Ok excuse the nube question (especially if it's already been answered in this 100 page thread) but why Korea? I mean the Testing and the sound track etc? seems an odd place to do it all? is the company making it based there?

Is it going to be implemented ingame where you can only be one race per account? Or can you have one of each race on one account? I remember hearing that it was only one type per account, but I can't remember where I saw it. Thanks in advance for the help.

Not per account.

One faction / server. If you wanna play with an other faction, you need to choose an other server.

1) What's the server capacity?

2) I read somewhere there will be open instanced dungeons. So that the opposite faction can enter the dungeon and make the lifes of PvE'rs harder.. True or not?

3) Will be there closed instanced dungeons?

4) Does armor(stats) really benefit your character...? That it is really worth getting those items.

5) Last annoying question... Can you use your wings to flee from combat?

5000 online player.

True.

3) Will be there closed instanced dungeons?

Yes, but only a few.

4) Does armor(stats) really benefit your character...? That it is really worth getting those items.

The successn in Aion is probably least gear-based than in other mmos, ofc better stats never hurts.

5) Last annoying question... Can you use your wings to flee from combat?

Yes. It was kinda annoying for melee players in previous cbts, but they fixed it with grappling skills and such.

@ Lvl 20 you receive the quest which explain stigmas and will grant you 2 slots. You will get 1 slot for every 10 level later on, so you'll have 5 slots @ lvl50.

,but can you save up stigma stones overtime in the warehouse or inventory?

Of course.

Also can you re-use one stigma stone?

Yes.

Question: when you attack a mob, is it auto attack (one click and the char starts smashing the mob into pieces) or is there an ability to spam the left mouse button (one leftclick one slash)?

What is the Abyss?

A unstable rift between the world of Asmodae and Elsea if im not mistaken.
this is the place where PvPvE is active and where most of the raids will occur.
The abbys wil also be a place where fortress wars are (100-400 players)

You will also find rare items (abyssal armor/weapon)
and special materials to craft items.

Artifacts to aid in raids are also found in the abyss.

I hope i provided you with enaugh information, although i must say that this is not everything.

Question regarding AP acquisition.

- Abyss points are lost when you are killed by enemies. Defeat by higher rank enemy will result in the loss of fewer points than the loss resulting from a death caused by a lower rank enemy.
- Killing a player with a higher rank than you will award more Abyss points. Less points will be deducted if you were killed by a player with a higher rank.
- Legion’s Merit Scores will increases as the Legion’s members collect points.

Will there be a cap on the amount of points you can lose per death or gain per kill? Reason I ask is L2 olympiad points work on a similar basis, just kind of the opposite (If someone with very high points loses to someone with low points, they wont lose as much points as if that person also had very high points). My concern is that if you have an absurd amount of AP and the amount of points you lost was only based on % without a cap, in one death you could potentially lose a large amount of points that might have taken days or weeks to accumulate...and I think that is just not a fair system.

[BigBellyBob]

just reading the post in here about AP and loosing/gaining them. Made me think, what about inventory? I take it that when you die you still keep it all? also when you get killed in the abyss what happens? ie where do you go? do you just get put back to where ever it is in your races capital city you started? I remember reading something about binding yourself to towns/villages?

In Aion will you lose EXP, and will you lose wepaons. I do not think many who are not Asian will buy this game, since I'm not Asian and I do not have other people playing my account. I do not like playing for hours, then dying to a mob or player, and lose all that EXP, which took hours to get. Also lsoing wepaons, is not fun either, since you worked for a few days to get that amazing weapon, or gear you wanted, then you die to a PVP match or a mob and the item drops. This will lead to many people leaving a game like this. This game looks great and if these questions could be answered, it woud be much appreciated.
