Does it happen while gathering/harvesting?

That's one of the Free Account restrictions - you can only gather a certain amount per day or something like that.

Hey everyone,

I ignored my school counsellor's advice and started experimenting with other MMO's. I'd like to give AION a go, but don't have the bandwidth to spare. Could any kind soul in the Durban Metro area provide me with some assistance?

Can do...

After splashy though just pm me details
 
I'm Elyos on Perento - I'll just warn you beforehand that if you decide to play Asmo on that server you may accidentally run into one of my Ranger's arrows :p Little bastards can't be trusted - they go all over the place.
 
Okay started to download the client and it should hopefully be done when I get home.

Just want to know, if anyone is still active and how restrictive is their F2P model?

I have to ask ... which client are you downloading? A friend of mine ran into this issue when she downloaded the client off the NCSoft site - because that's the NA client, which is, at this point, completely different from the EU one. If you downloaded via aionfreetoplay.com, you're all good.

Okay - key differences. NA is on Aion 3.0 - which includes mounts, housing, new quests, instances and areas/regions. I haven't run into any restrictions there - but its entirely possible I just haven't played enough to hit them yet. But I find no mention of restrictions on their site, so I don't think there are any. Server population on the one server I visited was pretty decent.

EU is still on Aion 2.7 - and while GameForge seems happy to update the in-game store, there's been no word on when we'll be getting 3.0 this side. There are plenty of restrictions - you can't trade in the auction-house, can't create a legion (this might have changed), longer cool-down times on most of the instances (up to a week in some cases), lower AP, medals and insignias earned from PvP/Fort combat, restrictions with regards to gathering (they've increased it a bit though).

Servers are pretty much dead - it's difficult to get groups for most instances unless you're a cleric or a templar (and then be prepared for spam-heaven, because everyone is looking for you) - most groups are elite instance sell-runners, so if you're looking to get geared up you're going to have a hard time of it.

Compared to each other, NA is actually a more attractive prospect, even with double the lag. Europe might pick up if they release version 3.0 here, but GameForge is pretty damn pathetic in overall terms.
 
It' the aionfreetoplay.com version I'm downloading.

Cool thanks for the info.

I don't really care fr the PvP / Arena aspects of MMO's and I'm not into raids or instances all that much, only GW2 will get me hooked onto that. I will be playing the campaign(s) and see how far I can get in completing it.

So what server should I join? US or EU? What server are you playing on?
 
We all on EU - perento

Or how we like to call it Zergento

What he said.

I've got an account on one of the US servers that I pop onto from time to time, but for the most part I'm still on the EU servers in the vague hope that we'll see 3.0 before Guild Wars 3 is released.

(yes ... I meant to type 3 there - it's not a typo :p )
 
Part of any guilds?

Need some people to at least chat to when I'm online or complete some content with.
I ascended last night and got to Pandaemonium.

Also what are your IGN?

IGN: Arealis
 
How is it on the new servers?

I just played like 20 mins when the servers went live just to make sure my account transferred correctly, wasn't really that motivated playing on my own.

If I remember correctly my Elyos was on perento 42~ something, just know I farmed Kromeda(spelling?) quite a bit, now I'm not even sure if that was before or after the change... oh well.
