Aion Stuff

Nearly lvl 49 now and have decided to go mountain crash path. Reason is i do best on my own so if i screw up i am to blame.
Need to know can we solo lvl 50 balaurs with m/c build. I can do lvl 44 Indratu elites at 48 but find them taxing. Obviously at lvl 50 miragent’s is the best i am going to get so that is why i need to know about the possibility of solo lvl 50 balaur elites. Any help will be much appreciated.

Just pis-ed off with all negative input into this game.
Seriously guys, if you don’t like it then just leave and stop annoying the community with your negative attitudes.
I personally think that at $15/month all mmorpg’s are very good value for money if you like them, it is your choice.
This game has a #@$% of a lot to offer and if it "fails" in endgame then at least you have had many hours of fun and enjoyment for your money.
I personally have 3 people playing different toons for 18 hours or so every day so this is by far the cheapest form of entertainment available for me (#@$ aside)???

OK i will explain my problem and see if anyone can help. I’m an Aussie and i use Proxy Cap and Smoothping to get my lag down. This works good but at crucial times i get lagged out. Crucial times=bosses, fortress raids, instances etc.
On many occasions i get a software message "putty fatal error". I need to know if you guys have a better proxy or whatever to help. This problem seemed to get worse since my son moved back home and is using Proxy cap and Smoothping for his WOW game. If it is him causing the problem i will kick him out, lol joking.
BTW i am using AAPT and am not real happy with them but i have home,internet and mobile and cannot find a better price.
On the same note i am quite happy to pay for good service.

Groups advertising and willing to pay for members: L.F.G. Temp wanted for ????? run, will pay 500k.
S/M’s charging like 75k for a teleport???.
What’s next, Cleric’s wanting kinah for heals?, etc etc.

Personally find this sort of behaviour disgusting.

Well debated but i have to bring topic up again. Level 38 Adamantium gear seems to be the end of chain for us except for misery hauberk and guardian commando boots which unfortunately have mp but cannot be discarded because of speed bonus. I have checked out the balaur lvl40 set and it is mp as well. Anyone have any suggestions as to what gear can fill the 38-50 gap? or just live with the 38 gears?. Only upgrade which i feel i can obtain is the lvl 40 abyss gloves which gives me attack speed, the full set would be nice but is not going to happen with me. Also do you think i should get rid of my xeno staff and go for the attack speed blue craft?
And all you guys who told me to hang on to my chanter till 42-45 were dead right and i thank you, we sort of get pretty good.
Thanks guys and i’m going to see if Godguard still exists so i can see his gear.

Some time ago i asked opinions on what manastones were the best for our class and it went pretty much to "BUILD ON YOUR STRENGTH" ie PARRY. Main reason was it sets off our main para/stun attacks which makes a lot of sense.
Now i am reading "MAGIC RESISTANCE" is the way to go.
Any thoughts on this?
I have pvp in mind cause i’m sick of getting beat up by most classes.

Design: Balaur Lord’s Shield – Items – Aion
Any ideas would be appreciated. I am 399 armorsmith but i don’t think i will ever have enough money to craft this.

Can you guys please help me with S.R Hair Pin quest? I am lvl 43 and cannot find the quest. I have tried database and asking guildies. They tell me shugo black cloud island but i have tried both and no quest. Another said "Rescue Haorunerk" could be a pre req quest but i cannot find it??. Same guy said "the missing cube craftsman" maybe a pre req but i haven’t that quest also.
Any help as to what i need to do?? Thanks in advance.

Purple weapons come up on occasion in game. Any info on them please? Usually "test" or "balic myth" or whatever.

Can someone explain how morphing works or point me to a guide please. Obviously the more info the better.

I’m in a lower level group doing a fire temple run and after dying 2 times (80k ouch) we finally get to the boss.
Get boss way down and get dced????? WTF
Desperately relog only to find my account has been banned.
There is no way it could have been banned at a worse time.
Look at my gear and lvl??? so i’m a bot or a gold buyer, idiots.

Anyone know any thing bout a free server change that was "rumoured" to become available this month??

Hi people, i need help/ideas as to how to increase my ping.
I am using "smoothping" and during the day i have no probs. Probs start around 8pm and at about 9pm just becomes unplayable.
My provider is AAPT and they claim they are not at fault, they do admit that 9pm is peak for them tho.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated or would this post be better off in "tech" posts?

Feel a little intimidated here but when can i hope for a recipe that may get me a "gold" item? I am only 270 A.T.M. and am finding it very hard to finance my "armorsmithing" habit.

I want to upgrade from Vista to Windows 7. Will i need to reinstall anything?
