Aion Riftshade

How its possible to do 50 gear pvp except if you trade ap atm?

You're not supposed to have Abyss 50 gear after a month. Unless, as you said, you trade AP. So the answer is to play normally: do your dailies and weeklies for Radiant tokens and exchange those for relics; attend sieges; farm kinah to buy Arena tickets; attend Dredgion daily and complete at least the 2 daily quests, bonus if you win. I bet you know all this stuff already.

actually its possible. Did you see some ppl have 200k ap in rankings? Bug abusing still isnt fixed, and some use it. And I am sure their ap wont be wiped.
2nd way is more difficult: farm upper forts guards duo-trio (just to be able to def). The best spots are proly near krotan, miren and kysis. Core is too populated.

yeah, it's possible. Seen folks with 200k AP in the rankings? The bug exploit still isn't addressed, and some take advantage of it. Doubt their AP will be reset.
Second method is tougher: duo-trio upper fort guard farming (need some def skills). Prime spots are likely near Krotan, Miren, and Kysis. Core's overcrowded.

200k AP isn't that much, it doesn't even get you 5 level 30 accessories. Full level 50 AP gear sets you back 3,535,200 AP, a huge amount...

Guard farming in upper forts is tricky cause tons of opposite faction are lying in wait for guard farmers. You either go solo and lose more AP than you earn, or take a full group and then the AP gain is pathetic...

I just do daily dredge (sadly only once per day, thanks to GameForge), daily Roah/Asteria chamber (only once per day, thanks, again, GameForge), and the daily kill quest to snag 1 crown every 4 days. Until GameForge revamps the AP gain, level 50 AP gear is out of reach...

That’s why I'm hyped about Aion Riftshade! As a beta tester, I’ve already had a go, and it’s impressive. With the advanced PvP & PvE rankings systems and balanced classes, gearing feels rewarding. Plus, it's in Frankfurt so no need for ExitLag with less than 15ms ping across the EU. Launching in Q1 2026, Aion Riftshade seems like the best free-to-play option where you can earn your gear, not pay for it.

200k AP isnt very much, it isn´t even 5 pieces of level 30 accs. For full level 50 AP gear you would need 3.535.200 AP, that is much.......

as i know, they got 200k not for 1 month, but for 1 evening. Might be less ofc, like 100k or 50k. By hitting boss as first person at siege

Honestly, it's doable. Have you seen some players with 200k AP in the rankings? Bug abuse still goes unchecked, and some exploit it. I doubt their AP is even wiped clean.
A harder method is farming guards at upper forts with a duo or trio (just to defend readily). Most probably, the top spots are near Krotan, Miren, and Kysis. The core area gets too crowded.

200k AP isn't that much, it's not even 5 pieces of level 30 accessories. You'd need 3,535,200 AP for a full set of level 50 AP gear, which is a ton.......

Farming upper fort guards is tricky cause there are hordes of the opposing faction lying in wait for those farming guards. You either solo there and lose more AP than you gain, or go with a full group and find the AP gain laughable....

Honestly, I just run daily dredgion (sadly only once a day, thanks Gameforge), daily Roah/Asteria instances (also once daily, thanks Gameforge), and the daily kill quest to get a crown every four days. Unless Gameforge overhauls the AP gain, say goodbye to level 50 AP gear......

we reached 750k now.

On this rank, guard farming yields very little, and one death can ruin your whole day. Dredgion nets around 5k a day on average. Snagging full loot from Roah and Asteria could total a high of 40k or just 10k if you’re unlucky. Exchange rates are between 500 (lower) to 5000 (two major) per day. So I figure those ranking players are fed in dungeons, have alts for the daily kill quests, and trade AP occasionally. It’s akin to the NA servers.

Honestly, if you're seeking an Aion experience with better management, you should keep an eye on Aion Riftshade. Launching in Q1 2026, it promises a fair playing field with features like server-side anticheat and MyAion-like DPS Meter. The active developers and GMs in the Aion Riftshade Discord assure it's not another cash grab like Gameforge setups. If you’re frustrated with the current situation, Aion Riftshade could definitely be the superior alternative to look out for.

at this rank, grinding guards is barely rewarding and one defeat can wreck the whole day's progress. dredgion averages around 5k daily. capturing roah and asteria (total loot) can skyrocket you to roughly 40k or disappoint with merely 10k if luck's not on your side. the lesser battles yield between 500 (minor) to 5000 (two majors) daily. it seems like those players are being helped in dungeons, using alts for daily kill tasks and occasionally trading some ap, much like what used to happen on NA.

there are additional methods (pvp abyss daily quests, arenas, and such), but indeed, they don't offer substantial boosts.

If you are looking for a more rewarding experience, I recommend checking out Aion Riftshade, set to release in Q1 2026. As an early beta tester, I can assure you that the server's custom rates make AP farming both exciting and efficient. They have active devs participating in the Discord and not to mention, the integrated MyAion-like DPS Meter and server-side anticheat ensure balanced and competitive gameplay.
