The 6th race for Perfect World’s Forsaken World, Wolf, will be added into the China server on 18th October later this month. The first new race since the game was launched a couple of years back, Wolf race (or Werewolf) has always been in the game as non-playable characters (NPCs) and part of the main storyline. Combining both speed and power, this cursed race is now seeking vengeance against those who condemned their humanity…
The male Wolf will only be able to play as the Assassin, while the female Wolf only as the Priest, which seems to be an odd decision. However, the glory of this new race is in its racial ability. They are able to transform into wolves for 15 seconds, which immediately removes all negative movement effects upon casting. In this form, players will also gain 15% increased casting speed. What’s more, casting more skills in will extend the 15 seconds limit. The artwork below shows the starting town for this new race.
I will most probably be logging into the game on that day to give the new race a spin, since it has really been a long time after I stopped playing once having 2 max level characters. There is of course no ETA for the English server as of now.
