Official Aion sites have released several news items I’d like to reflect on here. New patch 1.5.1 is in the works and Aion_Tamat was kind enough to let the community know what we can expect. There are some anti-griefing mechanisms included, item modifications and more anti bot/spam mechanisms introduced. We have put up our page for the 1.5.1 patch preview; please note that these are NOT final patch notes. We’ll keep you update if any other important notes are added.
There will be a small invasion on Dreamhack Winter, the well known LAN party held in Sweden, by the Aion community and staff. There’s a plan of introducing 16 fully decked out Aion gaming stations for anyone who hasn’t yet tried the game. Aion PvP tournament will also be held at the venue and prominent Swedish Legions and fansites will be present as well. Read the full news here.
In community news … I have come across this great little guide to Aether gathering with included macro for easing the gathering process. The guide is written by Adrian_dps and can be found here.
Thanks for showing off my aether guide. I wrote it after my husband and I spend 2 hours aether farming! I figured I should share the nice little tips and tricks that I had learned so that hopefully I could help others make aether farming just a little less painstaking.
I had made my Aion Guild Emblem Tutorial before this and figured since it was so successful and helpful to so many people, I might as well take on a few more guides. I have a couple more in the process at the moment and hopefully I can get a guide for every profession going soon.
