Hello Daevas,

We would like to talk to you about an issue we've been getting lots of feedback on lately for Aion: Classic. Specifically, about how certain items are not being included in the droplist or with unexpected drop rates for certain zones and in the open world – to put it broadly: the "drop rate issue." Although this change was applied to all regions including our own, it clearly is not representative of our region’s needs. We have been continually taking your feedback to discuss this issue with HQ and as of this week, we have almost finalized an agreement.  

We stayed silent longer than we would typically do so, because we wanted to have a resolution in place before sharing it with everyone. We are working to finalize the resolution for our region over the next couple weeks, and we will share it with you as soon as it is decided. This is (and has been) our highest priority and will be implemented as quickly as possible.

We know this has taken a heavy toll on the community and want to reassure you all that we have been reading all the messages from Rin and our other Community Managers, as well as the other posts on the forums. Seeing all our incredibly passionate players dealing with such a strong pain point for so long without a resolution is unacceptable to us, and we have been working tirelessly to ensure that our solution will address your needs. We appreciate each and every one of you and we are continually trying to improve our service of the game.

To help the community while we wait for these changes to come to Classic, starting next week we’ll be running the following events:

  • Dungeon Delve Returns
  • Fantastic Login Bundle Season 2
  • Mega Boost Festival
    • 200% EXP
    • 200% Abyss Points Gained
    • 200% Kinah dropped

We look forward to celebrating Aion for many more years, and from us here at NC, we hope we can all come together to create a better tomorrow.

Sincerely,

The Aion Producers: Loki, Andrew, and Min.
