I will be working my butt off trying to make enough kinah to socket my gear with MR14's. I got 3/5 socketed and then blew 160m on my chest, only to result in 5/5 mr +10's.
FML.
Hope fully the 80+ stones will go a long way to enchanting my armor.
Just one thing before I comment. I love Aion. I have played it with my wife since launch.
Aion has great potential but they keep doing things that make it seem as though they are trying to sabotage it. The most recent is removing the quest that gave us 2 arena tickets a day and leaving us with 1. The arena system was a fantastic addition to the game. It allowed people to gear up fast enough to be competitive with players that had been here for 2 years +.
The mana stone socketing rate was nerfed just prior to selling mana stone supplements in their item shop. They try and say it wasn't but it very rare to socket anything fully now. I have a screen shot of 15 breaks in the first slot. This does not increase the enjoyment of the game. It leads to aggravation and rage quitting.
NCWest has no say in anything regarding the game at all. NA's views are not take into consideration in any way. The CM's have all but come out and said this. They make suggestions and are shot down. Game decisions filter down from people who clearly do not play this game and are all bout making as much money as possible and killing the game in the process.
Bottom line. This game is fucked. Don't start playing it if you are not already. It will just lead to heartbreak and aggravation. Those of us that have stuck it out are ready to move on.
Good luck, I am 6 fails into my pants. At current prices on bloods that is 65 Million kinah. The number is closer to 100 though as prices were much higher when I started. Apparently the blood drops like rain in 2.0 though so this may not break you.
The PvP is a lot of fun. It takes some effort to get ahead. I like to feel like I accomplished something when I get gear and other things. I like to kill other players. Non-Consensual PvP makes me happy.
1. Players will have a skill, button, whatever, to allow them engagement of pvp, once the button is activated or they attack someone else its 24...
^^ This would destroy the game for most of the people that play it. The game is a pvp game, if you don't like it go back to hello kitty or WoW or wherever you are from.
So many haters. I am lvl 50 I love the game still. It has its annoying bits but its still loads of fun. I suggest you do all of the above. Is there a time frame you need to hit lvl 50? Nope. Play the game in a way that makes sense for you. At lvl 40 you are in a good position, being a sorc you are in a better position. Grab some group kisks and head to Belusian. You may want to go with some friends the first couple of times. But believe me as a sorc there are VERY FEW classes you cannot 1v1. Stack a bunch of MA and go cause some havok. If I had it to do again I would have stopped leveling at 40 - 45 and done nothing but rifted for a few months.
If you are determined to get to 50 grab a couple of friends, (2 people at the most) and go 3 man in the indaratu areas. Also once you get to 41 or 42? You can key for Steel Rake and run that instance. Don't focus so much on the gear in Steel Rake, you will be garbaging it at 45 - 50 anyways.
Most of all, remember it is an mmo. Get some friends.
