Wings Over Atreia: A guide to Aion’s Elyos spy quests in Beluslan

Filed under: Fantasy , Aion , Opinion , Free-to-Play , Wings Over Atreia , Guides Last time we met, we chatted about the spy quests that enticed Elyos to infiltrate Morheim. But even though Morheim is where Aion’s spy questing starts for the light-winged, it is certainly not where that questing ends! As Daevas move along the leveling curve, more opportunities to rift into new enemy lands arise. However, unlike the lower-level zone’s quests that focused more on introducing players to rifting in Aion , Beluslan spy quests are predominantly specific chains leading players through story arcs and toward a determined goal

Wings Over Atreia: Aion adopts lockboxes

Filed under: Fantasy , Aion , Game mechanics , Opinion , Free-to-play , Wings Over Atreia It was bound to happen. Rare is the free-to-play game that evades incorporating this quintessential cash-shop concoction. The good news is, if you entered a pool for when NCsoft would introduce lockboxes into Aion and your date was January 30th, congratulations — you won! Of course, this may have been one pot that you were secretly hoping no one would ever claim; there are certainly those who have a deep-seated hatred for lockboxes and all they purportedly represent.

Filed under: Fantasy , Aion , Contests , Events, real-world , Expansions , Free-to-play Immortalize yourself in Aion ! Previously, NCsoft gave players the chance to make their mark in Aion by designing a unique weapon for the Gunner class in the upcoming 4.0 update; now, it’s the Bard’s turn.
