Shared instances

there will be XP loss in PvE and there will not be de-leveling

What Calindor is saying is just a door that gets closed when the Epic Boss awakes, so no one else can enter and mess around while you're killing it.

But L2 do have instances now, you gain access to a special instanced dungeon when you conquer a fortress, a lot of exp and no people pking you, something like that. There are a few other instanced dungeon, but they have a time limit. I don't think there are bosses there, they're made just to grind.

WoW hasl the best raid encounters imo, very diff, huge, a joy to do, you need a lot of coordination ( lets be honest )
I stopped playing wow 3 years ago but haven't seen a decent raid fight since

But on topic, lineage has no trouble with it cause most of the time you don't even notice raids killing bosses, also cause its open world and no instances exist

i was purely responding to that post, which is why I dont understand:

maybe im just dumb




and lineage has shared dungeons..One group may have gone through a "run" and found a good exp spot, maybe another group wants to go further in past that first group, so they do the run, meet that group, PvP, then continue on. Aion isnt going to have shared instances, instances in Aion are for storyline quests, and the only reason they are an instance, is because they dont want you interfered with messing up the core storyline of the game...shared instances would defeat that purpose. Aion is going to have shared dungeon style runs, which is close to what L2 has, although like I mentioned before I would hope the strength and AI of the mob was more than just random mobs with an agro range.

yeah i totally agree the mobs were waaay to easy in L2 instance.

If ppl knew Antharas would spawn within an hour, they would still go and have the same pvp as if they knew it was within 5 hours. Long spawn windows are stupid and pointless...they just make you camp. If they wanted to RB to spawn at different times of the day they could just make the respawn time something like 5 days, 4 hours +/-1 hour, that way each time it spawned would be 4 hours later, and it would rotate through timezones.

and what exactly have I said about any schedule, cause i cant really find my words?

Point was shared instances, and you didn't give me a clear answer if there were shared instances or not in lineage...
but anyhow, it failed in AoC and I hope Aion will stand still with the shared instance situations that can happen

I beleive many ppl answered this already, its just not called 'shared instances' but the old school 'dungeons' And it has been already said numerous times that there will be very few instanced areas in Aion

Again the point was not that I called in wrong, shared instances or dungeons... point was the problem when more then 1 raid/party entered. But I give up it seems it is more important to ***** about other things...or maybe my question is just to hard for some...
But other people did answer it decently I there for my thanks ^^
