Aion: Random Question Thread

[drewbixcube]

if i use my normal card my parents snoop around and i've already had them rage over ff monthly charges so i just wanted to be able to do it "under the radar" and probably won't be playing hardcore every month.

28 Templar friend is confused on what secondary stigma to equip other than his pull in move, and I had no clue so... What does a 28 Templar use for stigmas?

[Lebzile]

If he likes GSword, do Divine Slash. At 30 I'll be using it, IJ and be swapping out Divine Fury and Provoking Roar depending on situations (solo grinding vs PVE tanking I.E. FT runs).

Looking at higher level crafting recipes, I see a lot of the 400+ recipes are listed as Balic Craft. What does Balic mean? I believe they're learned on that little island in Reshenta, but other than that I'm not sure if there's any difference between Balic Crafts and a regular craft.

Uses belaur parts as ingredients

[Priran]

Not just that, but I believe you need to trade Balaur hearts to the Tigraki shugos to get the recipes.

I use IJ + AoE provoke one, for PvE sake.

Being 29 SM I should probably know this by now, but is there and elemental wheel in this game? Until now I have just put up my DoTs while letting my Fire Spirit smack it, but I just had him almost 3 shotted by a lower level water spirit, which leads me to believe I should know some elemental wheel by now.

[Priran]

there isn't a wheel.

earth opposes wind
water opposes fire

spirits resist their own element and take extra damage from the opposing one

[DrRuler]

Where can I find what elements mob types are weak to? I don't see anything like that on the armory. Or does this only affect spirits?

Good grind spot at 33/34? Been doing the Kerub Looters and Sentinels near Heiron Observatory.

I want a place as good as 28-31/32 at the Crabs (Klaws) near Erecus. Could have 3-4 people in that area, with no worries on repops basicaly.

most monsters have no weakness or affinity unless they're buffed or debuffed with one

Just picked up Aion on the weekend and am really liking it so far. However, is there any way to make the background of your chat window(s) opaque (ie. non-transparent)? I've looked through the chat window settings and I can't seem to find anything. I like the UI so far, but I'm finding the chat hard to read without some background for contrast.

Unfortunately no. I know, it sucks.

It's getting fixed soon, I remember NCSoft saying something about it coming.

Anyplace for a 30 SM to solo elites for good exp? I know I have seen 30something rangers soloing them, but I have no idea where those pictures were taken at, if it's your super secret leveling spot of mad hax could you at least PM it to me? Although I'd doubt you can have a super secret spot in this game, I can't cross a zone section without running into 10 people. I am typing too much for a simple question... stupid class... Comp Sci degrees suck to get if you were wondering if you should do a Computer Science degree.

[Trocian]

sorry if this has been asked before but i'm a bit short on time, can you pay with prepaid cards?

There are NCsoft-cards that work with all their games.

Isn't it Kaidan Mine?

Good luck getting groups to not kill your mobs when they are just standing around waiting for the rest of their members to gather up though. Our party wouldn't stop doing that to a ranger camping out there. If you can get past that or there is a different camp other than the front entrance I'd say you're good though :/

I was secretly hoping someone would have said someplace else for a super secret solo spot, but yes that is the only one I knew of, and yes people do RUIN the exp from mobs. Every. Single. Time.

Non-rangers/SM's: from now on, if a ranger or SM is running from a mob, do NOTHING to help them. I don't care if they are screaming "Oh my god it's eating my leg off!! GAahwodslknwaoids" They are fine, kiting looks like that.
