Get behind the lake behind northshire

  1. First fly to Morgan’s vigil in the burning steppes
  2. Go to the far southwestern corner of burning steppes
  3. You should find some rocks that you can climb up, climb them and if you see green grass you’re almost there.
  4. Jump down, i would suggest using using noggenfogger elixir, from the thirsty goblin questline that you get from marin noggenfogger in gadgetzan. just keep drinking them and once you get the “you feel lighter” buff jump down, because it doesn’t last long
  5. Now you are in the water behind norhtshire.
  6. If you go all the way to the west you will find a place where the water just stops. you can do all sorts of fun little tricks with this, like swimming in the air if you go on the ledge and then swim. or you can fall through water if you swim of of the ledge( you should have your hearthstone ready if you do this because so far I haven’t found a way to get out).
  7. Thanks for reading about this and i hope you amaze all your friends!

    ok the pointer on the map is where the rocks are

Swagvault AION NA/EU Beginner’s Guide – Chapter I

I. Introduction

Unlike WOW, AION is a war game rather than raid game. In terms of equipments or quests design, AION is inclined to PVP rather than PVE.

II. Most Concerned Issues — Class Selection

Players who care about PVE, may ask which class can easily level up?
Players who care about PVP, may ask which class is relatively powerful?
So class selection is one of cutting points when beginners start to play AION. Personally, selecting the class should change modes of thinking.

Generally, players pay attention to skill balance among classes in WOW. In fact, the class balance in Korean games is below expectations at all time. Therefore AION adopts the idea of “vanquish”, e.g. Ranger can vanquish Sorcerer, Templar can vanquish Assassin, etc. The class balance in Korean games is far less professional than that of games in USA and Europe, so is AION. Personally, even the most powerful individual definitely cannot play excellently. NC advocates team balance. Although Ranger can vanquish Sorcerer, there is always one class that can vanquish Ranger in your team. Relative balance can be realized, when the scope is shifted from individual to team. Accordingly, class balance issue is transferred into team composition issue, meanwhile it can also stresses the importance of teamwork. Taking advantage of the new game idea, Korean has tactfully compensated for the weakness in game design.

Beginners must accept the new game idea as soon as possible and should realize that team composition cannot be ignored during class selection. Under a reasonable team composition, individual may coordinate personal preferences and strengths; members can foster strengths and circumvent weaknesses and also can help each other. The growth in AION is the running-in process with the team. Individual cannot conquer other classes in AION, but your team may achieve the goal. In the future, the enemy will rarely praise that how tough someone is in your guild, they will admire your powerful guild.

III. Most Concerned Issues — Equipment Issue

The analysis of equipment can help beginner to understand the core of game.
Take Golden Equipment for example, the followings are the same level ranked in order of excellence:
1 Abyss Golden Equipment
2 Crafting Golden Equipment
3 Golden Equipment acquired from Outdoor Bosses & Raid Bosses
Likewise, difficulty level in obtaining items also follows the above order.

NC think that PVP is the most challenging technical behavior. Equipments exchanged by abyss points, which are obtained through PVP, must be the ultimate.
The crafting master ranks the second. Depending on abundant funds and good luck, an ordinary person still cannot do it.
Grinding mobs is the lowest, so equipments obtained through this are the worst.

Obviously, AION is inclined to PVP rather than PVE.

In addition, equipments could be taken off from Boss in AION, but drop rate exists. The Golden Equipment may not drop although you try several times. Grinding mobs is the lowest, but it may take away large amounts of time and energy.

I can understand that most casual players grind and hunt outdoor boss just for fun. I just want to set forth the game’s development trend. Players need different equipments to continue gaming in different levels. The equipments in PVE have played an important role in the transition for a long time. The energy put in PVE needs continuously adjustment.

IV. Most Concerned Issues — Grabbing Resource

The shortage in resource exists in games of NC all the time, AION is no exception.
The number of mobs are not enough to meet the number of players and the drop rate of equipment is low, players should fight to grab everything. Because of the large expense, it is difficult to make ends meet. Players should grind hard early, then you will be a bit easier to survive in the future.

Beginner must make adequate psychological preparation for playing in AION. Because AION is not only a war game, but is a brutal war game. Ability to survive in leveling up actually is the first hurdle for every beginner.

In conclusion,
I. We help beginner select class, so as to help them foster right idea suitable for AION and remind them that team cooperation is the key to survive in AION.
II. We help beginner analyze equipment, so as to help them understand that AION is inclined to PVP.
III. We help beginner analyze resource, so as to make them mentally prepared to face impending challenges.

If the mentioned aspects are analyzed clearly, it is easy for beginner to understand the decisions made by decision-makers of guild in each section.

Group Leveling – Random People Edition

After a frustrating night of banging our heads into the brick wall that is Ivar, the regular group that I play with decided that they wanted a night off, so I went in game with an alt. It’s very important when you’re trying to level as a group not to get too far ahead of the other members of the fellowship. Since I was already 1 level ahead of some members, and alt was the only way to go, as much as my Warden may have been calling to me!

While I was running around North Downs, I saw a message in LFF asking for more fellowship members for Tending the Glade. Well, I decided to go for it, and joined up with a great group of people. We ended up doing Tending the Glade, as well as Defence of Treslebridge and a few other North Downs quests while we where in the area.

The one thing that I like about LOTRO, as I’ve mentioned several times before, is the quality of the community. People are always willing to help you out, I’ve never had anyone drop group the minute the quest was completed, and people are always willing to help you out if you have a couple of quests that you need help with.

So we ran around southern North Down, killed some goblins and orcs, and I got used to playing my guardian again! Even managed to throw out a Cor Pethroni invite while we where at it.

Thank random group of people!

 

See you in game!

Rogue: Making a autotargetting Sap


Sap is not spammable anymore , boohoo. Well, here is your solution!

Simply make this macro:

#showtooltip Sap
/targetenemy
/cast Sap

Spam this in arena, and it will sap anything stealthing around you (it targets it and saps it).
This also works in BGs, but because of the great many people around you, the /targetenemy may screw things up.

Probably the best way to grind gold


I have managed to make 1100 G/H this way. This is server depended, as epic gems are 50g or less on some servers.

REQ: Level 71+, opposite faction friends.
PLACE: Wintergrasp

Now, when you kill some1 in WG as a level 80 I get around 40 honor, and when I loot their corpse I get approx 1g.

TO-DO-LIST:

  • 1. Wait for WG to end.
  • 2. Get your opposite faction friends and make them go naked and sit next to a spirit resser.
  • 3. Kill them and loot their corpses, so if we say you got 5 friends, you get 5g + 200 honor off them every 30 seconds (Ress time is 30 seconds)

    PROFIT: 5g + 200 honor per 30 sec, 10g + 400 HP per minute, 600G + 24000 HP per hour, 1200G + 50k HP per 2 hours = 1200G + 5 Epic Gems (Around 1k gold) = 2200G per 2 hours = 1100G per hour.

    HF Grinding.

    PS: 10k honor points = 1 Epic Gem

    Age of Conan money tips

    First of all if you want to make cash in Age of Conan you should grind alone. It’s best way to obtain wealth and gold. Of course this type of playing can be really boring and frustrating, but HEY I WANT TO TALK ABOUT BEST WAY TO BE RICH! That’s all :-). Well, of course you can play in a group, but the reality is that most gold making activities are done solo. Of course in party you can kill more monsters, but party is never so fast to kill 5 x more monster in the same time as you can solo. If you’ve got doubts, just test it. 

     

    he can cast powerful AoE (area of effects) spells. Other classes are ok, but they are not-so-good-like-good-ol-Demonologist. Second place has Necromancer with his undead minions. Playing solo, you get every drop. In a group, you need to roll for every item, so in fact, if you are unlucky you can get NOTHING.

    Like in other MMORPG, like World of Warcraft, Warhammer Online or Lord of the Rings Online -You should gather all items, and sell most of them on Auction House. You can find Auction House in every big city in Age of Conan. Well, Auction House strategy in AoC is complicated thing, so I just write something next time, but you should know that Auction House can be 80% of your gold income. Most valuable items are blue and purple (epic) items, but you can also sell green ones. White items you should sold to vendors.  I suggest to pick enormous price for these ones. If nobody buys it, you can always list it again, so you shouldn’t worry about that. You should be like guy without MERCY. Only gold and money ;-). If you are tough while doing business, you will be rich player.

    tips for returning assasssins

    Here is a short guide/information that I have put together so people have easier time adjusting to 1.5 reality.

    Combo mechanics
    You have to “land” every combo “step” in order to deal 100% damage. If you miss one combo step you will see one of combo’s “arrow” light up red. Missing a combo step will apply penality of -5% damage.

    Game mechanics
    Dubble tapping and using active block no longer gives buff
    Dubble tapping backwards puts evade buff on cooldown

    Combo steps
    Combos got their steps reduced.

    Combo changes
    - Lots of cooldown changes
    - Grim corruption and Slow Death Strikes combo tiers now share cooldowns (example: using GCIII will put also put cooldown on GCII)

    Grim corruption
    a) it applies snare
    b) it applies debuff. Debuff type is dependant on stance in which GC is applied.

    Feat changes

    Lotus tree
    a) Flesh rot - adding points will also add damage to corrupted backlash, it is instant now, can be used while moving (upgraded)
    b) Blindside - it now deals more damage and drains more stamina from your target (upgraded)
    c) Lotus weapon - it now always proc, does more damage (upgraded)
    d) Swift ending - it now proc sooner (uprgraded)
    e) Lotus overdoes - it no longer applies any penality (upgraded)
    f) Furry of blows - longer duration (uprgaded)
    g) Assassination - bigger bonus (uprgaded)
    h) Corrupted body - it adds protection bonus on damage (reworked)
    i) Curse of Lotus - limited to 12 targets, no casting time, instant (upgraded)

    Corruption tree
    a) Unholy Strenght - it adds 5% damage intead of 10% (nerfed)
    b) Life leech - it heals more (upgraded)
    c) Unholy armor - gives 50% bonus to your armor (changed, nerfed)
    d) Death’s gaze - it is instant now (upgraded)
    e) Avatar of death - duration is 15s now from 20s (nerfed)
    f) Seeds of corruption - it applies debuff for HP regeneration, if GC is used the seeds will “explode” and deal instant damage (reworked)
    g) Lunge - it now adds 70% weapon damage, 20s cooldown (reworked)
    h) Burden to bear - applies armor debuff, more points give higher chance to proc (changed)
    i) From the darkness - it stuns, captures soul shard (changed)

    General tree
    a) Quick recovery - adds stamina regeneration (reworked)
    b) Excellent balance - needs only 1 point, 1 m cooldown (changed)
    c) Lethality - adds weapon damage, poor choice for assassins (new)
    d) Agile mind - it is now clickable, each point added reduces its cooldown from 9 to 3 (reworked)
    e) Ambush - it no longer gives damage boost (nerfed)

    Combos usefull in PVP and PVE
    Swift Strikes are still our bread and butter,
    Slow Death Strikes deal a lot of damage,
    Grim Corruption mainly debuffs target

    How to use combos in typical PVP/PVE encounter
    1) Apply debuff (Grim corruption)
    2) Apply slow death strikes
    3) Use swift strikes

    PVE Leveling speccs

    Lotus/general - snurl.com/n7hpp

    Corruption/general - snurl.com/n7hr7
    note: when close to lvl80 feel free to drop second wind for from the darkness

    There haven’t been any great changes to assassins. It safe to say that your experience and “feel” of this class will remain mostly unaffected in 1.5.

    Warhammer online trick: Make 130 gold as newbie

    Get the salvaging skill, and go to any craft supply merchant.

    The merchant there sells Shattered Figurine for 18 copper.

    You can then salvage these into Silent Essence which sell for 50 copper.

    Its not much money, but for low levels on a new server, it’s a fairly easy way to get a few gold.

    You can make about 5.4 gold an hour, or 130 gold a day.
