According to Ten Ton Hammer – Havoc broke out as players spent their ill gotten gains, mailed around coin and awaited the inevitable roll back to rectify a clear server glitch, – 34 trillion Kinah? Well it’s sure a fantastic amount of money, but… Ncsoft managers had to use a last option thingy, and they deleted about 14 h of character progression – yes folks, 14 h of your game time. As an apology for the downtime, we’ll be rewarding everyone on the Azphel server with five Lodas Amulets later this week, – Aion’s community manager. Lodas Amulets for everyone? If you don’t remember what is exactly this Lodas Amulet….

Lodas Amulet
While Lodas Amulet is active, you gain 20% additional XP from hunting. The effect lasts 1 hour, and the cooldown time is 9 hours. (This 9 hour cooldown is very long, but in other hand 20% XP bonus is really handy).

Another thing today is Aion Online double XP weekends. If you are tired of slow progression in Aion Online, developers plan to double experience during your weekend farming! Well, you probably know how things are around level 20 or something like that. EXP boost counts also to crafting experience! Experience boost is limited only levels 1-35 and is planned for once or twice a month. For me it’s OK – it’s great idea because I’m very busy all week, but on Saturday or Sunday I just do what I want!

See you again!

And now what about voice? Well, just to give you an idea, the Aion voiceover localization process involved:

Approximately 200 speaking parts
200 voiced cinematics/cut scenes
8,000-10,000 lines of dialog
45,000 voice audio files
Three weeks of recording time (not including additional voice pickups)

Cinematics are excellent (at least those that I have been watching) and bring into play a great fantasy atmosphere – NCSoft have performed them at a very high level.

Templar
Templar is typical tank class – class designed to shield their allies and take all blows on the chest. To remain effective, the Templar should stay on or close to the front firing line.

Water spirits concentrate on healing powers and ranged DPS, Earth spirits hold strong defensive abilities, Fire spirits excel in close range attacks and Wind spirits are proficient at speed and melee, magic attacks. He can also attack with his powerful long-range attacks.
