Manastone Farming (Easy Ultimate and Legendary - SELECTABLE) - Arkmundir, Arktagorn + Arkaithos

  • Bosses spawn in Red Katalam where you can get Chests and Selectable manastones, however not many know, there are 3 bosses which are on a timer. With the current prices of manastones, makes sense to farm them. I've farmed them since 7.2 and full ulti/legend on 2 alts. I've kept this to myself and approximately 30ish people, but always invited new people who turned, but now it's time the rest of the game learn about this spawn and have access for a chance of loot.


    They spawn every day, at the same time (give or take 10-15 mins)

    There is also a once a week quest for each boss.
    It's possible to kill both bosses before siege starts.


    Arkmundir - South West Cave - 8.20pm-8.40pm Server Time

    Arktagorn - South East Cave - 8.20pm-8.40pm Server Time


    Arkaithos - 50/50 Asmo or Elyos side (either can kill - 9pm Server time (same as siege, so only killable Mon/Wed/Fri


    Arkmundir/Arktagorn has: 4 Selectable Ultimate Manastones, 8 Selectable Legendary Manastones, 4 Ultimate Intense Chests (20 items of Loot) - Arkaithos has slightly more and has 30 pieces of loot.

    To put this in perspective: An increasing number of players from same legion each week joined, and were welcomed, no questions asked about their gear etc, even though others had concerns that there were more coming uninvited and might take over, now that they are in a majority, think they can dictate that others can't join?? I don't think so. So I went public with this knowledge, hence this guide above.

  • perhaps a stupid question.... how do I enter Red Katalam?? *feels embarrassed* never been there so far ( to busy opening maps ^^ )

    Through rift in Dumaha, blue blob on the map - rift for Asmos, green one for Ely. Rifts are open from 11am to 4pm and 6pm to 1am.

  • anyway if people will attend these bosses it will be DPS race..who has highest dps will get the boss...and once people see they got no chance to outdps some...they gonna give up on them anyway

  • How is this "Secret knowledge"?

    I've killed these mobs in Week 1 of 7.2. A lot of people know about that.

    I guess thanks for a certain KR streamer who was killing these bosses all the time before we even got 7.2.

    Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

  • So whos faming these bosses nowdays? this was the best option to farm selectable manastones in 7.3


    with these i managed to fully socket 5x sets in full legendary/ulti ms in 4months time i was farming these bosses :) until asmos found out :))))

  • They're always camped... The fact that they're on a sw area makes it near impossible.


    Apparently 7.5 will address that somewhat but you'll still have to fight your way vs ks'ers and the opposite faction.


    I still think the signia/vengar manastone mobs and rift mobs were the best feature in Aion. You could solo or duo, it was timed decently and it actually provided a means to make kinah/socket gear.


    That "engraved" feature has just helped bury Aion even further - pun intended.

  • well from december until april the alli i was in farmed those bosses, and only our alli...


    we could outdps every other ally who came then germans found out :) and frenchies we had some nice competition vs them sometimes we lost, most we KS them.


    And in the end asmo sillus found out :))) 6months later and they came with 3-4 allys and we couldnt keep up with them.


    but imagine 6months free manastones... enchantmentstones, katalam intense gear...

    then i see people in forum cry about manastones in game.

    The people still farming these are selfish hypocritical people of all the servers obviously, not a single one of them actually need any of the gear chests or the manastones. Deliberately turning up to outdps other legions. It's almost like they want their entire faction/server to be undergeared other than them.

    Manastones is not going to be a problem. and 7.5 will fix this.

  • Keymaker when i quitted in end of april, asmo sillus came and since then only those 3-4 allis farmed all bosses....the alli i was in gave up then. dunno how it is now :)
