Strengthen your hero and benefit from increased enchantment chances for Stigmas and Daevanion skills in this event Plus, fusing 2 or more Legendary or Ancient Transformation Contracts won’t result in your contract receiving a lower level!

[h3]Stigmas[/h3]

The enchantment chances for Stigmas are slightly increased during the event. At level 9 the chance increases from 30% to 33%. At levels 10 to 12 the chance increases from 20% to 33%.


[h3]Daevanion Skills[/h3]

The enchantment chances for Daevanion skills are slightly increased when you use different Skill Books to enchant the skills.

THE ANNIVERSARY EVENT



We’re celebrating the 12th anniversary of AION and from 15/9 to 29/9 you have the chance to experience loads of action and rake in great loot in three more events! The Ancient Prophets event kicked things off, and now we present you the Battlefield Festival, the Dreamscape event and our Anniversary Hero Trials.

During the event, you can also look forward to free items in the AION Shop – why not take a look right now?


[h3]The Battlefield Festival[/h3]
To commemorate AION’s 12th anniversary, you can play in ‘boosted’ Battlefield instances – this means double entries and more Battlefield Coins for your participation! You can also borrow completely enchanted equipment to help you really give it to your enemies.

Among the rewards you can get in exchange for Battlefield Coins, you’ll find treasures like the Legendary Fragment of Memory, the Daevanion Essence Bundle, Vaizel’s Apostle Transformation Fragment and many other great items!


[h3]Let Your Hero Benefit[/h3]
In the Battlefield instances Ashunatal Dredgion, Runatorium, Neviwind Canyon, Kamar Battlefield, Raging Valley and Illumiel you receive various extras and can borrow equipment:

Ultimate Transformation: Boronerk is offering you a free ultimate transformation of your choice. It lasts for 30 minutes – even after dying – but will be removed after leaving the battlefield. The Buff Master minion function removes the transformation, however, so make sure you’ve deactivated it.

Ultimate Spiked Equipment Chest:For some Kinah, Lisnerk will lend you completely enchanted equipment in the mentioned instances. The chest contains two weapons with already fused stats and equipment for your class. The equipment will be removed after leaving the battlefield.

Boosts in the Instances: in the instances listed above, you can get more Battlefield Coins for your victory, defeat or draw – plus you can enter more often! Check out the Battlefield Overview to see all details about the instances at a glance.

THE MOON RABBIT’S WISH



The Moon Rabbit made a wrong turn at Anturoon and is now lost in Atreia. Until just recently, he spent every minute of his day fervently praying for his wishes while minting Wishing Coins. He was so anxious about it that he accidentally dropped his bag of Moonluck.

He’s now trying to find his lost wishes in Atreia, but it’s turning out to be extremely difficult. So he has turned to the Daeva for help and promises to give them the rest of his possessions in return.

Helpful Daevas can look forward to rewards like the Starlight Hanbok, the [12th Anniversary] Ultimate Transformation Chance (21 types), the [Rune] Selection Box of DP Daevanion Skills and much more!
