i noticed that i couldn't use my skills properly while flying, like there was some kind of delay on them? as if i was lagging or something

like... i would fly around to kite her, then stop, use stunning shot... but it won't activate, so i press it like 3-4 times and finally it works

it only seems to do it when in flight when i stop suddenly and try to use an ability?

is this normal or is it lag? ]]> Ranger kyris? http://www.aionsource.com/forum/showthread.php?t=90448 http://www.aionsource.com/forum/showthread.php?t=90369&goto=newpost Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:47:37 GMT I was thinking about it and after looking at all our choices it seems to be a close comparison between these 2.

Item Comparison - Aion Armory

Now one is from S-Rank Dark Poeta final boss and the other is the 900k+ AP weapon which also requires 93 gold medals.

As you can tell the DP bow has more base damage, HP, Acc, but doesn't have any Knowledge on it which may or may not be a big deal I am not sure.

Since the DP bow has way better crit and attack stats any way you spin it the loss of 1 socket which will yield 85hp/5attack/15crit is still made up with the other stats on the bow.

Now it comes down to the +10% player damage which is a ton but is having 15 higher base 20 top end, 1attack, 21 crit(or 6 attack 6 crit if you use a crit manastone to make the socket difference) 317 hp a harder hitting weapon then 100 knowledge and 10% player damage?

My vote is the DP bow rather then the AP bow because its easier to get and because of the higher damage and overall better damage stats will make up for the 10% player damage easily.

What do you guys think? ]]> Ranger Syntex http://www.aionsource.com/forum/showthread.php?t=90369 http://www.aionsource.com/forum/showthread.php?t=90331&goto=newpost Fri, 20 Nov 2009 18:04:48 GMT hia, long story short i equiped gale arrow stigma and since than from time to time i cant use normal attack till i wount use gale arrow skill ... hia, long story short

We finally gave up at 1min and tried to get as many other chests as we could with one aggroing everything while the rest tried to get as many as possible. Course we all died.

Anyhoo, so how do you get the dang thing open now? Seemed liked a complete waste of time. We did get two AP drops from the other chests but of course one person won both rolls.

When i before easily hit full buffed for 5k, i now hardly go over 3.5k crits. Same as normal hits, when they were around 1.5k to 2k now they hardly ever go over 1k unbuffed.

Is it just me or is anyone else noticing a huge drop in damage from physical attacks?

I don't RP and could care less about the quest storylines, and running around talking to different NPC's is boring. (L2 class change quests burned me out :) ) I was getting great XP on the Ice Claw warriors just outside the entrance, but at 31 they are gray now.

What quests would you guys say are essential for either titles or getting gear. I've been trying to figure it out on my own and can't seem to find an "essential quest" list anywhere. Are the Ice Claw quests worth doing?

Are there any good elite grinding spots for 31-34 until I can get to the mist manes? I don't mind XPing in the abyss, it just seems that the elites are better XP/hour.

I ended up dying about 12 times because of various issues, some player related, some ISP related. I'm about 12million xp in the hole. In trying to wait for a rifting group to do the belusian part of the quest, I tried farming khq... that's where the lag came in.. got 2 molars before frigging mobs were using their skills 10m-20m away from me and killing me. Also tried doing aether insanity killing the insane indratus... ended up dying another 3 times there. I even tried farming non elites in the abyss and lag ate me there too.

Needless to say after sunday morning I just turned the game off and haven't been back.

Here's a question.

is it worth it for me to farm any more molars for the gear at 41 or is itjust more worth it to sell the 130 molars I have now?

If I farm lephs, I'm at 120 or so medals and the leph jewelry is only slightly better than what I'm wearing.

Should I totally forget about the farming BS now at 41 and go straight for xenophon's bow and leave the farming behind and just grind for cash?

I'm really starting to bore of solo or small group kite grinding elites, I've been at it since about 36. What exactly is there to look forward to in the stretch between 41-45?

I've also got some 33 gear that probably should disappear but I'm stuck between buying new green, finding someone to craft me blue high 30low40 stuff or farming the molar chestpiece... in which case I'm just over 200 molars away from. I am probably well overdue on new gear but the alure of free gear from the molar quests had me dazzled. ]]> Ranger Sarubethiel http://www.aionsource.com/forum/showthread.php?t=89606 http://www.aionsource.com/forum/showthread.php?t=89595&goto=newpost Wed, 18 Nov 2009 19:34:01 GMT Aion™ Online: The Official Aion Fantasy MMORPG Website - PowerWiki (http://powerwiki.na.aiononline.com/aion/Bows%3A+41-50) Go shopping, work out...

Check out the Fabled Armor sets , leather gets 3 bonus stats(not the best of stats either) while other types get 5. How fair is that?

Another thing to note which makes it really easy to identify the poor itemization, check out the level 33 expert noble strong leather set. If you're wearing the gold version of the whole set, you won't get a noticeable upgrade of the armor until you craft level 50 balic items (dark dragon king set) or abyss gear.

Expert Noble Strong Leather Pauldrons (gold)
Evasion +15
HP + 80
Attack + 9
4 Sockets

Expert Noble Strong Durable Leather Pauldrons (gold)
Evasion + 17
HP + 87
Magical Resistance + 15
4 Sockets

Noble Black Dragon King's Leather Pauldrons (gold)
Evasion + 17
Attack + 10
5 Sockets

IF you were able to craft the GOLD version of Black Dragon King's Pauldrons, you'll get a measly upgrade of 1 attack , 2 evasion and 1 socket AND lose 80 HP. You have to consider that is a balic craft and every attempt costs millions of kinah (whether you farmed the mats or you bought them, the value is the same) compared to trying to get a gold proc from the level 33 set.

There are so many sets in between the level 33 Expert Noble Strong leather set and the level 50 balic craft set (Noble Dark Dragon King) that are not even worth crafting.

Here's another comparison:

Expert Noble Strong Leather Gloves (gold)
Evasion +15
HP + 80
Attack Speed + 6%
4 Sockets

Expert Noble Strong Durable Leather Pauldrons (gold)
Evasion + 17
HP + 87
Magical Resistance + 15
4 Sockets
(yes, no attack speed)

Noble Black Dragon King's Leather Gloves (gold)
Evasion + 17
Attack + 7% (woot 1% upgrade,IF you get a gold proc)
5 Sockets (1 socket, IF you get a gold proc)
A blue version of this glove is weaker than the gold level 33 gloves, and trying to get a gold proc between the two is not even comparable in costs.
Each attempt on Expert Noble Strong Leather Gloves cost around 300-400k on our server.
Each attempt on Noble Black Dragon King's Leather Gloves cost around 4-5million kinah on our server.

There's also the level 43 set (Expert Noble Tough Leather set) and the level 48 set (Expert Noble Tough Durable Leather Pauldrons) that I can bring in comparison but then again its not even an upgrade worthy spending millions on if you already have a gold piece of the level 33 set.

This is a comparison of crafted gear ONLY. I know there are upgrades available in PVE dungeons but that is beside the point. You would think an item with a higher level should have BETTER stats than its predecessor but that is not the case.

TLDR: Craft the gold pieces of the level 33 set and you don't need to worry about armor anymore until you get your abyss gear or level 50 gold crafts. I won't even get on the Fabled armor set of leather, besides the fact that you need 1000 platinum coins for each piece, compare them yourself and you'll see why LEATHER is the most poorly designed armor type in the game. ]]> Ranger Lufres http://www.aionsource.com/forum/showthread.php?t=89458 http://www.aionsource.com/forum/showthread.php?t=89394&goto=newpost Wed, 18 Nov 2009 08:22:49 GMT Hia guy!! i was just wondering why the 2Handed Weapons rewards with Coins Got Atk Spd and the Bow Doesnt???isnt a bow Two handed? i really cant see...
