Discussion on the Possible Merger Server AION CLASSIC

    Hello everyone,


    I'd like to open a discussion regarding the situation of the Tahabata server in Aion Classic. As many of you are aware, Tahabata has a lower population compared to Atreia, making it challenging to find players to interact with and tackle in-game challenges. In order to enhance the gaming experience for everyone, I'd like to discuss the possibility of a merger server or other solutions for Tahabata.

    Current Situation of Tahabata:

    • Low population
    • Difficulty in finding groups for in-game activities
    • A dedicated but limited community

    Why a Merger Server Could be Beneficial:

    • It would increase the population and in-game activity
    • Improve the ease of forming groups and engaging in high-level activities
    • Make the server more attractive to new players

    I'd like to hear your thoughts on the matter. What do you think about the idea of a merger server or other possible solutions? Do you have any suggestions on how to improve the situation? I invite everyone to share their experiences and ideas.


    Additionally, it would be helpful if we could gather data on the current population of Tahabata and player opinions. Anyone interested in contributing this information, please, let it be known.


    Please remember to maintain a respectful and constructive discussion. The goal is to enhance the gaming experience for all Aion Classic players. Thank you for your participation!

    Hello there!

    I don't know if you're playing on the elyos or the asmodian side of Tahabata.
    But playing myself on Tahabata-Asmodian, I don't feel exactly like you, at least not at the moment.


    Population on Tahabata :

    It is true the current population on Tahabata is lower than on Atreia. Judging from people in raid, the population on Atreia is around 1500vs1000 (Elyos/Asmo) when it is around 600/450 on Tahabata. From my raid assistant, there is always 25-30 new names on each raid (both side included), so population turn over the days. And if you take into account people not coming to raid, I believe you can add 20-50% of population easily.


    World PvP :

    From what i'm already seeing on Tahabata, I believe fusing serv will turn PvP into zerg-land. People already complain about getting 6v1 then 12v6 when some fight appear in front of the fort, I can't imagine how it explodes on Atreia.


    Raid :

    When merging can be a huge plus on PvE, in my opinion it will be a malus on RvR.

    Raiding with 500 people or raiding with 1500 people leads to really different results.

    When it may sounds better "more pvp, split tactits, more strategies" and so on, it also means doors/dux doesn't last more than 2min, when they last for 5-10min on Tahabata, allowing people to come back for a second / third try on PvP.

    Also, except for the divine, every fort can be taken down on Tahabata. The divine cannot be taken down as long as one faction doesn't fully give up on it, yet maybe this can change when everyone will reach their 55.


    Economy :

    When I chatted with some Atreia Asmodian a bit before the 2.0, price on both server were around the same (we compared some stigmas, balaur blues scales, some pots/scrolls, enchant stones).
    Fusing won't lead to an issue on this point, but it also means both server are stable as they are (when a server starts to die, prices go up).


    PvE :

    I can't let you say that high-level activities is dead on Tahabata (at least on Asmodian side). it is true it's easier to find those activities if you're playing Chanter/SM than sorcerer or ranger, but this has always been true on every serv.

    it's also true that you'll be more successful in forming a group at 21.00 the Friday or 14.00 the week-end than at 9.00 the monday.

    But yet, if you build your group on LFG, there are people applying. Maybe not much yet, cause Tahabata is known to be a chilling server compared to Atreia (yet we had 2 people lvl 55 less than 24h after the release), but people will end up being 55 and do their BT as well.


    Personal conclusion :
    Merging doesn't seem to be necessary today. Server are just different, some might prefer low population server to recognize names when they go out, not to feel overwhelmed by the number every times, and some might prefer the constant and faster activities and try hard a bit more about things.

    well, everyone has their opinion based on the reality they withdraw into their world, from my point of view, alisa not only mine but dozens and hundreds of other people from tahabata the server is dead and dominated by the elyos, there is not enough asm to confrontation in pvp on gelk or on any map for the asmodian side, not to mention that the dungeon search bar is a joke compared to atreia, everything we are going to do here is more difficult due to the simple fact that there is no population, than 100 almost half players are bots, and the other half don't pvp. For those who are just starting out in the game on the Asmodian side, it is not a challenge, but I would vote either because there is a server merger, or I would sell a transfer pass to those who want to leave Tahabata

    Go to any actual siege.... I managed to play for both sides. Equality is observed on both sides with small errors.

    If theres a vote: I want to stay Tahabata only pls, thx.

    Ofc since you are unchallenged and can gain weight from EZ ap, so much that your premades started to rekt Atrei asmos in TIAKH/C.DRED.

    Btw GF only cares about ely opinion and they are happy swatmg  my name is nobody , so yea you have a solution - you can restart on Atrei because there wont be a merge. Retial has 4 (un)dead servers and still no merge to 2. :rolleyes:

    Sorry dude, don´t understand a single word what you try to tell me, can someone translate into normal language pls, thx?


    For my playstyle an unmerged Tahabata is perfect. I can do any quests instantly because I find my questmobs where I want them and more important, when I want them. For a lesser populated server you find easy groups for everything and even the prices at broker are decent. No merge needed for me, I don´t need tons of salty pro-gamers around me (see quote above)........ :D

    Splinter abuser Tahabata ely.. translated. Killing prisoners/test subjects in tiakh just to be rude etc.. You ganked Alukina and whole Belu for 2 weeks before patch 2.0 non-stop.. etc.. etc.. etc... Typical ely answer, you dominate Taha so its a safe haven for you to pve = a lot of ap and you ganked low levels even in Zone 1.

    You don't have to engage with Atrei asmo on the battlefield so you dodged them and choose the EZ way on TAHA and the gap gets bigger and bigger vs Taha asmo but ofc you don't mind. You see "win, win, win - ap ap ap".

    While I see a server becoming like Stormwing/Old Telemachus/Retail from asmo perspective. Asmos aren't your plaything and they will be feed up with it eventually = Retail Reloaded. So you have a good time ok - but some asmos don't, 0 empathy I see. :sleeping:

    You must confuse me with someone else, I never abused splinter, never ganked Alukina and never ganked low levels in zone 1. But I played Asmo for 12 years on retail and never whined as much in 12 years as you do in 2 forum posts......


    Don´t get it anyways, MyAION says you are actually level 50 on classic and level 80 on retail and made it never top level neither here nor there, so where exactly is your endgame experience influenced by endgame players? You can´t face op top level geared players in C-Dred or Tiarkh, so whats your point exactly?

    Thank you for the feedback!


    Although it is not planned for now, we know some of you have been requesting a merge of both Classic servers. For now both servers are doing very good! Of course, we will keep on monitoring the activity of Atreia and Tahabata and we'll take action if we deem it necessary

    MyAion ofc... trying to use it as a tool to shame someone. Not my main little ely and I quit retail on my temp, long ago. Pathetic to bring up MyAion in an argument and you cant contextualize, you = you elys/taha ely as a collective - which you are part of as an individual.

    All we hear from you is whining and more whining. You must be the king of masochists if you stick to AION although you have to suffer so badly..... :D
