Three Quick Tips for Easy Kinah in Aion



Kinah is the equivalent of gold currency in the new MMO, Aion. When you get started in the game, you will have only a couple of hundred Kinah and then will need to boost your way up to hundreds of thousands or even millions of the little coins so that you can boost your way to the top of the game and get the highest level items out there.

Just your Level 30 wings along will cost you 1 million Kinah and the costs only go up from there, so if you do not properly balance and prepare yourself for everything you need when you get to the top of the leveling chart, you’re going to be very far behind.

1. Choosing the Right Craft

The first thing you will do at Level 10 is choose your craft. That craft can be one of 6 different options including Armorcrafting, Alchemy, Cooking, Tailoring, Handicrafting, or Weaponcrafting. Gathering is just one skill and anyone can use it, so you should make sure to max out your extraction skill as you level - all the way up to 399 at level 50.

The best professions for Kinah making are the ones that are going to be high in demand at all times. Early in the game’s life span that means Handicrafting, Armorcrafting, Tailoring and Weaponcrafting. However, as more players reach level 50 and start running instances and the Abyss, you will find that Alchemy and Cooking become very popular as well.

2. Using the Private Store Feature Properly

The private store is a very unique, highly effective way to sell of your crafted goods, farmed greens and blues, and all the other rare items you can land while hunting. The best way to use your Private Store though is to specialize in one type of item that you can put all your efforts into farming on. Then, find a good place to set up shop, outside of instances or in various towns and villages and stake out a good time to log on. If you can put yourself in front of eager buyers at the right time, you can make some great profits.

3. Buying and Selling at the Trade Broker

The trade broker is the Aion equivalent of the Auction house and can be a very useful tool for making sales on your items. You get 8 days per listing and it will cost you Kinah to load those items up into the broker. Use the broker to buy up cheap and valuable items and resell them for top profits when they are in higher demand.
This is just one set of ways that you can make serious Kinah in Aion. If you’re truly serious about making some good hard cash in the game, you can also go about getting it by loading up on the different huntable mobs in the game. This might include anything from the rare named mobs in high level areas to the basic drops you can get from any of the Balaur mobs located in the Abyss. Whatever you decide to do, every aspect of your gameplan should revolve around getting more Kinah as fast as possible.

Three Buffing Systems Explained in Aion



For anyone used to more western style MMOs, the buffing systems in Aion may be a little foreign to you. Having a very clear overview of how these systems will affect your gameplay will help you become that much better suited to the streamlined, fast paced combat of Aion at the higher levels.

Titles

Titles are in almost every MMO on the planet, but they are a little different in Aion in that they actually provide a bit of a stat boost for anyone that gets them. You can only choose one title at any given time, but it can often take long and convoluted quest chains to unlock the rarest and best of the titles.

There are between 2 and 10 titles available for most major zones for each race, so you’ll need to do some research on how to get them and where to find them as you level up.

Manastones

Manastones are the fundamental means of boosting the different stats of your character. You can put a manastone on almost every different armor slot on your character. This allows you to find and line up the different stats your particular character needs. Later in the game, you’ll be able to change the manastones into other manastones so that you can snag only the stats you need. The top three manastone stats to boost include Physical Critical Strike, Attack Power, and Magic Boost. These three stats are also the most expensive many times over.

Enhancements

The next thing you should focus on is enhancements for your gear. This is a completely different thing altogether that will allow you to extract various items from gear that you’ve farmed or bought off the Trade Broker and then use your various professions to craft them together.

The best way to take advantage of this situation is to load up on the different enhancements you can make before you start crafting items. The better your enhancements, the more possible it might be to land yourself with some rare procs that will provide you with a variety of boosts to the gear you are crafting.

These are just three of the many different buffing systems in Aion that will allow you to specialize how your character plays and what you will get out of them as you progress in levels. Do it right and you’ll be light years ahead of your opponents when it comes time to master the various content.

Choosing the Right Class for Aion



Aion, the newest game on the market for the highly addictive MMO genre has reached the west and with it a slew of new options for people who are just getting into the game. So, for many players, it is a hard road to figure out which character class is going to be best for you. Here is a brief run through of the 4 general classes and 8 more specific options you’ll have to choose from when you start playing the game full time:

Warriors

Warriors are your typical melee class, suited for tanking, melee damage output, and just all around solid bashing. Warriors break down into two classes at Level 10 – Gladiators and Templars. Gladiators are the offensive version of this class, putting up high offensive and low defensive numbers for melee damage output. They are good for PvP combat for that reason. On the other side of things is the Templar who will be the quintessential tank in the game, carrying a shield and taking damage like a pro.

Priests

Priests come in two varieties, both of which are meant to heal, but in starkly different ways. At Level 10, you’ll be able to choose between Clerics and Chanters. The clerics will be the more traditional healers among the group who deal the best healing numbers. Chanters on the other hand are more of a hybrid that will dole out Mantras for group buffs and heal when needed. They can also fight a bit with their two handed staves.

Mages

Mages are damage dealers but come in multiple flavors as well. At level 10, you can choose to become either a Sorcerer or a Spiritmaster. The Sorcerer is more of a traditional nuking Mage with lots of DPS and plenty of mana to draw on. Spiritmasters on the other hand are more like Warlocks in WoW, in that they have spirits they summon to help with DPS and buffing. They rely a lot on DoTs and stackable damage.

Scouts

Scouts make up the ranged and melee damage dealers who are high on avoidance. At Level 10, you can choose between an Assassin or a Ranger – each of which provides a starkly different set of skills. Assassins are pretty much Rogues in that they hit fast and hard with dual wielded daggers and stealth. Rangers are pretty much Hunters or Scouts in that they hit from range and wear better armor.

When you get started, you will get to choose between the four supra-classes, but after you reach Level 10 and become a Daeva, you will be upgraded and be allowed to choose a more specific class for each, as listed with each one. Ideally, having a clear idea of which classes are out there and how they affect your game play will allow you to have a much faster and more streamlined start to the game.
