Ravven is now 29, but prior to dinging I had my first two “real” tanking experiences in the Nochsana Training Camp. Remember, I’ve only played ranged DPS in games…tanking scared the hell out of me. But this is what I wanted to do: something entirely different. The first run was horrible. I’d never seen the …
It’s been a very long, very stressful week, and as a result, I haven’t been playing as much as hoped. I logged in last night, decided to try to do quests in Reshanta, died several times, and then just decided to grind in the desert area of Morheim. I died a couple more times, and …
Ravven is level 27 now, and moving on. I haven’t seen a lot of Abyss action yet, since you really, really need to go in as part of a group – the larger the better. Otherwise your experience will consist of being immediately ganked by massive gangs of enemy players, some distressingly high level (judging …
This is what Looking for Group and general chat channels look like in Aion: Being notoriously friendly to goldspammers and botters is NOT a good thing. And there’s no way of reporting these spammers. Oh, there is an area to make a GM ticket…but the Submit button is greyed out. Fail.
Did I use that title before? Probably. It’s Friday, however, and I just can’t be arsed to check. :D Ravven hit 25, and is doing the ascension quests in preparation for entering the Abyss. I am so freaking excited about this. :D Last night I spent, what, something like 57,000 kinah on some really spiffy …
Since I’m sitting here, sending out CVs and idly surfing while my near three-hour queue in Aion slowly ticks down, this post by Tobold struck quite a chord: Aion and the death of the traditional server model. This quote really made me laugh: And to all those who have said that this is the smoothest …
Last night, as expected, I wasn’t able to play due to the long queues. Actually, that’s not entirely correct, as I was able to log in at about 10:30-11:00 last night, but I was too tired by then to do anything. I expect the entire week to be like this, and I am so not …
My Templar, Ravven, is now level 24 and looking forward to level 25 and the Abyss. It’s been so much fun. The queues are still very much present, which is quite unfortunate. I’ve had a few days off from work and have contrived ways of never logging out, but now that I am back at …
Well, let’s see if British Telecom will allow me to make a post. I tend to do most of my writing from work, since BT chokes p2p connections during the afternoon and evening, and it seems to count WordPress as p2p – cloud computing, maybe? All I know is, sometimes I can’t post from home, …
I was a noob and logged out so we could reset the router. Bad idea. :( Overall, though, when you can get in, it’s stable and not very laggy. I have general chat turned off because it’s appalling. We’ve enjoyed playing in our own little world. Aside from the lack of servers, I would say …
