The Stigma System

Aion's Stigma System allows players to further customize their characters, so that players of the same class are not necessarily identical in their abilities.

Sealed within each Stigma Stone is a powerful skill that makes a significant addition to your character's aresenal. While some of these stones are readily available, others can be very rare and therefore prestigious. Stigma Stones can be equipped on your character through the Stigma panel. The number of Stigma Stones you can equip depends on the level of your character.


1. Number of Stigma Slots

Each character can equip up to 5 stigma stones.
However, with the current level cap at 45, you will be able to equip a maximum of 4.

Level 20: 2 Stigma Slots
Level 30: 3 Stigma Slots
Level 40: 4 Stigma Slots


The Stigma Panel


2. Stigma Quest

In order to gain access to your stigma panel, you will need to complete a quest.
The quest can be acquired at Level 20, and is common for all classes of the same race.


You will be asked to complete an extensive quest to earn your first stigma slots.


3. Stigma Stones

Upon completing the stigma quest you will receive your first stigma stone. Other stigma stones can be acquired as drops from monsters. Regular monsters drop stigma stones very rarely, while named monsters are more likely to have one in their possession.

Stigma stones can be traded, so you can always acquire it from other players if you don't want to test your luck at a drop.


You'll often get other classes' stigma stones as drops


4. Equipping Stigma Stones

In order to equip a stigma stone you will need to talk to a Stigma Master, located in major cities.
You will also need to have the required number of Stigma Shards. The number depends on the level of the Stigma Skill.

Stigma shards are common drops from monsters in the Abyss area. You also get shards as a reward from the Stigma quest (1 time only).

Shards consumed when equipping a Stigma stone will not be returned if you unequip the stone, so be very sure when you choose which Stigma stones to equip.


The Stigma master asking for 172 shards for an equip.


5. Stigma Skills per Class

Note: Changes made to the stigma system since CBT are for testing purposes and are not necessarily final. For example, it doesn't necessarily mean you won't be able to equip other classes' stigmas forever.

Thanks for the translation, Hellrose! If I could read Korean well enough, I could try to help heh. ><

By "equipping" a stone, does that mean we can "unequip" it and retrieve the stone? (Otherwise once you use it, there's no way to take it out, you can only replace it or something).

Riku

yes you can remove them and you will not lose the stone.

churn

nice!
