  1. You are the hero we need but do not deserve i was wondering what the divine numbers were like after the first one.
  2. The problem is no matter how much they advertise you fail to understand that all the negative social media posts are made almost exclusively due to the community and their playstyle AKA ap trading. No one is going to pick up Aion just because they see an AD for the game they will check out the game and go OMG the community that plays the game hates it why would i bother. The community is the biggest problem as to why no one plays Aion and it will always be the problem because the community is so small more often than not people have more friends on the other faction than they do have on their own faction which is a super weird dynamic compared to the old days where if they were red/pink/purple they were dead.
  3. Yea i think if you were going to do a double AP event a double medal event would be a good event to have along side it. Other than that you can just make new characters and get 10 gold medals that way if you are really starved for them.
  4. ahh ok must of had something that never let me see it before because it just popped up for me for the first time.
  5. Is this new or was this always there since classic released?
  6. We do not know this for sure tho, They said they have no current way to implement more content yet the actually created a brand new PvP instance for classic. If classic was deemed successful they will re-create 3.0 or take it in a different direction. More than likely they will stop at 2.7 then announce the release date of Aion 2.
  7. I logged in exclusively to experience this i was elyos side and you guys sucked(no offense intended). You did not even do the boss mechanics you just yeeted it up mid at the dux. In the first 5 minutes of the boss fight a minimum 40% of the league died 4+ times and then they were constantly ganked coming back down because you did not protect your kisks. Due to elyos being actually alliance/league stupid they did not cross res so people could get in to the artifact room where they were meant to be. Your co-ordination took it down 1/4. That would of easily been 1/2 if you had a less selfish community. Gaming in 2022 is not really favourable to faction v faction games because everyone is in it for themselves unfortunately. With all that being said it still needs a 50% HP nerf.
  8. There is a HUGE difference between earning a HHoM and buying your way to it. You supporting the game through selling candies is awesome supporting something you love should never be shunned and that is not my intention at all, It is the intent of you saying you "earned" your HHoM. You were guaranteed it, It may cost you $100 OR it may cost you $100,000 but you were going to get it. Had of you actually earned your attempts you would know what you said is improbable in the time Aion classic has been out. Again it is not about spending habits it is about earning it and i know spending players like to re-direct it and say i am salty, Let me save you some time so you do not write out a whole post about how i am f2p rubbish and let you know ahead of your next post that i also spend/spent on classic and i fully intend to buy the battle pass and event battle pass on 3 characters when 2.0 comes out. There is nothing wrong with spending, Just clearing this up so you do not dwell on spending habits if you reply. Now with that out of the way i do not believe that my spending habit is the same as someone earning something in game. You bypassed the earning part by RMTing enough kinah to get BBBS which is a similar thing as what @Tasoulaaaawanted by having the HHoM added to the battle pass. He wants to RMT the hearts through the battle pass you wanted to RMT your HHoM by buying enough BBBS till you finally succeeded. The only difference between you and him is the price you had to spend till you got yours and the amount he wants to pay for the HHoM. If they added 100 BBBS(so they still had to do the craft) to the battle pass everyone would still be running around with mira/fenris anyways because there would be a huge influx of supply and less demand every month.
  9. Server has been live for something like 260-280 days now. That is 5 bloods per day for 1400 bloods. There is no way you "worked hard" to obtain them. You bought kinah or used a bot program. That is excluding the fact that you had to level/build an empire and compete for grind/gathering locations if you were grinding for profit. Now lets say hypothetically you bought them at an average price of 300k(in which is a very generous price). Due to the low drop rate of BBBS you would of paid far more than that but again we are being generous so that would be 420m for 1400 BBBS. To obtain 5 BBBS per day which again that is you hypothetically obtaining BBBS from day 1 is actually impossible based off the amount you get ganked in the eye/belu non elite grinding locations in the early days. Roah is basically always green or blue so you could not really grind roah so that is out of the question. Now on to the next point, Even if you were selling candies to the vendor the kinah cap was 1.3m daily at an average price of 300k you would need 1,500,000 just to buy the BBBS for 14 attempts, You would be losing 200k per day buying BBBS for 14 attempts. This is excluding the fact that you had to pay for scrolls/pots and so on daily and if you were doing DP the rift essence and so on. Your average daily spending would be in excess of 2.5m per day for 280 days. This however is totally unrealistic because DP was not out for 280 days upper forts were not out for 280 days and so on. There are many variables to this but when these instances were not out there was 20-30x less(again being generous more like 80x) BBBS in the market so there is that subjective opinion that can be made as well. I am not trying to say you do not have your HHOM i believe you do have one. What i am saying is that there no way you grinded out the kinah OR the BBBS in the time the classic has been out for 14 attempts as well as progress every other aspect of the game. You bought(or botted) your way to it and that is fine if that is how you consider you earning it that is on you but you did bypass the earning it definition to everyone who plays Aion not pays. I am going to assume you are an honest human and you bought your way to it through buying candies and selling them to other players. Anyways all that aside looking at your profile and your 2 posts did you make your account to just call out @Tasoulaaaa? LOL.
  10. This was made clear back in late 4.X patches. I am guessing you are new to classic to not know this.
  11. Tbh Siel numbers would produce the best sieges that is for sure, I remember doing siege on the 6.0 new server and it was about 150-200 each side and they actually had strategy not just have more numbers and win.
  12. Once slayers take complete control of the elyos faction we should probably see elyos actually doing something on SL. This will take some time tho.
  13. LOL you do understand that level 50 elyos are re-rolling to asmo right? Elyos are losing 50s not just gaining 50s.
  14. Tbh SL-E is only gonna get worse, Even more players have quit elyos to re-roll asmo and beyond that the elyos clearly have a divide and are not going to budge. It is what it is.
  15. I hope this is not passive aggressive sarcasm because what he does is good. I just read it like you were trying that passive aggressive approach.
  16. Thank you asmo's for the free fort tonight we really needed a foothold in the abyss.
  17. Merge or paid transfers, Either way people will be bringing medals over to sell for kinah so they can RMT them off.
  18. Why do elyos even need forts? They are getting 10s of 1000s of medals from IS when it gets merged in to the server. Beyond that the instances will have portals for the losing faction so they can still do the instances. Other than morphs there is no reason to contest forts at all. Elyos are better off getting a PvP buff since their entire faction seems to be solo orientated gamers.
  19. @Forthyn-KTAfter reading what you wrote and re-reading the letter itself, I think it makes sense why i recall it the way i do. Since i actively avoided FB groups i only re-call the aftermath that happened on the forums. Reading what you said here more than likely ended up putting both you and saty in to a position where your letter to the developers was probably rushed on to the forums at that point. Either way reading through it i still am genuinely confused as to why even have a memory like this after re-reading the letter. It contained solid relevant information that covered points for just about everyone who played the game back then. Thinking about it for 20-30 mins now and i think below will explain the potential reason as to why i remember it that way. This makes me lead in to you saying this. This may be the case for me but in a different way, The person i was back then is different to the person i am today so i could of remembered the information from the forum post as a whole rather than the actual letter its content and intent. In which even back then the forums always had a fairly toxic environment to it. Due to this it maybe the reason as to why I viewed it as both yourself and satyx not caring at all when the reality is looking back on it, The entire post as a whole had the toxicity involved in it so it diluted what efforts you put in due to this toxicity. Ultimately this memory of mine all stems from me not having the whole picture due to not having FB during that time period in which will greatly change how someone views a post on the forums. I can definitely see now looking back on the letter written combined with your post now that both yourself and satyx obviously did care. It would be super interesting to me to be able to re-read that whole post(i am assuming it is shut down now) and see if i still feel the same way about it today as my memory perceives it. P.S turns out i did remember your name tho.
  20. That is just it tho it mind boggles me how their developers/publishers do not understand this from their PoV. Aion classic has its flaws but the reality of Aion classic is simple. No matter how much someone else spends to gain an advantage early on and how far ahead they get with in 2-3 months of active gameplay you can catch up to a competitive level. In which the longer the servers are out the easier it is to get gear because medals become cheaper and so on. Which is why i always say it is not the payment options in retail that ruin it but the lack of pro-active gameplay activities to participate in that ruins retail the most.
  21. It is a tough one because i am of the mindset that the achievable goal to be competitive...scratch that to have an enjoyable experience is still achievable with in a month or 2 so in when you look at the grand scheme of things it is a non factor problem but i will explain. The battle pass and the AP is just 1 side of the same coin. The other side of that coin they implemented with classic was the nerfed rate of kinah from sellable items. They are worth i think(from crafting old items i use to just vendor) is roughly 4.5x less than the original. There was also the candy exploit where players could vendor candies they buy from NCsoft for 100k. We do not know if we will get this or not so if we do it will create an even bigger broker imbalance making it hard for players to buy anything. The thing is ultimately it is not all that bad despite how grim i make it sound because all these problems are invalidated after about 2 months of playing and faster if you stay ahead of the leveling curve.
