Aion: Random Question Thread

[Trichocyst]

God, leveling my aethering to 399 was hell because of Storm Circle. I personally would welcome the idea of grinding in Storm Circle sometime, but there's a good reason no Elyos are ever grinding there.

I recently did some rifting in Beluslan and kind of felt like we would have found more Asmos standing still at an intersection in Heiron.

[Greenjade]

I haaate Storm Circle. It would seem like a good place to grind but man...a Asmo friendly area is not a nice place to be.

What is the area in the Asmo side where us Elyos are safe? >.>

Fortress of Sorrow in Morheim.

In before played-out argument about how that's not fair because it's low level, blah blah blah.

Been a long while, what time would double exp weekend begin for west coast?

[Pyree]

This weekend is not double exp weekend, but when it is, it starts at 8pm server time on Friday.

Been leveling an assassin and just hit 34 last night.

Question about blood rune 1.

It reads as it removes up to 5 runes and deals dmg while healing you for a portion of the dmg done.

When using it through it functions differently and it shows in the combat log.

It deals an initial dmg by removing the runes and an addition hit usually very close to the original amount (sometimes more, sometimes less) labeled as 'additional effect' for which the amount healing you is based on.

Is this something you think ncsoft attended and the description of the action is just wrong? (im assuming other assassins have noticed this and most likely talked about it at some point)

Has the 1.5.1.9 patch borked anyone else? Launcher loads, but it's stuck downloading it. I try to right click Aion for the option to force play without updating, but it won't show, and I have no way of knowing if this update is actually downloading since the progress bar isn't doing anything.

what you describe for blood rune is how it works and it has been working, im however not sure if thats how they mean it to be but at this point thats definitely how it is functioning

Since I'm nearing 50, I'm thinking about abandoning my Expert Alchemy quest and skilling Cooking up. Did they ever fix it so you could jump to another craft after abandoning, or will I have to get ahold of a GM?

[izembo]

not changed yet

[arus2001]

Mmkay, so will a GM actually change it, then?

[Trichocyst]

I don't believe they will.

[Tythera]

They won't change it, I tried with 3 different GMs.

Mind asking him if you get the chance? And if he did get reset, if there was anything particular he said or did to make it happen since others have said it couldn't be done.

[Skinwalker]

I don´t know if it was asked before but is it possible to switch gear with a macro? And if yes how?

Thank you ^^

[Greenjade]

For the expert quest...It is two parts. The first part I think you can abandon if you didn't finish. If you did the first part and picked up the second part you can't abandon it anymore.
