Hello everyone, today I began to play on this server with my friend. Just by playing for a few minutes, it was really satisfying and it brought me back to the good old days! I read on the website that new players would receive a free weapon at the start of the game and a piece of gear at level 10.. but i didn't think it would have been a fabled one, instantly available for the use! When i used to play Aion, i loved getting stronger little by little, earning my gear with quests and hunting. This doesn't seem too fitting for my playstyle. I get that this is meant for those that don't really like to play the early stages of the game, but here's where i have a problem with this: my friend and I are not gonna use these free and OP stuff because we want to enjoy the super classic Aion experience; but if everyone is using them, probably in the future we will not find anyone available to do a Fire Temple, a Steel Rake, a Theobomos Lab or a Dark Poeta run, for example. Also, if we encounter some Asmos in Eltnen or Heiron, we will not stand a chance with our honest gear. Can someone confirm this or reassure me that there are also other players that love to play like us? That would be really good to hear! Thanks in advance for the answer, and see you in game!
