If one were able to fly (KOS npcs and flight limitations aside) from the top to the bottom, crossing the halfway point (the abyss) would necessitate a flip of the y axis, and there would also be no gravity whatsoever.

As it is, the portals can get chars around the tricky details, but if the devs plan on implementing this "tier system" of abyss locations, would these locations have to be mirrored in orientation? The abyss should be like super mario galaxy. Problem solved.

The Abyss itself is on an other dimensional plane, its a breach between worlds. It has a core (middle layer of all), where gravitation (applied in Abyss) is originated from. Abyss and Atreia are two different physical planes, different rules, different reality. The atreian gravity does not affect the Abyss.

Hey everyone. I'm pretty new to the forum, although I've been part of the source for awhile. Basically my main question is about CBT and OBT in NA.
1st. Does anyone have any info on when it's supposed to take place? I've tried finding it on the source but it's dificult.
2nd. How and where would I sign up for it?

Yeah...so that's about it. Hopefully in the coming months I'll get to know you guys more. :]

Few of them had been revamped, and more had been added.

How about party setups? What is the max number of party members? Is there going to be similar to L2 for example - mage pts, archer pts?

[CPK1]

6 players to a party - diversified class parties seem to be the way to go in Aion (tank, healers, and dps).

Seems like a bit of a cop out to me lol. I thought (up till this point) that the abyss existed on the border between the territorries of the two races, you know, like normal war zones heh. Why else would most of the fighting take place there? So the abyss and the fragments of stuff floating around in there are not even part of the original planet?

When the Tower had been destroyed, in that moment (since it carried the balance of this world) the planet (and everything on it) turned into this insane, tweaked smg as it is. That was the time the Abyss appeared.

In retaliation, the Empyrean Lords banished the Balaur, sealing them inside the Abyss, an unstable rift between the two shattered halves of Atreia. Recently however, the Balaur have managed to escape from their prison, and threaten this fragile world with their fury once again.

So they fight there to find out how the Balas could escape from it, how they can seal them again/how to completely destroy the Balaur.

Nope. You don't lose any of your equipment.

You can have PvP in the Abyss and through "Rifts" in the areas of the enemy faction.

This is a really nub question but wat is the difference between a closed and open beta. Isn't it like open is like open to the public and closed beta is for like only pplz who are invited or a first come first served basis? If closed beta is like that... i must like be omfg over registration cause im pretty sure others will react the same way and like would tackle a person just for an account for the CB
