| Aion Improves Veteran Rewards, But What About Dungeon Drop Rates? |
In a swift update that caught most Aion players by surprise, NCSoft released a sexier line-up of Veteran Rewards covering subscription Months 7 – 11. Loyal players who stuck with Aion since its launch last September have been receiving bonus items under the Veteran Rewards program. Everyone liked the idea of freebies, but many wished to receive a more permanent or useful item than the Lodas amulets handed out as Months 1-6 reward. If they are doing things the same they will probably have you verify some previous information. Such as your old credit card number, your old email address, when you might of created your account, your old password (rarely do companies do this one), and they might even have you send in a copy of your drivers license to help prove it was you. This way they can be sure you are the real account holder and give you your account back with all its items. However the downside is you probably cant get your items back there might be a chance but its less than likely. While altaholics and AP grinders rejoiced at the new rewards, I couldn’t help but feel bad for the raiders who still suffer from pitiful drop rates in elite dungeons like Dark Poeta. One just has to look at the first EU server kill of Tahabata Pyrelord–the ultimate boss in Dark Poeta–which yielded two measly items, including a so-so blue headband. At least they got an Anuhart’s Elite Dirk for their trouble, but NCSoft should seriously raise the loot drops for this very difficult encounter. Because with more players reaching the end-game and new content from Version 1.9 still nowhere in sight outside of Korean servers, endgame raids are one of the few reasons we players are logging in. Also if they account hacker was evil they might of deleted your account and if NC Soft has no policy on that then you will loose your account as well. |
