Pwi is so much better than this.. I have played it about 4 years and it has much more to offer. It takes way longer to farm 1 thing than it does a whole set here but Pwi is better in every way no offense.. but balanced pvp is no fun at all I cant stand not 1 hitting everyone. They really need to improve pvp in EPW alot who the heck wants balanced pvp lol and the auctioneer in EPW isnt useful I agree with you.
I was on PWI since Sep 2009.
There were so many reasons why I came here to stay.
Scam packs, deliberate time-waste gameplay settings,
cash shop prices 10-15 times higher than decent,
arrogance of 66% of the management (33% are very
respectable people, others just hide behind them), ...
The whole concept is even worse than poker machine,
you get much less than you pay, and if you don't pay
you got blackmailed to spend weeks on one-day task...
Did you try to level up your manufacturing skills?
Did you have to make farming alt just to be able to
spend 7 days instead of 21 gathering materials?
Did you think that those 7 days were "normal"?
In my opinion, you should be able to gather mats
for any "Step 2" (or even "Step 3") in one day.
Also, the "drop rate reduction with level difference"
is just plain sh*t.
I already have my job to do my share of hard work.
Most of people out there use games to relax,
not to get more tired and lose nerves.
I just mention the facts above to support my
"deliberate time-waste" statement.
You can't convince me that I was happier there. LOL
And I don't want to try to convince you that you should like this one more.
You have your own will and choice, go where you like, no hard feelings.

P.S.: You can be "cash elitist" and buy your R9 to 1-hit anyone,
except other "elitists". If you rely on dad's cash more than your
own skills then they will give you very hard time.
