Hello Evolved Community,
It may have took a while, but we can assure you, that the quality we will provide, especially in terms of the code, functionality and optimization will surpass the official content. You may not see the small details, and graphical optimizations, the polished methods to execute certain skills and the fluent progression combined with the multi-core engine, but it certain took its time.
The length of the Patch Notes will speak for itself. Lets not waste any time and jump right into it.
Patch Version 17.0.0
Western Steppes - Continent
Neverfall will introduce an entire continent to explore, displayed below:
Within the Western Steppes you will find the following key additions, which are completely new:
We will try to break down each of the key points individually, before we progress to the actual patch Notes.
Note: We have made our own progression curve within these key points, due to removal of unnecessary additions like new boundaries, endless story quest lines and so on.
In order to access the new continent, you will need to be at least Sky Mirage I and Level 100+ as well as Reawakened twice. These conditions will lead to having a pop up quest:
From there you should be able to progress until you receive the Neverfall Ticket. Once you unlock this Area, it will be available for you within the World Teleport menu and accessible via Perfect Teleport Stone and co.
Evolved Guide: Entering Neverfall
You will also find 3 New daily quests in Neverfall:
You will also find 1 New weekely quest in Neverfall:
In order to progress in your Cultivation, you will require either Celestial Demon or Celestial Sage, you must also be in Western Steppes. Once you met these conditions, the Chaotic Soul quest Chain will pop up and will let you progress.
This Cultivation will reveal the first Sanctified Skills, a combination of Demon and Sage powers!
These skills are important for the Glyph System, but more about that within the Sanctified section of the Patch Notes.
The Chaotic Soul Cultivation chain was turned more compact and won't require any endless Storyline Questchain but will still reward you with the equal amount of Neverfall Squire's Badges that you would receive by doing the extremely long Story Questchain.
Evolved Guide: Chaotic Soul Guide
Requirements: Rebirth 2, Celestial Demon/Sage, Shifting Sky 1
The last cultivation, which will unlock all your powers in form of Sanctified Skills is called: Celestial Saint. Its the Cultivation chain, that will follow Chaotic Soul and will require the cultivation status: Chaotic Soul. You will progress within the parameters of the Cultivation in Western Steppes.
This cultivation is also shortened and won't require any side Quests, to unlock certain areas or unnecessary Questing just to get the same result.
This cultivation chain will reveal all Sanctified skills and will reward you once again with a proper amount of: Neverfall Squire's Badges
Evolved Guide: Celestial Saint Guide
Requirements: Rebirth 2, Chaotic Soul, Shifting Sky X
These skills are of crucial importance for the Glyph system, which will allow you forging your own unique playstyle, by adding various unlock-able options to your skills using Glyph stones.
Not all skills can be glyphed. Only the Sanctified skill versions of every classes skill can have Glyph stones imbued. In order to unlock Sanctified Skills, you must enhance your cultivation status to least Chaotic Soul or Celestial Saint. These cultivations will reveal the new skills. In order to learn them you must farm: Sanctified Tome I-X items which are available at Royal Knight Hector NPC: availble in Nervefall (Western Steppes).
Use your Neverfall Squire's Badges to craft Sanctified Tomes.
The Glyph system is our main addition, which this patch is based on.
It will unlock various features for your skills, which can be modified by adding different Glyph stones into the Glyph slot of your Sanctified skill. Different Glyph Stones will cause different changes to your skills. It will introduce a completely new way of playing each known class and grant unique possibilities to the user.
You may access the Glyph menu from your Skill menu, clicking on the Glyph tab icon at the side. In order to operate on the Glyph menu your Character must meet the following requirements:

The transmutation system was re-worked to function as a recycling system for overfarmed mats.
The Transmutation system will introduce 2 new items:
You will be able to drag items, you may not need anymore into the Transmutation System. These items will individually add points to the menu, when you reached a certain score it will allow you to roll for a new item, that may have bigger rarity of all the items previously consumed.
We have included items dropped from all endgame Dungeons (Molten Mines, Undiscovered Dungeon...) which will increase the runs and squad formations for all these Dungeons, even by players that already have their items maxed out.
You may also obtain a Glyph pack if you are lucky!
The functionality is similar to the official version, the items are different. For more information, check out the official Guide:
Access the menu from Transmutation Master Xolo in south Archosaur - 555, 625
You can now preview the upcoming/casted skills of your enemys. This sytem is introduced to Perfect World for the first time, and will in combination with the Glyph system completely change the experience you make during combat!
This video is a presentation of what it looks like during a Character selection.
We've changed the visual representation of digging mines as shown below:
This feature is mostly just for aesthetic purposes and will grant no actual benefit.
The Treasure system was re-worked and adapted to our standards, it will contain various mats already known by all our packs and over time maybe introduce new items.
Unlike the official game, we have decided to keep both:
Compared to the official game, you may use the Treasure system with Event Gold, as the Keys required for a spin will be available in Event Shop too!
Both of these system for your lucky draw will be available in both shops. You wanted more use for your Event Gold? We have got the perfect system for you.

We have changed the Questing experience with a brand new Questing Menu, that will pop up whenever doing Main Quests and Cultivation Quests.
Its purely a visual feature, but will grant an unforgivable experience and bring fresh air into the game.
You may now select the amount of items you'd want to craft from your desired type as shown below:
This system will enable more comfort and overall a better, quicker and fluent experience when crafting items at an NPC.
The idea behind the system is to grant you flexibility and comfort, but also reduce the various newly added bulk versions of 1 and the same item, that will also cause the NPCs to become very over-viewable, more clean and compact.
