A new vision of the 1.3.6 world
THE FIRST LIGHT CONCEPTFirst Light starts with the map and world of Perfect World 1.3.6. We want to make that world feel alive, with more variety, more places to explore and more things to do together. The familiar cities, homelands and cultivation journey are the foundation.
Later versions brought classes, skills and dungeons that can make this world richer. First Light brings those additions into the old world while leaving out systems such as War Avatar cards. It is a fresh look at what the 1.3.6 world can become, and how much more there can be to discover in it.
- Ⅰ New classes, familiar homelands
- All twelve classes belong to the three original races. Each begins at level 1 in its race’s original homeland, following the cultivation journey of the old world. Meet the three races below.
- Ⅱ More to explore and learn
- Morai, its skills and dungeons such as Endless Universe add new choices to the journey. Quests are the main path of progression. Phoenix Valley is an additional dungeon that also provides progress. Classic dungeons remain, alongside additions such as Nirvana and Quicksand Maze.
- Ⅲ Endgame worth working toward
- Nirvana equipment and R8R2 form the final equipment path. We are reworking how this gear is obtained to improve the journey toward it. Experience, spirit, drops and coins stay at x1, with quests at the heart of progression.
- Ⅳ A world for guilds
- Guild halls, Territory War and Nation War give clans places to gather and reasons to compete. Nation War starts from opening, twice a week, on a smaller map with fewer transitions. New clan events will bring fresh ways to play together.
- Ⅴ The classic journey stays
- The original map, quests and cultivation path remain at the heart of the game. Twilight Temple, Frostcover City, Lunar Glade, Cube of Fate and Valley of Reciprocity are all part of this world, with open-world PK enabled.
- Ⅵ Carefully chosen additions
- First Light leaves out War Avatar cards, reincarnation, meridians and Primal World. There will be no genies on First Light. Warsong City is also excluded. The focus is on more classes, skills, dungeons and shared activities within the world of 1.3.6.
Three races. A place for every class.
THE PEOPLE OF FIRST LIGHTHumans, Winged Elves and Untamed remain the three peoples of the 1.3.6 world. Each keeps its homeland and its identity. The newer classes become part of those peoples, with four paths to choose from in each race.
HUMANS · STEEL AND NATURE
Strength through skill and knowledge
Humans bring together the Blademaster’s martial skill and the Wizard’s elemental magic. The Seeker adds another path of swordsmanship, while the Mystic brings nature, summons and support into that tradition.
All four classes begin in the Human homeland. The new paths grow from the same starting lands and cultivation journey as the original classes.
- Original paths
- Blademaster · Wizard
- New paths
- Seeker · Mystic
WINGED ELVES · LIGHT, MOON AND STORM
Four paths beneath the same sky
The Archer and Cleric define the familiar Winged Elf tradition: precision at range, healing and protection. Duskblade and Stormbringer join them with swift blades, moonlight and storm magic.
These classes belong to the Winged Elves in First Light. Their journey begins in the original Winged Elf homeland, with the old world as their home.
- Original paths
- Archer · Cleric
- New paths
- Duskblade · Stormbringer
UNTAMED · INSTINCT AND SPIRIT
The hunter and the spirit
The Barbarian’s strength and the Venomancer’s bond with beasts form the heart of the Untamed. The Assassin adds the stealth and precision of a hunter. The Psychic brings soulforce and spiritual magic to the race.
Both new classes start alongside the original Untamed in their homeland. Hunting, beasts and spirits connect the four paths within the same world.
- Original paths
- Barbarian · Venomancer
- New paths

The 1.3.6 world as it was, plus a handful of later dungeons that fit it.
The world we want to build
FIRST LIGHT · 1.3.6+We love Perfect World 1.3.6 and its balance. First Light asks what this world could have become if the game had taken a different path after 1.3.6. Our challenge is to bring twelve classes into that world, with balance reworked around its classic foundations, and give players new adventures worth remembering.

The original 1.3.6 map
The original cities and homelands are the foundation. Tideborn, Earthguard and Nightshade cities and starting lands are absent. All twelve classes begin at level 1 in one of the three original homelands.
Three races. Twelve classes.
- Humans: Blademaster, Wizard, Seeker, Mystic.
- Winged Elves: Archer, Cleric, Duskblade, Stormbringer.
- Untamed: Barbarian, Venomancer, Assassin, Psychic.
Balance with a classic heart
We are reworking class balance around the spirit of 1.3.6. Later classes and content should fit that world and its progression. This is our vision of a twelve-class 1.3.6, shaped by our love for the original game.
A journey worth sharing
Quests are the main path of progression. Phoenix Valley adds dungeon progress. Improved Lunar Glade, Twilight Temple and Frostcover City bring familiar adventures into this new journey. Quicksand Maze is being redesigned for First Light.
