Aion Summer Event: Scorching Heat

Tamat has announced that Atreia Summer Event – Scorching Heat is officially on its way, beginning this Wednesday September 15, until October 13. If you don’t know how to get the Scorching Heats don’t worry. Like the Korean version of the event the Scorching Heats will be earned automatically while online. You can expect to see one every 20 minutes of online play. Additionally, you can get white and black dyes as well. The quest NPC (located in Sanctum and Pandaemonium) are marked with a red quest indicator on your map.

Rick Damland of the Atreian Weather Service has just informed us that summer is officially on its way, after a record breaking four month long spring. The report indicated that beginning this Wednesday, September 15, until October 13, all of Atreia will experience scorching temperatures, which will finally give female MuMus an excuse to wear those hideous bikinis.

It’s getting hot in here, so put on summer clothes! When summer begins on September 15th, you’ll be rewarded street cred scorching heat automatically as you adventure. As you collect scorching heat, you’ll be able to purchase frozen boxes to help you keep cool. These boxes can be used to claim swim suits, coins, polymorph candies and even dyes. Make sure to stay hydrated, Daevas—we’ll see you in-game!

Eye on the latest Aion bugs

With the latest Aion update Assault on Balaurea several bugs have been noticed:

  1. Players with Error 72
    Some users have been able to resolve the issue by manually downloading .patch files and deleting “scanned.dat” in the Aion install directoryfiles from their Aion directory. We have received clearance to offer this as a solution until the launcher has been pushed with a current fix. To download the patch files follow the links:

    2. If you are continuing to experience errors in download please contact Customer Technical Support by e-mail at support@ncsoft.com.
    Call by Phone: Phone customer service for billing and technical issues from Monday through Friday, 12 noon to 5 p.m. CT, by calling (512) 225-6359. Phone support for in-game issues is not available.

  2. Can’t Use Skills
    Some of you are experiencing this due to the launcher not updating correctly this morning. This is a network issue and the network operations team is working resolving this. Please try to update and repair again to see if this resolves the issue for you.
  3. I just got Kicked from the Server
    Sorry guys there was no way to warn you. The reboot of an auth server shouldn’t have kicked you from the server at all.. but it did. Servers themselves weren’t being rebooted. The auth deals with logging in. You should be able to log back in normally.
  4. 2.0 crafting question
    The craft window used to contain a number next to a recipe that indicated how many of that item you could craft/morph based on the materials you had available in your inventory. This number seems to have disappeared with the 2.0 update.
    It looks like a UI bug where the number is getting cutoff.

If you have noticed any other bug just let us know and we’ll try to find an answer.

Scorching Heats for Aion Event quest

I’ve recently noticed several summer NPCs in swimming trunks. My first impression was – I want a swimming suit for my toon! But I couldn’t figure out how to get scorching heats for this event. Like Serlain said: It isn’t fighting in general, gathering, lava damage, fighting things that do fire damage, or sitting naked in the pool near the summer NPCs.

As you have noticed, the NPCs for the Aion Summer Event are in the capital cities. These NPCs are going to be in town for awhile, but the event itself is not turned on yet.. so… No scorched heat yet! [Trine]

So, I hope Summer Event will start sooooon!

Aion 2.0. Information

You have probably noticed on your NCsoft launcher information that Aion 2.0 update will be ready on 9/8/2010. Although the official line is that this is just a bug, Aion fans seem to be a little suspicious about “extended maintenance”.

Actually this is just a bug with the launcher, there will be an extended maintenance on the 7th of Sept, the servers will be patched to 2.0, – so will game clients. The servers will come up all patched and ready to go on the 7th of Sept. [Faelan]

While you may not believe that this maintenance should not be longer than the 1.9 update maintenance, the good news is that there will be external sources for downloading the patch like Fileplanet, Gamershell, Steam and an Official Torrent.

Also, one of the big questions is will we be able to rename AionPTS to AionEU/US and play?

As with the 1.9 PTS/Live release, its not recommended by us to copy and rename the current PTS client into your live client. [Faelan]
