What's new

  • Gathering and crafting — the page is rewritten for global and made visual: the Essence Extraction skill tree (Proficient Handling and Delicate Touch to 10, Lady Luck at most 5, Odyle plus your weapon's resource), what each branch is for, Odyle morphing into any resource, and the crafting chain from grey to gold.
  • Elementalist: PvE and PvP — the class now has full PvE and PvP modes for Season 1, built on Evripides' global Spirit Master guide (aion2sm.com) and checked against DankRNG and aLuckyRO: skills and specializations, stigmas, passives, the buff-before-summon rule, rotation, macro, matchups and the Daevanion route.
  • World bosses — all 48 field bosses of Verteron and Altgard with their respawn timers: mark a kill and the page shows when the boss is back (and notifies you, if notifications are on). Every boss now shows where it spawns.
  • Sorcerer — skill priority rebuilt on a global level-45 Sorcerer (EUTOPIA): Hellfire and Firestorm are now core, Ice Chain is optional, Frost and Frost Burst leave the bar.
  • Chanter — from two Chanter mains on global (notXeon, WallyJTV): Recuperation 12 is enough, Power of the Storm is a core stigma, Inspiring Spell moves up, plus a macro tip for before Dark Crush 16.
  • Gladiator, Ranger, Templar, Assassin, Cleric — checked against the first global guides (aLuckyRO, Sen, LordRobson, trueeevil): day-one picks and alternatives added — Keen Strike and Aerial Snare on bosses, Explosive Arrow as an equal fourth stigma, Executing Blade for solo Templars, Determination over Impact Hit, early Cleric passives.
  • Leveling checklist — the stigma slots open one at a time at levels 22, 27, 32 and 37.
