General Event Discussion

    after playing HT yesterday


    for the Hero trials for this week, the mobs quests can be done without BT NM since most gonna have problems passing 1stboss.


    As for the openworld mobs its a pain if u go thru the struggle GG to u.


    For the 14x Optional quests DONT DIE before boss dies, if u are dead in your grp , u wont get the quest update.


    My advice is do as many as u can this week and pray for next week changes.

    personally im skipping those hero trials , too much work for things that i already have ... not worth the time spent..also very badly done and organized , but far as i remember there were always problems with it , so surprise , im not surprised xd
    ill keep doing the stupid hellpath and pray to rng X/

    As for directions, I see HT as a good one but how is implemented is bad.

    The numbers of mobs are too high and the spawn rate too small, referring to open-world HT. About optional ones was a bad choice including the end-game bosses. 80% of the Aion population cant make those bosses. From here comes a higher gap between players. In my opinion, this kind of event should help to bring some balance at the community level and game imbalance. I know many elites will not agree with me, but from a management perspective, this should be the way of keeping a healthy community. We already lost way too many players because of the elites thinking and I think GF must step forward hard and do something about the community's "mental state" and help it and the events are one of the mechanics that can archive this goal. PS: Regarding Lakrum HT I am not sure I will be able to do it. The spawn rate so low and I am constrained by the fact my time is limited there and I don't speak about the fact I am losing a lot of time pvp-ing, cause we are how we are ...

    Yes.

    I am afraid also Lakrum (didnt be yet), because of together: Elyos and Asmo in one map - also it is integrated server, so very big traffic and in case of rare spawn + a few mobs - it seems will be unable to do. Need understand also faction battle - omg - for this daru mostly because annoying hit for 1 damage.


    It is something new in event - optional contract. As someone regarded in previous page of this topic - this will be doable - it seems, because [weekly] q has 4 rotations (bc 28days)


    EDIT: but recommended is not fighting :( because many players wanna do this ht with a silence :( like during granker event for kinah: many people were normal, bc of together farming.

    omg this needs fixing the mobs killed are not being counted correctly even bosses :(

    Yes, please a statement Mr. Galeas. You are working in one of the greatest Publisher for free-to-play-Online games in the world... It says so on your website.


    Your CEO on your Website:


    "The demands of our players are also the demands that we make for ourselves"


    Aha... What should i or the community think of that?


    The truth is that you have nothing on it, at least that's what the community thinks. You are unable to hold players.


    How long have the hero quests been around? And still bugged? Even in the past?


    No professional competence, and that shows up in your entire portfolio.


    So don't you wonder why so many players have switched to a P-Server?


    And they can play on a 64 bit client without laggs, disconnects and so an. Which client do we have in the year 2021? 32bit? Hust * shameful for such a large company or not?


    Often times it is really best not to bury your head in the sand. Maybe drop your pants and be honest to really do something for the community.


    Satisfied Community = more Money... for nice things in the Shop as example. Not only for PVP.


    That's just constructive criticism.


    If you like, ban me please. But that´s my opinion and also a large part of the community.


    Open your eyes....


    Thx and beautiful evening!! :):thumbup:

    Internet causing huge problems. Need to remember, that not only player is using internet - game servers also.

    If bad provider, maybe it is needed to change it?

    If Gameforge has a contract with ISP, he can also break this contract if provider is not guaranting stable working lol - contracted in that document ... because why these disconnections? It is not normal, and it is also not fault player's internet in 100% lol - this will never be.

    Every stick has two ends



    Servers can be even from NASA xd - with bad internet they R like 20 years old computers for two dollars :P

    Not the first one stating the obvious and not the last just like in these years ,that A LOT of players have stated the same,in end those people have quit the game.I agree with you but it falls into deaf ears.

    Lakrum HT is impossible to make. The mobs are too few and the spam rate so low. For Poeta and Sanctum took me around 16h on autoboot. On Lakrum is just impossible. I won't stay 10h in Lakrum to look for 600 mobs.

    @Jigsaw I read it over and over again on these forums seems every HT GF does its bugged its about time they fix it.

    Hell no, I'm not doing lakrum hero quest.


    It took me 10 minutes to find 6 mobs, which would be 17 hours of active gameplay to complete it. And we only get 14 hourglass per week (without lugbug and glory shop). No way. Now, about beshmundir. Imagine the challenge a new player would have trying to do that.


    --------------


    Critic aside, I have to mention that I really like the hero trials format mainly because one reason: It's RNG free. You know exactly what you will receive for your effort and can take a better decision whether you want to do it or not.


    I particularly like the Granker king in Poeta. New players can see veteran players combat first hand with a big beast and get motivated to continue playing. They can also see the movement of players killing those 600 mobs and get an illusion of active servers.


    I've got a repeated contract in cat event, nothing good in dailies. Also, got nothing good from hellpath event in my main character, got a vision weapon in support character not account storable of course. I've seen others being luckier, getting cats, s-minion and ultimate contracts. And don't get me wrong, it's not that I'm not happy for them, I somehow do, but it's unavoidable to feel a bit of frustration courtesy of RNG. People should have same chances to get stuff. That's why I like hero trials style so much, it's a much more even playing field.

    Gameforge brought one real good event and that was the stormwing event, do-able quests and good, safe rewards. Unfortunatly that event was so/too good so they brought nearly the same event again -the actual cat event- but totally nerfed it and put the RNG in it. Why? Nobody can tell why someone nerfes and ruins the only good event they had the last years......

    Meh, I thought we already had this conversation, cat event and stormwing event are not the same.


    While Stormwing event was way better, we do have the same version of the cat event as KR, but cheaper.


    Stop saying cat event is stormwing event but nerfed. They are not the same. At all. Both exist in KR.

    Quote from Dropkickmurphy

    No. Because its nearly the same but nerfed. My opinion. Deal with it or not, I really don´t care dude.

    It's like saying black jack and poker are the same games. But ok. If you want. Won't bother you with it xD

    [...] i think the person u are answering to refers that,the event is similar but the rewards are hidden behind worst RNG compared to stormwing event.Mechanics the same,spawn pet,get rewards etc etc (upgrade level for better) but the RNG/rewards of it makes it worst compared to its predeccesor, [...] .Have a good day.

    This.

    Still dont get why you want to compare stormwing event with cat event.


    https://aion.plaync.com/board/…d=0&viewMode=list&size=20


    NC clearly designed the event that way (so not as the stormwing event about the rewards system).


    GF made it ten times cheaper (2m kinah to upgrade an ore in KR, 200k for us).


    It is not because event mechanics are the same that you shall expect the same rewards.


    If I follow your stupid logic, you shall praise GF for bringing ultimate tranformations in hell pass event, because previous editions doesn't. Strangely, I'm hearing nothing like that from you. All is about the negative atmosphere you are currently spreading.
