Dont really have much sympathy for the asmo faction.All i see pvp wise in instances is the same geared premades que dodging too face undergeared teams,some plant their Alts and freely admit it to you and then train and do everything they can too make you lose.And open world xforming then spying too grief i mean if this is what pvp is Gl getting any new or return players to put up with this style of gameplay. Same goes for arenas i could record countless times the teaming by multiple players but why bother nothing changes. Its a sad state of gameplay that players of both factions resort to these tactics too win.Why even bother gearing if only want 1 shot players all your doing is driving players away.Anyways no point anymore sadly this is whats become of the game,even retail didnt become this bad so fast.

I was positive ,then i discovered how low people will sink to win at a game.The toxic nature of the players left makes the game unejoyable in pvp content.I have no time or patience for players that use every exploit to win .Nobody is ever punished so why bother playing in Toxic enviroment these type of players ruin the game for people who are left or might of come back. The players are just as much the problem as the way the games run,seriously if you need to cheat at a video game please go and seek some help for your issues.

In any other Mmo bad behaviour would be punished this game nothing happens. Arenas players are free too team and feed a person points this isnt pvp when groups of legion players focus one player.This happens DAILY over and over. Ap traders still happening nothing happens,hackers nothing happens. I hope this game shutsdown because its players are what ruined it cheating hacking and cant handle losing legit they must do everything to win. Ncsoft has not policed this game ever.Plenty of good MMos out there that dont tolerate these types of players. And to the players that participate in this behaviour enjoy a dead game you can all Afk in iggy with nothing to do.

Dear producers and NC i want too create this thread so players can give you Feedback in a single thread if your serious about listening thanks. Firstly new or return players shouldn't really be made too pay for return or beginner passes if you want people too come back. 1.Stigmas this problem is still ongoing we need a Vendor will solve the issue overnight. 2.Questing and Levelling is Fine after the increases too campaign xp and adding Solo steelrake.Would be good though if made last heiron and theo campaigns solo groups can still be hard to get. 3.Manastones are still a major problem for every player in this game,why are there no pink quests like previously in retail this would help supply greatly. 4.Instances reducing our Fort,Dredge and Tiak entrys limits even more content.Dredge and tiak could be at least 2 entrys a day and Forts at least twice a week.New or Return players will find it very hard too catch up. 5.Medal supply is pretty bad considering need minimum 190 for your weapon maybe increase dailys and let boxes give you 2 medals each would help,also reducing cost on 50 and lower gear would help players. Later patches up until 4.0 added a Ton of Qol changes,gating of instances and lack of supply is hurting many players.I would also suggest a increase on Kinah gained from poeta and veteron campaigns so players have a bit more kinah for teleports and skill books or reduce the cost for players under level 25 too 1kinah for skills and porting,until they can farm kinah. Thats all i can come up with currently i ask all others to provide feedback in a concise and polite manner for the Devs.Peace<3

Please NC do something about this problem except for making us buy them in shop. Levelling a SM farmed for my wind spirit book 3 no drops, tried farm for level 4 one with my sin hundreds of mobs no drops. Stigmas like sigil silence body root just wont drop and are priced at 20 million plus on broker if even see one. It is pointless trying too attract players back if it's this hard simply to get our skills required too play effectively. Please just give us a Stigma Vendor like later patches because its clear even if try Farming there's no guarantee you get the drop you need. This has been a massive issue for months and months and your only Fix was to make us buy them on Top of us already paying you a subscription.

Hello Fellow players. I dont normally get upset but i want too point out some issues for new/return players. There is only so much a player can achieve Solo to get geared for Pvp and pve. This eltisit attitude and refusal to take new or return players into group or alliance content is going too turn more people away from coming back. If you actually as a COMMUNITY want a healthy game helping out new/return players is appreciated.Trying to get people to let you into Tiak and siege groups is just ridiculous lately we cant all be 55 elite geared a little help goes a long way in retaining people who are giving this game another a chance. Even since returning i have seen more people stop logging,while nc has made many mistakes in their management players are too blame as well.They dont want to foster and develop new or return players in pvp and pve.Really is sad the lack of community and help in this game now by established players and legions who see it as a waste of their time trying to help people that might stay if they see positive progression and some help.Peace all:)

Another issue i forgot Time gated content. Destroying dredge too 1 entry has killed it for a lot of people. Fort instances really 1 entry a week again just ruins fun for people. Everything in this game is Time gated limited entry it really doesnt make people want too sub when can log for 2 hours do dredge tiak and your arenas then logout. I have played many games and the time gating and instance locks in this game are really over the top,people need a reason too log in gating literally aspect of this game with daily.weekly entrys just kills it for people. If i play wow i can arena/bg 24/7 i can do loads of content without timegates apart from raids obviously,this design too timegate everyone actually makes the game dead because why bother logging when can get most things done in a couple of hours then your locked till next reset.

This has been a issue for sometime now why release skins,hair and then make them unsellable too other players.If want money everything in this shop should be able too be sold it is just stupid logic making us unable too sell them.Hundreds of skins over aions life and you cant add way more that we can trade and sell makes no sense.While i dont particualry endorse full pay2win the shop in Retail previously is far superior to what you are doing with classic.

Pluses story,content graphics for a older game are awesome. now the cons. Supply side issues on pretyy much every item. Manastones still super expensive when they explode. Medals are through the roof 2mill+ per medal. Stigmas again some are still super expensive making it hard for new or return players. Godstones still a very limited supply,can if lucky obtain from your boxes but they are super rare. Playerbase is largely the geared players who havent yet left,there isnt a healthy mix of geared and people gearing up,as a poster said Dredge and Tiak is likely going to be against geared premades,not saying cant occassionally win and get lucky, just rare. The problem is the pay2win aspect from the very start ruined it for a lot of people.Even now they want players back but then make them pay with the returnee and beginner pass,instead of making people pay too return these should be free for people who quit for over a month. Even for a old game classic had the potential to be awesome players still like aion,they just dont like the way its run and how players are largely ignored by nc korea,who dont have a grasp on their market.

@Funkula is it possible to get some information Regarding the Greater Stigma Quest.I have created a thread but we are getting no information if its a bug or not. To recap previously before 2.4 we got a quest from Reemul at level 52 to enter talocs hollow this quest is no longer showing nor does it appear when we hit 55. The only change on patch notes that i can see is that we only have to do 30 kills once now instead of 5 repeats.It would be greatly appreciated by the community if we could get some sort of answer regarding this as a few people are not getting this quest anymore.Thanks and regards.

@EMpulse An official reply would be appreciated on this subject.Previously this quest would appear at level 52,it is no longer showing nor at 55.There was no quest required to unlock it before 2.4.In the patch notes the only change seems to be that it is now 1 quest too unlock the Final greater stigma.There is no information that says we need a Campaign or another quest to unlock our stigmas. Thanks nc for your speedy replys to a ongoing issue.

So the greater Stigma quest from Reemul in iggison always used too pop up at level 52 and you did your 2 talocs runs then at 55 the 30 kill one.I have hit 55 and nothing is showing with this Npc has there been a change made too acquiring this quest? There was no prerequistes before except being level 52 i couldnt find any details in patch notes.It used to pop even you were still on the first greater from miriya. Any player help or information from a GM would be greatly appreciated few people in Lfg also asking.

Hello all i thought id make a small leveling guide since the changes to campaigns to help players reach 55 easier. Level 1-10 During double Xp make sure you grind mobs to hit level 9 ascend smash out your campaigns by this stage you should be around level 12. In sanctum do your krall potion and leph crests with xenophon. Proceed too veteron pick up a few side Quests i.e kukuru gathering,silver for sanctum,perinens worry,lobnite fossil etc.Do these few side quests and your first three campaigns also grind a few mobs till you hit level 16. With a 20% xp amulet you are now set to do 5 haramel runs this should take you too level 22. Proceed to smash out all your remaining campaigns they are now all Soloable non elites. At level 20 do not hand in your elthen quest or do your stigma save the Experience. By the time you have done all your Camps you should be level 25.Now head to sanctum and do your abyss entry quests. After this head to NTC you should be able grind this place till around level 33 with a 20% bonus amulet. Now head to elthen do all your side quests like priorites money,restored sword,stigma quest.Make sure you pick up all your gather quests i cant stress enough how much these little bits of XP add up save your big Camp Xp for later. After grinding NTC try to do afew FT runs too hit 37 if you cant find groups do a few campaigns then head too Heiron hand in only your starter quest proceed to run your 5 Kromedes Trials.Again in heiron do your side quests and gather ones they really add up. By now after doing gather quests and Kormedes you should be around level 42.43. Now Steelrake Do 2 runs will ding you to 45.Pick up your first greater stigma quest from Miriya in sanctum,do your kill 10 mobs in theo for firs tlot of groggies too purchase your drana crystal.There is also a Daily from Angel pick it up its 3mil xp with mob kills,right next to her is also a repeat for 28 hornskull kills with double xp and amulet this quest plus kills will give 6 mil per hand in repeatable 15 times. Now head sanctum hand in first stigma quest then proceed too pick up second one now do another steelrake run this will give 3 blue dranas and daily next day your next greater stigma. By now you should head back to Elthen at around46 and clear out the rest of your campaigns this should take you to 47/48 depending on how much grinding side quests you did. By this stage i generally haven touched any heiron quest except the starter one i go through and complete them but i dONT hand them in. Head back to theo finish the Hornskull repeat grind there also 4 other quests in Port anake complete these also for a bit over 18mil xp. By now you should be around level 50 go through and smash out all your heiron cmapaigns and any Abyss ones you have left you should with these hit around 52. After this point proceed to theo and complete your campaigns with any luck you will get 53 or 54,after this do your first 2 campaigns in Iggison smash out Talocs hollow with 20% amulet these runs should ding you to 55 its boring as hell but a Full clear nets a ton of XP. Hope this helps players,remember just zerging campaigns even with XP increase leaves you a bit short doing the Solo instances and side quests will boost your xP gains greatly,

** Character Creation bug wont let people create a new toon despite not being max limit. **Arena and Instance Disconnects for people using Exitlag **Light Blue Quests in Veteron,elthen herion and theo are no longer showing on the map. Thats what i have seen so far feel free to add bugs as find them so they can fix,
