Aion’s official Korean site announced that a couple of Aion players got married last week. The couple met in-game during the Korean beta phase and after three years got hitched. Korean Aion community extended their congratulations on 6 pages of comments along with the Korean community managers. Whether they did some PvP in the Abyss during their wedding night or something else remains undisclosed *wink wink nudge nudge*.

We just noticed that Aion support sent this warning out, via their Twitter account:

WARNING! Because of Bot Bans, RMT is now hacking PPL to get money back. Do not share your info with anyone (even us!) And don’t buy gold!^^

You have been warned …

It took us a while but we finally updated our quests database with patch 1.5.1 data. I tried explaining to the developers that there is a deadline and that they are way past it, but all I got as the response was the above image. The fact that I am the developers and that I was exchanging post-it notes with myself did not help the situation one bit. I hope that the updated information will help you though.

There is a bug with the quest reward items currently and it should be fixed in the next couple of hours. We all hope that future releases will be much faster and smoother and we hope you enjoy the new data.

While upgrading our quest database to the latest patch we were able to notice a couple of nice statistical regularities. We thought we share them with the Aion community.

The following quests have had their drop rates increased:

[Group] Hairpin Ahoy!
[Group] The Pirates’ Pouch
[Group] Plunder the Pirates
[Group] Hat of the Steel Beard Pirates
[Group] Black Cloud Ledgers
[Group] A Present for Father

305 quests have had their XP increased. The increase is an average of 416688XP points per quest. The quest that had its XP reward increased the most is [Alliance] Reshanta’s Hero (2715525XP points).

If you have a need for any other cool facts we’ll try and dig them out for you. Just leave a comment with what you’re interested in.

Korean Aion players owning an Iphone have a chance of checking out their character and even do some Auction House trading on their phone. The application is called AionTem and you can purchase it for $4.99 at the appstore. It even has a monthly subscription of its own ($1.99).
