CLEAN-UP

Guidezworld: Posted a link in our forums to his FREE game guide site at  http://www.aionguidez.com/

Shane: I have been thinking about raiding this week and actually came up with a good reason to have a private store. Passing out consumables. Instead of having to ask in vent and alliance chat over and over, set up a private store with foods, potions and scrolls. The small amount of money collected from the store can be used to buy more consumables for the legion.

Jared / Krael: The world of aion is an amazing place. I love the places, I cherish the experiences, and I truly admire the people who make this comminity what it is (most of them anyway). BUT the sight of a 4 foot asmodian cleric with 7 inch legs, 4foot arms, and a giant pink Afro twice the size of the rest of their body smashes my immersion with the wifflebat of unholy righteousness.

MAIL CALL

QforQ: Explains his name as Lori requested!

Osiris: A breakdown on wings in game.

Darakor: Ranger Tip and a mage saying FLOAHOA? A video of the jump shot / Ranger kiting is here.

Tom the MMO Trucker: After trying Aion, its exactly what the doctor ordered. Its an obvious jump in the MMO technology. So why when I tell my friends about this am I ridiculed so much? Even real life friends that also play WoW are seriously upset with me. – Listeners give us YOUR FEEDBACK! Why are WoW players so reluctant to try Aion?

Chris G: one One way to stop the gold spam is once you login to the game, type “/anon”. This sets your status to “Invisible” thus removing you from the search list.

Jason Feehan, Beatnik Turtle: Thanks for the note. We certainly appreciate the play! If there’s any other music you need, please don’t hesitate to ask. As you know, our music tackles everything from IT to pizza and all points in between  We’ll can get you high-quality WAV files and are happy to help out in anyway! – Check them out here!

BASIC TRAINING

Pinstar: The taunt you get as a gladiator (and a templar) is actually ranged. It doesn’t have a huge range, but a big enough one. You can use it to pull a mob since you lack other ranged abilities. Also, if you are grouping and wish to get the aggro and not have it stolen from you by a rogue crit, opening with the taunt will help keep you high on the mob’s threat list.

Lori: Loves the bank alt and wants you to roll one too!
