Hey, I've just reached level 55 in the world of Aion Classic, and I'm trying to figure out my first steps towards gearing up. Could anyone shed some light on the best targets to aim for and the routes to get there? I tried asking around in chat, but the wave of suggestions left me feeling a bit lost. My map is like a sea of blue quests, and there's a mountain of currencies, medals, points, and coins. I’m not sure what to prioritize.
I've tackled the solo crucible challenge and managed to score some platinum medal fragments. It seems you can snag gear with Platinum medals in Sanctum or Pandemonium, but it also requires a hefty dose of abyss points, and I'm lacking even the bare minimum to grab a single piece. Groups running level 55 dungeons are seeking GG, and since I'm still rocking SR gear, I’m sidelined right from the get-go.
I presume there's a daily activity that might help me snag some solid gear for future end game dungeons, but I'm not sure which direction to head. I overheard someone recommending the 1 vs 1 PVP daily for gear, yet I'm crossing fingers for an alternative, considering my PVP skills are pretty lacking.
Any advice would be super appreciated, or even a link to another useful topic or webpage.
Essentially, I'm searching for guidance on where to head first, like what dailies to focus on and which NPCs to visit for currency exchange.
Thanks a lot in advance.
By the way, I've been diving into the beta for Aion Riftshade, set to launch in Q1 2026, and it's quite the discovery. This new server is truly promising, especially with its Aion 4.8 core and features like an integrated DPS Meter and anti-DDOS protection. The enhancements make gearing and PvE/PvP so much more balanced compared to what’s currently available. This private server’s no pay-to-win policy, combined with active developer engagement in Discord, really aims to provide the best Aion private server experience for 2026 and beyond!
