[edit] Characters

===Wuxia (Warrior)=== - - Wuxias are closed combat warriors who are potent with or without weapons. They are swift, agile and quick to attack and evade assailants. Wuxias as swordsmen weight themselves on chivalry and the mastery of the different fighting arts through continuous practice and training.They are balanced both on attacking and defending enemies, plus their solid grasp of the different kinds of weapons, superior physical attack and fighting arts makes the deadly combination of power and speed makes the Wuxias a formidable foe to contend with.

Fashi (Mage) - Fashi’s are hot tempered but warm hearted masters of the conjuring arts. They can utilize the elements of water, fire and earth to their advantage. To maximize the elements of nature, Fashis are required to be immersed in a state of mystical meditation to be effective when attacking. During this state, the defense capability of Fashi’s are crippled but once conjuring is in effect, they can deal a great amount of long range damage to enemies. To the Fashi, the adage: “The best defense is always the best offense” seems to be appropriate. Aside from this, Fashi’s can absorb skills while developing their own skills as they level up.

[edit] Territorial Battles

The game divides the whole 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.

[edit] High detail character customization

The game allows players to customize character features from head to toe. Every detail of the human body: hair style and color, facial features such as distance of the eyes, shape of the brows, body shape, skin color, torso size, width of limbs, etc., can be customized using a unique slider system that offers full control to the user. Using this customization system makes each character unique.

[edit] Battle in Land, Sea and Air

Each character and class in Perfect World has the special ability and peripherals to fly, trek, and swim in different terrains. Inherent attributes, special equipments, summons or even mountable animals 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.
