Aion Team Arctic Posted June 25, 2021 Aion Team Share Posted June 25, 2021 To celebrate the launch of Aion Classic with you all, we are activating a 30% XP Boost & 5% Movement Speed boost via a buff which all characters will receive beginning at noon PT today (1pm Server Time)! This buff will cast on 20-minute intervals (and some extra casts for good measure), and remain in effect through June 30, at 6:00 pm Server Time. We wanted to also spread awareness that there is a known issue affecting players who in loading screens either by teleporting or map movement when the buff is cast. These players will not receive the buff during that 20-minute interval, however can do so as soon as the next wave of buffs is bestowed. It is recommended to avoid travelling between maps if you are waiting for the buff to be cast. Please note that this buff does not stack with Berdin's Amulet III, and when used the more powerful buff will override the other so long as it remains active.

Guest why Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 But the games only been out for like 2 days? Sorry but this seems a bit odd, EXP is already faster then original. Also now just takes away from server first level 50 as they doing it the easy way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ava Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Seems like a weird decision given that the whole reason classic was released was for the slower experience in all aspects. If the candies weren't odd enough of a choice, 30% xp event makes this seem like some weird f2p private server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aion 7.9 has a 100% boost most weekends. Aion Classic was only a 30% boost but it went for 5 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because you need the exp for Experience Marks which is yet another form of currency. There's no such need in classic, because it's about leveling, exploring and making friends along the way.

True Aion classic is not Retail it has more meaning to everything you do, first blue weapon you get feels awesome , first boots with running speed feels like you are Flash and than you get attack speed weapons and gold world drops and you run FT with group and see your first gold drop from Boss and its just an amazing experience because you know how rare it is to get all this stuff on other hand on 7.9 game just throws meaningless gold gear at you and it all feels bland and just another worthless thing you get on your 2 hour journey to lvl80 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing is particularly easy. My First NTC run we wiped 3 times, but it sill felt good. Some people are into their level 40's already, others are running bots killing the same mobs over and over. It's not like they are going to get some marvelous gear drop. I think the long grind gives you a reason to explore all the quests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
