Aion Version 1.9 "Leaked" Notes

[Katlan]

It's a level 43 bakarma elite dropping it. Normally that level of balaur would only drop hot blood and regular balaur hearts.

so then u can farm hearts in Indratu?
and fuck at stigma prices, selling FS now

[ling3rings0ul]

looks like the most expensive stigma is only 3m, anyone ditching theirs early?

[Corwen]

From the looks of it, yes you would be able to farm boiling bloods in indratu and any other balaur that level.

As for the stigmas, although there is a good chance those end up being the final prices, there is a chance that those prices end up changing since it is a test server after all. It would suck to sell FS for like 10m now along with every other ranger and then find out the NPC wants 25m for it and FS skyrockets back up with everyone trying to buy it back for a loss.

Suck? That would be hilarious.

It would be hilarious ... but it wont happen. Even if they dbled the prices on the test realm it wouldnt be that bad. They would have to triple prices just to reach the 10m number you sold it for. They are trying to make these things more accessible. While I dont agree with their prices (too low), it will do wonders for players who feel themselves to be gimp because they cant afford the 6m for Shriek, the 8m for UD, or the 25-30m combined for FS and BF.

People say money is "easy" in the endgame, but those are the people who LOVE to grind relentlessly boring mobs for hours and hours.

Hey i fucking love grinding Calydons. Don't try me.

[arus2001]

I never really made good money grinding, even. Before I resubbed to XI, I was working on my Miragent shoulders. I'd say it probably took me 1.5 hours on average to get a medal killing the crap in Theo non-stop. Of the vendor trash I got, I'd be lucky to break 150k. The only time it got good is it I got a piece of white gear, and even then it only bumped the number up to 3-400k. So, before taking into account cost of potions and powders, doing 20 of those runs just to get 3 mil is a fuckton of time. I think the shit's reasonable at those prices.

[Trichocyst]

Sold Unwavering Devotion today. Thinking of selling Ankle Snare. I'd sell Recovery Spell, but I can't live without it.

Thats my issue, FS is awesome, dunno if i can live w/o it lol

[Trocian]

Sold FS, and going to sell BF later today. I don't play that much, so I can live with it.

[SaviorSelf]

How much is UD from the NPC? I can't read korean like everyone else seems to be able to >_>

[Katlan]

doesnt matter, if its worth more then 5m id sell it lol

[SilverBreeze]

Holy shit I was killing those level 43 Balaur elites at like level 40-41, if that goes live and bloods drop that much, I'll be golden considering how much money I quit with. Could probably finish my Miragents finally lol.

[Katlan]

So i guess the korean ptr was updated and all npc stigma prices are doubled (from what they were) lol

hmm?

[arus2001]

Sounds like what it sounds like, which would make some of the L50 ones 6 mil or so. I think it's a bonehead move, but whatever, let 'em grind.

[Naiya]

^ I was more looking for a source but ok

1.9 Patch trailer out:

[Pyree]

That video is patch 2.0 and it was released when the patch was announced. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9jSN05RNBQ

[niwaar]

Any word on them making some world drop ability books NPC purchasable as well? I'm looking at you Wind/Water spirits...

Would really be sad that they made all these stigma's bought for cheap on NPC, but we still gotta dish out 5-7m on 4 fucking spirits.
