Forsaken World 2 Changes

Forsaken World 2 is said to be launching tomorrow night!

Update 02/03/15: According to the FW Mod, we are being pushed out until Monday 2/9/15.

O.O !!!!!!!!


A little nervous about these changes, but here are some of the things that we may expect from Forsaken World 2:

New Race:
-- well, we already knew this. Demon. And it has it's own class - Tormenter, which focuses on dot rather than just straight dps.



Areas of the map will become inaccessible:
All of Kalaires, Sea of Oblivion, Lunagrant, Gloomy Forest, Hazed Wilderness

It is highly recommended that you move all characters that may load into these areas. Move them to Nightfall and reset their town portal to Nightfall.

Finish your achievements that are in these areas..
Visit the Treasure seeker in Hazed Wilderness for your 10 trade gold.
Trade all your NC tokens for gold.
Get your wheel of tracing from Morin in SoO.
Get your rewards from Masha.


All current starter zones are gone -- not sure if this actually includes the fairly new lycan starter.

BUT, we will be getting new starter zones.

No more FR, EC or AoS! T.T how will I get my glory now? They didn't mention the fissures other than SoL would give more exp.

There will be a new level 30 instance to replace those instances, and LLH will become a lv40 instance.


Instance changes:
A lv85 and a lv90 instance are coming with gear drops!

I can't tell what is going on with NC - but it looks like it may only be available once per week - Tuesdays. :(
But we gain some extra time on FK -- it will be open at noon on Mondays.
GFC will only be open on Wednesdays, I think. :(
But will gain 2 days on wota -- not sure which days these will be.


Some new pvp stuff, with a new battleground instance, and some changes to the FF schedule.

HR goes down to once per week, but the pts will double so no loss of pts unless you miss altogether.
New floors will open up and we will get gift boxes after every 10 floors.
People who advance to the new floors can collect new roses to further upgrade their Aryshi.

Gear and stat changes:
Fortification of higher level, uncrafted rings and necks to add gems like the gear.

New gem system (sounds similar to the fusion gem system) to add stats to gear such as PVE intensity and HE.

Reduction in fortifying and fortify transfer of gear.

Changes in gloop and arena that I really don't understand. The only thing I did understand is that your 6v6 and 3v3 rankings will no longer affect each other.

And there will be some changes to the classes/skills as usual.


Extra cool stuff:
Purple pets!! Pets with rating of 6500+ can be upgraded.
And we will be able to bind a second skill of same level if there are enough slots opened.

Realm swapping via minimap.

Mount bag!! STORAGE!!
And a random mount skill, lol.

Wing fashion so you can change the look of your wings. Looks like wings will no longer be tied to class -- so if you want a steampunk elf, go for it!

New luck quest system.


This, of course, does not include all the info in the patch notes, but we will find out all soon enough. :S
