    Regarding the ended Promise Ring event:


    When event started GF stated that all promise rings will be deleted 18.6.2025 at the end of event:


    "The following items will be removed from the game at the end of the event:

    • [Event] Promise Ring Shard Bundle
    • [Event] Promise Ring Shards
    • [Event] Promise Ring
    • [Event] Ancient Promise Ring
    • [Event] Legendary Promise Ring
    • [Event] Ultimate Promise Ring
    • [Event] Shimmering Promise Ring"


    Last Friday they said the event will end on 17.6.2025:


    "Next week, the maintenance will take place on Tuesday 17.06, instead of the usual Wednesday. Due to the maintenance happening one day earlier, the events Promise ring and Stigma enchantment will also end one day earlier, on 17.06."


    and under today's (17.6.2025) maintenance thread they wrote:


    "[Ending]


    • [Promo] Stigma Enchantment: +30%
    • [Event] Promise Ring
      • NPC and Item deletion".


    After logging in today the event is over, but all rings are still in inventory, so I wonder if they will delete them tomorrow or they will remain and we can open them later.


    They often say that items will be removed from the game, but some item stay in inventory like golden protectorate coins.


    I really need a 100% true answer. I have plenty of rings unused, cause i couldn't sell enough stuff and don't have enough free slots to open all rings at once and opening XP rings for insignias at a later time would really be welcomed.


    Thank you.

    It's happening to me on live version lately as well. As soon as in-game screen appears game crashes, it happened three times in a row with same class, then I logged in with another class and all next logins with all characters were ok until next day when the story repeated. Never before had these issues, a bit annoying, but not game breaking.

    Problem fixed (I could only collect mount and nothing else), but main maintenance info says event still ends on May 7th, so not enough time to collect all items ... to be continued?

    Got daevanion essence from elite mobs at 17.35. Was Santa Claus released from prison or what?


    EDIT: Naduka Drakan Researchers- normal mobs near 4th Gelkmaros garrison definitely don't drop anything, even white cubelets are rare from them, let alone event drops

    Event not working at least in Gelkmaros since around 27.12.2024 from 2.00 am on. Not a single drop in last 9 hours (from around 2.00 am to 11.12 am), just white cubelets.


    Santa switched off?


    Anyway, raise drop percentage cause each repetition of event is worse.

    I think most people hoped for true classic and also that most, like myself, based on previous experiences doubted we would get it. I was hoping for classic with all bugs resolved and was wondering how will they resolve deletion of certain features like crafting. Why bother to craft and spend time in money knowing it will be deleted sooner or later? I also expected some new goodies to make old game better and nicer, like improved graphics, textures etc. The final product was much worse than expected, especially with limited gathering and drops without aura.


    I stopped playing after a week of "classic's" release, maybe the current version with aura is better than classic, I have no idea, I never looked back. From today's perspective I see all classic's hype just as a false/misleading advertising.

    Hi,


    after couple of years I wanted to do Stella easy solo with gladiator to complete collections and some things seems different, checking old videos didn't help. Since there are no new ones, I guess nothing changed in last couple of years, but doing stuff from videos (like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=allnMoSoVH4) just doesn't work for me. I am asking for some explanations:


    1. Palpap boss (robot in the middle of the room). When boss' shield is up I pull one of those small yellow "small disarmer" monsters near boss and kill it and sometimes the shield goes down immediately, sometimes the shield expires and I can hit the boss again, but many times killing small mob or even all three mobs near the boss doesn't effect the shield. The shield wears off , but it instantly pops up again. What I am doing wrong? Is it bugged??


    2. At last (Daeva weakling/Mob Leader in the past) boss I can hardly ever reach the blue platform or safe spot and even if I do I die from boss skill. Boss' pull is unavoidable and then I get slowed down so much that I usually can't escape his "current smash" skill. If i manage to get 10 or 12 meters away I usually get killed by red floor electricity far away from safe spot. I don't remember this opening sequence being so tough in the past. Asking for explanations for dummies. Other classes might jump somewhere, but after 3 hours of trying with gladiator I am left completely clueless. I did a bit better with 2 men, but catching all the safe spots in time just seems impossible in the given time.

    Hello folks:


    For some time I am stuck with 30 pieces of fragments of several different apostle's without any option to increase their numbers, so I will dare to ask:


    - is the current 28th day reward box for daily log in with apostle's transformation the final and only way to gain some of the apostle's,


    - will there be any other apostle's fragments event (similar to winter park event) to help players who already have some fragments and would like to complete them without waiting for several months to collect them all from reward boxes (albeit comparing to how many years we were stuck without any way of getting them is not that bad...),


    - will there be any way to exchange apostle's fragments for another type of fragments or something else, so we can at least have some benefit for collecting them and spending time and resources?


    Ty.

    People had multiple accounts since ever without any problems. I still have two, some people had like 8 or 9, maybe even more (I know about a guy with 72 alts) years ago when event rewards were tradable.


    In the past people abused them by having Asmo and Elyos alts and traded abyss points among their own characters, not sure anymore if anyone was permanently banned for doing it.

    I don't make progress either (well, slowly), but I never played 12 hours per day. Not playing for one year and practically having to start from zero I know I will never catch up unless GF starts doing perma Tia events to get runes etc. But even such events get boring after time. After couple of thousands dragon kills you ain't normal if you don't go mental... Fun is long gone.


    If you really spent that much time you should have something to show, maybe not +10, but +8? But looks like whatever you get there are people who can kill you even by accident just passing by.


    Since they started to give 50x major runes and waters and extreme chests weekly for long Tia event I expect or the top rewards will become normal or Aion servers will soon shut down with top rewards being the swan song.

    I can understand people won't show gear fearing they won't be invited to some instance. But on the other hand people can still do a successful run knowing they have a less geared and maybe less experienced member and take care about that from the very start instead of relying everyone knows everything. Knowing that most people won't get mad if they finish a run a couple of minutes slower. It's still much better than keeping quiet and e.g. dying in first 30 secs at 2nd Prom boss and then leaving party and causing way more troubles.


    Imo hiding gear does more bad than good, cause in a way it supports this weird attitude of rather be silent fearing of being shamed, instead of being sincere, cause it is the only way to get rid of shaming in the long run. Sadly this attitude is seen in almost every field of life.


    Tbh I never understood why having worse gear is worth shaming or why people would feel inferior if they play less. I don't think there is a single player (except those who bought accounts with fully geared characters) who wasn't inferior to someone at some point and we all survived.


    People often put too much importance on their's shortcomings thinking others are doing so much better. In reality people mostly have variations of same problems, but they only figure it out when they open up about "problems".


    Anyway,

    do other mmorpgs also have options to hide gear details?

    Philine, what's your main reason(s) to hide gear? I never really understood what was the main reason for "hide detail" option. To somehow prevent preparing for pvp arena against same faction? If people obey the rules, what's wrong about their gear being visible? What drastic change would we see if hiding gear feature was completely disabled?

    I don't understand most of what's going with the game, but considering last deletion of honour points rewards, I really struggle to comprehend why they prefer to limit us by not allowing stack same items from different seasons and thus at least giving some people some chance to get more expensive rewards.


    People take a vacation for a week or two and they simply delete months of work. WTF??


    Has NC or GF ever heard of compassion and understanding, or these words have been brainwashed out of your dictionary, you greedy sharks?


    Seriously GF,


    dares anyone from GF name one single reason why anyone shall log into game at all?
