creature names straight :p) dropping items for it turned out to be a dead end. I doubt I'm going to make 30 before the…
  • Oh yeah, that banker's quest is bugging the **** outta me. :D I still haven't run into about half the things he needs, but I have an overabundance of one particular item he wants. And I've also run into a couple of those Dragon Quest-related items. Thanks for the help there. Hopefully once the international version gets…
  • Just confiming that hopethishelps.zip did indeed help me out as well. Thanks for posting that. Now I can get on to being completely mystified by the controls and poking around aimlessly. :D Totally new to MMO's of any kind and thought I would give it a spin with Perfect World, and maybe help squish some bugs in the…
  • This was the first time the update moved past elements.data for me, so it certainly seemed noteworthy at the time. ;) But if tasks.data is as solid a barrier as you suggest, then maybe it was as small a victory as I was fearing. I would attempt to reinstall and then just try the whole thing over again with elements and…
  • I only had partial success with the file deletion method. Elements.data did update after i moved the file out, but then it just snagged on tasks.data. I tried moving that out but the update just freezes on that.
