It has been posted for while, but I don't see any people who regularly update even mention this.

Basically, you can sell your character for gold and others people can use real money to buy gold and get max internal and max meridian character. Of course the higher levels for your internals and skills, the more expensive the characters will get.

Any new players just join the game, if they just cash in for couple thousands of dollars can get instant highest level characters with all the best skills and stuffs in Day1.

Not to mention if your account get hack, forget about losing items and money, you will not even see your character and you can probably check it on character trading market for some cheap price.

 

Now you know more about future features in this game.

    Regardless, I hope the feature stays far away from the EU version.

    Feel free to use my referral link for SW:TOR if you want to test out the game. You'll get some special unlocks!

    people still telling this lie? Ridiculously silly lie. just saw OP's name. He's still telling this one..

    What's the actual system. To be clear, I'm not saying I think you're wrong, rather I am asking you how it really works because I do not know.

    It works like EVE, in that skills are leveled over time. Over your time playing you'll gain XP. This XP is converted slowly over time into cultivation. Cultivation over time goes into the skill of your choice. A mid level skill takes about 24 hours to cultivate. With in game cash you can speed up the cultivation process significantly, you can not speed up XP conversion in any meaningful way though. 

     

    A new player starts with 0 xp, and 0 cultivation. To give an example, I'm currently cultivating a skill that 200k cultivation. It would take a new player several days convert XP into 200k cultivation once they get the XP, even then this is only one skill out of 10 or so a new player will start with. 

     

    It's just not possible. There is a reason why a toon like my own would sell for 2k$, months and months of work and planning.

     

    edit- I've probably used 15-20 million cultivation over the 7 months I've been playing.

    OP seemed to be about buying, selling, trading of characters or accounts, is that true or not?

    Age of Wushu getting new factions and character trading in China

    by Eliot Lefebvre image on Jun 23rd 2013 11:00AM

    FantasyHistoricalPatchesPreviewsNews ItemsFree-to-PlayAge of Wushu

    Price tag coming soon, apparently.

     

    While you can't be certain about the future of a game in your country based on what happens in its native country, that's certainly the way to bet. So the good news is that Age of Wushu players can look forward to some neat stuff in the future, including new factions and schools. A recent preview highlights the Villa of the Beasts, a school deep in the wilds that focuses on hand-to-hand combat in nature. There are even rumors that the school will eventually allow for pet companions.

    The game is experimenting with a character trading service, allowing you to directly list characters for sale without having to sell your entire account and risk hacking. Whether or not the service on a whole is a good thing for the health of the game is an exercise for the reader. There's no timetable for any of this coming over to the game in the West, but in all likelihood it's just a matter of time.

    [Thanks to Dengar for the tip!]

    [mod edit]

    Everything I said so far is related to character trading. It means even if you join on the first day, you can go on character trading market and buy the highest levels and meridians you could find. There are a few games with this type of market and most of them end up with the one that has the most money to buy the most expensive character.

    As for your reply on your misunderstood of what being discuss. You are a liar or lack knowledge of what is currently possible, there is a prayer event again where you can pray to get 200k culv pills and there are plenty of inner 1, inner 2, inner 3 along with cheap certs for sale on the market. So it is POSSIBLE to pour thousands of dollars and get lv 36 3rd inner on Day1. However, that is not what is being discussed here since you like to jump into topic without actually reading and understanding it first.

     

    [mod edit]

    Again, there are few games out there with character trading market and what I said is from my experiences with those games. However, you like to tell people that they are wrong, then have no details at all. Are you trolling again?

    [mod edit]

     

    Edit: I also like to include from my personal experience in game from a guild member who spent 700+ dollars on prayer event. He starts a couple week ago and before prayer event, he only has around 100k cultivation. Now he has over 10 millions cultivation from using 200k cultivation pills and already lv 22 on his 3rd inner. He ask help from guild members to do quest for him and bought lv 31+ 3rd inner from school chat. Everyday, you can see him on Blue Dragon shouting to sell permanent dress for 2.5D or sell CS skills or Horse.

    I know how leveling works. I'm asking how the highlighted line is a lie. What's different about character transfers in AoW that they wouldn't be able to get such a character?

    For example, you just said that your character would sell for over $2000.  When a new player buys it, what is stripped from it so that they don't have everything yuo've trained and gained?

    What he is speaking of has just been released on China server. What he is saying can not be done here. Either he is intentional being misleading in his OP, or intentionally omitted important info. What he has said is true for China, but not for NA.

     

    Character transfers are nothing new to the mmorpg community. I'm personally against it. It looks like in China instead of purchases from a 3rd party site, you can list and purchase with snail. 

     

    I do not know, but I do not think that the character would be stripped. The thing is in Wushu, there is nothing "stronger" than the first set you are given from you school. Everything else is flavor and play style. There are no "best skills".

    Let's see here, you keep posting about future features that will come to the US and I am doing the same thing, but that is wrong for me?

    Let's look at Age of Wushu from SnailUSA, it is the same patches, the same updates, everything CN server got before, we got exactly like that from their patches history and you telling me that I am wrong despite 8 months of updates to prove for it?

    I never said it is in the US version right now, I am saying it is a feature in CN that we will eventually get just like how you did with everything else.

    Yes, you are misleading it again. I never said it is from 3rd party sites, I am saying that if you get hack, hackers can list your character on the market for sell as well, they already did with GOLD, LIANG, everything valuable on your account, what is to prevent them from listing your character or transfer it to one of their temp account?

    As for your last statement? Are you freaking trying to treat people like idiot? Ancient Taiji Fist Rage is still as insanely expensive up to 100 Ding and most sought after along with others ancient skills. Jianghu skills always easier and really strong to use like Cruel 7 and Spin2Win version2 from Sunset skillset and more. There are Jianghu internals that is clearly even stronger than ours 4th inners that will come US in 6 months to a year. Not to mention Star Absorbing and SunFlower internal that considered to be the most powerful internals in this game and MORE.

    Again, I am not sure, but you are intentionally lying again and again to make your points. You didn't even go into details and you keep telling others that they are wrong while showing nothing. Your post histories prove that over and over again.

    Another F2P mmo has this character selling feature. Rohan Online, and its horrible. Specially since wushu revolves around pvp. I hope this doesnt come to the US. If it does, ill never play it again. Being able to buy OP characters with real money is just garbage from every angle. WHich is sad because i really like AoW.

    Tell me about it. I remember when AoW first come out in CBT2 8 months ago, I ask in forum if it will be the same with CN version and GM said it won't be the same with CS skills and they will do things different.

    Fast forward 8 months later, they lied. Everything is the same, Everything is just straight port so far and we are actually getting everything based on the updates CN version got. That also include bugs/errors and exploit as well.

    SnailUSA is just for management side of the game, every features and everything else is managed by the main team from Snail HQ. This is why some errors or something wrong with the game took too long to get it fix since they have to contact Snail HQ, then wait and get back here.

    So with that kind of records and history, the chance of character trading to be on the US version is really high. Not sure about Age of Wulin, but we will have to wait and see how they will updates their version.

    I didn't know you could reply to your own post and make multiple posts to spam the forum. So anyone looking forward to this feature?

    Why so little people talk or reply about this topic since it is such a big change on the way you play the game or spend time + money on it.
