Thank you for the fast reply

Does this game have semi-proper physics for jumping?
ie: If you jump off a rock or ledge, and immediately mouse spin 180 degrees, do you keep going on your original trajectory?

In certain other games you'd just "u-turn" in mid air and land back on the rock. It made my heart heavy.

Also, can skills and attacks be executed in mid-air, or do you have to be on the "ground."

Many thanks you.

We havent seen like this so far, but that doesnt mean it isnt in the game.

If you mean 'while jumping': you have to be on the ground.
But theres flyin in the game, so theres possible to use skills in mid-air:PP

As ive said, since we havent seen an experimental jump like this, we cant confirm nor deny it.

Ask one of our testers Here to do one for you

Nice pic btw

So here's something I haven't thought of or seen before. Many people are talking about 'Linking' items. Now, as a former WoW player, I have to say that the item linking system is fantastic. Is this the type of thing that we can expect in Aion as well?

Other than WoW, I've only played FFXI (up to about level 15, I might add...), and I didn't notice this functionality in it. Did Lineage 2 have item links?

Lineage 2 didn't when I played, iirc, I've seen screenshots in which Aion does though. Seems to work pretty much like WoW.

What is the deal with the transformations? I cant find any information about them on the wiki or the faq.

I'm watching videos of people turning into panthers and dragons and its like common day knowledge to the other players around them.

Some, (If not most.) of the transformations are executed when you begin a certain part of a quest, like sneaking into enemy territory, and getting so-and-so item. We've seen a panther, a corn stalk, a parrot, a wolf, and some of the NPC races seem to be transformations.{And a few more I can't remember.}

3 Questions

Are the Developers/Admin/Staff prepared to deal with the industry of ingame item selling for real life money?

Will this game have the option to run it in a window?

Do they have any security that protects against hacking/Exploiting?


Had to get those out of the way.

Thanks in advance!

I have 2 theory for that:

1. Yellow if its full (4000), green if its not.

Or

2. As ive observed in one of the pics, theres a small circle next to the DP bar, with a number in it (on the pic it was a 1.). Its possible that there are more levels of DP (1. 4000 2. 8000, etc), so every level has its own color.
