AION Free-to-Play News

AION Live’s update 8.4.1 is coming soon! Brand new content, exciting adjustments and a raft of improvements to your favourite game await! Read on to find out all about the most important new features of the update!

[h3]Get More Power From Amulets[/h3]
Amulets are new seasonal items – you can upgrade them using materials that you receive for completing various activities in Aphsaranta. These amulets enable you to use a powerful Aphsaranta-exclusive ability!

[h3]Vaizel and Triniel Head Into Battle[/h3]
The start of the new season also means two new Ultimate Transformations: Vaizel and Triniel. Unleash their full potential by picking them up and completing your newly added collections.

[h3]The Lahmu Corps’ Air Raid[/h3]
Fight your way through the new world raid in Aphsaranta, which will appear at regular intervals around the 7th and 8th Bases. Defeat a horde of Balaur until you are strong enough to defeat the boss and claim your precious rewards – including materials to upgrade your amulet!

Greetings Daevas,

As mentioned in our previous news, our systems have been heavily impacted over the last 3 days by DDOS attacks, which also affected other games from our infrastructure.

While we have already implemented some extra measures, the attackers have definitely spent effort and time preparing their malicious activities which are affecting our team’s work, but sadly and above all, deteriorating your experience on our servers.

They are now continuously targeting us, but our team is still fighting back and will continue non-stop until servers come back to their original and stable state.

We are deeply sorry about the inconvenience caused and we understand and share your frustration. We can assure you that we will do all we can to put an end to this situation.

Finally, we would also like to offer you compensation for those 3 days. Thus, starting today and until the 7th of June, all users will be able to claim free bundles inside our ingame Shop providing the following items (once per account – requires a character level 75):

• [Event] Bundle of Entry Scrolls for the Instance
  
• Entry Scroll for the Heart of Aphsaranta
  
• Bundle of Transparent Transformation Scrolls (10)
  
• 2x Atreia Ruin Relic (Level 1)
  

We would like to thank you again for your understanding and support.
Sincerely,
Your AION Team.

We’ve been feverishly waiting for this moment, and now it’s finally here – AION Classic has launched on the European server!
Due to the very high number of players right now, we decided to open a second server. The new server Tahabata is already available. We recommend picking this one if you are joining now.

Relive that vanilla feeling of your favourite MMORPG. AION Classic gives you a fresh start in this fantastic version of old, rekindling all the nostalgia of the original, while delivering additional balancing updates and quality of life improvements.

AION Classic can be enjoyed by both seasoned veterans and fresh newcomers who are ready to choose their allegiance in the great conflict between the Elyos and Asmodians, and lose themselves in the fantastical world of Atreia!


[h3]Here’s What’s Waiting[/h3]

The huge and inimitable realm of Atreia is waiting to be explored:

Choose between one of the core classes (strong Warriors, silent Scouts, powerful Mages and influential Priests) and play as Gladiator, Templar, Hunter, Assassin, Spiritmaster, Sorcerer, Cleric or Chanter.


Experience amazing PvE content, such as the iconic Dark Poeta and Baranath Dredgion instances.


Craft a wide variety of useful items and weapons to make your hero even more powerful.


Progress to level 50, completing quests, earning powerful Daeva gear and dominating the timeline.


Charge into PvP, including heart-pounding Fortress Battles and more!

Spring is coming late to Aphsaranta this year – to the benefit of all active corps as they had spontaneously decided to hold a small spring festival. Now they’ve had enough time for planning, which they desperately needed.

The corps want to thank the Daevas for their dedicated support during the long winter months. Each hero can now look forward to wonderful rewards for entertaining missions and amazing deals at the merchants in Gelkmaros and Inggison.

During this event you can pick up items like the Ultimate Fragments of Memory, [Event] Extra Ticket for Hererim Mine, [Rune] Ultimate Gold Key and many more!

Running: 19th April to 10th May


[h3]Your Rewards[/h3]
Don’t let the magic of spring in Aphsaranta enchant you for too long – collect 5 Spring Leaves and combine them to a Spring Flower. You can exchange this flower for precious items. You can find an overview of all possible rewards in our list of rewards.

There are two ways to get Spring Leaves:

• Complete daily quests, 3-day quests, or weekly quests of the corps. For each completed quest, you’ll receive 5x [Event] Spring Leaf.
• Complete the posting quest level 1 and 3 of the active corps (Elyos, Asmodians or neutral corps). You’ll receive 20x [Event] Spring Leaf.

[h3]Get the Boost![/h3]
During each of the following three periods, you’ll receive a great PvP boost in the form of 200% Abyss Points in Aphsaranta:

• 21st April (9 AM) to 24th April (8:59 AM CEST)
• 28th April (9 AM) to 2nd May (8:59 AM CEST)
• 5th May (9 AM) to 8th May (8:59 AM CEST)

[h3]Spring Offers[/h3]
During the event, you’ll find special bundles containing valuable items (such as the [Rune] Vernal Magic Coin) in the AION Shop:

• Large Spring Feeling Pack (1x per account)
• Spring Feeling Pack (19x per account)

What you get for your coins:

• An NPC with the distinct name ‘Spring Feeling’ is waiting for you in Gelkmaros and Inggison. In exchange for Vernal Magic Coins, you can get valuable items such as the [Rune] +15 Stigma Selection Box and [Rune] +5 Extreme Equipment Selection Box.

Note: The items [Event] Spring Leaf, [Event] Spring Flower and [Rune] Vernal Magic Coin will be removed from the game after the event is over.

Greetings, Daeva

As you already know, we recently moved AION Live to our Gameforge client and unfortunately encountered some technical difficulties during the process.

Our team is hard at work to fix the remaining issues as fast as possible, as well as preparing the launch of AION Classic. But to ensure this will be a great experience, we've decided to postpone the release of Classic to the 25th of April.

We understand game delays are always frustrating, especially since many of you, much like us, are already very excited for next week. But as much as we wanted to stick to the previously announced date, we still haven’t reached the level we want to achieve for a smooth game launch.

Our top priority is to ensure you will have the best experience possible. This short delay will allow us to apply the necessary measures based on our learnings from the Live migration, which we think will greatly improve the release of Classic.

The entire team is continuing to work diligently on the game, and we thank you for your patience.

We will, as always, keep you posted on our official channels.
Your AION team.
