Are you a much travelled veteran? Do you rank among the elite of Atreia? Good, because the 20 Elite Levels are back! This time around they have new and exciting Elite Rewards such as the High Guard Leader's Noble Weapons Chest, the Farside Lightning Dragon King's Sublime Weapons Chest, the White Tiger, All-Powerful Enchantment Stones and many more awesome items. The 20 Elite Levels follow on from the 80 existing Veteran Levels.






The Elite Levels work as follows:

• If you’ve reached Veteran Level 80, each Gold Pack (30 days) used in the game increases your Elite Level by 1.
• Each Elite level you reach unlocks additional rewards which can only be assigned to one of your character.
• In contrast to the existing Veteran levels, the Elite Level rewards are not reset after 6 months, so they can be applied to another character.
• As with the regular Veteran levels, the individual rewards can be seen in the tooltips from the respective levels in the Veteran system.

Note: The Elite Levels released are only available for 3 months. After that, no further Elite Levels can be reached by activating Gold Packs (30 days).  

• Your existing Elite Rewards remain available to you. These can be viewed and assigned to an individual character in the section ‘Elite Rewards’ under ‘Manage bonuses’.
• In the overview you can still see which and how many Elite Levels you have achieved in the 3 months.
• A countdown shows how long the Elite Level period has to run.

We will occasionally release new Elite Levels, offering rewards close to players’ hearts which are useful for the gameplay. Newly released Elite Levels will be announced to you in due course.


Full details and rules surrounding the Veteran system can be found here in our FAQ.


Have fun levelling up on your adventures in Atreia!

It's time! The old season is ending and in AION there are three hot events coming up: show your crafting skill in the Crafting Event, grab the rewards in the Matryoshka Puppet Upgrade and let the best doctors and nurses in Atreia take care of you in the Healing Camp.


Running: 14/3 to 4/4


How are your magic handicrafts? Are you ready to craft powerful weapons in the Great Crafting Event? Show what you can do and dust off exquisite rewards.


Complete challenging crafting tasks with the help of Magical Crafting and boost your crafting ability. Once you've reached a set level you will receive high-quality rewards! You can find a full list of tasks and rewards further down.

• +250% drop chance (along with the activated permanent +50% and only in Nosra and Esterra)
• Reduced shop items
• Free shop items
• Extra drops by enemies

The following items are reduced by 33% during the event:

• Crafting Skill Improvement Scroll I (200%)
• Crafting Skill Improvement Scroll I (300%)
• Crafting Skill Improvement Scroll I (500%)
• High Daeva Crafting Bundle
• Morph Bundle for High Daevas

Free! You will receive these items for free:

• Crafting Skill Improvement Scroll III (100%)

Note: The free scroll is available once a day per account for all players level 10 and above. The scroll is not transferrable, not tradeable and cannot be sold on.


All over Nosra and Esterra your opponents drop various skill bundles that will be extremely useful to you when completing your crafting tasks.


Rewards for completing tasks 1-3 will also be delivered to players who already reached the required crafting skill level before the start of the event.


Task 1: Use Magical Crafting and reach crafting skill 100




Task 2: Use Magical Crafting and reach crafting skill 200




Task 3: Use Magical Crafting and reach crafting skill 300




Task 4: Craft a weapon from the Prones weapon range.




Note: The reward for the final mission can only be received 1x per character.






Running: 14/3 to 4/4


Artfully painted wooden puppets are totally in vogue right now in Atreia: Matryoshkas bring you exquisite items when you upgrade them! But make sure you don't break them.


You can look forwards exquisite items such as the Cute Minion Contract (14 types), the Dark Dragon King's Enhanced Weapons Chest, the Phantom Steed, the [Jakunerk] Superior Upgrade Serum and the 100% Mighty Manastone Socketing Aid (Mythical).






There are two ways of getting Matryoshka puppets:

• Get Matryoshka puppets as loot in the event instances. (Your chances of looting vary. Everyone in the group receives loot.)
• Get a +1 Matryoshka Pack in the AION shop.

Double-click the Matryoshkas in your inventory to upgrade them. They will either increase by one to three levels, or they will be destroyed. If they are destroyed, there's no need to be sad because you can exchanged ten broken puppets for a +1 Matryoshka and try the upgrade again.


If your Matryoshka breaks at Level 6 or 7, you will receive the [Jakunerk] Matryoshka's Gratitude. For broken Matryoshkas at Level 8 you will receive the [Jakunerk] Matryoshka's Gift and for broken Matryoshkas at Level 9 you will receive [Jakunerk] Matryoshka's Luck.


When you reach Level 9 you will receive [Jakunerk] White Matryoshka - e.g. you can get [Jakunerk] Magic Dye in the AION shop, for example.


If you managed to upgrade your Matryoshka to level 10, you'll receive the items [Jakunerk] White Matryoshka and [Jakunerk] Magic Dye. Combine the two and you'll receive the bundle [Jakunerk] Magic Matryoshka as a final reward.














Get one [Jakunerk] +1 Matryoshka in the AION Shop daily.


Note: This item is available once a day per account for all players level 30 and above. It cannot be transferred.


Running: 14/3 to 28/3


With all this action going on, sometimes even the greatest heroes need a break. The Healing Camp once again welcomes all Daevas who require a little reinvigoration. Pay the doctors and nurses in the towns a visit and receive treatment in the form of scrolls and potions.


You can find a full overview of the personnel as well as their shift pattern here.


Enjoy!

Greetings, Daeva!


It’s AION Free-to-Play’s birthday – we’re looking back on 6 years of thrilling experiences and shared adventure, defeated opponents and slain bosses, not to mention new content and great updates!

Speak to the Shugo at the entrance to the Rift of Oblivion to start your hunt. You can enter the instance every two weeks for one week (whenever the Kumuki instance is paused).

The following in-game events are live from 14/2 to 7/3; visit the Alchemists daily and receive valuable rewards. On top of that, win some great prizes in the Shugo Game – the Black Cloud Merchants are already waiting for you!


Time period: 14/2/2018 - 7/3/2018
Minimum level: 66


During the event period you can loot Experiment Bags in many of the instances. They each contain a [Jakunerk] Piece of Lead or a [Jakunerk] Alchemy Essence. If you combine the two together, you will receive either a gold or a copper key. The Copper Key will help you to open a normal chest, whilst the Gold Key will allow you to open a special chest.


Amongst others, there are rewards such as the Golden Joy Wings, the Noble +10 Manastone Box, Mighty Socketing Aid Box, the High Guard Leader's Noble Weapons Chest, High Guard Leader's Noble Armour Chest and the Bundle of Skill Cards.


Tip: during the event you will receive three free [Jakunerk] Alchemist's Experiment Bags every day in the AION Shop. You have to have reached level 66 for this.













Running: 14/2/2018 - 7/3/2018


The Black Cloud Merchants are hosting their popular Shugo Game once again, where you can win some terrific rewards – including the Stigma Enchantment Stone, the High Guard Leader's Armour Chest, the Noble Manastone Bundle +10, the 100% Mighty Manastone Socketing Aid (Mythical), the High Guard Leader's Accessories Chest, the [Lunashunerk] Bundle of Illusion Godstones (Additional Damage) and the [Lunashunerk] Bundle of Illusion Godstones (Special Statuses).


To take part, you will need Shugo Game Tokens, which you can purchase in the AION Shop from 14/2.


Free! Receive five Shugo Game Tokens free every Thursday after our Shop Update during the event (to a total of 15). Your character has to have reached level 66 for this.


How the Shugo Game works:

• Open the Shugo Game by clicking on the Shugo symbol at the bottom-right side of the screen.
• Then, by clicking on 'Continue', the game will start and a Shugo Game Token will be used up.
• Try to upgrade the weapon to the maximum level (8) to then earn reward of the highest level.
• Naturally you can click on 'Stop' at any time to end the game and collect the reward for the level that you have attained.
• The upgrading can also fail. Should this happen, you will receive the reward for level 1. If you wish to start from the beginning, you will need another Shugo Game Token.
• By using Shugo Game Tokens, the upper bar fills with Shugo Points. Once it is full, the Nyerk Fever begins. As long as this is active, your chances of successfully upgrading increase and it is more likely that you will win more valuable prizes.

Notes:

• You will automatically be given the prize for the level that you got to if you log out or switch to a different character while participating in the Shugo Game. The game cannot be continued.
• If you reach level 6 or higher and the upgrade fails, you will be able to use two additional Shugo Game Tokens to try again from the level that you failed at.

The following in-game events are live from 14/2 to 7/3; visit the Alchemists daily and receive valuable rewards. On top of that, win some great prizes in the Shugo Game – the Black Cloud Merchants are already waiting for you!
