The Story Behind The Game
The game’s background story is spawned by the rich traditions and myths of ancient China. It is anchored on the legend of the god Pangu, “the Creator” and the Elements that the other gods fashioned into a new world called the ‘Perfect World’. In this new world, three races vie for control of the epic and mystical realms; the Humans, Wings, and Werebeasts.
Initially, each race has 2 particular job classes:
Human Race: Swordsman (WuXia), warriors who excels in strong physical attacks and Element-Mage (FaShi) conjurers of powerful magic for the Humans;
Wings Race: Archers (YuMang) stealth elfin-like creatures who fire deadly arrows and Priests (YuMang) mystical protectors and trustworthy allies;
Werebeast Race: Werebeast (YaShou) behemoth lycanthropes who can transfigure to powerful beasts at will and WereFox (Yaoling) summoners of mighty creatures to aid them in battle.
In addition, characters can choose to join the ranks of Heaven (Xian) or Hell (Mo) and fulfill specific roles.
Territorial Battles
The game divides the terrain into smaller domains and has a built-in territorial battle system where clans and factions can build, arm and fortify a city or multiple establishments at the same time. Fortify the captured city with catapults and armaments to effectively guard your location against opposing attackers who are keen on expanding their territory.
Battle in Land, Sea and Air!
All characters and classes in Perfect World have either inherent attributes, special equipments, summons or even mountable animals that make it possible for characters to not only fly, trek and swim but also to duel and clash on any of the terrain. Perfect World created a world with flying monsters and floating cities and ruins, all waiting to be explored.
