  1. There's me and like one other guy on the Elyos side that have been carrying lowbies through campaign quests regularly. Sadly I have decided to take a break from the game but honestly helping low level players is way more fun and #feelgood than anything else going on. Perhaps if they introduced a mentoring system like days past it would help for people who need a monetary/item reward incentive. Also - every so often I would get a message from some random annoyed that I'm helping noobs. Cant wrap my head around why anyone would be mad about it but welcome to Aion I guess.
  2. Tbh matchmaking would be difficult to implement when the player population is so low. You will go from making half the AP to no AP at all because you won't get a match.
  3. One issue that's gone on as long as time itself is the lack of transparency. We never know what's really going on, we just see the results of it. Based on the small amount of interaction we have it appears that those that want to make a difference are hindered by internal/external agreements and rules. These rules likely prevent them from communicating as much as they would like as well.
  4. I think they do read the forums. People certainly get banned for being too spicy lol. I suspect that the issue is they are powerless to do much. A public post released in July promised change is coming with negotiations between the producers here and 'HQ' to be finalised soon. Post here: https://www.aiononline.com/en-us/news/aion-classic-producers-letter-july2022 This is probably their last and final shot to fix things.
  5. Some people just want to watch the game burn (or what's left of it anyway lol).
  6. Happy to say I'm not good at pvp. But I accept the terms of which pvp happens in this game. Yeah it's skewed towards whales, no lifers, and people with excellent pings - welcome to a game that was built for a Korean audience where this is the norm. Anyway, I just enjoy it for what it is, if people are stroking ego because they beat you with 10x the gear or broken mechanics why are you mad? Be happy you didn't waste the time and money that they did and move on. If the player owned discord is toxic just leave it lol. You're paying a sub, so you should be enjoying it. If you're not then you know the answer.
  7. You probably were trying to login during maintenance hours. Happens weekly
  8. After best Spiritmaster stigma setup for: Udas U/L Besh HM Dark Poeta S Rank Currently using a split stigma build that includes Infernal Pain but also Armor spirit from the other line to ensure 100% chance of erosion landing on target. Any value to forsaking this for a full stigma line into infernal blight? Is this worth it for high end dungeons? I'm also using fire spirit + Spirit Wall of Protection for +16% phys damage in groups with glads/ranger/sins etc. Any suggestions valued. Cheers, Crow.
  9. I mean, it's the principle. Many people are mad at the state of the game and so they don't perceive it as worth the 15 even if they can easily afford it. If it were cheaper they may be more happy to tolerate many of the issues and in time become more invested.. sometimes to the point of spending more money on the BCM. There are many potential returners, people who would happily be playing for nostalgia and etc that have a sour taste in their mouth that can be easily negated by lowering the sub price. No other game really need to be factored in.
  10. Edit: just realised your character level is 69 so that aint classic. (Welcome to Aion classic forums).
  11. Reading between the lines, and this one specifically: This is probably the single thing that's kept any real change from happening. A massive disconnect between the people with the raging dumpster fire in front of them vs. the people above in the penthouse of the apartment complex eating caviar. Imagine shouting up to them from the street about this mess, they wouldn't even hear you let alone care. Let them eat cake. Or perhaps, let them eat Quna.
  12. Hello Daevas, We would like to talk to you about an issue we've been getting lots of feedback on lately for Aion: Classic. Specifically, about how certain items are not being included in the droplist or with unexpected drop rates for certain zones and in the open world – to put it broadly: the "drop rate issue." Although this change was applied to all regions including our own, it clearly is not representative of our region’s needs. We have been continually taking your feedback to discuss this issue with HQ and as of this week, we have almost finalized an agreement. We stayed silent longer than we would typically do so, because we wanted to have a resolution in place before sharing it with everyone. We are working to finalize the resolution for our region over the next couple weeks, and we will share it with you as soon as it is decided. This is (and has been) our highest priority and will be implemented as quickly as possible. We know this has taken a heavy toll on the community and want to reassure you all that we have been reading all the messages from Rin and our other Community Managers, as well as the other posts on the forums. Seeing all our incredibly passionate players dealing with such a strong pain point for so long without a resolution is unacceptable to us, and we have been working tirelessly to ensure that our solution will address your needs. We appreciate each and every one of you and we are continually trying to improve our service of the game. To help the community while we wait for these changes to come to Classic, starting next week we’ll be running the following events: Dungeon Delve Returns Fantastic Login Bundle Season 2 Mega Boost Festival 200% EXP 200% Abyss Points Gained 200% Kinah dropped We look forward to celebrating Aion for many more years, and from us here at NC, we hope we can all come together to create a better tomorrow. Sincerely, The Aion Producers: Loki, Andrew, and Min. https://www.aiononline.com/en-us/news/aion-classic-producers-letter-july2022
  13. I can only agree. My suggestion is a compromise, $7 USD per month and just ban the bots (I know, nothing is going to chance, but hey why not have a dream ).
  14. I feel your pain here but you already know the answer. It's the same answer we have had for over a decade. It's not changing now, or ever. For the small player base that's left I think it's one of those boiling frog scenarios really. By the time they realise it's hot, they've already put too much time in and can't pluck up the motivation to leave. We all love/loved this game at one point but it's not that game anymore bro. You can't get that magic back, you cannot go back to your childhood. Don't forsake your present for your past. Don't be the person that in 10 years from now looks back at this time with regret. Life is finite.
  15. Wonder if there's going to be a rug pull - they put a bunch of gear and pay to win stuff like manastones and enchants in the shop, cash in and then shut it down a month later lol. I just can't see this lasting that much longer, surely. Watch out for it I guess.
  16. Not gonna lie I feel bad for the mods they have on here, you can see the turnover is very high. They aren't given the power to change anything, and no one is going to action the feedback they attempt to relay upwards. I've been in jobs like that, where the issues are obvious, customers are mad.. and the higher ups don't listen. It's frustrating.
  17. I'm sure you understand what I'm saying. Semantics.
  18. There's a reason people still pay for Netflix even though there's plenty of ways to illegally stream and download shows. If you give people a legal and affordable way to access something many will take it. Sadly the offering here is not an affordable or competitive one with illegal options. You can spend millennia trying to ban private servers - it won't stop them. However if you 'get good' and be a better option than private servers, then you need not be concerned with them. Will this very simple business case occur here? lol no. This is a rudderless ship where it's likely that people at the very very top dictate what they think is best without being connected to what is really happening. Anyway, enjoy I guess.
  19. I think you are correct. Makes sense there's locust plague proportions of bots on this level mob in theo so I must be onto a good thing here lol. Cheers.
  20. Because knowing them, it's better than nothing.
  21. I will say this, wealth can be subjective in this game. Many see 2m as chump change and so therefore there is no problem. I personally am happy to tolerate prices up to 5m for a stigma but the real issue comes about when there is simply *no* option to acquire a required stigma at all. That's when we enter into broken game territory.
  22. Look, I appreciate that NCSoft is now selling a box with stigmas in the shop for a decent price however there's still issues with this: 1.) The boxes don't actually contain a choice of all possible stigmas. As an example I am a Spiritmaster that requires Spirit Recovery I in order to unlock an entire stigma tree. It's level 44, which means it's not actually contained within the box of stigmas on the Quna store. It also has had zero listings on the trading post for an extended period of time. If someone can inform me which mob to grind mindlessly for a few weeks to get this drop please let me know. 2.) What state is the game in where stigmas for core functionality of a given class have to be bought for Quna? Yes it's affordable (for most players) but how did it get to this? Is it a drop rate issue or a player population in certain areas issue, aka not enough people actually killing x mobs to make x stigma drop? Can we address this? 3.) Some players have mentioned some mystical vendor that is/was in the original Aion that sells elusive stigmas. Is this true? If so, I'm assuming it's just not profitable to add to the game. In which case, please at the very least include *all* possible low level stigmas in the boxes you are selling. I will happily give you my money, I just want to play the game. Yours sincerely, Crow
