Some things I want to talk about Aion

[GenericUser25944]

First of all, I apologize in advance, English is not my native language and I probably have spelling errors. 

The first thing I would like to highlight is the imbalance of races in the servers. Currently in KT, for the asmodians, it is impossible to do something in the siege of Lakrum, we simply can not advance, not even with the '' losers' buff '', they outnumber us. Added to that, the lag and low fps makes it even more difficult to participate in the siege, and this is not something of this update, it is a problem of yesteryear that has not yet been able to find a solution. Maybe a good solution to this problem is a merge of the current servers, although it probably does not help lag, but another solution is to enable the option that we can change server (if that option already exists, please tell me how it is done , they would help me a lot). I do not know, there comes a time when it becomes frustrating to see that we can never move forward, and I do not feel that we have bad players on the asmodian side.

The second thing I would like to talk about is the transformations, and reading the forum I see that I am not the first person to complain about the topic. It is understandable that they can not modify an aspect of this update as important as the transformations (I mean they can not remove them and return the beloved scrolls) however, as with the economy that adjusted to our needs, you should modify that the transformations need to be invisible, since for this part of the world, it is not nice to see furrys everywhere and we don't want to pay to see our character, something that comes by default and so much cost to create, is unfair. Even, personally, I do not even want to spend money on skins since they will not be seen in the game, nor in appearance change tickets. The skins now for me became something completely useless and unnecessary. We need the transformations to be invisible by default or that the scrolls to make them transparent can be crafted and brokeable, and although you do not believe it or it seems a whim on the part of all, it is really necessary.

The last thing I want to talk about is the kinah and it's a question in general to all the players. What is your current kinah source? because I only see ways to spend and spend but not to get kinah (do not mention craft in Luna because it is not something useful for me, I will not spend money to buy materials to make a box with kinah). I feel that currently the instances give very little kinah, I really am very lost with this topic. In addition to that the prices in Trade Broker are not adapted to the new economy of the game, so for that reason I am asking for a little help with that problem.

I know there are many complaints, but I really see several inconsistencies that must be fixed, and I see that I am not the only one, I hope we can achieve something with all the complaints and that we can enjoy the game that we all like so much. Certain things that made Aion a unique MMORPG have already been lost, hopefully we can solve others. Thanks for reading, have a good day.

No kinah source, having only 1k when you hit level 80 is NO KINAH and, that's how it is now. Lucky if you make 80 without being stuck, unable to teleport to the next zone.

My current kinah sources are as follows (These are mostly not ways to generate kinah into the game so there is technically still a problem of kinah deficiency that has to be addressed by ncsoft in the long run)

Before reading, do note that broker fees are as such, 2.2% charge for registering and 11.2% charge after selling which adds up to 13.4% charge. (Just putting this fact out here before someone starts saying broker fees are high etc etc. IMO you want to earn yourself some kinah and survive this patch, broker is the way till ncsoft increase sales from 10% to something higher) Also, when npc-ing loot is stated, do note that I mean npc-ing through your inventory not at the actual npc. Lastly also note that i'm a f2p player who mainly double client and uses quite a lot of alt toons so that is as good as doubling income due to the nature of most things this patch.

1) CoE solo and mirash npc all white/gold loot (Do this when you have your full level 78 PvE set which allows you to do harder instances like FM/BoS)

2) Crafting transparent xform scrolls with luna and selling them on broker (No i'm not asking you to spend money to buy materials i'm asking you to afk your luna runs get mats and craft them. Note: I don't really mind running around as a furry unlike some people so your decision to use this method or not)

3) Siege (Sell the conqueror gemstones you get from siege on broker if you don't use them)

4) World Bosses (Attend as many world boss kills as possible, loot is league loot so everyone gets them no reason you won't be invited. The bosses drop craft mats which again sell them on broker if you don't use them or what I personally do is sell the extras I have after using some for crafting)

5) Open world grind (Yes the good old asian grind fest. Could do this when you are on/off your mob kill weekly quests that give genesis crystals. Mobs drop white loot which you again npc and also craft mats that you throw up on broker if you don't use them. Note: Using green xform sort of only allow you to break even on xform scrolls used vs kinah gained from npc-ing stuff)

6) Luna (well here we are again, you can sell the manastones/transparent xform scrolls from the daily luna run 7x quest on broker, you can also do so with the weekly 7x quest but for me i'm getting stigma enchant stones out of the weekly 7x quest so that isn't an option for me)

7) Cubics (Might not be applicable to everyone but as stated above I usually double client so while my main account is stacking up on cubics my alt account is changing all cubics to gold grade to sell on broker)

I do not know how you are only spending and spending kinah this patch. I used to collect skins prior to the patch, last skin I bought from some other guy was the divine garb skin, didn't manage to buy the infernal garb/carousel ensemble/assassin skins due to this patch hitting and me realising saving kinah for gearing is more important. The only thing i'm mainly spending kinah on now is xform scrolls. If its because your buying transparent xform scrolls when you have close to no kinah then well I have nothing to say, I believe i've spoken enough on xform and if people are being stubborn then i'll let them be. Other ways to use lesser kinah is to use the admin boon that you occasionally get from luna, they reduce your travel fee to 1 kinah and also you do not get xp loss if you die and therefore do not have to pay the soul healer.

O and to add on i've already managed to purify my genesis crystal weapon to legendary grade and got correct ancient grade xforms on first tries on 5/6 of my accounts via the event that is about to end today #F2PDoneRight.

Go into your graphics settings and turn ON (as in, check the box) the Fixed FPS setting. This brought me from about 5fps to 15fps. Also, turning off rank/legion names for people and turning off effects for all helps to a lesser degree. The Fixed FPS setting is what really helps me though.

you spend kinah just getting where you need to go - can't run there anymore, takes ages so, have to teleport or fast travel to closest point. Can't afford transparent scrolls to allow us to run instead of teleporting, flying and, using fast travel - need those to kill things or, as I did becasue not spending cash on transparents and, have no kinah, took 2 hours to kill Tiamat because she kept resetting every time I had to rest and heal in there because too slow to get out of the way.
