Cyan? I thought he was that moderator in EU o.O did he get a job offer at NC? Lol

So i was reading this post regarding the Luna shop

as a skins lover i’m excited about the wardrobe system that allows to register skins and use them as much as you want whenever you want !

And since we getting it tomorrow on NA here a few information I gathered from the community coordinator ( Cyan ) thread and his answers on comments regarding the Wardrobe:

you will get two free slots to register skins on them ( for more slots $$$ )

The skin cannot be removed from it slot but it can be over written with another skin

5 Piece skins will require you to register each piece in 1 slot ( so basically you need 5 slots )

As for how you acquire Luna currency it’s only by BCM !

to see other features of Luna shop check out the thread linked

I know a certain girlfriend that wants that

High Daeva: Successor of Eternity - Desert Fox Candy

Yet another new candy form, in a guise of a Desert Fox this time. You should be able to distinguish between the male and female forms.

The Desert Fox candy form grants the following stats:

- 4 Attack - 65 Accuracy - 3% Attack Speed - 3% Movement Speed

And unfortunately, there is currently no caster version available.

Monsanto Chief is horrible...

and I got to tell him that to his face after his interview on CBS This Morning. Approaching someone like this isn’t really my thing. But being so well behaved all the time doesn’t seem to be helping people. It made me really uncomfortable to do it. But that’s how we change. We must become uncomfortable. We must act out of our comfort zones for things to change. We must call out the people who are doing horrible things when they do them. Hugh Grant must be made to feel uncomfortable for what he allows his company to do in the world. That is why I told him what I did today and why I am sharing it with you.

Before a segment I was doing on the movie Spotlight with Mike Rezendes this morning, I was waiting in the green room watching Hugh Grant (Monsanto CEO not the Actor) worm his way through the strong questions he was getting from the CBS team. His handlers clearly have been working very hard with him to give him every slippery non-answer to every question he was asked. I was beside myself watching this guy who is responsible for so much misery and sickness throughout the world slime his way through his interview I could not hold my tongue. He came through the Green Room door ready to do high fives with his press agent and I simply told him this…

“You are wrong. You are engaged in monopolizing food. You are poisoning people. You are killing small farms. You are killing bees. What you are doing is dead wrong. “

A bead of sweat broke out on his head…”Well, what I think we are doing is good.”

“I am sure you do”

When people get paid the kind of money he gets paid their thinking becomes incredibly clouded and the first thing to go is their morality.

He says Monsanto needs to do a better job with their messaging.

Hugh, it’s not your messaging that makes you and your company horrible. It’s the horrible stuff you guys do that makes you and your company horrible. People don’t walk around making horrible stories up about good companies because they got nothing else better to do with their time. People like you and your company are horrible because… you are horrible.  No matter how much jumping around you do on morning shows (where no one can really nail you down for the horrible stuff you do) you will still always be horrible, and people will always greet you the way I did, when you go around trying to cover up the fact that you are horrible.

There is a lot more horrible stuff to look at here.

Monsanto’s greatest hit jobs.

In 2003, Monsanto settled a lawsuit for $700 million with 20,000 Anniston, AL residents who claimed that a Monsanto plant contaminated the local rivers, lakes, soil and air with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs).  Plaintiffs reported a range of health issues including cancer, birth defects, and neurological disorders.

In 2012, Monsanto settled a lawsuit with tens of thousands of plaintiffs in West Virginia for $93 million.  Residents of Nitro, WV claimed they had been poisoned by decades of contamination from cancer-causing chemicals used in the manufacturing of Agent Orange produced in a Monsanto plant.

In March 2015, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), an arm of the World Health Organization, concluded in a study that glyphosate, the active ingredient in Monsanto’s widely used weedkilling product Roundup, was “probably carcinogenic to humans.”

World Health Organization: http://www.iarc.fr/en/media-centre/iarcnews/pdf/MonographVolume112.pdf

Shortly after the IARC’s study was made public, France took steps to limit the sale of Roundup.  France has also banned the cultivation of genetically modified crops.

In September 2015, a French appeals court in Lyon upheld a decision that held Monsanto liable for poisoning a French farmer.  The grain farmer, Paul Francois, developed neurological damage after inhaling Monsanto’s weedkilling product Lasso.

In September 2015, two U.S. farm workers filed suit against Monsanto claiming that exposure to Roundup caused them to develop cancer.

You can find reports of Monsanto products being linked to cancer and other health issues all over the world, for example:

Argentina is the world’s third largest soy-producing country.  According to Mother Jones, nearly 100% of the soy crop is genetically altered, and Monsanto’s Roundup is very widely used.  As the use of pesticides and herbicides in Argentina has increased, cancer clusters have begun to develop around farming communities.  A 2010 study at the University of Buenos Aires also found that injecting glyphosate (the active ingredient in Roundup) into chicken and frog embryos caused the same sort of spinal defects that doctors have found to be increasingly prevalent in communities where farm chemicals are used.

Nothing justifies losing my character's looks.

I’ll join satyfears in being unpopular opinion puffin, because some stuff needs to be said after constant complaining and cries about Asmodians losing their traits - mane and claws. Today shit hit the fan with the release of Aion’s Immortal Saga Continues… vid. And oh boy, I was getting annoyed about that cries for months, and I need to get that out of my system. 1. As everyone knows, Asmodians were outnumbered for like 23445243423646 years and there has to be some reason behind that, right? And there is! The reason is Jungian archetypes. There was a dude called Carl Jung, who kinda pointed out that there are some elements of the “collective unconcious”; elements which we associate with some figures etc. In Aion’s case it means pretty much the fact that we unconciously thought that Asmodians are the evil race, while Elyos are the good guys. Nothing to blame yourself for, it just works like that, and NCSoft’s marketing didn’t help at all here, taken that on all the promo arts from “older times” Asmodians were portrayed as pretty much beasts: sharp face features, always glowing eyes, shabby clothes, really dark skin, so on and so forth. Definetely doesn’t make you think that Asmos will be the good guys who will be winning anything. Then you have Elyos: with their Lord looking like a porcelain doll and all Elyos Daevas having fair skin and all that. Ancient instincts, art ideas of angels, gods etc., what we’re being taught - it all influenced the fact that so many people went for Elyos. And most of them probably isn’t really aware of that. 2. Aesthetics. Of course that when you play a game that offers you character customization, you’re trying to make your toon look pretty, aesthetically pleasing. And… well, Asmodians were far from the typical understanding of “beautiful”. You know, claws, messy mane and dark purple skin aren’t usually seen as something pretty. And with time NCSoft started realizing that it isn’t really helping the balance issues and all that. That’s when they decided to change claws into pretty much metal accessories on fingers and they redid the mane and changed the feet as well (and BLESS THEM FOR THAT, because female feet having “build in” high heel were fuckin ridiculous), and all Asmodian concept arts stopped showing them as beings with really REALLY dark skin. It’s process of marketing, of trying to deal with the race inbalance on servers. 3. For a long time now, all the cash shop skins were hiding the mane. There was never any particular reason for that, but I assume it’s about how problematic it is to stuff mane into some of the skins, especially the female ones. I’ll use wedding dresses as example, because we have quite plenty of them. Bunch of people is sitting here, screaming “then hide only tail, but leave the back mane!” or “put the tail over the dress!”. And both options will just look awkward as fuck. If you think that your Asmo gurl won’t look weird in short dress which hides tail, but leaves the back mane, then you’re wrong, because it WILL look weird. Same as tail going “over” it. Imagine one of those bigass wedding dresses with tail awkwardly put over the back of it. Ew. Songweaver sets are enough of example to show that frilly dresses and mane don’t go well together. 4. This is the part where I should call names, but I’ll restrain myself. Some of the biggest “LEAVE ASMODIAN TRAITS ALONE” apologetics have their toons looking pretty much like an Elyos. You know, white skin, white hair, white dresses, flower weapons. And that’s pretty much most of Aion toons, you can rarely find toons with dark skin (especially when we’re thinking of shade like green or purple). Nothing to cry about that, if you were prancing around with white skin and cash-shop skin that was hiding your mane. Crying about claws is pretty much out of place too, since… you know, you don’t really see the claws when you play. 5. Okay, I know that it’s partially about RP. I know that some people just LOVE the Aion RP almost too much, but I guess it’s okay… whatever tickles your pickle, right? So those people will need lore explaination, so lemme find something to explain… hm… wait… Okay, I got one: evolution. Balaurea is a place with pretty much NO snowfields, and that’s where most of Daevas spend their time. The only snowfields you had in Balaurea, were in Katalam and Danaria, which are sleeping with the fishes now, but still: bigger part of Kata/Dana were some forests and stuff like that. Stuff which doesn’t include snow. Don’t get me started on Levinshor and Enshar/Cygnea. There’s probably +25°C whole the time there, hell, in Enshar/Cygnea it’s probably like +35°C (for people using Fahrenheit - it’s a little bit below body temperature, so yeah, pretty hot). So let’s say that due to evolution, Asmodian lost their mane and claws just proved useless over time. 6. Those changes DON’T affect your gameplay. So to those who wanna start crusades because of that - chill. There are bigger problems game-wise than that.

BONUS RANT!

Loot is only deserved when killed via Antriksha's Landing. If a steamroll faction can only get it like this, loot is not deserved.

Winds of Fate II - Faction Base Invasion

For the people who missed their Primum, Teminon invasion days, there will be much fun ahead for you.

In addition to flipping bases, artifacts, fortresses and PVP, there is an insanely quick method for adding points to the faction incentive system. You can literally do an invasion of the opposing faction’s base and kill trophies that offer a huge chunk of points (see screenshots).

And of course, this is no walk in the park, expect tower deaths, NPC zergs while fighting off the opposing faction players themselves. Only recommended for the most bravest and dedicated of players.
