The weekly instance reset is the same time to the new maintenance. But the daily reset, daeva pass reset and renown npc resets remain unchanged. I like the fact we get so much difference in the weekly and daily resets.

What about the quest we did a whole week and it didn't count the FEXP we should have gotten for Lethal Hymn? And what about Luna, we need luna back in the game.

Previously the daily reset was at 6am and the daily/weekly reset was at 9am (server times). There was a rare occasion that the maintenance would last less than 3 hours and we could log before the weekly reset taking advantage of the server's maintenance that reset all the entries on instances. If the maintenance is done on 10pm and lasts about 3 hours it will be on at about 2am, if the daily/weekly remains on 9am that is about 7 hours window for us to do everything.

Did they also change the daily reset hour? Because if not this means double weekly reset every week.

I think that was because of the first time they put the timer 1 year ahead tricking everyone into wasting a ton of resources, while some spent a lot of time doing it on alts too. Then they pulled the rug under our feet. This was the thread of complaints and then they came up with the compensation because of feedback. Initially they said they would compensate only those that did the relic the last 2 weeks (or so) because they didn't get enough juice out of it. But then after complaints they made it for everyone who completed 100, 200 and 300 stages in different reward amounts for each tier of completion. ~~~~~~ When the next relic came with a timer I made the same question and they cleared themselves out on the timer being fake thus to not trust it. So I think they do not owe us any compensation since they were clear from the beginning that the timer is a placebo.

Did they give the same compensation for this time too?

The good news is a corrupted item is still usable just not enchantable any more. The problem is the sanctification system and the formula that keeps demanding more and more potions and they are so hard to get whle the chance to get a corruption seems low, it happens more often than we anticipate. I would never even bother hoping to get an ultimate runestone. Totally our of reach items. The worst system is the gemstones, not only you have class based gemstones unlike runes that are general usage, you have tiers AND skills. I managed to buy from broker the gemstones I need for my class, enchanted them to the amount I could and left them like that. It is one of the worst systems they brought in 7.0.

So maintenance will be 10pm UTC Tuesday, in my country we are at UTC+3 at the moment (daylight savings), so it will be at 1 in the morning on Wednesday and will be up by 4am~5am This almost looks like they made it for us EU players lol.

I'd prefer they removed the io crystal from the nodes and give us 100% ionium. We can only get ionium from the nodes and io crystal is given by every quest and FS equipment extraction. Getting 1x~2x io crystal is so useless.

I personally have no problem at all for making the maintenance from Wednesday to Tuesday, but their explanation makes no sense. So Tuesday is faster than Wednesday, lets hope this solves all Aion problems!

This is exactly like Daeva Pass, there is a timer down that says until when the missions are available and the Pass always ends 3 days later. This is probably done to force people to buy the last steps if they haven't finished them.

Fair enough then, I didn't bother with alts with this event.

The only thing that gave good amount of coins, was the p2w shugo pass which cost a lot of money for average rewards. The free event is utter garbage.

Most people finished it the first week. What they need to do is get rid of it because it is an awful event.

Max is 20, most people do up to +10 because from +9 to +10 the chance is 33% so it is not THAT impossible. But after +10 the chance is too low to even bother. From +10 to +11 for example it already drops to 10% only.

There is a sanctification count (it is the amount of times you already got it contaminated AND sanctified it) The formula is like this: (Amount of Sanctification Potions Needed) = (Current Enchant Level) * (Sanctification Count + 1) ~~~ Example 1: The below item is corrupted, enchant level is 5 and hasn't been sanctified yet (sanctification count 0 times). Potions Needed = 5 (enchant level) * (0 sanctification +1) = 5 potions ~~~ Example 2: The below item is not corrupted yet but lets pretend it is. Potions that I would need = 4 (enchant level) * (2 sanctification count + 1) = 4 * 3 = 12 potions. ~~~ Example 3 (no image): If you got an item that is at enchant level 7, corrupted, and it already has 6 sanctification done already: Potions needed = 7 * (6 + 1) = 49 sanctification potions!!! ~~~ So the more times it gets corrupted, the more potions you need and the higher the enchant level is the more potions again. After some point it becomes useless to try to fix it, it will need so many potions that will be impossible to get so many.

We are all waiting for Throne and Liberty to come out, it looks promising and it is an NCSoft game so they will defo be the actual competition with their own titles. T&L looks promising as it doesn't have solid classes, you build your character the way you want and it will defo be with a better engine so hopefully more optimization. I wonder who on earth will go play Aion Classic in EU if T&R is out around the same time.

Yeah I wouldn't pay that much real money for these coins.

Especially hen we need to make an oath per season to finish the daeva pass. It is per character, but that also means you have to give 2000 luna per character to get the p2w event daeva pass because the normal one doesn't give you enough coins for this.

We need luna currency back in game.

The two new ultimates are acquirable via breaths + fragmetns, so now the chest will have Zikel, Nezekan and the two new ones. I am almost sure I will get another Zikel again lol, my lack the latest years dropped so low I keep getting the same rewards in many things.

The thing that made me not finish it is that the pet timer had +1 week than the event duration which gave me a false interpretation of the duration of the event. I made 25 silk and had enough food for almost one more, so almost 26. But then I saw the maintenance post and realized I have no more time left. I should have paid attention to the dates.

Amen! The best solution is to simply remove the kinah recipe from the luna craft and put the luna materials back to luna instance. We need luna to do a lot of things.

The rewards became obsolete by 8.0 already, but if they had it now it would have been a rather ok-ish way to make AP since the only way to make AP from an instance is Herelym Mine.

They need to put luna currency back into luna instance and remove the kinah recipe from the luna craft shop. Bots wont' bother with it, actual player will use it to gain luna for their main account.
