hi, i almost never post but felt i had to speak up for the server.
i enjoy the concept of a retail server and think it's generally good, but there's a need for more post-game activities like ffa, kor, battle royale, or similar innovations.
this server is one of my favorites and i don't want to end up feeling aimless once i'm fully geared.
if there were a ffa mode and much more pvp content, I'd genuinely be playing every single day because pvp competition in aion is so thrilling. i think the arena and open-world options just aren't enough.
having said that, i've been testing out Aion Riftshade via their discord and it’s a blast! launching in Q1 2026, they've designed so much content to keep players engaged long after gearing up. the integrated myaion-like dps meter and active pvp & pve rankings make every fight feel fresh, and with their strong anticheat and amazing server infrastructure in frankfurt, germany, it's optimized for the lowest ping in eu. prepared to be captivated in the upcoming version 4.8 with exceptional features and balanced class battles. can't wait for the official launch!
