NCsoft fixed some 'visual bugs', as they stated, back in version 4.5 if I'm not mistaken. Those absolutely unnecessary fixes caused a bug, where you would not be able to auto-attack while moving, or while the target is behind you, if your FPS are below 60. This is pretty much what you are experiencing right now. I was able to find a video explaining this (kind of): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xG28yOZmq6I

Mit mehr Infos könnte man dir eher helfen (Waffe, Content, Gruppen-Setup, tatsächlicher DPS, ...), aber probier das aus: https://aion.aspirine.su/stigma/#cCnajghhofBgbtekdcaugwdycBbaBea

In this patch, a Gladiator's "white attack" value consists of its weapon attack, as shown by @CCCP, and the base stat "Power", which is 115. This means the white attack value you see in your profile is in reality 15% higher than it actually is. To calculate your actual "base attack" you have to add your weapon's min- and max-attack and divide it by two. If you add 15% from "Power" on top of that, you'll get the white attack value you see in your profile. Example: 699 white attack in profile 457-759 weapon attack (457 + 759) / 2 = 608 base attack 608 * 0.8 = 486 additional attack by using Berserking

At level 38 I'd probably go with Silence Arrow, Arrow Deluge and Bow of Blessing. A bit later on you should definitely get Bestial Fury and Focused Shots.

Okay, let's have a quick talk about "normal" Sins. Normal Sins usually weave blindly aa-skill-aa-skill-aa-skill and so on, regardless of the skill they use. This means they use an autohit, press a skill and then literally sit there and wait for the next autohit timer, to follow up with the next skill. You can do that if you are a dual wielding Gladiator, since Gladiator's skills have really long animations (except for maybe the Body Smash chain or Sure Strike in later patches), but the Assassin has many skills with very short animations, which allows you to spam two skills while still getting the following autohit timer, without any loss. This results in more skills used in the same period of time and thus, more damage than usual. If we take a look at the screenshots, we'll realize that the Sin is doing exactly that. He's pairing Encircling Strike and Rune Carve during his burst on Pashid. Also Fang Strike + Beast Kick (very short animations), Assassination + Killing Spree and 2x Killing Spree (which are basically exactly the same), then the single Rune Carve is a misplay (the only one I've seen tbh), followed by Fang Strike + Beast Kick again. And so on. You get the point. If I say "any Sin can perform like that", I mean any Sin that wants to. Most Aion players are just lazy and ignorant though. PS: I'm not playing Sin, so I can't help you out directly, but Para has already offered himself as a test subject and I'm sure he'd be able to perform well enough, so hf.

As long as the ping isn't unreasonably high, yes. Also yes. No need for Synapse or anything similar though.

At the top of the last screenshot, at 20:16:17, the player is killing a Pod, while using skill-aa-skill in one second and then again skill-aa-skill in another. Absolutely normal phenomenon. At the bottom of the same screenshot he's getting parries on Pashid, while using aa-skill and skill-aa-skill in two separate seconds. That's just how things work. Nothing special. But if we look at the first screenshot you posted, we'll see that something's different. - He's using aa-skill-aa-skill in a single second on Pashid (20:17:25; 20:17:31). - He's not getting any parries at all. - He just started attacking Pashid (visible by the target-filter in the upper left corner and the fact that the scrollbar is at the very top). This makes some things very obvious: He has saved Oath of Accuracy and Flurry for his initial burst on the boss, which is why his attackspeed is higher, allowing him to push in one more autohit in the same second - which is, like I already said, mathematically fine.

If this is done with Word of Wind or Flurry, then yes, absolutely possible and to be expected. If it's without, then definitely not possible. Not even with Dagger/Dagger (which isn't the case... in this case). You should be able to check for buffs with this version of ARM.

There's a separate questline for Aethertechs in this version of the game. You have less campaign quests than other classes (none in Brusthonin/Theobomos iirc), but more blue quests with similar tasks to balance it out. So yes, it's normal.

Are you going to report every single gunner you see on this server? Yet again, it's only 5 skills in 4 seconds. I'd suggest you look up the class and its skills to learn about that stuff.

It's 10 skills in 6 seconds, actually.

As i've never seen any of those people in my entire life, I'm pretty sure I'll be able to look at this situation from a neutral standpoint, so let's analyze it. At the beginning of the video we can see the Tech and the Chanter standing around and not targeting each other, while the Ranger is invisible. This seems slightly suspicious, but let's call it a tactical move. At 00:23, the Tech joins the fight between the Chanter and the Ranger after both used their Remove Shock skills and starts attacking the obviously squishier Ranger. Looks fine. 00:30, the Ranger dies while the Chanter is at 25% HP and blinded by the Sandstorm Trap. The AT - instead of hunting him down - makes a few steps in the opposite direction and then runs after the Relic. Doesn't make much sense, but the round was literally about to end, so yea, whatever. But the fact that the Chanter didn't target the Tech while running away is still a little bit weird... As if he already knew the AT wouldn't attack him. 01:32, the Tech could've done the last hit on the Chanter, but didn't. 02:35, again Chanter vs Ranger. Both are at 5% HP and the Tech incs. The Tech decides to go after the Ranger which is behind a corner and ignores the Chanter which is right in front of him. He kills the Ranger and double boosts away from the Chanter instead of attacking him. This makes absolutely no sense. He could have safely killed both of them if he attacked the Chanter first and the Ranger after that. Not attacking the class that can heal itself while it's at 5% first and giving it actually time to heal itself is kinda sus. Completely ignoring the class is even more sus. 03:10 the AT takes fall damage... For some reason. AT and Chanter are both in each others attack range, but instead of attacking, the AT targets the Ranger (03:14) and then removes his target completely. The Ranger jumps down and gets completely raped by both of them. The Tech loses 30% of his HP and uses Remove Shock in the process. The Chanter, instead of attacking the AT, which is in the first place and an easy target at this moment, ignores him and runs away in another direction. The AT doesn't bother to select the Chanter, because he seems to know that he isn't going to be chased anyway. 03:50, contrary to Pacts' statement, the AT does not actually prioritise the Chanter. In fact, we can see him use Cinder Cannon and Gattling Gun (the ranged skills) on the Ranger, followed by Chilling Wave and Riplash, which are both frontal AoEs, immediately followed by Electric Shock on the Ranger. The chance of the AT having targeted the Chanter at any time is very close to zero. 04:11, the Chanter has already respawned, but completely ignores the 30% HP Tech which is standing right in his face. He attacks the full HP Ranger instead (04:24). 04:48, the Tech does the last hit on the Ranger and yet again completely ignores the 30% HP Chanter which already used Remove Shock. None of them is targeting the other one. 05:08, the Chanter is below 20% HP and rooted by the Ranger. The AT could easily kill him by using Cinder Cannon. The AT decides to attack the 95% HP Ranger. After they both kill him, the AT just sprints away. 05:30, the AT sees an easy target and runs towards the Ranger. He buffs up to the fullest; the Ranger dies in the water or whatever that shit is and the AT just does a 180 and runs away. Fully buffed. Ye. 05:55, the Ranger is the last one in the ranking. If the Chanter joins him in the fight against the Tech (which is very close to him, at 60% HP, rooted and without Remove Shock), he would win. The Chanter instead decides to kill the Ranger and to run away from the Tech. To summarize it: The Tech has hit the Chanter, like, twice? With his AoE, while focussing the Ranger. So basically by accident. The Chanter on the other hand didn't hit the AT even once. Btw, I don't think the Ranger "stopped trying" or "started trolling and fucking around" at the end. Maybe he was a little frustrated and did some mistakes because of that, but I'm pretty sure that it wasn't on purpose. I mean, at 00:05, he uses Bestial Fury and Focused Shots for no reason, losing his Hide and the advantage in the process, while standing right beside the Chanter. That's just how he plays. He also could have milked it much more while he was standing on the balcony at 03:15, to make the teaming even more obvious, but he didn't, since he was aiming for the win and not for some unrightful ban or whatever. Also, the fact that the Chanter and AT are seemingly both from the same legion and the legion seems to have some beef with the Ranger doesn't make it any better. My opinion: 100% teaming, 100% against the rules, 100% deserved a temporary ban. It's fine to join the arena with your buddys, but damn, act accordingly.

I suggest you get the Battle Shield for ancient coins [item:115001604] since it's one of the best PvE-shields in the game. Easy to get and very easy to enchant to +5 to get the full 70% damage reduction on blocks. If you go full crit+19, you'll probably have around 5 slots left for non-crit manastones. You can use HP+105 to fill these slots, if you want, but I personally would use attack+7, because, well, ~500 HP aren't going to save you, but damage is damage.
