Straight from Chris Hager’s mouth

March 6th, 2010 Mercilous No comments
Aion Update 1.9 Interview with Chris Hager | Ten Ton Hammer

"With every patch, we’ll potentially overpower one class and under-power another, so this is a way to balance out the gladiator and the warriors as opposed to rangers and assassins that can use two single-handed weapons…"

So they do this on purpose…I’m not sure how this balances classes, maybe this makes sense to every1 else tho.

6. All stigma stones types can now be purchased from the Stigma Seller located in the large cities.

I hope this applies to BF/FS. XD

So…finally fought my first mResist cleric

February 9th, 2010 Mercilous No comments
I must say, it was rather annoying. I was able to pressure him enough to keep him on the defense for the most part however, whenever I had an opportunity to burst him down. my runes got resisted (obviously lol). Of course he was 50 and I’m still only 45, but still I think there were things I could have done better. In the end I just gave up, ran, hid, and found others to gank.

I was just wondering if there was anything we could do to counter mResist geared clerics/chanters. Of course there is Oath of Accuracy, but I was looking for a more permanent fix (and the 5min c/d sucks). I’ve checked gear and obviously none has mAccuracy on it, so that just leaves weapons, jewelry, and manastones.

Obviously I’m not going to slot mAccuracy, at least not at this lvl and with my horrible gear. Has anybody found a way to beat mResist clerics without using runes? If they didn’t have Flash of Recovery it would be so much easier lol. XD

Looking for opinions on Eye of Wrath

January 29th, 2010 Mercilous No comments
I love the skill when it comes to pve, however the animation is waaayyy too long for pvp purposes. I like 2 cast it b4 Shuriken, but that causes me to waste a lot of the time I could be using for dps. I’m thinking about dropping it for Flurry. (only reason I don’t have flurry atm is cus i was trying EoW.)

I was just curious about how other sins utilize this skill in pvp. (if there are any)

Isn’t it about time for rift location changes?

January 17th, 2010 Mercilous No comments
Having rifts camped by 15 elyos/asmos, makes rifting kinda pointless and boring. Why are rifts placed in places where they can be easily camped? I aint cryin about it, just wondering if this will ever change. As it stands, only good rifting times are at night, and then there aren’t as many people on, so it gets kinda boring.

So how exactly does OH damage work?

January 15th, 2010 Mercilous No comments
Ight, b4 the flaming starts, I’ve seen a lot of threads that come to different conclusions.

First off, by using d/s combo my MH attack power is 228 and my OH ap is 236. This of course means that combined, it is 464. If I use a s/d combo, my MH ap is 247 and my OH ap is 217 and it still adds up to 464.

With this in mind, does OH ap have anything to do with skill damage? or does it only affect auto-attacks? The ~20 increase in ap from the s/d combo seems more important to me than the attack speed of d/s combo. If skill damage is based off of the total of both weapons then it would obviously be viable to use d/s combo, for the fact that your getting the same damage with the added attack speed.

Thanx

Advanced stigmas at all useful?

January 14th, 2010 Mercilous No comments
I know this has been discussed b4.

Agony Rune and Dash and Slash look like great skills, but the pre-reqs for them are completely ridiculous. Has anybody ever even tested either skill to be able to tell if they are even worthwhile? I’ve tried several times to configure a build, but it just seems completely pointless to me.

I don’t want to have 2 drop SW, Flurry, and TS just to be able to use the advanced stigmas. Wish we were able to change the required stigmas for the advanced ones…Who knows, maybe we will be in the future. =)

what to craft for 400-410

January 9th, 2010 Mercilous No comments
I just bought the balic recipes, however I also just realized that you need 410 tailoring opposed to the 400 that I originally thought you needed. Any suggestions as to what I can craft to get my tailoring up to 410?

Thx

Sigil Strike usefull?

January 1st, 2010 Mercilous No comments
The only good thing that I can see about this, is that you can use it on the run. I switched it for rune knife tho becuase rune carve isn’t 100% chance and that can screw u up in some situations. Does anybody use this during pvp?

attack speed debuffs stack?

January 1st, 2010 Mercilous No comments
I’m a new chanter, and I’m trying to figure out if Hallowed Strike II – Items – Aion stacks with Promise of Earth I – Items – Aion

I’m never able to actually see the Promise of Earth debuff, so I’m not sure. Thanx

Edit: Nvm, after a few tests, I figured it out. Promise of Earth only lasts for about 1.5 seconds…Seems kinda pointless 2 me, even with a 10% chance.

[Asmo] What to do from lvls 36-37?

November 6th, 2009 Mercilous No comments
So I jus dinged lvl 36 and i’ve been pretty much just doing FT and occasionally grinding in the abyss. Right now im about 35% into the lvl, and I’m pretty sick of doing quests, so I’d prefer to just grind to 37. I was just looking for advice as to where I should be grinding, or what groups I should be looking for.

Thx
