There is no durability, because theres already xp-loss and Death Penaulty..believe me, after a few death, you thank god you dont have to pay for armors too.

2 questions. Do we lose exp when we die because of pvp? Because then if yu were at the abyss fighting a mob and then a guy come and kill you, you would lose all that exp O.o
And there will be armor that you can get from pvp or from pve right? Because I prefer PVE and it would be unfair to clerics because even if we last long we would need help to kill many classes.

Like said above: Yes, you lose xp in PvP and PvE. And yes, you can get your armor also through pve with questing/raiding/armor smithing

That is very bad. O.o If a cleric can't kill a damn ranger for example and he is always attacking the cleric. The cleric would lose all the exp from the mobs in the abyss..

Afaik, there is no XP loss in PvP, you only losing Abyss Points.
If you were attacked by a mob and a pc at the same time, and the pc kills you, you only lose xp if the mob dealt more dmg on you than the player.

And how many exp we lose? The ultimate Aion FAQ doesn't tell.. And what Clerics will be able to kill in pvp? Templars and gladiators? And we get Abyss points if we clsoe to a guy of the same faction that kill other, like in wow?

In lower levels, you lose 5% of your current xp (there is no deleveling).

For the other answers, read back like 10 posts right in this thread.

I'd say you won't have to fight 1vs1 all the time, espacially as a cleric.

I'e got two questions that have been bothering me for some time now.

1. Will the faction language issues be resolved as in WoW? I mean will Asmodians and Eloys be able to talk to each other or perhaps we'll see "kek" instead of "lol" when playing Asmo and listening to Elyos?

2. One question I wanted to make thread about but it seems I don't have right privilages yet. What about the BBB (Big Bad Boss ) of Aion? Do we w know who's or what it's gonna be? I kind of think that it's gonna be Dreadgion. Especially after seeing the video where it smoked from the sky some Elyos flyby. It had this glowing red orbs, each with it's own HP which were shooting lightnings (or lasers or whatever that was :P). I kind of imagine that you either have to fight it by defeating all the orbs or perhaps after you destroy them all You get the chance to fight whatever is inside that thing . IMO that would be pretty cool ^^. So anyone knows how's it really gonna be?

No, they cant communicate, only via emotes.
Hopefully it says that way for pvp security reasons.

We know nothing about the Lore, only what's written on the official site.

We know about 1 boss, Sanduka, who is a Krall chieftain. He was in the '06 presentation democlient and was mentioned in some audio files, but we dont know if hes still in the game or not, or what could have been his role. We just have to wait for an english version - but i still dotn think they will reveal the whole story in beta.

I don't necessarily mean durability damage after a death, just from damage in general, or at the very least, physical damage.

I have two questions. 1. Is Abyss gonna have many channels or it will be only one zone without same copies of it. 2. Probly only Aion staff could answer: Have you started translating Aion? You gonna translate a)from korean to directly say german b)or first translate from korean to english and when from english to german. I'm asking this because B would take longer time to wait for us but quality would maybe be better.

It does not have channels.

Localizing was began near december of 2007, first they started with the english version, then around feb-march they started the french and german too - as i can remember.
Since a lot of content of the game is still not been developed/implemented, they cant finish it until then.

Some newbie questions from the World Serpent:

1) I've been pondering this in my head since I've known of Aion. It is seamless... right? In the sense of WoW? You can walk from zone to zone, no portals, no player restrictions? In all the time I have known of Aion, I've never asked this question, and I've always just strolled past wondering.
2) What have been the biggest complaints of CBT3? I heard it was the usual, like mobs being too hard or too easy.

From what I've seen it's seamless in the same way, but like going from Kalimdor to Eastern Kingdoms you get a loading screen, looks like from either the elyos/asmodian starting are
