AION Free-to-Play News

The filthy rich Black Cloud Merchant Jakunerk is putting on a game for the Daevas where they have to show what they’ve got. Naturally, he named the game after himself: welcome to the Jakunerk Game!

Up to 48 Daevas can take part in this nerve-racking game. They have to transform into a Shugo and master three game areas – and they’ve got just 10 whole minutes to do it! You can earn items like the [Event] Improved Experience Crystal, [Event] Nabaru’s Giant Fruit, [Event] Magnificent Skull Mask and lots more!



Running: 16th March to 30th March


[h3]The Game Calendar[/h3]
The Jakunerk Game only takes place on certain days and you need the [Event] Jakunerk Game Ticket to take part:
1st game day: 18/3 from 8 PM to 10 PM
2nd game day: 19/3 from 4 PM to 6 PM

You can get a quest from Karunerk if you bring him 5x [Event] Jakunerk Insignia. Among other things, the insignias are also issued as a reward for the Jakunerk Game. In order to complete the quest you receiver 1 of 6 Skull Masks – including the Magnificent Skull Mask! You can repeat the quest to grab all 6 masks!


[h3]The Game Begins![/h3]
Once you’ve activated the Jakunerk Game Entrance, you’ll be teleported to the waiting area. From here, you can access the game area. The entry to the waiting area is closed after a certain amount of time so the game can begin. The game area consists of three sections; you must master all of them to receive your reward.

• Section 1 ‘Chain Rope’: Balance on the rope and try not to look down!
• Section 2 ‘Invisible Path’: Follow the Pathfinder Qooqoo – only he can show you the way.

• Extra section: Complete this area to receive the [Event] Bravest Reward too. It contains 1x [Event] Little Jakunerk Reward Bundle and 1x [Event] Jakunerk Game Ticket.

If you die in one of the sections, you’ll wake up back in the waiting area. From here you can try again or leave the game area.


[h3]Rewards[/h3]
Once you’ve successfully completed all of the sections (not including the extra section), you can enter the reward room. This room contains 48 Jakunerk Boxes of different levels that are only available to a limited number of players. The players who finish first will have the most to choose from:

• The Large Jakunerk Box is only available for 1 player. It contains 10x [Event] Improved Experience Crystal, 5x [Event] Nabaru’s Giant Fruit, 50x [Event] Transparency Transformation Scroll and 5x [Event] Lodas’ Greater Golden Star.

Aphsaranta is currently overrun by the Shugoling Corps, a group of Shugo criminals that have stolen lots of things, including Corps Glory Essence. The Daeva are trying to put a stop to the Shugoling Corps, and defending Aphsaranta from hordes of monsters, all at the same time. But their efforts are worthwhile, because the monsters drop some rare items!

The Black Cloud Merchants are running their popular Shugo Game again! Play to win valuable prizes – including: the +9 Extreme Weapon Selection Box, some Calyx Robes, a Calyx Bonnet, as well as the Aggressive Bear.



Running: 9th March to 30th March

You’ll need Shugo Game Tokens to take part, and you can buy those in the shop at the beginning of the event. During the event, you’ll also get three free Shugo Game Tokens per week in the AION Shop.


[h3]How the Shugo Game Works[/h3]

• Click on the Shugo symbol at the bottom-right of your screen to open the Shugo Game.
• Then click on ‘Continue’ to start the game. This will use a Shugo Game Token.
• Try to upgrade the weapon to its maximum level (8) to earn the highest level reward.
• Any time you want, you can click on ‘Stop’ to end the game and you’ll get the reward for the level you got up to.
• It’s also possible for upgrading to fail. Should this happen, you will receive the level 1 reward. If you want to restart the game you’ll need another Shugo Game Token.
• Using Shugo Game Tokens fills the bar at the top with Shugo Game Points. Once it’s full, this triggers the Nyerk Fever. While active, your chances of successfully upgrading and of winning more valuable prizes both increase.

[h3]Please note[/h3]

• At the end of the event the [Jakunerk] Shugo Game Tokens and Lucky Coins will be removed from the AION Shop.
• Logging out or switching characters while playing a Shugo Game will automatically give you the prize for the level you got up to. You cannot continue the game.
• If you reach level 6 or higher and the upgrade fails, you can use two additional Shugo Game Tokens to try again from the level you failed at.
