An MOP article confirms rumors that Aion Classic is getting 1.5 next month: https://massivelyop.com/2021/09/16/aion-nas-producer-hypes-up-the-arrival-of-new-updates-coming-to-retail-and-classic-in-a-latter/

Daeva of Ho-ing, I mean, Betrayal

Can we talk for just a moment about what a complete and utter douchebag this NPC is?

His info reads: “Thersites is a Daeva of Betrayal who strolls the Sky Canal located between the Divine Road and the Sky Garden in Sanctum. He seems very sad.“

“Sad” ... right ...

More like: He’s too cowardly to deal with the messes he creates, he has YOU (the player) do it for him.  From killing his lovers (Eninte, Simunai) to dealing with his illegitimate child (Harmone), this guy really takes the cake!

I think I skipped most of his related quests in retail, but after playing through them in Classic, I really REALLY dislike this guy.

All bout dem Groggies

If you are level 45 or higher, you should now have a daily quest that you can do for Groggies (A/E).  That’s a form of currency you can use to get the quest items needed to open up your advanced stigma slot.  (thereby avoiding SR!)

Once Dark Poeta drops, you can opt to grab your last advanced stigma quest items from there OR do the Groggie dailies, so unless you plan to live in DP, START DOING THESE NOW!   :)

Asmodians see Chaokiki in Pandaemonium, Elyos see Chaokin in Sanctum.

Dear cleric ...

... just because I CAN solo heal SR doesn’t mean I WANT to, I don’t care how much MB you have.

[daevicflux]

No, wait, I have a quest!

When you won’t let friends self res because you want to get this bloody thing done.  XD 

[daevicflux]

Updated abyss siege schedule ... I’ll fix my calendar as soon as I get a few minutes to put brain cells together and get it done.  XD

I finally hit 45 and got my “good buffs” slotted, yay!  now working on unlocking my other advanced stigma slot and trying to get to 46 so I can start doing TLabs and get some better gear!  :D

Free Siel’s Aura this weekend

Per this post on Aion website:

Free 3-Day Siel’s Aura 

Starting today at 10 a.m. and lasting through Monday, August 23, all players in Aion Classic will be able to claim three FREE days of Siel’s Aura! This bonus will be most notable for players who have not yet made the jump from our Free Trial to Siel’s Aura, so be sure to try it out! The benefits are numerous, and we hope many Daevas get to make the most of them! Existing Siel’s Aura subscribers will get to add the extra time to their current balance.

Claim Your Free Aura

To claim your free 3-day Siels’ Aura, head into the Quna shop. There you will find a free 3-day aura, which will be automatically activated and added to your existing time balance once it’s claimed.

You can collect this 3-day bonus anytime from Friday, 10 a.m. PDT until Monday, 10 a.m. PDT and then discover the benefits! Only one 3-day bonus per account can be claimed.

The Benefits

There are many perks to Siel’s Aura. Most notably, players will find that their XP rate is not reduced by 50% with an active Siel’s Aura. Additionally, players can acquire Kinah, Essence Tap items, and acquire all rarities of items while engaging in open-world play.

Players also gain the ability to earn AP via quests, and make direct trades with other players and private shops.

For a visual representation of these perks and more, see the chart below:

Other Perks

Siels’ Aura isn’t the only perk currently coming your way. Players of all factions can currently receive a bundle of potions & scrolls to help them navigate their way to their capital city, so long as they have reached level 10. In addition, Asmodian players on Israphael are being blessed with XP Charms at various levels between 15-35 to help with their progression from now through September 1.

It’s an excellent time to jump into Aion Classic in earnest! We hope that the boosts above will help make it easy to get fully underway and accelerate your advancement towards becoming a top Daeva in no time.

Happy hunting!

A blast from the past!  I was flipping through the image gallery module on the RF legion website and found these old screenshots I had uploaded from back in the early days of retail (2009-10).  My original Harley spiritmaster!  :3  ♥

[daevicflux]

Got a few more to add to the list:

Stigma Quests - see also Advanced Stigma Slots

Costumes in Aion

Gatherable Morphing Recipes

Siege Weapon Ingredients

Theobomos Lab (TLabs) Walkthrough

Dark Poeta info (not in game yet, but coming soon in big patch)

Miragents and Fenris Quests (not in game yet, but coming soon in big patch)

Aion Classic Korea 1.5 Update (hopefully we are getting this soon!)

Resources!

It’s amazing how much I remember about this game, but I’ve had to do a lot of googling to find things I couldn’t quite pin down on my own.  Most of my bookmarks and saved goodies were deleted when I retired from retail, but I’ve found a few things that still work.  I’ll try to update this as I find other resources.  Feel free to reblog and add any of your own!

Gathering locations by level

My old Macros guide

Yustiel’s Aion item database, also crafting and gathering info

MMORPG Life’s Aion database, also quests/gathering and guides

Even sitting down, he’s still taller than me.   XD

FINALLY got both my crafts experted!   Proof that you can do two ... you gotta get one maxed to 449, then start experting your other.  And you get a special title for experting two crafts.  :)

Draupnir Cave and Indratu shortcut

(I apologize now, I don’t have the Asmo equivalent info at this time!)

I’m sure by now everyone has seen posts in LFG asking for DC parties with the shortcut.  No?  You will soon.  ;)

The shortcut to Indratu and Draupnir Cave areas are in Heiron.  You do the [Group] Hokuna Matata quest to unlock it.  It's located in the waterfall in the pond on the right in the Kishar Village (just up from the Kishar Observation Post).

Note: Here’s a video on gliding to Hokuna from New Heiron Gate.

Stigma Refresher

I had to look all this up because I couldn’t remember at what level we should have what quest(s).  :)

Level 20

No Escaping Destiny (A) | A Sliver of Darkness (E)

Level 40

A Suspicious Call (A) | Price of Goodwill (E)

Level 45

[Group] The Shulak's Stigma (A) | [Group] The Shattered Stigma (E)

[Group] A Booklet on Stigma (A) | [Group] How To Use Stigma (E)

Level 50

A Future Threat (A) | A Secret Summons (E)

[Group] Essential Material (A) | [Group] Door Into Darkness (E)

[Group] Secret of the Greater Stigma (A) | [Group] Stop the Shulaks (E)

That should be all of them (or, all I could find for patch 1.5), but holler at me if anything’s missing or incorrect.  :)
