[ASSASSIN, CLASSIC] Balance Asmodian/Elyos Assassin Skills

  • Please Gameforge, balance the skills on Asmodian assassin to compete vs Elyos assassin.

    Elyos have much better skillset: silence, 2x more magic resists, etc.
    It's much better in PvP.

    This is a thing that the assassin community has been asking everywhere for a long time, so we wanted to make this petition here officially.

    It is known that Asmodian sin gets a little better in Korean Classic next patches, but still, Elyos is/will be much better.

    Either make all skills the same for both races, or just give Asmo more silences, or magic resists, or other utilities like stuns, whatever.

    Please consider this, in order to make AION CLASSIC a better game that we will love again. <3

  • you are aware that gameforge is a publisher and not a developer? anything they want changed (specifically class wise) has to be done by NCsoft... and guess what NC has not really done over the last 13 years? balance (assassin here too, but it won't keep me from rolling this again)

    Sinnerfassend lesen... schwierig, ne?

    Well, Gameforge did talk to NCsoft regarding various aspects about the Classic EU release, and was able to change things, for example experience (ncsoft wanted more faster leveling and gameforge didnt), so they found a middle-ground regarding that (this was talked in yesterday's stream too).

    So if they can change some things for the EU release, they can change some skills too.

    No, they only changed things related to monetization and ingame economy, nothing actual class balancing.

    Gameforge is a publishing company (unlike NCSoft who is also/mostly developer of games) and as such they have literally no knowledge/experience with balancing the games in regards of skills etc.


    They won't just request a skill changes based on players feedback because that's just asking for trouble and accusations of favorism etc.

    I understand the difference between publisher and developers, but if all Europe players demand balance, NCSoft may start balancing it.

    Just make our voices heard, dont just agree with what we have just because "it is what it is".

    This also applies to any aspect of the game, not only classes, we must complain about any other problems, like "mob nerfed drops" if its a problem too.

  • Come on, get real, if they haven't bothered to change it when it was more necessary, why would they do it now?

    Because now its releasing on EU and we can make things happen, dont lose faith, just ask for what u want

  • When you'll get older, you will at some point realize, if lucky, that systems have their own life and it's not worth bothering with them.


    The way to earn money in gaming and the effort put into game features are part of the system. Systems don't care about you or me, unless they can benefit from us. Systems care only about their own survival and to do that they will do anything.


    Supporting systems feeds them energy, fighting against gives them energy too, they need our energy to stay alive. There are always enough naive people who keep thinking they can change systems. They can't, the only way to make a change is to change yourself and systems will lose a grip on you and if enough people do that they will just rot away.


    There is no free lunch.


    Read and reread this message until it becomes a part of you and in the future you will thank a stranger for revealing you an important wisdom. It applies to every field of life, cause systems are everywhere.


    P.S.: remember, if NC an GF wanted to make you happy and please people who are eager about Aion classic, they could make a server for Aion classic, just as it was with all necessary gamebreaking feature they updated and repaired through time. They have all the necessary data. Keeping one server for couple of months to see if people would gather like flies on the crap isn't a great cost compared to all other expanses related to other games they keep up already. They dont wan't see you happy, they just want your money.


    Hmm, I start to leak too much wisdom, hope you get the point.

  • lol tldr thx for the bump though
