Aion Legion anyone ? (guild)

[Souca]

3 of us boxers are on Vaizel/asmodian, not boxing just yet, learning the mechanics with single boxing for now.

I thought they were Eylos on that server? Right now I'm on Ariel as Eylos, but might be able to roll some Asmod on Vaizel if it isn't locked like most servers are.

A How to Guide for those with more experience in this game would probably boost other people's interest.
I speak for myself, but I won't move from keyclone or IS to a hardware solution so would like to know if any of these work and if there are any limitations/ known issues.

Also, am I correct that a party consists of 6 toons? What kind of end game can we reach with 6 boxing?

Share your experience on this game please.

Thank you

Keyclone does work on this. I haven't played with the auto start and maximizer yet that keyclone has. What i do is just run two instances of aion (in the launch you can go in option and check off run multiple instances). Once the two instances are running i then start keyclone and manually add the two to keyclone. The only thing that doesn't work is "Jump" not the spacebar, the jump action.

I think that i read Moorea say that jump doesn't work on another program as well. Which i think is a little weird.

I have to figure out a way that i can get maximizer working, getting sick of the window look.

I am currently playing two sorcerers so far lvl 13. Talk about a little op. Best targets are the melee ones sense they have to run to you. I just get them at max distance, throw my slow on them and nuke the hell out of them. They usually die by the time they get to me. In the starting zone i didn't even need the slow. The thing that sucks are the ranged mobs. They hit you for a good amount of damage. I find that lvling isn't as easy too, granted things die really quick, but it seems like i have to grind a little every now and then. I was lvl 12 doing the lvl 15/16 campaign quests because the other quests where not available until 13.

I have also heard that past lvl 20 people usually do everything in groups (2-3 people) because it is much harder. I also heard that grinding is almost as good as questing (had to grind 5 bars and it went pretty quick).

Anyone want to share their configs for getting Aion to run with software? I'm using InnerSpace, but would use HotKey or something else if it works. The launcher seems to be were the problem is since it launches the .bin instead of a normal .exe.

I have published my hkn setup/script on

and you're welcome to come by my justin tv stream and ask about it (or here)

see above and my other posts :-) yes max non raid party is 6 toons

before people rush and 5/6 box this game though, please note that the removal of gameguard may only be temporary... so beware of your investment

Uh ? I announced here long ago I was VAIZEL/EYLOS not asmo - why did you roll on asmo side ? who are the other 2? I'd be happy to roll asmo on some other servers with other boxers but please don't pick the same server on opposite side

[Moorea]

Few other notes about aion:

resizing doesn't work right yet (so maximizing is an issue)

space bar/movement keys don't seem to work right either

Freddie is kindly looking at both problems

[Lyonheart]

When do you play Moorea? i can never see you on. I log in a few hours a day..on and off at different times.

my toons are Lyonheart and Darklyon ( Lyonessia is my healer )

So we can gank You of course!
Just kidding, Eylos is too pretty, too much alliance feel to it. Bad guys are the way to go.

Doh, lol

Edit: lol - I;m Vaziel/Elyos
At the character creation screen it wouldn't let me make anything other than an Elyos. I even received an error that said I already had created an Asmodian (don't ask me how, my account and everything were fresh out of the box as of yesterday). It seems like this was happening for a few other people in the General chat as well, because I saw a several others ask why they couldn't create an Asmodian character. Some of the responses were to roll on a different realm.

@Drizzit - 2 Sorcerers seem like a great idea. I'm going to be rolling my other one up tonight. I'll post my findings as I continually progress. If this boxing this game works as described by others on this forum, I think I'll probably end up 6? boxing this game... 4 sorcerers, 1 priest, 1 templar.

Leveling in Aion is definitely not for everyone. Aion leveling can be seen like leveling was in the original EverQuest or Asheron's Call (lots of grinding). The leveling system is offset by the quests that Aion introduces, and by that respect, I think they've done a pretty good job with the questing system. That being said, grinding isn't that bad in this game -- I'm sure I spent at least 2 hours last night just running in a circle killing mobs. For the first hour, I didn't even realize that there was a mana-regen option so I watched some tv inbetween waiting for my mana to regenerate (oops). I'm glad I did the NPC grind, because I always outleveled my quests, and right now I have a bunch of quests available which will yield me another level or two.

From what I can tell, the auction house system mimics that of EverQuest. You can park your character(s) in a city and auction items. People can walk up to you in order to purchase goods.

I'm curious to see what the end-game will be like. There has been a lot of talk about the PvP endgame, but also about how PvE end-game will consist of your group.

@ Anyone - How does tanking work in this game? Do we have to worry about threat generation at all? I haven't rolled a tanking class yet (slowly picking out my classes to box).

Thanks all ^^

@Moorea
How did you deal with fps dropping on the 2nd client?

[Moorea]

9 "background" fps seems to work enough for following, casting, etc.... so it hasn't bothered me so far - I wonder though if some of the hkn command could force both windows to think they are in the fg

I'm still puzzled why you picked the same server I announced but the opposite faction - again I don't mind having also an asmo or that you prefer asmo but why pick the same server...

I play typically 9pm-1am pst on weekdays and it's easy to see if I do or don't as usually my stream is live when I play

Guess I should clear this up since you sound angry.

Niley and myself were joining a server that some of his WoW guild was going to start on. We didn't search through the forums here on d-b to find people only to roll the opposing faction on purpose. It just happened that way. Either join us or we will see you in the Abyss because we specifically didn't roll characters on the 'pretty' faction.

I will subscribe to your future announcements from this point on.
