The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide

Introduction

No need to worry about Mana, just wait for your Special Moves to recharge!

You want to FIGHT, not cast buffs or heals, worry about Line-Of-Sight, Mana, position, or any of those other "weakling" considerations? Be a Gladiator! All you have to do is fight, and kill before you get killed. GLORIOUS COMBAT, and HP is, for the most part, the only bar you have to worry about!

Choosing a Race Do you want to be an honorable warrior (Elyos) or a chaotic carnage combatant (Asmodian)? Sadly, there is no real GAMEPLAY difference between the two, unless you like to roleplay.

Role as a Gladiator Gladiator is the simplest Class in the game. You do damage and ONLY damage. Gladiators are arguably the best Class at soloing, with high DPS and high HP. You are the melee damage-dealer. Run up and cut things. This is arguably the most straightforward Class to play, no worries about "aggro management" or subtleties of any kind. Because your base-Class is Warrior, you CAN take more damage than anyone else except a Templar, so you're a great off-Tank, just make sure not to bite off more than you can chew!

Positives and Negatives

more "realistic"...If you care about realism in a game about flying warriors? You can do FANTASTIC damage to ONE enemy, or impressive damage to multiple smaller enemies. You are amazing in PVE against NORMAL monsters! Since the game ONLY rewards KILLS, not TAKING damage, you'll ALWAYS be needed on a team!

- The Good - The Bad - Differences Between Elyos and Asmodian

You have the second highest HP pool in the game, second only to Templars, your Defense-oriented brethren!

The Good

The Bad

The GOOD news is, you're Rough, Tuff, and Buff. You can do very good damage, and do it consistently! More importantly, you can TAKE the return fire for a little while! You have a choice between Sword&Shield, Dual Swords, and Polearm. You start "Dual Wielding" as early as Level 3, but your offhand "weapon" is your FIST, and does damage that could be politely described as "cute"! HOWEVER, the higher Level you get, the more often you'll USE that offhand!

Your simplicity is matched by a lack of versatility: You are a MELEE fighter, and ONLY a MELEE fighter. Enemies with Spells or range capabilities at all, can pick you off before you can hit them at ALL, or at least do you some severe damage! As I said earlier, you'll slog through normal monsters, BUT you cannot handle Bosses as well as a Templar or Assassin can. Still, DPS=kills, so you'll always be needed for parties!

Your character is even smart enough to close the distance before trying to attack when you just press the button! No more, "You are out of range"! In a related note, Polearms have a longer range than other weapons in this game, which makes it

You are offense, not defense, and GLADIATORS CANNOT SELF-HEAL! Pack lots of Bandages and/or "Life Potions"!

-7© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide You have no real crowd-control, except that SOME of your Special Moves have a CHANCE for knockdown, which is unreliable at best. More importantly, the only way you can disrupt enemy Special Moves is by either HOPING your hits interrupt them, or else save your OWN Special Moves just to interrupt theirs, which will REALLY interfere with YOUR DPS! And DPS is all a Gladiator IS, really!

I have noticed a lot more people play as Asmodians than Elyos. When asked the reasons, they were almost uniformly: -Black Wings are "cooler" than white wings -The comic and Collector's Edition creates a ton of bias against Elyos; never understood why they didn't make it both sides. Reminds me of World of Warcraft where a majority of players believed the Horde was the "Evil" faction, due to canon from the RTS's (when in fact, the Alliance are a bit more elitist than the Horde, and in WOW, the Horde are downright Noble Savages!) -Claws are "cool" -Red eyes GLOW when in combat -Dark skin is "cool"

You have NO REAL RANGED ATTACKS! You cannot pull! If you see a group of multiple AGGRO monsters, make sure you can take'em all before attacking--or find a teammate with range attacks...

So basically, it's the Dark Angel/Underdog mythos they're going for. I preferred Pandemonium to Sanctum, the Broker and crafting guilds being right next to each other, and I can't fall off Pandemonium like I did 20 times in Sanctum!

Differences Between Elyos and Asmodian

I preferred Altgard over Verteron, because Kralls are super gay. Only advantage Verteron has is that its a lot easier to skill up gathering since everything is tightly-packed and in order, while many things are spread out in Altgard and need to hunt around/backtrack. The solo Quests are easier in Verteron, making it easier to Level up until you need to fight Bosses, but the group quests are by far easier for

Elyos starts in a verdant forest and kill animals. Their armor is bright and shiny. Asmodian starts in a desert wasteland. Their armor is dark and foreboding. It's all cosmetic differences, really. Whichever side you choose to work for, you will kick ass, and eventually, kick the asses of the other side's warriors as well!

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide

Combat Strategy Just charge into battle! If there is a Templar, let HIM charge first, but still, use your forward momentum to boost your first attack or 2. AION'S Positional System: Charging ahead increases attack and lowers Defense temporarily, pulling back does exactly the opposite. The running your char does AUTOMATICALLY when you target an enemy and hit an attack button DOES count for that Positional System! Use your Special Moves, ESPECIALLY Chain Moves! If you use a successful Chain, you can turn a losing battle around, or turn a close battle into an easy win--Plus, Chain moves look cool! to Rest (Default button comma) between battles to regain your HP. WARRIORS/GLADIATORS CANNOT SELF-HEAL! Bandages and Life Potions are a lifesaver--literally!

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide

Gladiator characteristic

Available Weapons

Gladiators are just that: Fighting for power and glory. No subtlety, you don't have to care about getting behind the enemy, or scanning for weaknesses, no casting Spells or heals, just run in and kill!

Currently the most popular weapon for Gladiators is the Polearm, due to highest damage and longer reach! Reach out and crush someone that THINKS they're out of melee range!

Available Armor Basic Attributes Warrior Base Stats Strength: 110

Warriors equip Chainmail Armor before Specialization, after which they switch to plate Armor. Shields in Aion do not add to Defense STATS, but are used instead for Shield blocks (% based) and Shield Skills.

Constitution: 110 Agility: 100

Enchantment Stones

Accuracy: 100 Intelligence: 90 Spirit: 90

With special tools from the General Stores, you can break down MOST weapons and Armors into Enchantment Stones. Sometimes, you get one in the wild, or from a Quest. No matter what, the operation of them is the same: Use one, then click on the Armor or weapon to be improved. - If successful, it ADDS one to the Enchantment Level of the item.

cliff chasing an enemy, and conversely, you can't jump most cliffs, so you'll have to find a way up to your enemy if they're sniping you from On High!)

- If the Level of the Enchantment Stone is less than the Level of the item to be Enchanted, it will ALWAYS fail!

Class Features The Gladiator Class, in case I was too subtle about it before, brings raw muscle, and plenty of it. Noone beats a Gladiator for SUSTAINED DPS. Assassins may have higher BURST damage, but a lot of their Skills require you to be behind the enemy, while only a few Gladiator Skills care about the enemy position, and even then, it's whether the enemy is knocked down or not. I repeat, it cares about the ENEMY'S position, not your position in relation to the enemy! Much simpler that way. Since you are going toe-to-toe, you don't have to worry about distance or Line-Of-Sight to your enemy, as your character will make a beeline for your target upon tapping an attack button! You don't have to worry about whether your enemy is above or below you, unless a cliff makes them functionally inaccessible to you. (DO NOT jump off a

Leveling

Levels 1-10

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR BOTH SIDES: I put this in the actual walkthrough below, but I think I was too subtle about it. If you are Level 9 already, do the Ascension ASAP. You can't rise above Level 9, no matter how much you kill, or how many Quests you do, the game will keep you one point below Levelling to 10. so it'll all be wasted!

Elyos

- Levels 1-10 - Levels 10-20 - Levels 20-30 - Levels 30-40 - Levels 40-50

Prologue You start out Dazed&Confused after the intro. This is the first game I've played where the intro is PART OF THE GAME, rather than just showing off the graphics. Apparently, the battle you just witnessed was an hallucination on your character's part. Your buddy is nearby, worried about you, and covering for your apparent fainting spell and hallucination. Talking to him IS the Prologue Quest, and arguably the easiest Quest in any game: Watching the intro completed it! You can just run around and kill monsters, or you can start on the Quests. Oddly, there are two different sets of Quests, "Campaign Quests" and normal Quests. There is no difference from the PLAYER perspective, but Campaign Quests have better rewards, and GOLD icons over the NPCs' heads, rather than the azure one ones of the normal Quests! Sleeping on the Job Your buddy sends you to Captain Elpas. Apparently, you're part of a mercenary unit, sent to this backwater to regain control and maintain the peace. Kerubar Hunt You start out with a fairly standard "Kill the Rampaging Striped Kerubs" Quest, but

-13© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Something Must've Stirred Them Up(TM) No points for originality, but a great intro to fighting, and a REASON to fight, if you haven't started already. Kerubs are this game's Goblins, the easiest enemies, that look like an unfortunate crossbreed between cavemen and hamsters. Kill them and report back to your Captain. Grain Thieves Not surprisingly, the townsfolk have come up with a reason NOT to pay: They want back the grain the Kerubs stole! For hamster-cavemen, they're surprisingly intelligent, stealing the whole sacks of grain, rather then chewing them open and eating them on the spot! To the northwest, there are 3 mud igloos with an NPC soldier in between them. There are some tougher versions of Kerubs "Kerub Fighters" popping out of the igloos at random intervals, but your goal is to pick up the burlap sacks. The NPC will "handle" the Kerub Fighters, BUT if you want to, you can help. The good news is, the Kerub Fighters will attack the NPC instead of you, AND you'll get essentially "free" EXP based on the proportions of damage YOU do vs. the damage HE causes! BUT, since you are counted as "killstealing" FROM AN NPC, you will get no loot nor money from the kills, just EXP!

Captain Elpas is pleased, and sends you to report to the woman who hired your band of mercenaries. Polinas is in Akarios Village, the town to the north. Just follow the dirt path. While you're in the Village, pick up the other Quests. Look for the big V's over the NPCs' heads, whether azure or gold. Since you should only be Level 2 yet, the only other Quests you can pick up in town is "Snuffler Headache" and "Collecting Aria" Snuffler Headache Snufflers--Pigs--have been tearing up the farm, so they want you to snuff the Snufflers. Good thing you're such an amazing Gladiator, huh? Kill'em fast! Collecting Aria If you haven't been collecting them all along, this will introduce you to the Gathering system in this game. Look for wheat-like weeds with a psychidelic pink color and bulbous roots, and double-click them. Wait for it to finish...And wait for it to respawn, since you'll be competing with other players, ALSO farming Aria, whether for the Quest or for EXP/money. Run back and turn THOSE Quests in to hit Level 3, and get MORE Quests available! A New Skill

Report to Polina

-14© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide The GAME ITSELF assigns you this Quest upon hitting Level 3. Find a Trainer, and talk to him to complete the Quest. He tells you to buy Skill Books when you Level up, so you can USE cool new moves and attacks! Take him up on it, and buy Robust Blow. Robust Blow is your first Chain Attack, when your Ferocious Blow lands, you have 3 seconds to play Robust Blow in rapid succession. Robust Blow--and all Chain Attacks--will NOT show up on your Power Bar, UNTIL you use the one directly previous in the Chain, at which point, it will replace its predecessor. Hit the same button repeatedly to run the full Chain! Helping Kales A farmer named Kales wants you to take a sack of grain to turn into edible food via Uno, the Village Cook. A simple FedEx Quest. Uno's Ingredients While you're there, Uno has something HE wants you to do too! Kill some mutated storks called Airon, and bring back their meat--for a cooking-contest, of course! Hey, you're a Gladiator, killing's just what you do! While killing the Airon--or the Brax (Big, buffalo-like monsters), you may come across an Axe Handle. Take it, and right-click it to start a "secret" Quest!

The Lost Axe Take the Axe Handle back to Namus, who is in the mountain- to the northeast. He'll thank you and give you a bit of money and EXP! The Kerub Threat A lone Mercenary named Muranes at the crossroads between Ciona Lake and Akarios Village says they're under attack by Kerubs again. These Kerubs are called Small Horn Kerubs, and they're not much harder than the Kerubs you beat in "Kerubar Hunt" (See above) Kerubs are Humanoid Monsters, and therefore, very profitable to kill, even if you didn't have a Quest to kill them! (That's a hint: They carry raw MONEY, not junk you have to sell, although you should do both!) When you report back, she tells you that the Kerubs are stepping up their game, and now you must kill 5 Big Foot Kerubs, and bring back their fangs as proof (Due to lower than 100% droprate, you may have to kill MORE than just 5, but again, it's Killing for Fun And Profit!(TM)) Big Foot Kerubs only have more HP than the Small Horn version, so they should still be Easy Slice--literally! Oddly, for all your (and the other players') massacring of these things, they're STILL not aggro, you can kill them one at a time at your leisure. Report back to her, and she'll be pleased, telling you to visit Captain Kalion back in Akarios Village for your reward.

-15© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide In addition to the "normal" EXP and money, this time, you get new shoes! Choose the Chainmail ones, and accept. Abandoned Goods The Merchants here look like weasels for good reason: This one wants you to "salvage" some wine--secretly--from the farm that's still being ravaged by Kerubs. The wine is in bottles, which are hidden in barrels. Just like the earlier burlap sacks in the "Grain Thieves" Quest, essentially! You'll now be Level 4, and MORE Quests will open up! To Fish In Peace While on the lake, you'll meet an NPC named Feira. She is upset that the monsters are scaring away the fish. Five Brax (The buffalo monsters), and five Slinks (Two-tailed lizards). Gladiators are literally MADE for killing, so go to it! A Book for Namus Namus is more than a mere lumberjack, he fancies himself quite the scholar. He wants a new book. This is a simple FedEx Quest, and easy enough to do for him. Request of the Elim Halfway between Ciona Lake and Daminu Forest, you'll find Ampeis. He has a "request" for you. He wants you

to...Go talk to Forest Protector Noah. Forest Protector Noah is the humanoid tree (Treant or Ent, whichever you want to call them) next to Namus. He gives you a Magic Flute, and tells you to wake up two OTHER walking trees! The first sleeping ugly is due south of the Daminu Forest, along the southern wall. Just doubleclick on the sleeping brute to play the flute and wake it with a toot! The second one is a short distance northwest. Luckily, nothing around here is aggro yet! Then you go back to Forest Protector Noah, and give him back the Magic Flute. After a short cutscene, showing you "The Forest's Pain", he'll ask you to kill some Dukakis, and bring back their Kobold axes as proof. (Were Dukakis called Kobolds in an earlier Build of this game? The name difference is jarring/confusing...) This is a dangerous Kill Quest, since Dukakis ARE Aggro. They'll attack you on sight, assuming (correctly) that you're there to stop their logging operation! Make sure you fully heal between fights! Still, Dukakis are Humanoid Monsters, and even MORE profitable than Kerubs, so it's sort of a Risk-Reward calculation, which ones you want to kill to farm up money/EXP. Once you have their Kobold Axes (No, you can't wield them), bring them back to Forest Protector Noah, who will send you to Daminu. Daminu is a large and ancient Treant, who will show you a little of your past in a cutscene, and

-16© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide once you're done with that, he'll send you back to Captain Kallion in Akarios Village. In addition to your usual money and EXP reward, you get to choose a WEAPON! Choose the Sword, and hit Accept. You'll also get a new Title, "Tree Hugger"! Insomnia Medicine Namus is suffering insomnia, with all the monsters, and impending doom and so on. He needs you to cut down some Sylphen (Mutant dragonflies, with an EXTRA quartet of wings on the tail), so he can make a cure for himself. The killing part is easy as always, but once he makes the cure, he doesn't like the taste, so he asks you to take it to Uno instead, to disguise the taste. Have Uno mix it with the Fruit Juice when he asks, so that the taste can be better disguised, rather than the soup. Then take the spiked "juice" to Namus, so he can get some sleep. Mushroom Thief While traversing the mountain , you'll come across an ambitious mercenary called Ampeis, who of course, has HIS own side-business! He's been collecting and selling mushrooms, but needs you to eliminate the competition. Luckily, the "competition" he speaks of are pigs--literally! BellePigs, to be

precise. You're a killing machine, so go butcher the pigs, and report back. He'll give you some...ROASTED PIG as a reward. It's more than it sounds, as eating it boosts your Physical Attack! No Entry This is a big, long Quest that you won't be able to FINISH until Level 9 or even solid 10, due to the difficult monsters, but you GET it now. How's that for unreasonable expectations? Talk to Mercenary Captain Kalion to receive this Quest. Visit Malponeh's Campsite and talk to Oz. Talk to Pernos near the Agaric Spore Road. Up to about here, you can do now, but the later parts, you should wait on. Discuss the "situation" with Poa near the Timolia Mine. Find and talk to Ino within the Timolia Mine. He's been jailed by the enemies. You don't even get to spring him (Primarily because if you did, other players couldn't get this Quest...Another example of NPCs glued to their spot!) This is where the "Hard enemies" part comes in, the Dukakis in THIS area are Level 9 and up, AND Aggro to boot! Destroy the 3 Power Generators (Green, Blue, Purple) and then the Abyss Gate itself. The Generators are guarded by more Dukaki than I've ever seen in one place, make sure to have teammates, or go when

-17© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide there are other players there. Letting them killsteal you will save your life! Even then, pack PLENTY of Potions and Bandages! By Level 9 or 10, you can get better Potions off enemy corpses than the stores here will sell you. Report your success to Mercenary Captain Kalion. You'll get your choice between three Chest Armors, pick the Chainmail one! You'll get a short cutscene where you are praised as the Protector of Poeta--AND you get a Title for it to boot! After doing those first 3 Quests, and getting as far as you can on the fourth, you'll hit Level 5, which entitles you to "The Elim's Message" Level 5 opens up 2 new Skills, Weakening Severe Blow, and Boost HP. Weakening Severe Blow should be your new opener, as it lowers enemy Physical Resistance for 5 seconds, so you can hit with your Ferocious Blow and Robust Blow. More importantly, it lowers the ENEMY'S Physical Resistance, so that your whole PARTY gets bonus damage--at least the PHYSICAL attackers...Mages will just have to lump it! Boost HP is a ive boost not only to MaxHP, but more importantly, to HP Regeneration! You'll have MORE Health, and Regen quicker between fights. Since it is IVE and always on, get it, it's a must-have for survival as a Warrior, and later as a

Gladiator! The Elim's Message Forest Protector Noah will ask you to on a message, but the message is incomprehensible--and for these people, that's saying something! So the game will "gently suggest" you go to Feira, a Priestess at Cliona Lake (Where you were hunting the Airon earlier) She, in turn, will tell you to talk to the Priest in Akarios Village. He will take the message to his superiors, and you get your reward! Now you have to wait until Level 6 to get any more Quests...You should be nearly there just from the long FedEx Quest from before. Once you hit Level 6, a LOT of new Quests open up! Light Up The Night Pranoa wants a night-light--and wants YOU to get it for him! Kill Adult Sparkies (The mutant fireflies) in the mountain , and collect Luciferin, the substance that makes them glow. As far as damage they inflict on you, Sparkies are arguably the EASIEST enemies, so this should be even easier than your previous kill-Quests! After collecting your reward, go back to Akarion Village. The Priest in the big building in the center of town, wants your help for... Polinia's Ointment Melponeh is a poor Historian in a distant Campsite. He's been bitten by Worgs, the

-18© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide wound got infected, and he may die without this ointment! You are the chosen...chosen messenger-boy, at least. But it's a fairly easy Quest, IF you can avoid the monsters along the way. This area is the first place you'll encounter AGGRO monsters--not just Social, these ones actually attack WITHOUT provocation! Luckily, they're highlighted as red dots on your minimap/radar in the corner. (I didn't know they had radar in medieval times, let alone IFF systems!) You have to look out for Worgs and Dukakis. Worgs are a nasty crossbreed of sharks&wolves, while Dukakis LOOK like Kerubs, but they carry actual weapons! Afterward, head back toward the , and Lonian will have a new job for you! A Taste of Namus's Medicine Namus had agreed to make medicine for Lonian, but hasn't gotten around to it. So Lonian needs you to go to Namus and remind him. Once you reach Namus, he'll be upset about the ungrateful Lonian, but he'll make SOMETHING for him--not the promised medicine, but something nasty-tasting enough to BE medicine! Take it back to Lonian. Lonian will take one swig, and decide he doesn't NEED the medicine after all! But he'll still pay YOU, and that's the important part, after all, isn't it? Thinning out the Worgs

Sometimes this Quest is available BEFORE Namus's Medicine, but whether it is or not, it's better to have more experience, more money, and thus more Life Potions and Bandages in your belt, before trying this one. Tula, the de facto leader of Melponeh's campsite, says they're being raided by Worgs, and they want you to kill a few off. This is probably going to be your hardest kill-Quest yet, since you have to try to kill only ONE at a time, and the others, if they see you, WILL attack...Also, try to AVOID Dukakis! Pernos's Robe Mune--the Armor Dealer in Akarios Village--has a job for you! She wants you to get her some wool, from Apexes. Apexes are the goat-like monsters in the mountain you've been up and down several times now. The catch is, Apexes are your first Social Monsters. If you attack one, any nearby will the fight. Be VERY careful not to bite off more than you can chew here! You still don't have your AOE attacks! When you return, she gives you a partial reward, but the second part of the Quest is MUCH harder. You don't get it until Level 7 Ancient Cube Sounds like the Horadric Cube, doesn't it? Baevrunerk, the other weasel shopkeeper in Akarios Village, has a job for you to find the Cube he lost. This Cube is embedded in a pile of junk in the

I would wait on this Quest too, as Dukakis are aggro, and there are a lot of them milling about, and some even on "patrol" for annoying players--like you! Once you get it, bring him the Cube for some money, some EXP, and SUPPOSEDLY a discount on expanding YOUR Cube (Gives you another row of inventory slots. Worth it in the long-term.) I cannot confirm the latter, since I had already bought the expansion at full price.

until you're Level 9 if solo, but if you have reliable teammates, you can take him on earlier... An Apex Horn should be a fairly easy kill for you, since you already killed a number of them just to MAKE the Robe in the first place...BUT the reward will be commesurately less! You'll get 2 "Secret Elixir of Life". Wow...More healing potions! A Brax Hoof is the easiest task, but also the worst reward, because by now, Braxes should be target-practice for you! HOWEVER, because it is so low quality, Perno will be "offended" AGAIN, and give you crap rewards as a retaliation. Illegal Logging

Delivering Perno's Robe Mune, of all people, needs your help again (See Pernos's Robe Quest, above.) She offended Pernos, and now she needs you to get an Ornament to mollify him! You have your choice of 3 Ornaments. Scar's Fang, an Apex Horn, or Brax Hoof (The buffalo monsters, ?). Like Final Fantasy 7, the better ingredient you fetch, the better reward you get! I chose to get Scar's Fang, the hardest of them. Scar is a Boss Worg. Worgs themselves are nasty beasts, aggressive, PLUS they look and act like the most dangerous parts of a wolf and shark put together, but Scar is bigger, tougher, meaner, and has a DOT Special to use on you. Rage is a MUST-HAVE, to shield yourself from his direct attacks, so you can SURVIVE his DOT! I recommend not tackling him

Oz needs a strong killing arm to stop the Dukaki Kobolds from ruining the forest. So he sends you first to...The Kabarah Strip Mine! Kill any 12 Dukakis, then report your success back to Oz Find and kill 3 Tursin Outlaws. (The bigger, more musclebound enemies!) Report back to Oz, get paid, and your choice of Boots! Since you're a Warrior, pick the Chain Boots! Nymph's Gown If you kill enough in this area, you'll find a Diary. Read it. It's Namus's! He talks about this Nymph he sees bathing in the pool. Take the Diary to Namus. He'll nervously ask if you read it. Answer truthfully (I.e., "Yes, I read it.") He'll say that the only way to get that nymph's

-20© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide attention is to steal her gown, and prevent her return to heaven. (This is derived from Japanese "Tenno" Mythology) The pool in question is straight north of Damina Forest. Hide behind the big tree and wait for full nightfall. The Nymph will suddenly materialize, and her clothes will materialize on the rock in front of the pool. Grab the gown and RUN AWAY! She can oneshot you, and will, if you don't get out of range... Sadly, she's NOT naked in the pool! Apparently, people bathe with their clothes on? Bring the gown to Namus, and he'll pay you for it--literally! "Easy" money, if you discount the chance of an instant death! Neutralization Tula wants to find out just WHAT the Kobolds are refining in their Cauldron. So she sends YOU to collect a sample! The Cauldron in question is at the r in "Strip" of Kabarah Strip Mine. Once you got a sample, bring it to Pernos, the haughty wizard from Pernos's Robe. He'll send you to collect 3 Spores from Spore Shade Fungus (The big, aggro mushrooms that seem to be wearing a fishing net as a cape!) Since this is a LOOT task, not a KILL task, you'll probably need to kill more than 3. Bring the Spores back to Pernos. BE

CAREFUL! The Spore Shade Fungi can turn YOU into a mushroom temporarily! Pernos will mix you up a vial to sabotage their refining process. Run back to the Cauldron and dump it in. (Personally, I wondered why you couldn't just knock over the Cauldron, but that's NOT how this game works!) Run back to Tula and tell her what happened. You'll get paid, plus Leg Armor of your choice. Choose the Chain Greaves, because you're a Warrior! Oz's Prayer Beads Oz lost his marbles--or at least his Prayer Beads, which LOOK like marbles! Sparkies carried them away! So you have to kill the Sparkies up and down the road between Melponeh's Campsite and Agaric Spore Road, until you collect 3 Prayer Beads. Marvel how much they look like marbles, and then hand them back to Oz. He'll pay you for your trouble--and besides, you got to kill things! [Collection] Tula's Music Box Tula needs Iron to fix her Music Box. What does that have to do with you? She wants YOU to get the Iron Ore for her! Iron Ore is up in the Kabarah Strip Mine. You need to harvest 7 Iron Ores, and bring them back to Tula. Tula can't afford to pay you, but she gives you a good EXP bonus, AND your choice of weapons, Sword or Mace. Doesn't matter which one you choose, they're both One-Handed, so

-21© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide unless you're using the Tanking Build, you'll just get one of those and sell it. Mushroom Research Melponeh needs some Mushrooms too--To RESEARCH, rather than to mix a potion. Kill as many Fearless Fungys (Non-aggro little baby Mushrooms that bounce around and look like escapees from Fantasia or Super Mario) as necessary to collect 5 Mushroom Hearts. It'll be more than 5. Bring the Hearts back to Melponeh to get paid. Where's Tutty? Pernos lost his prize pet pig. He suspects it ran into the Kabarah Strip Mine. He wants YOU to get it. Tutty, sadly, is turning slowly on a spit. The spit is north of the K in Kabarah on your map. Kill all the guards, then doubleclick the spit to watch a short cutscene, iring the cooking process, I guess? Return to Pernos with the bad news. He STILL pays you, and gives you 2 Mana Potions to boot! I recommend trading the Mana Potions to another player to get some more Life Potions! Avenging Tutty (Requires Where's Tutty?) Pernos is mad, and you'd think a mad wizard would be one of the most dangerous entities in the gameworld. He IS, but wants YOU to be the instrument of his vengeance, rather than simply

casting some magical unpleasantness on them! Head to the middle of Kabarah Strip Mine, and kill Dukaki Brawlers and Dukaki Vigilantes until you collect 5 of their spoons as "proof" (Again, more than 5 total) Bring'em back to Pernos, and you'll get paid, PLUS 2 Life Potions, PLUS the Title Animal Lover! Suspicious Ore This is more dangerous, as it takes place in the Timolia Mines, and the start of the Krall--which will be your most hated enemy for the next 12 Levels--have their enforcers there. Poa is a mercenary near the entry of Timolia Mine, and wants you to investigate some strange Ore around here. Grab 6 crates of Suspicious Ore and bring it back to Poa to get paid. (You should be getting close to 10 now, so you might not want to turn it in until you finish Ascension) Scouting Timolia Mine Poa wants you to get in gear--or at least, COLLECT gears! Kill Tursin Loudmouths, Dukaki Patrols, and Dukaki Thugs. SOME of them will carry Engine Parts (Gears) for you. Collect 5 and give them to Poa. He'll give you the Sentinel Hat, and a burst of EXP. (You should be getting close to 10 now, so you might not want to turn it in until you finish Ascension) Ascension

-22© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide This is a long one, but it's worth it! Once you finish this one, you can hit Level 10, rather than staying Level 9 and one point shy of 10! First converse with Pernos. He'll need some water from Cliona Lake. YOU get to go get it. Stand in the island in the center, then doubleclick the vial in your inventory to fill it with Cliona Lake Water (The first Bottled Water?) Bring the water to Daminu and he'll drink it and drop a Magic Fruit. Bring the Fruit to Pernos. He'll send you to the Abyss in your mind. Walk up, talk to the Lieutenant, then jump off the half-bridge. After a wild, swooping, sweeping, tumbling flight, you'll land on a different floating island and get attacked by 4 enemies at once. Oddly, you don't get any new powers, despite being a legendary version of yourself. Trash your assailants, then you'll get attacked by a snake-creature called Orissa. Just as you start getting the upper hand, the game switched to a cutscene of Orissa bouncing you off every flat surface in the gameworld, and finally breaking you THROUGH the ground, where you wake up back in the "real" world. talk to Pernos about your wild experiences, and you get to choose your Class. Hopefully, you'll choose Gladiator, since this is the Gladiator Class Guide!

Turn in all your Quests, finish all your unfinished business, then talk to Pernos again. He'll teleport you to Sanctum, the Elyos City-In-The-Sky! Talk to Leah, then Jucleas, and watch your graduation ceremony cutscene. Meet with the Class Preceptor to pick a "Graduation Present" Choose either Spear of Prophecy or Greatsword of Oracle. You are now a full-fledged Daeva!

Levels 10-20 Even aboard Sanctum, there are Quests for a sharp-eyed person. Ring Imbued With Aether Perikles offers you a ring, or a Ring imbued with the power of Aether! Choose the Ring imbued with Aether. (If you choose the normal ring, it's not only useless, but doesn't even sell for much. Take THAT, greedy!) You have to talk to a laundry-list of people to get the ring fully imbued. "Let Our Powers Combine!" - Talk to Mikero. - Then Bellasia. - Meet up with Alcmene next. - Have a few words with Demodocos. - Finally Vatonia to finish the quest.

Daeva Ceremony

-23© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide You get the Ring of Aether, a fairly heft Magic Resist for a Level 10 item! Language Potion If you explore the stairs down just south of the Hall of Prospectors (The WEST stairs, at least), you'll discover it leads to a loading/unloading dock! There's a stereotypical scientist in front of a cage with an angry Krall inside. Be warned, hers is a long Quest, but worth it for story and an extra Title! Oddly, the quest begins with Fuschia, in the Library! She'll mention there's a Potion that can teach you Krall Language instantly! Kunberunerk "may know something about it". If you can catch Kunberunerk on the docks (He's a slippery little weasel--almost literally, as Shugo are the Weasel-people "race" in Aion!), he'll offer you a choice: - Pay 10K Gold (Quest ends, "easy" way out, if you don't think how much grinding that much money represents, and what ELSE you could do with that mony, especially buying expansions to your Cube!) - Argue that you don't have that much money. Once you choose either one, you can't go back and choose the other, so be careful! If you choose to haggle, he'll give it to you in exchange for a "simple" favor. He tells you to go ask Mapikerk

how the engines are coming. (You half-expect a Star Trek joke here, but the writers surprisingly stayed in-character!) Mapikerk says he needs Odium for the power generator, and sent ANOTHER Shugo, Gaphyrk, to go get it from Maniparas. Gaphyrk has disappeared! Maniparas says the last he saw, Gaphyrk was going into the mines to get Odium, and he never came back. If you can, sneak or cut a swath into the Mines, until you find him--he's literally a prisoner for love! He's fallen in love with a Dukaki--Oh, the shame! More relevantly, though, he no longer cares about the Odium, and gives it up, as well as telling off you and Mapikerk! Mapikerk doesn't appreciate the rudeness of the little ingrate, but at least sends you back to Kunberunerk and tells him to give you the Potion. Kunberunerk acts as if he's doing you a big favor by just GIVING you the Potion (A long messenger-boy Quest, not exactly GIVING, but at least less than 10K!) Talk to the Scientist, Marmeia, who will be OVERJOYED about you VOLUNTEERING to try the Potion. (There's an ironic twist for you!) She'll give you the Potion. Drink it to begin the second Quest in the same place! Ulaguru Speaks Once you finished Language Potion (Directly above), talk to Marmeia (the scientist) again, then talk to the Krall in

-24© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide the cage. The Potion will "tune in" and you'll be able to understand! Talk to Marmeia and she'll pay you, overjoyed that her invention WORKS! Material Necessary for a New Book Marmeia wants to write a new book about the cult of the Dukaki Kobolds. She needs you to take two of the Dukaki Amulets. They have an INCREDIBLY low droprate, so you'll have to slaughter half the Dukaki Mine (in Veteron)--repeatedly--to get them! Still, it's not all bad, as Dukakis are GREAT to farm for EXP and money. (And later, just money!) Bring back the 2 Amulets to her to get paid. Seed of Evil Xenophon is concerned about the increased activity of the Lopharist Revolutionaries in Verteron. Go down there and get a Crest from them--By Any Means Necessary! Bring the Crest back for your rewards.

not. An Axe For Namus If you were honest, Seirenia will have thought it was so romantic that someone would steal her clothes for love, and obligingly fall in love with him. (Apparently, BEFORE Sexual Harassment was invented, stalking is a form of love?) She commissioned an Axe for him from Anteros, but a family emergency prevents her from taking delivery personally, so she has YOU do it instead! Anteros is surprised that such a fine weapon is meant for a HUMAN! Bring Seirenia the Axe to get paid. Undelivered Armor Hyacinte ordered new Armor, but never got it. So she tasks YOU to find out what the hold-up is! (Typo Alert: The man you need to talk to is called Gaurinerk in one place, and Garunyerk in another. Gaurinerk is correct.) Talk to Gaurinerk, who will the buck to Nadaelo.

A Lingering Mystery

Honest Merchant

Seirenia complains that the last time she went to Poeta, someone stole her clothes! (Turns out that Nymph from A Nymph's Feathered Gown wasn't so supernatural after all! She sends you to go to Poeta and discover the identity of the thief. Talk to Namus and try to get him to fess up. Then go back to Seirenia, and either fess up to YOUR part in it or

Nadaelo reveals they've been sending him substandard parts and expecting him to make good Armor out of it--The horror! In order to PROVE the accusation, though, she wants YOU to bring in healthy versions of the materials. Hunt Sharp Horn StarCrabs and Swamp StarTurtles to obtain the materials for making armor, namely 6 StarCrab Carapaces and 5

-25© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide StarTurtle Shells, and bring them to Hyacinte. StarTurtles are slightly tougher, but only by dint of BEING better Armor. You will probably have to kill more than just 6/5 respectively, since this is a LOOT Quest, not a straight hunt. When you succeed, bring the "evidence" to Hyacinte, who will realize Nadaelo was telling the truth. In gratitude for Nadaelo's honesty, she agrees to contract straight through him from now on. You get your normal rewards, PLUS 3 Lesser Shock Alleviation Scrolls (Temporary shields that will take damage instead of you) Lobnite Hunt Kinesos says that Lobnites are disrupting the local scallop trade. He wants you to kill 10 of them to get him some breathing room to fish. You get the normal rewards, PLUS 3 Mana Potions when you win! Spiral Lobnites are fairly easy enemies, as far as THEIR damage output against you, but the shell makes them hard to kill. Polluted Fountainhead Adelia says that an abundance of animals are polluting the waters around Verteron Citadel. She wants you to kill 10 Brown Beak Airons (Stork-monsters; Tougher versions of your old "friends" in Ciona Lake.) and 10 Swamp Slinks (Two-tailed snake-monsters, also amped-up versions of the ones in Ciona

Lake.) to "restore balance" Primitive eco-activism, with a violent twist! When you win, she gives you 100 Lesser Power Shards in addition to your normal rewards. Power Shards are slotted just below your Helmet, and when activated with the B key, they add an extra zap to your attacks--literally--but each swing consumes one Power Shard, so 100 isn't as generous as it sounds! Guardian Tog If you walk around in the "safe" (As in nothing is aggro) zone just outside Verteron Citadel, you'll see a TOG! Before you rush heroically to kill it, talk to it! Its name is Gaione, and it was formerly one of the Citadel's guards. HOWEVER, he fell asleep at his post, and he was turned into a Tog. The only way he can get reprieve is if he catches 9,000 Mud PotCrabs. (That's right, the PotCrabs are over 9,000!) Being a Gladiator, you can easily "catch" them with extreme prejudice. Mud PotCrabs are the weakest monsters in this area, although they DO have a nasty "Special" that can really hurt you if you don't Block, Parry, or Interrupt it. Interruption is preferable, but requires a superhuman/supernatural sense of timing! If you beat these things as part of a party, they will get few to no shots off! When you win, you get 2 Life Potions in addition to the standard rewards. [Repeat] Gaione′s Request

-26© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Gaione (From Guardian Tog above) "hates" to ask your help again--but he does anyways. He wants you to catch MORE Mud Potcrabs! He only needs 9 this time. Easy kills, easy rewards, PLUS everytime you finish, he gives you 1 extra Life Potion! This Quest is repeatable up to 100 times! Decorative Weapons Ivis needs you to grab Crystals out of the icy water for him to make into weapons. This is an easy grab Quest, and you don't even HAVE to kill anything--but you should anyways, for EXP! Get this at the same time you get the other Quests in this area. Ancient Lobnite Fossil Spiros wants a Lobnite FOSSIL to study. This is a grab Quest, and only ONE thing to grab, rather than a number of'em, but it's still one of the harder ones to find. As you run around Verteron, you'll see what looks like "shelves" in the rock cliff. The Fossil is stuck to the WALL, not the shelves, and you're going to have to fly to get up there. Then stand on one of the shelves to recharge your wings, and grab the Fossil! Danger Overhead

combat, but , flight-time IS limited! You can usually kill 2 Spores per flight, then land on any horizontal surface to recharge your wings. After finishing, Kairon gives you some times that ironically, would've REALLY helped on this Quest! 4 Wind Potions keep you aloft longer once you get that message that you're almost out of flight-time, and Book of Flight: Boost Physical Attack lets you hit harder while FLYING, not while GLIDING! Killing Lepharist Revolutionaries Abolos says there are some thugs who are up to no good, started causing trouble in the neighborhood...Oh, wait...He wants you to kill some thugs that are stirring up trouble against the Government. In wartime, dissidents are the LAST thing you need, especially violent dissidents in an interdimensional war! Kill 4 Lepharist Revolutionaries and report back. You get your normal rewards, PLUS 3 Life Potions and 4 Mana Potions. I recommend trading the Mana Potions to a fellow player and getting more Life Potions. [Manastone] New Manastones for Old Pobina, the Manastone Remover, seeks three specific Manastones: - Manastone: HP +30

Kairon is worried that spores coming through the Portal will kill everyone. So he tasks YOU to slash them out of the sky. This is an excellent tutorial on aerial

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Bring them to her, she'll give you 300 EXP and 1 "better" Manastone. This is INFINITELY repeatable, but why? HP is good for Melee fighters. This is mostly for "free" EXP, since Manastones go for virtually nothing at the Vendors--but can be sold for SUBSTANTIAL money at the Broker (AION's version of Auction House) [Manastone] New Manastones for Old (II) Pobina, the Manastone Remover, seeks a DIFFERENT trio of Manastones: - Manastone: MP +30 - Manastone: Evasion +6 - Manastone: Parry +14 Bring them to her, she'll give you 300 EXP and 1 "better" Manastone. This is INFINITELY repeatable--and it's "OK", since these are "Magic Class" Manastones--but mostly for "free" EXP, since Manastones go for virtually nothing at the Vendors--but can be sold for SUBSTANTIAL money at the Broker (AION's version of Auction House) Odium In The Dukaki Settlement Leto of Tolbas Village is beside himself with crisis: The Dukaki are refining Odium to manipulate Aether! Oh no! Sounds like another excuse for you to kick ass and forget names. Kill 9

Dukaki Miners, then kill one of their pit bosses (They have varying names, but they're all cartoonishly overmuscled), and take his Striking Rod. Find the bell near the wooden palisade, and use it. The Overseer will appear. She's the biggest Dukaki in the game, but you still have to kill her. Once you kill her, she'll drop a jar of Odium Solvent. Look up the hill, and you'll see 3 "Cauldrons" chained down at a dangerous angle. Get in the center of all three, open your Inventory, and double-click the Solvent. Watch the cutscene of the results of your sabotage! Go back and talk to Leto, tell him crisis averted. He'll be so grateful, he'll give you a choice of Gloves as well as the normal rewards. Choose Plate Gloves. You are a WARRIOR, and Plate is the hallmark of a true Warrior, a walking tank! Frillneck Hunt Leto has another job for you. The Rake Claw Frillnecks are out of control and endangering the locals. Just in case you haven't seen them before, there's a cutscene that shows you the Frillnecks--the same acid-spitting lizards from Jurassic Park! You have to kill 7 of them. One thing: Dinosaurs HURT! That is all... Once you killed those, Leto says they have a bigger problem, both figuratively and literally. Leto assigns you to kill GIANT Rake Claw Frillnecks--and you have to kill TWELVE this time! In

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide addition to being bigger, AND hitting harder, AND having more HP, the Giant versions are a Level above their normal brethren! Once you kill THOSE, come back to Leto for your rewards. Leto throws in your choice of shoulderpads! Choose Plate Pauldrons.

Nola's Request Nola, the Scarecrow, is tired of these thugs infesting "The Master"'s farm. Kill a few for him. In fact, kill 15. He'll pay you, AND give you a new Title: Straw for Brains. Pumpkin Season

Head Frillneck Now that you've proven yourself against the Frillnecks, Leto wants you to go after the Big Boss of the Frillnecks. I advise you to bring friends, as the Boss won't go down easy! When you win, he gives you Harfuia's Earrings.

Nola wants you to harvest Pumpkins so they don't spoil. Harvest 7 Pumpkins and take them to Eradis in Tolbas Village. After some musing of why Belbua didn't deliver them in person, you'll get 2 Broiled Qooqoo in addition to your usual payment. Belbua′s Treasure

Loiterers Spiros thinks there are some strangers to the northwest of Verteron. Just find them and report back. Those are the Lepharist Revolutionaries, obviously. Your report is worth 4 Life Potions.

Nola says you have earned Belbua's Treasure. Seek out the shed along the seashore to the west, and there's a barrel behind it. Inside the barrel is Belbua's "Treasure": 2 Belbua Pumpkin Wine The Writing On The Wall

Abandoned Scarecrow Gano has heard of some strange goings-on at the old Belbua Farm. Find out the truth of the rumors of the Haunted Scarecrow. It turns out...it's true, the scarecrow CAN talk, and has a stereotypical old man voice! Wait on turning in this Quest, because the talking scarecrow identifies itself as Nola, and HE has some jobs for you too! Might as well do those first, rather than running back to Gano, and THEN coming back and doing Nola's bidding...

A dagger pinned a Letter to the wall of the house at Belbua's Farm. Take the Lepharist Revolutionaries' Letter to Spatalos at Verteron Citadel. [Collection] Collecting Kukuru Ondanius needs some Kukuru for a project. He only needs 4...Guess who gets to collect it for him? If you didn't Harvest Kukuru during the Nola Quests, you have to go back there, the Kukuru grows plentiful in Belbua's Pumpkin Fields! Old Man′s Letter

-29© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Manos wants you to deliver a letter to his son, Qydro. Another FedEx Quest. Easy money by now. Belbua′s Whereabouts AKA Belbua Is Missing Qydro, upon getting that letter from Old Man's Letter (Directly above), wants you to get a clue--literally. Find some clue as to where Belbua went. In order to accomplish this, you have to kill Lepharist Thieves until one of them drops the Diary. You have to READ the Diary to get the clue, then bring the Diary back to Qydro to get paid. A Mother′s Worry Perinens needs you to go to Gano and ask him to babysit her kids, as she's going to be busier than she thought. This is a messenger Quest, nothing physical to deliver. Easy money.

Kinesos wants you to take supplies to Abolos. A standard FedEx Quest. In addition to the normal rewards, you get 30 Lesser Odella Powder for your Herb Treatments. Odella Recipe Nemia wants you to bring some Odella to Eradis, the town cook, for him to make into soup for her. When you bring him the Odella, he says he needs some Verteron Pepper. Go to Verteron Citadel again, and buy Verteron Pepper from Drasia, the Verteron Cook, then bring it to Eradis. (Note: You can buy the Verteron Pepper ahead of time, to save travel-time.) Feeding Hianu Eradis needs you to deliver some Odella Soup to Hianu. Once you do, return to Eradis and get not only your payment, but 2 Odella Soup for yourself!

The Forest Outlaw

Source Of The Pollution

Ondanius is tired of the local Worgs threatening (and eating) travelers. Kill 9 Starving Worgs and 5 Violent Worgs (The latter name is quite redundant!). They have to be near the road, though, or they won't "count" for the Quest! The closer to Tolbas Village, the better, although there, the spawns get awfully lopsided... Supplies Committee

For

The

Vigilance

This Quest is activated when you reach Level 13. It's going to be another long chain one. Talk with Geolus, as the game "subtly" prompts you to in big yellow letters in the center of your screen. Find Lepios, and talk to him. He'll give you some Contaminated Water to bring to Geolus. Geolus will analyze it, but ask for a Rare Book, "Illustrated Guide to Rare Poisons". You'll have to go all the way back to the Library in Sanctum for that! Talk to Dimos in the Library, and he'll

-30© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide give you the book, after remarking how outdated it is. Bring the Book and the Contaminated Water Sample to Jumentis. He'll send you to his superior, Quintus. Turns out, this was caused by Elyos chem-weapon research gone horribly right/wrong, depending your perspective.(The plot by this time, is starting to sound like a bad episode of BLEACH!) Go to Hygea, the Priest Trainer, and get Yustiel's Tear. Yustiel will also buy any items you want to sell, AND you can buy Skill Books from the Warrior Trainer in the same room, if you haven't been doing so all along! Go back down to Verteron and talk to Geolus. He'll give you 2 special Antidotes, then send you off to fight BubbleGut (A mutated SUPER-Slime Boss, used to be called Deadly Poison Stacy--I am NOT making this up!) BubbleGut is in the Contaminated Swamp beyond the top of the falls. You must walk all the way around, or fly to Pilgrim's Respite, then go north into the swamp to find him. BubbleGut is a Boss mob (5 lights). He is slow and quite kite-able (Oh, wait, you're a Warrior, you can't kite!) but has a ton of Hit Points. Keep him in his element, the poison pool, to prevent him from casting an obnoxious number of Shields on himself and making himself pretty much invincible. USE THE ANTIDOTES when he stacks too much Poison on you. Bring some friends to

make this battle something like "fair"--or better yet, make it unfair in 'YOUR' favor! When BubbleGut "pops", there will be the Spirit of a Daeva hovering over the carcass. Speak to the Spirit, and get their Development Log. Go back to Verteron and talk to Spatalos. He'll offer you a choice of weapons, in addition to your normal fee. Choose the Sword, Gladiator! The Consequences Of Greed AKA Unwanted Dagger Beris bought one of those costume-jewelry weapons (Which you helped make earlier, see Decorative Weapons above), and now wants to return it. Take it to Ivis in Verteron Citadel, then bring the good news back to Beris! You get no EXP, but a good amount of money for this Good Deed. The Secret Of The Special Omelet Hianu wants one of Eradis's Special Omelets. Go to Eradis and ask for one. Turns out they're made from Frillneck Eggs, and Eradis is fresh out of that. Go into the forest where you fought Frillnecks before, and look for their nests in the hollowed-out bases of large trees. Gather 6 Eggs, and return to Eradis. In addition to your usual payment, YOU get 2 of Eradis Special Omelets! Retrieving Supplies Abolos and/or his men were sleeping on the job, and Dukakis stole their weapons

-31© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide right out from under their noses! To save face, he wants you to dive into the Dukaki mines, and steal back their Crates of supplies. To minimize fighting, though, you can clear out the area around ONE Crate, and keep taking it everytime it respawns! You need 7 Crates, or the same Crate 7 times, or any combination. Dukakis make good farming for money and EXP at this Level. Collecting Poison Sacs Illos is studying the Contamination too. He needs Arachna Poison Sacs.These drop only from BABY Arachnas, but the parents won't be too pleased about your infanticide, so expect to fight both at once. Be careful! Merchant′s Credit Maniparas needs you to tell Geolus something. After you've relayed the message, he gives you 2 Antidepressant. Secret Trade Saminel has a little business on the side. He needs Silver Ore from the Dukakis Mines. If you Harvested some already, when you were looking for the Crates, just give it to him, and let that be that. Otherwise, you have to get 5 Silver Ores. Silver Ores look like shining crystals in this weird world...If you Harvest more than he needs, sell the excess in the Broker, or use it for Handicrafting.

Held Sacred Lunax needs your help! You have to kill Kralls and get back the Sacred Icons of Kasinel. This is one of the hardest Quests in the game. I recommend waiting until you have all the Krall Quests (Or as many as they "let" you have), and doing them all at once with as big a group as you can muster. When you succeed this one, Linax gives you your choice of Boots. Choose Plate Boots, as befits a Warrior Class. Mark Of Revenge AKA Mark of Vengeance Spatalos orders you to kill Kraals and take 50 of their Marks as proof. They killed his wife and child, but it's not affecting his judgement at all! Right. AGain, wait until you get a number of Kraal Quests, then do them all at once. You will NEED a big group to kill Kraals at all, much less enough Kraals to get 50 MARKS! At the end, Spatalos gives you a choice of Chest Armor, choose the Breastplate. You also get Title: Krall Hunter Missing Poppy Ramor's prize Porgus (As close to a straight pig as this universe gets) has been stolen. Go into Dukakis Mine, and just a little east of entry, you'll see a "corral" with 3 Porgus in it. Two of them are "normal", and one is Poppy. Once you find Poppy, talk to it, and move SLOWLY

-32© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide back to Ramor, because Porgus is slow, both mentally, and physically, and can't follow you except in a straight line, and even then, not very fast. You will have to kill anything that gets in the way, BEFORE they can butcher Poppy! Missing Village Seal AKA Stolen Village Seal Santenius says that the Official Seal of the Village has been stolen. Without it, they can't requisition any more supplies or troops, since the people in Verteron wisely won't accept just ANY requisition form! You'll find it in a pile of junk they stole from the Village. However, something's wrong with it...You need to seek advice from Gaphyrk...(Yes, the Gaphyrk from Language Potion--Small world!)

(Which have, by now, almost tripled, since you've done 3 Quests for the price of 1), he offers you your choice of Manastone: HP +55 or Manastone: Physical Critical Hit +9. You can only choose ONE of these Stolen Jewelry Naia's jewelry was stolen by Kobolds! It's those darn Dukakis again! Go into the Dukaki Mine area, and kill every Dukaki you see, giving priority to the ones wearing a skirt instead of pants (That's the only way a HUMAN can tell their genders apart!) There are 3 pieces of Jewelry to find, but the Jewelry is a rare drop, so it'll take a lot of farming/killing to get'em all. Bring them back to a grateful Naia, who will probably lose them again, given security in Tolbas Village...

Gaphyrk′s Love

To A Respected Pilgrim

Gaphyrk won't just GIVE his help away, you need to do something for HIM first! He's fallen in love with a Dukaki! Of course, Love Is Unrequited! You have to hit her once to get her to chase you, then lead her to him. I recommend killing all the other Dukakis in the area to make a clear path for "love"! Talk to Gaphyrk afterward. Village Seal Found Gaphyrk freely gives up! Search the pile AGAIN, bring it back to Santenius. In addition to your regular rewards

Hanontus has a message for a friend of his who has gone on a Sacred Pilgrimage--and YOU are the designated Messenger Boy! Fly or fight your way to Pilgrim's Refuge, and give it to Anasia. Elemental Stone of Resurrection Pilgrim In Trouble Lepios is starving, and needs you to kill things for the pilgrims to eat. YOu need to fetch 3 Abex Hock Meats from the Abex (Goat-like monsters, not aggro, but they ARE social, so if you attack one that is too close to the other, then BOTH will attack

-33© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide you!), and 5 Gryphu Breast Meat (Gryphu are the large raven-like birds circling...everywhere around here!) You WILL need to kill more than just 8, due to the meats not having 100% droprate. Soporific Mushroom Santenius, the pilgrim, is being badgered by Kondors. She has a plan to put them to sleep. You have to pick Soporific Mushrooms, and bring them back to her. They grow wild on the cliff where the pilgrim is, but Arachnas guard them. Fight off just enough Arachnas to grab the Mushrooms in peace. Once you get your quota, bring them back to her.

near the Corrupted Swamp. Go back to Mairon to collect your pay--and 4 Life Potions! Krall Book If you search enough, you'll find a Book about refining Odium, written in Krall. Bring it to Leto in Tolbas Village, and he'll pay you! 'Anti-Krall MeasuresAKA Reconnaissance

Flying

This is another Krall Quest, so you should do it with a big group, and do it with Mark of Vengeance and Held Sacred Be warned, this is long and dangerous:

Lightningfoot Tuka (Quest) - Talk with Estino. Abolos is complaining that a particular Dukaki called "Lightningfoot Tuka" is launching Hit&Run (Literally!) raids on the Village, and wants you to stop that particular pest. Lightningfoot Tuka isn't any harder than other Dukakis, but he keeps running. I advise you bring a friend with range powers, and/or preferably a slowdown/stop power! When you win the fight, report back to Abolos, and get 1 Lesser Running Scroll AND the Title: Bottled Lightning! Congenial Colleague Antidote for Roseino

AKA

Mairon is worried about Roseino, and gives you an antidote to take to her. She's in a very dangerous part of the world,

Talk

with

- Talk with Meteina. - Lure the Tursin Loudmouth Boss to Meteina. This is the tricky one. You need to weaken the Boss. There are two outside the gate. The smaller mob (Shaman, usually) is Social, so Root him. The Captain will NOT aggro when you do this. Now pull the Captain and beat him up to less than 20%. If he is too high you will get a movie of him smacking the guards around before he resets and goes back to his post. If he is low enough, you should

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide get a movie of him yelling, and then the guards subduing him. Beware of the Dukaki Flagbearer. If you run into him while doing this, he will yell for help and ALL the Kobolds in the area will come to assist! You and your whole team WILL get raped! - If you fail: Lure out the Tursin Loudmouth Boss again. (See above) - Talk with Meteina. - Destroy the flags of the Tursin Outpost (0/3) As with other Quests like this, the SAME FLAG can be hit again and again when they respawn--IT STILL COUNTS! - Use Flint (PW/AA) and set fire to the Tursin Totem Pole in the Tursin Garrison. Oddly, this does NOT aggro the nearby enemies...Maybe they LIKE seeing things burn, even their own things? - Defeat Ziloota the Seer...This isn't tricky, it's just plain HARD! Turns out, defeating an enemy is harder than getting them down to 20%--Who knew?! - Talk with Spatalos. If you win all the above, you get your payment, PLUS your choice of Leg Armor. Choose Plate Greaves. Krall Desecration Lunax is afraid of further desecration of the Holy Sites by Krall marauders. He

tasks you to kill 5 SmackStoppers. This quest is most assuredly NOT soloable. The mobs you must hunt are all Elite and there are no Normal versions. There is also no terrain to get the enemies stuck on in the Garrison, so...Yeah. The SmackStoppers are in the Tursin Garrison, not the Tursin Outpost. You can fight your way through the Tursin Outpost to get there, go in the "back door" from Miraju's Holy Ground, or from the middle via Cantas Coast. Sadly, this Quest is assigned AFTER the main group of Krall Quests, but you'll still need a good group. If you succeed, you'll get Morai's Belt in addition to your normal payment. Wedding Ring Enia lost her wedding ring, and wants you to get it back. Ironically, for this Quest, you don't HAVE to kill anything! Run west, above the i in "Ellun River Mouth" avoid the aggros in the area, then glide off the cliff and come back in. Right at the corner of the cliffs and the shoreline is a tiny purple Jewel Box. Open it and grab the ring! Bring it to Enia for more money and 2 Enia's Lunch Box, or to her husband for more EXP, but no food. Choice is up to you. Healing Potion Kinesos, safe in Verteron, is worried about Illos. He gives you a "Special" Potion for Illos. Illos is in Southern Tolbas Forest, where the wild (and AGGRO)

-35© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide things are When you give him the Potion, he says there's too much for just him, so he dilutes it, and gives you the other part of the dilution, telling you to bring it to Roseino in the Contaminated Swamp. When you give Roseino her package, in addition to your normal pay, you get 4 Healing Potions. These are NOT the same as Life Potions. Rather than healing your HEALTH, they free you of Stun or Knockdown. Headless Stone Statue A Headless Stone Statue gives you this Quest. Find its head and bring it back! Eninte′s Request Eninte has a request: Give a necklace to her ex. Sounds harmless enough, right? And certainly no different than any other FedEx Quest you've had to do lately, right? Just take the necklace to Sanctum, and give it to Thersites. That was too easy for this area... Eninte The Banshee Turns out, she took a "love potion" that turned her into a Banshee, so you have to go back and put her to rest. [Collection] Lagos′s Request AKA Hungry Abex Considerate Lagos (A TALKING ABEX!) needs Targena (Another Herb, harder to Harvest) Harvest 12 Targena, and bring it back to him for immediate

payment and EXP! [Collection] Give and Take Considerate Lagos, the magic talking Abex, needs you to Harvest 12 Liguri and give it to him. He pays well, once you get over the fact that you're literally being goat-ed into this... Sealed Secrets Spatalos offers this as soon as you hit Level 15. HOWEVER, a quick glance at your Journal (Hit J) shows that it's a Level 20 Quest, so it will NOT be easy! The Tursin are starting a Portal of their own. You need to destroy it. Bring lots of friends! Return back to Spatalos afterwards for your rewards: Choose Protector's Silver Ring or Protector's Rose Quartz Ring AND the Title Verteron's Warrior Stopping the Conspiracy of Lepharist Revolutionaries AKA "Nest of Lepharists" The Lepharists are stepping up their activities, so you are ordered to stop them. Meet up with Khidia for a magic disguise. (You WILL have to fight through--or run through--Tursin territory!) When you become the Plumis, fly down and out, then west around the point to the shipwreck. Now go up the ramp to the main deck, through the cabin door and down into the hold to listen in on a meeting. A cutscene will run, and when you come back the

-36© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide shapechange will vanish. If unlucky, you may be attacked at this point. Report what you saw and heard to Khidia. Now you have to do a FRONTAL attack on the ship, and kill the Captain and his bodyguards. I repeat, he WILL bring bodyguards. I recommend you bring at least 2 friends of your own! Loot his body for "Kinsgreen Orders" Bring the Orders to Khidia, then return to Spatalos for your reward, which includes your choice of Helmets! Since you're a Warrior, choose Spatalos Plate Helmet! One more step to looking like the walking tank you're supposed to be! A Foolish Gamble Perinens bet a fellow Guard that she is as brave as any man. To prove it, she has to steal Krall weapons from crates in the Tursin territories. She wants YOU to do that for her. She even says YOU can keep the money she wins in the wager! Once you steal 8 Krall Crates, bring them to Estino, the guard between Verteron and Tursin territory. He'll be suitably impressed and give you the money! Mopping Up Slimes AKA Slaying Slimes Roseino wants to guarantee the safety of the pilgrims that will come this way. So she tasks you to kill 12 of the Poisonous Slimes in the area. Slimes are ugly, but surprisingly easy to kill, HOWEVER, they Poison you...Bring

extra Life Potions to counteract the effects! A simple Kill Quest, with normal rewards, PLUS 2 Verteron Citadel Return Scrolls! (They send you to Verteron from ANYWHERE in the game!) Immortal Plant AKA Swamp Plant Samples Roseino needs 20 Samples of the local Swamp Plant (They look like either big red eggs, or the largest raspberries I've ever seen). UNLIKE most NPCs, she's not completely useless, and has managed to gather 13 by herself, leaving only 7 more for you to get. There's nothing EXPLICITLY to fight here, since the Swamp Plants are separate entities, like the bags you had to steal from Kerubs and/or MuMus, but you may still be attacked while collecting samples. This and Slaying Slimes (See above) should be done together. Ribbit Blood Roseino is starting to hallucinate about the trees around here! She needs glands from Mud Ribbits to counteract the hallucinogenic poison in the air! (I wouldn't be surprised if a LOT of hallucinogens were involved in making this game!) Bring her 5 Mud Ribbit Blood (Isn't it amazing how the blood is packaged already in vials?). Since this is a LOOT Quest, rather than a KILL Quest, you'll need to kill more than 5, but Ribbits are easier than Slimes--and no Poison!

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Violent Plumas

Plumas

AKA

Poisoned

Meliodas, Roseino's colleague, ALSO has jobs for you. First, he wants you to kill 9 of the Contaminated Plumas, who drank the tainted water and some have turned aggro. Otherwise, they're the same flying pests you fought back in Tolbas Forest. Mysterious Stones Meliodas wants you to loot fragments from the Mysterious Stones that hover over the road in random places. You don't HAVE to fight anything on this Quest, but the enemies WILL try to interrupt your scavenging. Bring the fragments to Vascus, not Melodias, and he'll give you your normal Quest Rewards, PLUS 100 Lesser Power Shards. [Coin] Killing the Violent Spirit Meet Anontrite in the Ardus Shrine...A "Combat istration Officer"--in other words, a battle ANT! She'll give you an Iron Coin IF you can kill: - Atmosphere Spirit (0/14) - Frost Wind Spirit (0/8) Unlike the other Spirits in the area, these are not only AGGRO, but SOCIAL to boot! They'll call their friends in, you should bring some friends along too! Iron

Coins are NOT like normal money, they are special tokens you can save up for extra-special rewards, from weapons, to Armor, to consumables well beyond the norm in power! This Quest is Repeatable, up to 100 times. [Collection] Feed A Cold Vascus wants to make a "healthy" stew of Ruko and Rubus. Rubus is a "Zesty Fruit", which might be good, but Ruko is a TEXTILE FIBER! Still, just find and harvest 10 Ruko and 5 Rubus and bring them back, so he can make his strange soup--and pay up! Kalgolem′s Essence Ibion says that some golem parts make good tourist souvenirs, so you have to kill them and take their Essences for sale and analysis. , this is a LOOT Quest, not a KILL Quest: You need 8 Essences, but that does NOT mean just 8 kills, as some don't drop their Essences upon death! Kalgolems, despite their rocky toughness, are good to farm for EXP! Rest In Peace, My Brother! AKA Dispelling Ancient Spirits Ibion wants you to kill the Ancient Elyos Spirits that keep scaring off his customers. Despite having one fearsomely-named attack "Death Strike", all it does is push you away and Stun you, then THEY have to chase you to beat on

-38© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide you--by which time, you can recover and beat on THEM! Kill your limit, then return to Ibion, and he'll give you your normal rewards, PLUS an Elemental Stone of Revival. This is a GREAT prize because it allows you to resurrect yourself ONCE when you die!

- Veteran Tursin Loudmouth (0/10) Once you finish, she pays you, PLUS giving you 10 Regular Shock Alleviation Scrolls, which are basically thicker Shields than the "Lesser" versions thereof. [Group,Repeat] Krall Who Never Give up AKA Persistent Krall

Tribute To The Temple Vascus needs you to bring a Tribute to a shrine, because otherwise, his pet Golem will get dangerously violent...At least THIS one has justification for not leaving his spot. If you can do it, then Lunax at the Temple will give you 2 Lesser Raging Wind Scrolls! That lets you drastically increase flight SPEED, but not flight TIME! Lunax, and the Temple for that matter, are at the top of a big tree, surrounded by a moat. Stand OUTSIDE the moat, and hit Pageup, then fly up to him. Land on the broken bridge WITHOUT waking up the Gargoyles. The Gargoyles are Elite Bosses, and will shred you without warning, and without effort! [Group] Reducing the Number of Krall Meteina's job for you even says "GROUP" in the name, so you will DEFINITELY need one! She wants you to cut back the number of Krall around there by killing: - Veteran Tursin Cracker (0/10)

Meteina wants you to cut back MORE Krall! - Veteran Tursin Cracker (0/10) - Veteran Tursin Loudmouth (0/10) You get paid, plus a Mana Potion! Not as good as the first time you did it, but it's free bonus money and EXP. You're gonna need a group anyways. Think of this as the Repeatable version of Reducing the Number of Krall Ancient Stone Fragment The Ancient Stone Fragment is a rare drop from any mob in Tursin Garrison. Bring it to Selene in the Verteron Citadel if you find one. Spirit Of Nature Elote gives you this Mission. She needs you to get the Earth Spirit. Elote is in the middle of "Miraju's Holy Ground". In fact, LITERALLY between the three words on the map! First, find Mileno, the talking tree to the west of the Ardus Shrine, near the path. He gives you the Water Spirit. Now, find Alrunta, the talking tree on the EAST of the Ardus Shrine, also near the

-39© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide path. He changes the Water Spirit into an Earth Spirit for you. Bring the newborn Earth Spirit to Elote. She'll pay you, AND give you 3 Wind Potions, to keep aloft longer. Cerios′s Investigation Report Cerios has a report for you to bring to Hyacinte in the Verteron Citadel. Get paid for FedEx! Unquiet Spirits Lunax has ANOTHER threat for you to quell. Kill 6 Aqueous Spirits that threaten the Holy Grounds. Sap Suckers Elote gives you this one too. Kill Violent Rippleworms and take their Villi (The digestive parts of the intestine--Do I WANT to know what she'll do with that?). Once you have 5 Villi, bring it back to Elote. In addition to your usual payment, she'll give you 2 Elim Essence. Elim Essence is a LITERALLY all-natural performance booster that boosts Physical Damage by 2 and Magic Damage by 10! [Repeat] Elim Still under Threat Elote wants 5 MORE Violent Rippleworm Villi. BUT she'll only give 1 Elim Essence this time. You can repeat this Quest up to 100 times, if you need more Elim Essences. Secretive Scorpion

Morai tells you to meet with Notos on the Contas Coast. Another quick FedEx, but this one takes you through Tursin Territory! RUN FAST, or bring a posse! Potcrab, the Headache Zephyros has a job for you. SAND PotCrabs are threatening us! Oh, no! Kill them and collect their Sharp Pincers. Once you have 7 Sharp Pincers, bring them back to Zephyros. [Repeat] Continued Threat of Potcrab Zephyros thinks you did such a great job in Potcrab, the Headache, you should do it again! Now, though, you only need 5 Pincers! Let's see, fast kills, good pay...This is a good Quest! You can repeat this 100 times, for some pretty impressive money/EXP bonuses! Revolutionaries on the Shipwreck Khidia wants to find out what those Revolutionaries are up to now. (Wait, didn't we find out in "Nest of Lepharists"?) All you have to do is kill Lepharist Crewmen until one of them coughs up Lepharists Orders. Bring those Orders back to Khidia and get paid! An Urgent Letter Selene has an urgent message for you to take to Khidia. No time to waste(TM)! [Collection] Can′t Please Everyone Une has a nice, easy Quest for you. Harvest 15 Oysters, and bring them back

Flotsam Phorcys isn't sure what the Lepharists brought with them, but wants it destroyed. Destroy 12 of the Crates floating in the water around the Shipwreck, and report back!

(Requires Krall's Conspiracy) Spatalos wants you to scout out the "danger" of the krall. Go up to the Portal you destroyed in Sealed Secrets (Unless you didn't do that one yet, in which case, this is the PERFECT time to do it!) Kill 9 Tursin Elite Searchers. Go back to Spatalos and tell him the job's done. He'll pay you and offer you your choice of Rose Quartz Necklace or Amethyst Necklace! Numonerk′s Demand Note

Spatalos needs reinforcements. So he sends YOU to Sanctum to requisition them! Meet with Lavirintos in Sanctum. Lavrintos is on the top floor of the Protector's Hall. Take the elevator up from the Hall of Artisans, then take either staircase up to the top floor. He is by the Governor's throne. He es you off to Xenophon. Then go back to Spatalos and tell HIM the news. [Group] Krall′s Conspiracy (Requires Reinforcements for Verteron Citadel) Spatalos needs some evidence of a Krall plot. So he sends YOU to get it! Kill a Tursin Loudmouth Chief and bring back his Odium Necklace to Spatalos. He'll give you 3 Lesser Running Scrolls to make your

Taiotus says there's some problem, and wants you to resolve it. Go talk to Worker Supervisor Numonerk. He gives you a letter with his demands in it. Give the Demand Note to Une. Lepharist Treasure Box (Requires Numonerk's Demand Note Une has an idea on how to afford these demands: Steal it from the enemy! That means YOU have to steal 3 Lepharist Treasure Boxes from the Shipwreck, and bring them back to Une. As with most Quests of this type, you CAN just stay near a lightly defended one, and keep re-grabbing it, everytime it respawns. A Secret Delivery (Requires Lepharist Treasure Box) Une puts all the treasure you stole in Lepharist Treasure Box into ONE box.

-41© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide You are tasked to bring the box to Shurerinerk in Eltnen. (Eltnen is the next Zone after Vertron. You need to use the Teleporter to get there!) You get paid, and you get a Level 20 Enchantment Stone. This allows you to pump up ONE weapon or ONE piece of Armor. See Enchantment Stones above.

Levels 20-30 This is where it gets good. During this time, you'll get some REAL AOE attacks, BUT during this time, the enemies WILL be harder, and grouping will become more and more necessary, rather than just "handy". At the very least, make friends with a Cleric or Chanter, to keep you healed on long battles, in exchange for the Mana Potions you are sure to pick up! Nature's Balance Gaia continues the odd "ecological" bent of Elyos Quests, by saying that Armored SPARKIES have begun to overbreed in the forest, usurping and u their food supply. You have to kill 10 Armored Sparkies--and at this Level, they actually put up something of a fight! You get money, EXP, and 2 Lesser Mana Potions for your trouble. Violent Pluma

Gaia had you trim the population of Sparkies back in Nature's Balance, now she wants you to prune the Plumas back too--literally! You have to take 9 of their tail-feathers! When you succeed, you get 2 Life Potions. A Teleportation Experiment BE WARNED! This Quest is a trap, it will teleport you to Asmodae, where your death is just about assured! Onesimus is excited because Sonirim has figured out a new way to teleport people, with just Aether alone! He wants you to test this power. You'll be given the usual choice of teleport destinations, Poeta, Sanctum, or Verteron. Regardless of which you choose, you'll be sent to Asmodae, which is ENEMY TERRITORY! Run and hide, or get slaughtered, your choice...Either way, get back to friendly territory ASAP! Make your way back to Sonirim, and get paid, PLUS 2 Eltnen Fortress Return Scrolls, in case you ever get too far away from Eltnen, whether by "accident", or by your choice, ever again! An Elim Out Of Water Zelaka is getting lonely. He hasn't heard from his fellow tree-people. He wants you to check in on his friends, Virdi and Alrunta. Virdi is happy to hear from him, while Alrunta waxes eloquent on the whole "Being an Elim" experience--then gives you 2 Elim Essence!

The Manduri's Secret This is a long one, so get ready. Aurelius has noticed Manduri are stepping up their activities in the region, so he's sending YOU to find out what's causing this escalation! First, kill 6 Manduri in the Manduri village. Go back and tell Aurelius the deed (Vengeance?) has been complete. Then talk to Archaeolus, who needs you to find one of their paper airplanes--er--"paper gliders" and get a clue from it. That's right, find it ON THE GROUND--not beat it out of a monster--and "use" it in your Inventory. OMG, they have a hostage! You better rescue her! Her name's Melginie. Melginie spawns in the rear-left corner of the building to the back-right of the Stores, at 828.4, 2611.1, 240.1. You must escort her to Celestine, who is at the Spring, just to the west of the Stores. Only one person can get credit for rescuing her at a time, 5 min respawn (roughly), and there is always a line. Please wait your turn! There is also one Manduri Fighter who spawns in the alcove on the right, on about the same timer. This is a group update, so if many are waiting, group up so ALL of you get

[Manastone] New Manastones for Old (III) Protesias has a Quest to trade in old Manastones for one "better" Manastone--and in a Crowning Moment of Writer's Block, it's named as a sequel to the Verteron version--which is essentially what it is! The Manastones demanded for this Quest are: - Manastone: Manastone: HP +40 - Manastone: Manastone: Accuracy +16 - Manastone: Defense +16

-43© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

Manastone:

Shield

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Although these sound like good things for a melee fighter to have, a Gladiator should be focusing more on Crits&Parry for PVE...Accuracy is necessary for PVP, but you don't really have to worry about that until Level 25+... Nyornyerk's Business Opportunity Protesias has a DIFFERENT Manastone trade-in plan, with a totally DIFFERENT name! I don't know why Nyornyerk is even mentioned in this one... The Manastones demanded for this Quest are: Manastone: MP +40 Manastone: Evasion +8 Manastone: Parry +16 MP is for Mages/Clerics. WARRIORS DON'T USE MANA! (At least not until MUCH later, and even then, not much!). Evasion is for Scouts (Assassin/Ranger). You might wanna hang onto the Parry ones...Or you might get the better ones, that look like broken chunks of wood or serrated Scrabble tiles... Paste Bait Lano needs animal parts to make glue. Of course, since horses don't exist in this weird world, you'll have to make do with the local fauna. Hunt Hook Leg Sylphen (This area's Palette-Shifted the mutant Dragonflies you fought back in Poeta), until you get 3 Sylphen Tails. Kill Web Phaini until you collect 5 Phaini Flippers. Bring the animal parts back to Lano and get paid.

[Collection] Extracting Aether Energy Machaon needs Aether. He wants YOU to fly up and get it! When you collect enough Aether, go back down and hand it over to him. He gives you your payment, PLUS 5 Wind Potions, to keep you aloft longer! (Gee, those would've been useful DURING this Quest!) Forest's Unstable Aether AKA The Manduri Problem Clior wants you to talk to her, then talk to her friend Phomonall...And that's it! Research For The Restoration (Requires Forest's Unstable Aether) Phomonall needs some research done. You're not a researcher, you're the messenger-boy. Take Phomonall's message to Iandeus. No money this time, but MUCH more EXP than usual! Prorite's Money Prorite has ANOTHER FedEx Chain for you to complete. This one is more like a Chain Of Deals that you see in 80's cartoons or sitcoms. Get ready, it's a long one! - Meet Krato and receive the Kinah that Prorite lent. - Go to Hebestis and collect the bill. - Collect the bill from Benos. - Receive the wager from Diokles. - Meet Tuskeos and borrow some Kinah.

[Repeat] Manduri's Fruit Krato wants you to fetch some Red Thorn Fruit from the Manduri. The GOOD news is, it's stored in pots, rather than on the Manduri themselves, so TECHNICALLY, you don't have to kill them.

As with all Quests of this type, if you find an unguarded or lightly-guarded pot, you can just stay there and keep looting the same one everytime it respawns--It'll still count!

After beating the Spriggs, he writes up a report on your performance, and you have to give it to Guheitun. Guheitun is just up the road, standing in front of his tent. Order of the Captain Once you finish, you get a set of "Orders" to take to Ulgorn. Ulgorn is the main leader of the Asmodians in this area, and as such, will be a hub of your adventures. Uldor is in a "camp" called Aldelle Village. It "feels" like Akarios Village, except not as busy... Meeting the Fruit Quota Your next Quest is to...Steal fruit baskets from the Spriggs! Um, ok...This is easy, because the Spriggs are completely ive while you rob them blind! You can kill a few anyways, just for practice. The Spriggs are not even Social, so you can kill them one at a time, quickly and efficiently exterminating them for fun and profit!

Once you succeed, you get a choice of ONE of three pairs of shoes. Choose the Chain Boots, since you're a Warrior. You NEED the extra protection!

Bacorerk, the local Cube Artisan, has a job for you. He wants you to kill Web Slinks (The local 2-tailed snake-things) and bring back their oil to keep everything shiny. This should be fairly easy for a Mighty Warrior, like yourself, so do it, and he'll give you a Life Potion as a reward when you bring him all the oil!

Vanar wants you to deliver the fruit baskets (Which you just stole) to Tobu, Ulgor's second-in-command. Yes, it's a quick FedEx Quest, and no, Tobu is NOT impressed with fruit, and such an obvious attempt to curry favor! Azpha For Health And Wellbeing Where do they get these titles? A Raider along the road needs some Azpha to make Healing Potions! So he sends you to collect it. This is important, because it introduces the Asmodian side of Harvesting, which acts JUST like the light-side version, but with different names. If you haven't already been scooping up all the herbs you can find, this is a great time to start! Risk free EXP, and money if you sell it, or you can use it for Crafting later! Anyways, once you have enough Azpha, turn it in, and he gives you 2 Life Potions to show his goodwill and thanks! The Shinier The Better

that later). For now, to finish her latest project, you need to get 6 Airon Breast Feathers. Airon are the mutated stork monsters in Lake Tunapre, which means you'll have to kill them to take the feathers. A brutal Warrior like you was MADE for this kind of work! Do it and bring her back the feathers, for fun and profit! Token Of A Lost Love Dabi is at the Sap Farm, halfway down the road leading west from Aldelle Village. Apparently, his girlfriend went and became a Daeva, leaving him far behind, and he threw away their wedding-ring in a fit of pique...Now he wants it back, and a Snuffler (Pig) has eaten it! Kill as many Snufflers as it takes to find the ring, then bring it back to him. He gives you 2 Mana Potions along with the normal payment. The Search for Rae

Idle Hands Kaindal wants you to find out what the hold-up is with Motgar's sap-collection. Motgar gives you a Boiled Brax (Food) for NOT beating him up. This leads into The Insect Problem when you hit Level 4! Urd′s Request Urd is a "simple tailor" in Aldelle Village. The name is the Norse Goddess of the Past, which should clue you that she's more than she appears (More on

Nobekk says Ulgorn's headstrong daughter has run off! YOU are tasked with searching for her. This is going to be a LONG Quest, so get ready. First, you have to "interrogate" Dabi at the Sap Farm, allegedly the last to have seen her. After some "reminding", Dabi will tell you that Rae went off to bother the local Witch...ALWAYS a bad idea in fantasy settings! So you have to go talk to Verdandi, the local witch (Again, note the similarity with Norse mythology,

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide specifically the Goddess of the Present!) After some "negotiation", she names her price, killing 7 White Foot Daru. Daru are an annoying combination of kangaroo and goat, and will butt you with their heads. While alone, they're easy prey, they are SOCIAL monsters, which means that one of them WILL call for help. Try to fight the stragglers, as predators have even BEFORE videogames! Once you kill 7, Verdandi will have a NEW condition. She "needs" the spores from a Sticky Mushroom. Find the Mushrooms and retrieve a Spore Pouch. (The Mushrooms grow out of the roots of some of the local trees. Change Channels if the other players have stripped them bare before YOU could!) Upon grabbing it, there's a CHANCE that you might turn into an animal. This is normal, and you'll turn back after a few annoying seconds. Bring Verdandi the Spore Pouch, and she'll it that was just a trick to try to get rid of you WITHOUT holding up her end of the deal! Since you survived, she gives you ONE chance to save the girl. There are lots of Ribbits (Crossbreed of a frog and a rabbit, grown to the size of a standard dog) around, you have to pick the correct one. Look for the one that says "Cute Ribbit" (If you have trouble telling them apart, the Cute Ribbit is a slightly richer shade of blue than the

others.), and click that one ONLY, no others! She'll turn back into a girl, and claim credit for rescuing HERSELF! Run back to Ulgorn, and he'll note that Rae specifically mentioned NOT meeting you, which means that YOU are responsible for her safe return! As a reward, he offers you a choice of weapons. Pick the Sword, since you're a Warrior! The Insect Problem Motgar from Idle Hands? The poor sap (Pun intended) you didn't beat up because he had problems GETTING enough sap to make Armor for the Asmodian Forces now wants YOU to help him get enough. There are two species giving him trouble, Grove Sparkies, and Gooey Sylphens. Choose which species you think is the bigger problem, and kill 10 of them. Whether you made a dent in the insect population is irrelevant, you kept them out of his operation long enough to get his quota of sap, and thus spared him MORE beatings at the hands of characters less merciful than yourself. In gratitude, he gives you 3 Omelets! Sap For Leather Dabi is proud that he met his quota. So proud, in fact, that he wants YOU to deliver the sap personally! Bring it back to Aldelle Village. A Delivery Of Leather

-82© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Dalor is glad to have the sap, so he can finish treating the leather. (Well, in between complaints of being overworked) He wants YOU to bring it to Denma. Denma is stationed at Anturoon Sentry Post. (The guard tower so big, it actually shows up on your map!) Denma is a bit...underwhelmed that you only brought ONE square, but decides to reward you anyways, rather than taking it out on you. The Lost Axe If you do a lot of killing along the road between Aldelle and Anturoon, one of them will drop you an Old Scroll. Read it. It tells of an old legend where an Honest Thief (It's fantasy, ?) threw an Iron Axe into the lake, and a Daeva IN the lake tempted him with Gold and Silver Axe, but he only wanted the Iron Axe, and as a reward for honesty, got all 3! You need to do the same thing. There's a big tree on your map as a hint. On the east side of it is a lake in the "corner" of the mountain range that acts as a natural wall in this game. There'll be a big tree with an even bigger axe stuck in it. When you grab the axe, the Daeva will come back and ask if you threw an axe in. Cop to it, but reject the Gold and Silver Axes, until he brings out the Iron Axe, and it that THAT is the one you threw in. (I think this whole sequence was "lifted" from the old SNES

Zelda game). The Gold Axe is a great weapon for this stage of the game, and you can sell the Iron and Silver Axes for fast cash! Treasure of the Deceased Derot is an ambitious mercenary, who wants YOU--to do a little grave-robbing, RPG-style. Apparently, there's an old prison directly north of Anturoon, and they died rich. Don't ask me, I just kill here. Kill enough of the Vengeful Ghosts to get 4 "Dead Folks Stuff" (Again, who comes up with the names?) Vengeful Ghosts are annoying, but not necessarily deadly. Be careful, they ARE Aggro, and they DO have the ability to turn invisible, but not completely. Look for distortions around the edges of something shaped like a Zombie in chains. (Think of the old movie Predator, the invisibility field wasn't perfect, it had distortions around the edges.) Once you bring back the loot, Derot will reward you with 3 Secret Remedies of Life (Souped-up Life Potions), and a "Brooch of Ghost"--your cut of the treasure--which is useless to wear, so just sell it. Up To No Good Derot has another job for you. To the south of Anturoon, a pirate ship has docked, and pirates are invading your territory. Your Quest is to kill enough of them to get some proof of what they're planning. There's only ONE Pirate Journal

-83© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide to "collect" to beat this Quest, but the drop rate is a LOT less than 100%. Read the Journal once you get it BEFORE turning it back in to Derot. In addition to "normal" Quest Rewards, you get 4 Hard-boiled Junia (Broccoli), trade these to another player for something that helps your HP. Warriors have NO use for a Mana boost, and even Gladiators don't use much Mana! "You Warrior, not Mage!" A Cursed Opal Derot wants to give that Pirate Journal you found to his rival, Lidun. Or more appropriately, wants YOU to give the Journal to his rival. She's 10 feet away, so this is a very EASY FedEx Quest! Treasure Map Lidun is disgusted with Derot's transparent ploy, but greedy enough to interested in the Treasure, so she sends YOU to get aboard the pirate ship, and steal their Treasure Map! This is actually fairly hard, even with teammates, because the pirates respawn fairly fast--and the Map doesn't! You have to cut a swath through their ranks, get aboard the ship, and keep killing enough to keep the deck clear so you can steal the Treasure Map. It takes a LONG time to pick up that map, for some reason. If you have teammates, you'll have to spend even LONGER, so it can re-respawn for each of your team .

Black Opal (JUST this side of infringing on the copyrights of Pirates of the Caribbean!) Lidun reads the map, and is very excited that the legendary Black Opal is on this very land! (What are the odds?!) It's guarded by a mythical beast called Carak (Boss Monster), but that should be no problem for you IF YOU HAVE TEAMMATES!. Again, you have to keep killing Carak and the lesser monsters in the cave until everyone can scavenge the garish PURPLE treasure-chest in the back of the room. After all that work--it turns out to be FAKE! Lidun gives it to YOU in disgust. It might be fake, but it's the ONLY Neck item you'll get for quite awhile, so wear it anyways! Moreover, you get the Title Treasure Hunter! Food Thieves Mijou has a problem...And all NPCs' problems will quickly become YOUR problem, so listen up! Fanged Karnifs are decimating the local Brax population, which means no meat for the Raiders, and they're afraid they'll have to resort to eating bugs&fruit! Kill 9 Fanged Karnifs to reestablish the Raiders at the top of the Food Chain! Karnifs are essentially the Asmodian version of Worgs, but they look more like panthers with spikes sticking out at random places. They ARE aggro, and they hit fairly hard, for their Level! When you win, you get 4 Roasted Brax (Food).

-84© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Brax Skin Rug Denma has the opposite problem. She's old and freezing, so she wants to make rugs&blankets of Brax Skin. YOU are her chosen Agent of Death. Kill enough Brax (Buffalo monsters) to collect 8 Brax Skins, so she can bundle up and stay warm. Charmed Cube Derot, the scheming subaltern, has another Get Rich Quick scheme for you. There's supposedly a Charmed Cube with amazing riches inside! And of course, it falls to YOU to go get it! This is another LONG one, so be ready. Firs, head back north to the Prison again, and knock on the Graves to get the Ghosts to fight you. (ONE AT A TIME, PLEASE! And try not to have any "normal" monsters attacking you when you do...You're still "just" a Warrior, you can't handle large incoming enemy squads! Also beware of the worm-creatures that pop up and spit poison at you! Eventually, you'll get lucky and get the Charmed Cube! Bring it back to Derot. Derot will try to open it, but THEN he'll read the instructions--I mean INSCRIPTIONS--on the Cube. It says only a Daeva can open it. The only Daeva he knows is Munin, who was imprisoned in the very Prison you just left. So you have to head back up to the Prison again! Don't worry, he's not one

of those (un)dead...things. Just continue straight north of the entry of the Prison, and you'll come across some people frozen in purple crystals. Munin is in the LARGEST of these crystals, conveniently at the very place where your path dead-ends! Talk to him. He says he CAN open it, but warns of a terrible curse on the treasure within. (Hmm, cursed gold...More Pirates of the Caribbean references?) As his "Price of Services Rendered", he wants you to kill 3 Grave Sparkies (The mutant fireflies). The ones here at the Prison grow absolutely HUGE, but they still die like the rest AS LONG AS you're not under attack by any of the REAL monsters in this area. Once you killed 3 Grave Sparkies, go back to him. Somehow, he gets the Cube open, even though he's STILL INSIDE THE PURPLE CRYSTAL! (Some who have played WarHammer 40K too much will note that the purple crystal bears a striking resemblance to Dark Eldar architecture...Coincidence, or lawyer-friendly cameo?) Bring the opened Cube back to Derot. He'll reward you with your cut of the loot, the Ring of Ancient Ghosts. Unlike the Ghost Brooch, this one is actually USEFUL to WEAR, rather than sell! Ashes To Ashes If you do enough killing in the Prison, taking in the chaotic atmosphere, and

-85© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide taking OUT everything else, you'll eventually happen upon a Silver Necklace. Right click on it, and it will tell you it belongs to the Ghost Jailer who patrols north and south in the prison, even to this day. Take it to him, and he'll tell you HIS tale of woe, and you can help unburden him by collecting 3 Bone Piles and putting them in the Incinerator. Yes, it's another Collection Quest, BUT it's in a fairly dangerous place, with TONS of Aggro monsters. It's worth doing, though, because fighting is your primary method of gaining EXP, the monsters in the Prison don't respawn TOO often, and more importantly, part of the reward is 2 "Minor Secret Remedy of Life"--again, a souped-up Life Potion. Checking On A Friend Mijou is worried about a friend not getting a Whetstone in time. So she has everyone's favorite delivery-boy (That's YOU!) bring it to her. The friend's name is Delle, and she's waiting at Anturoon. A simple FedEx Quest. A Demanding Request AKA The Imprisoned Gourmet Munin--the guy sealed in the purple crystal at the far north end of the Prison--gives you this Quest for no apparent reason. He wants you to harvest some "delicacies" in the outside world for him. You can only smuggle ONE into his crystal. The reward varies depending

on which "delicacy" you bring him. - Ginger Root--Hat (HP +32, MagRes +30, Evasion +21)--from Gray Mane Mau in the Odella Plantation. - Methu Egg--Belt (MagRes +18, HP +8, MP +8)--in UNGUARDED coops in the Odella Plantation. - Sparkie Eggs--nothing. The eggs were rancid. From Grave Sparkies in Ishalgen Prison Camp, but also found all over the zone. I recommend the Ginger Root, and therefore the Hat, because you can get Belts anywhere as random drops or other Quest rewards, and the Belt is about half as good as the Hat. Besides, even a cursory glance at the stats shows that the Belt was meant for Mages or Priests! Beware, though, the Odella Plantation is thick with monsters that are both Aggro AND Social--They'll attack you on sight, and call for help when you start winning! Bring friends, because the enemies always will. Also, in the Plantation, killstealing is NOT a bad idea, and if you can hack it (pun intended), take a swing at a monster that's chasing a fellow player. You never know when YOU will be running from superior odds, and YOU will need rescuing! If you're lazy and give Munin Sparkie Eggs, you get nothing, because you don't even have to leave the Prison for that!

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide He'll chew you out for it, and you know you deserve it! Captain′s Secret Jephani, one of a pair of guards along the road from Anturoon to the Prison, has a terrible secret: Ulgorn is sick! She needs 5 Sparkie Legs, and 3 Amphis Thorns to make a cure. That means you need to invade the Prison again, kick ass and forget names until the monsters in question cough up the necessary items. , the droprate is NOT 100%, so you may have to kill more than 5 Grave Sparkies and 3 Amphis (The worm-monsters that "hide" as a flat triangle on the ground--but can still be targeted, even in this state!) to satisfy the Quest. Also, for whatever reason, ONLY Grave Sparkies--the ones in the Prison--drop Sparkie Legs for this Quest! Teaching A Lesson Mijou tells you that the Raiders made a move without you--and failed miserably! The Mau in the Odella Plantation kicked their asses, and they need YOU to steal some Odella from the Plantation, so they don't look weak. This is a KILLING Quest, as the Gray Mane Stalkers carry the Odella on their bodies, rather than leaving it in crates or bags for you to loot. And you STILL have to deal with the other monsters on the Plantation--Which are ALL Aggro and Social to boot! Bring friends or even let

annoying killstealers tag along to deal with the extra monsters in the area. The more targets you bring, the fewer monsters will concentrate on YOU. You are still "just" a Warrior, and all your attacks are single-target! When you bring back the Odella, Mijou will offer you your choice of Leg Armor (Glorified pants). I recommend the Chain Greaves, since you ARE a Warrior! Hit Them Where It Hurts Mijou isn't satisfied with just Teaching A Lesson. Now, she wants you to steal the enemy's grain, because it's infused with Aether. Luckily, this grain IS in convenient bags for you to loot, but NOT at your leisure, as patrolling and respawning monsters will interrupt your theft, and you'll have to get rid of them the way only a Warrior can! When you come back with the grain, you get your choice of BOOTS to go with the Leg Armor! Again, I recommend the Chain Boots, since you are a Warrior! As Much As You Can Carry Devious Devalin has an offer for you. Apparently, Odella isn't the ONLY product on the Plantation. They also produce Odella JUICE, which although treated as a waste-product, it ferments and becomes a "highly profitable beverage" (In other words, you're stealing and bootlegging booze!) They store the juice in urns, so you can steal without killing--in

-87© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide THEORY--but as with the grain in Hit Them Where It Hurts, the enemies will keep interrupting your thefts, and you'll have to kill them anyways! Alfrigh′s Request Alfrigh--a Raider between Anturoon and the Odella Plantation--has a "request" for you. He needs 5 Iron Ores to complete a weapons project he's working on. The problem is, Iron Ores are only found in Odella Plantation (or in Dubaro Vine Canyon, but you REALLY don't want to go there yet!) When you bring back the Ores, he'll have enough to make YOU a weapon too! Choose the Sword, although it's debatable whether that can compete with your Golden Axe.

(See Alfrigh's Request, above) Alfrigh will be glad you warned him, and will delay his plan, but will give you 2 Life Potions to show you he's "serious about getting filthy rich". Quite delusional, for an NPC! Pearls Before Swine Devalin wants the Ornaments of 8 Gray Mane Scratchers. Kill them and bring him the Ornaments. Again, though, since this is a LOOT Quest, not a KILL Quest, you may have to kill more than just 8. Gray Manes are no pushover, and worse, they summon help when you're winning. Bring teammates, or try to time your invasion along with a horde of other players, for distraction/self-preservation!

The Robbery Plot

A Good Tonic

Mijou has another problem--for you, of course. Some friends of hers wanted to mount a robbery on the Odella Plantation, and had ordered some explosives for the purpose of distraction. She wants YOU to check if the explosives are ready yet. (If you didn't feel like you were working for the Mob before, this should about drive it home, splinter factions, plans within plans, etc.) You'll have to go back to Aldelle and talk to Hephe, the Smith (And apparently demolition expert on the side?) there. Once you get the word that they're not ready yet, you have to notify their co-conspirators, headed up by Alfrigh

Alfrigh has ANOTHER great idea--for you to carry out, of course! He wants you to steal 8 Dried Ginseng Roots (NOT to be confused with the Ginseng Root you got for Munin back in The Imprisoned Gourmet) from the DunDun, the bear-like Humanoid Monsters that run the Odella Plantation. This time, you'll almost have to AVOID the Gray Manes, since they'll take up time and HP that could otherwise be spent killing DunDuns! (As a side-note, the Odella Plantation is a GREAT place to grind money or Levels, IF you can handle the volume of monsters respawning, and/or if you bring a ton of friends!) Apparently the Dried Ginseng Roots really

-88© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide DO make good Tonic, as the reward includes 4 Mana Potions--I recommend trading these to a fellow player for more Life Potions. Warriors don't USE Mana! Where′s Rae This Time? Once you've beaten all the other Quests in Ishalgen, Ulgorn will have terrible news. His daughter, Rae, has escaped AGAIN! This is a LONG Quest, so be ready. If you have already gotten to Level 9, I advise you to skip to Ascension, and come BACK to this one! Being Level 10 and a full-fledged Gladiator will be a real help for this one! First, talk with Nobekk. He'll tell you to... Talk with Derot. Derot (Whom you know to be devious already) will tell you to speak to his "trusted subordniate" Nalto. Nalto, for his part, got lost in the Dubaro Vine Canyon. Dubaro Vine Canyon is a nasty place with TONS of Gray Manes stalking its narrow, uneven halls--and because they ARE narrow, it's harder to avoid a fight if you don't have the HP to handle it! Stock up on Potions and Bandages! Go into the Canyon, and keep taking the LEFT fork, whenever the path forks. Talk to Nalto. That will start Suspicious Activity (See below) as well as the next link in this Quest. Rae is further down the tunnels, hiding behind some barrels. (Minor side-point: If YOU can see her, why can't THEY? Part cat should make them the ULTIMATE

hunters, right?) Talk with Rae. She'll warn you that the Gray Manes are about to open a Portal to the Demon Dimension! As with the Elyos side, kill enough enemies to clear a path, and destroy the three power generators. Go back and talk to Rae, and she'll take credit again, but Ulgorn sees some details missing, so YOU are given the credit, as well as a cutscene-flashback of your character in action! More importantly, you have a choice of Chest Armors. Again, pick the Chainmail! AND you get the Title Raider Hero! Suspicious Activity AKA What Are They Up To? Nalto gives you this Quest while you're looking for Rae the second time Where's Rae This Time? They want you to sabotage the Grey Mane's whole organization by taking out their leader, Hatata the Torturer--who is a Boss--and at least ONE of his "Strong Fur" Elite Guards! The Strong Furs will be no problem, but you will almost DEFINITELY need a group to kill Hatata! If/When you win, you get a choice of Gloves. Choose the Chainmail, as always! Ascension This opens automatically as soon as you reach Level 9. Manin--The Imprisoned Gourmet--wants to see you urgently. He thinks he can restore you! He has three allies for you to find.

-89© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide First is Urd ( the "simple tailor" from Urd's Request?) She gives you her Card, once you mention Manin's name. Second is Verdandi, the old witch, who is a little more reluctant, but gives you her Card. Third is Skuld, who seems almost regretful to give you HER Card... This ends the Three Cards part of your Ascension Quest. Your Past is a Blackbird, your Present is a Departing Ship, and your Future is Storm. This allows the Imprisoned Gourmet to "tell your future", and unlock your Daeva Powers! You fly around the Abyss, as before, fight off 4 Elyos Assassins, then fight their General. BUT once you are getting the upper hand, the game takes over with a cutscne that shows you and he going at it like Final Fantasy 8, then he finally gets the upper hand, giving you a blast that bounces you THROUGH the floor, where you explode and devolve into a human! WOW! Daeva′s Ceremony You're not an official Daeva yet! You need to goto Aldelle Village and teleport to Pandemonium. The guy in charge of teleporting will be suitably snarky about your Ascension, but he'll take your money and send you where you need to go anyways. You're given a warm welcome--at swordpoint--by the guards,

but a local Daeva quickly straightens it all out. You're not a full-fledged Daeva until you hit the Graduation Ceremony they've held for you. Don't keep them--or yourself--waiting! After graduation, you're not only able to reach level 10, but more importantly, you're given a WEAPON as a graduation-present! Choose either the Greatsword or the Spear, as two-handed weapons will be your "mode" for the rest of your career as a Gladiator! Now go back to Ishalgen and finish up whatever Quests you were holding back on because you didn't want to waste EXP. Then teleport to Altgard. You've got work to do!

Levels 10-20 Altgard Duties You need to talk to Suthran, who will welcome you to the fort. He's happy to have more expendable labor! All you get is EXP and he hopes you'll be a valuable addition to Altgard! Gee, I feel better already! Lakutu's Exchange The first Quest you'll probably find is Lakutu's Exchange Lakutu, the Manastone Remover, seeks three specific Manastones: - Manastone: HP +30 - Manastone: Accuracy +14

-90© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide - Manastone: Shield Defense +14 Bring them to her, she'll give you 300 EXP and 1 "better" Manastone. This is INFINITELY repeatable, but why? HP is good for Melee fighters. This is mostly for "free" EXP, since Manastones go for virtually nothing at the Vendors--but can be sold for SUBSTANTIAL money at the Broker (AION's version of Auction House)

fodder. HOWEVER, he has a necklace, a GORGEOUS piece of work, to track her down with. You'll have to go back to Pandemonium to solve this one! Take the necklace to Chauminerk, who will say that he did it, for a noblewoman named Lanse. Confront Lanse with the evidence, and she'll have the gall to claim it was STOLEN--then she'll turn around and say that "The Thief" might as well have the Jewelry BOX to go with it!

Lakutu's Trade Lakutu, the Manastone Remover, seeks a DIFFERENT trio of Manastones:

Open your inventory and use the Jewelry Box to begin... Deep Maternal Love

- Manastone: MP +30 - Manastone: Evasion +6 - Manastone: Parry +14 Bring them to her, she'll give you 300 EXP and 1 "better" Manastone. This is INFINITELY repeatable--and it's "OK", since these are "Magic Class" Manastones--but mostly for "free" EXP, since Manastones go for virtually nothing at the Vendors--but can be sold for SUBSTANTIAL money at the Broker (AION's version of Auction House) Arekedil's Heritage AKA Secret of One's Birth Arekedil is having a crisis of EXISTENCE. He's unsure who his mother is/was, and why he was abandoned. Yes, normal TV drama

A 14-page letter "hidden" in the Jewelry Box tells that she was an unhappy spoiled noblewoman, and kind of glosses over her affair, because after all, she was taken for granted. Okay... Turns out Arekedil really IS her son, but she'll deny it under oath. Tell Arekedil the "news" for even MORE EXP! Mau Emissary′s Request In the southwest corner of this little iceberg you find yourself on, you'll find--MAU?! But wait, this one's FRIENDLY! It says something about Itu, who is nearby. Talk to Itu. Itu will send you to talk to Suthran, the patriarch of this snow fort. Once you talk with Suthran, go back to Itu and give him the answer. The Phaini Threat

-91© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Heidunn wants you to kill some beasties. Ice Phainis, to be more precise. Phainis look like Loch Ness Monsters, but flatter...They're on the west side of your iceberg island. Kill 10 and come back for your reward. The Lobnite Problem Morn has a problem for you to solve. Lobnites are becoming a real nuisance. They're some kind of meta-mollusk with the worst parts of lobster, nautilus and not sure what else...Gladiators are natural-born exterminators! Kill 10 and in addition to your normal rewards, you'll get 4 Mana Potions. Learning The Mau Language AKA Mau in 10 Minutes A Day (Another near-miss with copyrights) Now that you've cleaned up the homefront a little, Itu--the Mau you met earlier--has a job for you to make peace with THEIR tribe and protect them from tribes that have sold out to the Demons, but Suthran doesn't trust that! Find Mumu Bon, somewhere in the middle of the ice fortress--more precisely, in the dungeon UNDER the fortress! Drink the Special Potion, and that will teach you Mau immediately, so you can test it by talking to Mumu Bon, then come back out and talk to Itu! You earn the Title Fluent in Mau

Nemnef, the Soul Healer, needs Crystals to help purify and focus thoughts and souls. Crystals grow IN the ice. Gather 6 and bring them back. No fighting necessary, but you can if you want--or combine this with the other Quests, so you have something to do while waiting for the Crystals to regrow! Bring'em back and get paid! A Clean House Is A Happy House Nirmirn needs some house-cleaning chemicals. Chemistry and supermarkets haven't been invented yet (Except...the General Store, curiously!) Luckily, she has you. Harvest 5 Ice Sparky Saps. Because this is a LOOT Quest, not a KILL Quest, you may have to kill more than 5. (Isn't it a surprise that these mutant fireflies can even SURVIVE in this ice wasteland?) Bring the Saps back so she can make everything sparkle. To heal you from that pun, she gives you 4 Life Potions! The Way To His Heart Venoa wants to get her Man to notice her. A full millenium before womens' magazines, she realizes that The Way To His Heart is through his stomach! She wants some steaks. Kill enough Ice Airons (Mutant storks--HERE?) to make 5 fillets! Easy Slice, Easy Money! Again, since it's a LOOT Quest, rather than a KILL Quest, you may have to kill more than just 5.

Crystals Of The Ice Lake

Slinking About

-92© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide (Where DO they come up with these titles?) Tulberg wants you to kill 5 Frost Slinks. (Two-tailed snake/lizard things--how do THEY survive the cold?) This IS a Kill Quest, so 5 is ALL you have to kill. Feel free to kill more if you want the practice or whatever. Because he expects you to fight something more dangerous, he gives you 5 Lesser Shock Alleviation Scrolls (Summons up a shield that takes a hit or two so your HP doen't have to! Think of the Final Fantasy 7 Shell Spell) The Scribbler At random in one of your kills out there, you'll find a book. Use it, and it will say it belonged to Thrud. Thrud is in one of the buildings. He loaned THAT book out to 3 friends--and one of them scribbled all over it! Talk to Tulberg (from Slinking About) He wasn't the culprit. Talk to Borender next (Go up--as in hit PageUp and FLY!) HE wasn't the culprit either! Finally, go down into the Dungeon and talk to Noroia. Wow, you found the culprit--already in the Dungeon! Tell Thrud the "good" news! Fungus Among Us Valurion says Altgard is under attack from above. What's he talking about? He sends you to Borender for details. You WILL have to fly up to meet Borender (The Quest Text says BLENDER, but blenders haven't been invented yet!). He

is standing on the giant "Snowflake" that hovers over the town, and harbors an Abyss Portal! (Abyss is the PVP area--that comes later!) Apparently, battles in the Abyss are so fierce, they send deadly spores into Altgard! Allergy pills haven't been invented yet, so you'll have to fight these spores the old-fashioned way: Full Plate and Packing Steel! (Discrepancy: These spores are deady to the touch, but you can melee them to death?!) Blow up 5 Spores and you win! Be warned, your flight time is quite limited, so you can usually kill 2 Spores per trip. Report back to Borender when you're done clearing the air. He'll give you a Skill Book that once learned, will boost your Physical Attack while airborne. Equally important, he'll give your 4 Wind Potions, which allow you to stay airborne longer. Encroachers Meet Meiyer, second-in-command, and essentially Head of Security at the Fort. Recently, some cultists have made him nervous...Lephardist Revolutionaries--The very cultists you fought on the pirate ship back in Ishalgen! (See Up To No Good, above) Kill 4 of them to "help them understand this fort is loyal and their kind isn't wanted here" (Paraphrase) When you finish, you'll get not only your normal rewards, but 3 Life Potions! Nothing better between fights (Assuming you can't just sit and rest, that is)

-93© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide A Dangerous Crop

Retrieving The Report

Talk to Loriniah. She's got a problem and expects YOU to fix it--as always! The MuMu tribe of Mau are growing/refining Odella. You are sent to scout it out. Get just close enough that the game recognizes you "scouted" the area, then run back to Loriniah, and tell her what you saw. You might have to fight this time: Your assignment is to destroy their crop-carts. (Important note: You can go down the road leading south from Loriniah, turning west at the fork in the road. This is the easiest path to a wagon, next to a small lean-to. You can stay there and do minimal fighting to keep the area clear enough to burn the cart AGAIN when it respawns! IT WILL COUNT AGAIN! This Quest isn't EASY by any means, but this makes it more bearable. Patience can keep you alive longer in this game...) The enemies, however, won't just stand by and LET you! Once you've burned 3 carts (Or the same one three times!), talk to Loriniah again. NOW you will HAVE to fight: Your Quest is to kill Skurvs and Mau and bring back their Hairpins and Belts. You need only 5 Hairpins and 3 Belts, but again, 8 ITEMS may mean MORE than 8 KILLS! After all that, come back to Loriniah to get paid. She'll throw in 3 Mana Potions. I recommend trading those with a fellow player and getting Life Potions instead.

This is a FedEx Quest that DOESN'T clog up your inventory! Rion hasn't heard from the Moslen Crossing. Tell that to Loriniah, and he'll get "Right On That"(TM)! That's it! Nothing to carry there or back...That was too easy! Karnif Threat Oh, that's why the other Quest was so easy. Olenja wants you to kill 10 Karnifs for her. FINDING them is easy; they're all over the place, but KILLING them isn't so easy. When you win, you get 30 Lesser Odella Powder, in addition to normal rewards. (Keep it, it's used as reagent for the Herbal Treatment Skills. Same Powder is used to heal and to recharge Mana--but WARRIORS DON'T NEED MANA!) A Better Trap Olenja realizes that to stop the Karnifs for good, you'll have to "Fight Smarter Not Harder"(TM), so she is building a trap. YOUR part is to kill Togs and bring back 6 of their ribs. (Togs are a strange bulldog-pig monster, so you're literally making spare ribs!) This is a LOOT Quest, so you will probably have to kill more than 6 Togs, but Togs are slightly easier than Karnifs, despite being "deeper in" enemy territory, and Togs have a Stun attack, rather than the Karnifs' DOT. Strange Fruit

-94© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Tigg wants you to gather ONE Okaru Fruit. Sounds simple, EXCEPT that area is infested with aggro Karnifs! While you have the Fruit, you will be limited to half speed, AND you can't glide, AND you'll take 20 damage every so often...Plan your trip carefully, or bring friends to "block" for you...Otherwise, it's a "Simple Task"(TM)! The tree is northeast from the camp. Oddly, it's NOT the big, obvious tree with low-hanging fruit, it's even further northeast than THAT! Luckily, the Okaru Tree is the ONLY one that will have a lit outline and turn the cursor into a gear when you point at the correct tree.

you can brave the Karnifs and Togs along the way, go for it. Humnir will seeing a suspicious wagon, and ask you to search the wagon. If you have a competent party around you, go ahead and do so now, the wagon is along the trail leading southwest out of the village. If you're solo, wait until 18-19, as Grave Robbers are souped-up versions of Lepharist Revolutionaries. They use every dirty trick in the book: Poison, Stun, Knockback, AND calling for help. If one can't kill you, many can! Once you loot the wagon, report your success to Nokir. He'll offer you a choice of Boots, pick the Plate Boots.

Scout It Out

A Long, Lost Friend

This is a long one, so get ready. First, talk to Olenja to GET the Quest in the first place. She'll tell you to "Search Manir's Ferry Dock and find out what the Lepharist Revolutionaries are looking for." This wording is EXTREMELY vague. What you actually need is on the OTHER SIDE of that river, inside the cabin, on a table, you'll find a Document pinned to the table by a dagger. Double-click it, and you'll take the Document, but the dagger will disappear. Read the Document to find out they're after Tiamat's Sword, long thought to be just a legend, etc. Report the result to Olenja. She'll tell you to talk to Hunmir, in Basfelt Village, far to the southwest. If

Olenja THOUGHT she saw Manir. So she wants YOU to say hi to him for her. Nothing physical to bring, so YOU are the message. An easy Quest, except for the Karnif along the way. Frightcorn Seeds Tigg thinks you did such a great job on the Okaru Fruit (Strange Fruit Quest, see above), that he wants you to bring back 5 Frightcorn Seeds. MuMu Farmers and MuMu Gatherers carry it. The Farmers are an easier fight, PLUS they are closer to the exit of the farm. I advise approaching from the EAST, less guarded that way for some reason...This is a LOOT Quest, not a KILL Quest, so you might have to kill more than 5.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Ripened Frightcorn

Manir's Uncle

Tigg says the Frightcorns you got were the wrong color, and thinks it's because of the Mau's amateur Aether-manipulation, so he wants you to steal 3 RIPE Frightcorn cobs. 3 Frightcorn's Memory Make Their Job Easier AKA Picking Off Frightcorn Tigg wants more Frightcorn, so he sends a team to steal more...Your job is to kill the MuMu Patrol and Veteran MuMu Patrol that are guarding the Frightcorn Fields. This is a KILL Quest, but it's not EASY: Veteran MuMu Patrols can Summon Black Paw Mau out of thin air--literally! The Summoned monsters have NO LOOT, but are still worth EXP. Once you succeed, Tigg will give you his Necklace!

Manir hasn't seen his uncle in a long time, so you have to find and hopefully reunite them. Manir's Uncle is across the river and down the cliff, hiding behind the waterfall. Once you find him, Manir's Uncle introduces himself as Groken, and wants you to get his chest. It's behind the cabin, it's a BRIGHT PURPLE CHEST! The Revolutionaries around there must be blind from too much combat, to have not stolen it yet? Groken′s Escape Once you take Groken his chest, he needs you to escort him to his sailboat. Two Revolutionaries will attack you, and if you're not careful, attack HIM! The sailboat is to your left as you exit the cave behind the waterfall. Double-click it and watch him sail into a pink sunset.

Knot Your Average Message

Manir′s Message

One of the MuMu you kill will have a special unwearable Quest Item ring called, "MuMu Grass Knot". Take it to Olenja.

Manir will want to hear of his Uncle Groken's survival and safe escape. Tell him the news for a healthy helping of EXP.

Gleaning The Meaning

Report To Garuntat

Olenja can't figure out the Knot from Knot Your Average Message, so she says for you to take it to Geifon--in an envelope this time. Not too complex a mission, but more dangerous than it seems, as everything along the road is aggro.

Gor in Basfelt Village wants you to talk to his Boss, Garuntat. Takes a long time to GET to Basfelt Village, but once you're there, it's a short trip between Gor and Garuntat. FREE EXP! Lamir′s New Clothes

-96© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Lamir wants you to get him some leather to make new clothes out of. HOWEVER, he wants it from Mosbear Cubs...This is not just a LOOT Quest, it's a DANGEROUS Loot Quest, in that when you attack the Cubs, Mama Bear will come running, and two Mosbears attacking you at once will shred you quickly. A party is almost a MUST for this one. Hint: Always kill the Cub 'FIRST', as the Cub will not run if the parent is still standing, and Mama Bears will not run away from the Cub. That way, you don't chase your fleeing enemy right into MORE enemies! You need 5 Mosbear Cub Leathers to win. And when you succeed, Lamir gives you 2 Minor Armor Refining Stones for your trouble. Great if you're an Armorsmith/Tailor. Otherwise, sell them at the Broker. A Cure For Crazy Garuntat wants you to bring a Memory Quartz to a crazy old man to help him return to lucidity...at least for a time? Yep, another FedEx Quest. A Crazy Request Gor thinks Lake Crystals could be useful for his magic research. He wants YOU to kill Lake Spirits and bring him back 3 Lake Crystals. Again, this is a LOOT Quest, not a KILL Quest, so 3 Crystals will probably mean more than 3 crushed Spirits! He gives you 4 Healing Potions when you bring back all 3

Crystals! Take The Initiative Nokir has a great idea to get rid of the Lepharist Revolutionaries: Kill their leader, Comrade Sumarhon. HOWEVER, NPCs only COME UP with these great ideas, it falls to YOU to actually perform them! You have to kill Comrade Sumarhon, 5 Grave Robber Sentries, and 5 Grave Robber Swordsmen. These are very challenging monsters, ESPECIALLY Comrade Sumarhon (The Boss)! Once you're done with all of those, Nokir offers you a choice of Gloves. Choose the Plate Gloves. Fear Is A Great Motivator AKA Fear This Talk with Nokir. Go to the MuMu Village and get rid of 5 of the Black Claw Tribe. I know, I make it sound so easy, but they're ferocious cat-men fighters. Go back to Nokir and report your success. Talk with Shania. Kill the Arachnas--ANY could drop the Poison Glands! Gather 3 Arachna Poison Glands and take them to Shania. (Important note: You don't HAVE to fight the Feral Black Claw Sharp Eyes on the Poison Glands leg of the journey. Stay out of sight, and they'll wander around, DELIBERATELY leaving you an opening! You CAN just buzzsaw through, but the Sharp Eyes are Elite Monsters, so bring friends, 'cause they sure will!) You WILL have to kill a lot more than 3, as the

-97© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide droprate is horrible for these Glands! Bring the Glands to Shania. Go back to Nokir, and in addition to your normal rewards, he'll throw in a choice of weapons! Choose the Sword! Monster Myth Gefion will tell you about some legendary monster, then send you to Lamir to get some Incense to summon it. Go where they tell you to, and burn the Incense. If the burner doesn't work, change Channel, someone else just did the Quest. Due to a bug or lazy programming, the Incense Burner is on a GLOBAL cooldown, instead of per-player. Kill Infernus, then return to Gefion to get paid and 3 Life Potions! No-Good Slime Hunmir is complaining that the local altar is coated in slime. Well, actually, he's not complaining so much about THAT, since the slime has medicinal properties (I think this is the beginnings of penicillin?), but SOME of the slime has come alive and is attacking the would-be pharmacists! Kill 5 of the Rainbow Slimes to put them in their place. This is a simple Hunt Quest, kill or be killed. Yes, I KNOW that slime is the starting monster of DragonQuest and several other Japanese RPGs, but THESE slimes are painfully powerful, and some even pack a Poison punch! Don't lower your guard!

Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is Shania has a little gambling for you: Can you kill 3 Mosbears AND return to Shania alive in 10 minutes? This is your first timed Quest on the Asmodian side. Mosbears are a difficult opponent even WITHOUT a timer pushing you forward. You better be at the top of your game for this, and TAKE time to rest or Bandage (Or Herb Treatment) between fights, so you don't die and waste even MORE time. (Oddly, this Quest doesn't fail if you die, but again, it DOES waste time!) The rewards for this Quest are higher than normal, probably BECAUSE of the timer! A Thorn In Its Side A Random Mosbear Corpse will have a HUNTING KNIFE stuck in its side (That's a mighty big "thorn"!) Bring the knife back to Nornes, the Leather Tanner! A Friendly Wager Shania STILL doesn't believe you're the better hunter! This time, you have to kill TEN Mosbears, AND take a Tusk from each of them, AND return, WITH the Tusks, within 30 minutes...Killing 10 Mosbears alone, but since it's a Loot Quest, rather than a Kill Quest, so it'll be no easy tusk--er--TASK! If you win, you'll get Shania's Leather Hat AND the Title Mosbear Slayer! Sibling Rivalry

KILL Quest! There's 5 Recovery Potions in it for you when you win!

Then again, if you can kill Mosbears on a timer, taking them at your leisure should be easy for you, right? Moving on...

Gefion wants to teach the MuMus a lesson--or at least, he wants YOU to teach them a lesson! AND he wants you to bring back 5 MuMu Belts! So it's back to the MuMu Village to kick MuMu ass, forget names and steal Belts. MuMu LookLooks are the EASIEST to kill for this Quest, but they can drop from ANY MuMus you can kill. As with all Kill Quests, you may need to kill more than 5 to get all 5 Belts. Bring the Belts back to Gefion and get paid.

Mantigar′s Request At Kaibech's Campsite, Mantigar has a "request" for you. He wants you to kill 3 Crested Pluma. It's an "easy" hunt, except for those darn Mosbears! Flip the birds and come back for your rewards!

Bogurt back in Basfelt Village wants you to get him the fancy Hairpins the MuMu Herb Gatherers wear. This should NOT be confused with the Hairpins from Scouting It Out (See above) The MuMu in the VILLAGE are harder than the ones in the MuMu Farms from before...AND you will probably have to kill more than 3, since this is a LOOT Quest, not a

Gefion is upset that the Mosbears are getting uppity, and he wants you to put them back in their place. The first part is straightforward, kill 5 Starved Mosbears and 5 Fierce Mosbears. Go back to Gefion after you win. NOW he wants you to kill the Boss Mosbear, "Komu SilverClaw". Before you leave, look for the captive Mosbear near where you originally entered

away! An Irritating Problem Mantigar has a problem...And being an NPC Quest-giver, HIS problem becomes YOUR problem! There are too many Nimble Arachnas for his comfort. Kill 5 of them for him. This is a straightforward hunt, BUT Nimble Arachna'lings don't count!'

The Broken Honey Pot Clearing The Path Gilungk broke his honeypot! That wouldn't matter, except he wants YOU to procure a replacement! Ask Tatural where to harvest honey. Raid Beehives and bring the honey to Gilungk. You need NINE BEEHIVES! Warning: each Beehive you break has a CHANCE to summon an Angry Mosbear. Don't break too many at once, else you'll kill yourself with the Law of Averages. Even the ones that DO summon a Mosbear have a few seconds' grace, so you can dine&dash. Either way, once you collect your quota, bring Gilungk the honey, and he'll pay you, PLUS throw in 3 Lesser Physical Critical Hit Increase Scroll--Temporarily increases your chance of getting a Critical Hit in physical combat--which is, oddly enough, EXACTLY what a Gladiator does! They're VERY brief, so use one at the start of a tough battle. Critical Hits not only do more damage, they often knock an enemy flat on its ass, giving you a few free hits, OR time to get

Kaibech wants you to kill Bigfoot Mosbears. Just 3 of them...But , these will be tougher than the Mosbears you fought before! Go back to Kaibech and get paid for your troubles. Stinkflower Antidote Gilungk needs you to collect a random number of Malodor Thorns. Kill Malodors.

Glowing Mushroom Vovetirn needs some Glowing Mushrooms. YOU get to get them! Kill Sprigg Outlaws for Glowing Mushrooms they stole. Bring back 5 Glowing Mushrooms and get paid!

Talk to him, he'll ask you to escort him home. cross the lake headed towards Trader's Berth and he will meet you, at night, just on the other side of the bridge.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Either way, her logic will, of course, be impeccable. The title--and indeed, this whole Quest--are a reference to Sherlock Holmes' catchphrase. The Lost Cube Taora says that Black Claw Sleekpaws stole her Cube. Kill them until one coughs up her Cube, then bring it back to her to get paid! - Easy way: Just north of Taora, there's a Y in the road, and a lone Sleekpaw spawns in the middle of that Y. Keep killing him everytime he respawns, until he coughs up the Cube! Emergency Rations Taora says that the MuMu stole Rations. Kill Veteran MuMu Lookouts, until you collect 3 Emergency Rations, then bring them back to Taora to get paid! This is a LOOT Quest, not a KILL Quest, so you'll need to kill more than 3.

The game gives you this as SOON as you hit Level 13. It announces "Go talk to Gulkalla", big yellow letters, center of the screen, just in case it was somehow not obvious when you click on the Quest. This is a VERY long, but rewarding one: - Talk to Gulkalla. - Kill 3 Hero Spirits. - Talk to Gulkalla.

-104© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Lateni will give you an Iron Coin if you can kill - 6 Bladestorm Spirits - 16 Cyclone Spirits When you have acquired 2 or 4 Iron Coins you may exchange them with Lateni (since you are a melee Class). Unfortunately, the reward is not geared to your Level or your Class and there is no guarantee that you will even be able to use it! For this reason, this Quest is perhaps best for getting Enchantment Stones, especially considering the rewards are Level 16 and this is a Level 18 quest. The reward for 4 Coins will be better than the reward for 2, but other than that it is totally random.

Gulkalla wants you to teach the local Taigas some respect. Kill Taigas until one of them coughs up a Wild Taiga Fang. Bring it back to Gulkalla and get paid, PLUS 2 Life Potions! Securing The Trade Route Babarunerk thinks that Pecku Feathers will keep the Peckus from attacking his caravan. He offers you good money and 2 Life Potions for 5 Pecku Feathers.

Dunck wants you to complete Minusha's skeleton, then kill it! On the Seggurheim side of Impetusium, in a field full of Peckus and old bones, find the one nearly whole Drakkan skeleton and, standing on the inside of its curve, examine it. This will summon Minusha's Spirit for you to kill. Although the bones are of a Drakkan, the spirit that comes looks like a very large cobra. If you cannot click on the bone, change channels or wait. It means someone else just did it, or the object in that Channel is bugged. (See Monster Myth, which has a similar bug)

Taiga Threat AJA Tayga Threat

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide NOTE: If you fail and die, you must talk to Sinood again to get a new Bone of Minusha Go back to Dunck and get paid, plus 2 Drake's Memory! Soul Essence Andgar wants you to kill the lost souls around here, and collect 5 Soul Essences. Only Hero Spirits (Melee) and Sorceror Spirits (Mages) carry Soul Essence.

A Secret Proposal (Requires Mau in 10 Minutes A Day) Emgata is a MAU near the Altgard Ice Fortress! HORRORS! But wait--he's...Friendly? Bring his letter to Suthran. Suthran doesn't believe Mau want peace, so he gives you a letter to take to Cavalorn in Pandemonium. Cavalorn says his info is out of date, so you have to talk to Balder. Balder says it seems legit, so bring the news back to Suthran in Altgard.

Suthran has some orders. Bring them to Morn, deep in Mau country. You WILL need a group, for bodyguard purposes! [Group] Killing a Shaman (Requires [Group] Brigade General's Order) Morn needs you to kill 4 of the Brutal Black Claw Spellshifters, to weaken Mau's offensive punch.

A Bill found in a box In a Big Cargo Box in a lake near Calderon Hill, there's a bill that starts a Quest. - Use Provoke on one box at a time, since some of the boxes have monsters inside instead. The monster boxes will transform and attack, while actual BOXES will remain unaffected! I REALLY recommend only Provoking ONE Box at a time! The monster ones are fairly nasty! Bring the bill back to get paid!

Irlein wants some Krimer for a new fad-diet! - The only places Krimer can be found is in the tilled garden patches in the MuMu Village, and a few spots on the hills above Idun's Lake. Watch yourself when Harvesting there, the monsters don't appreciate your intrusion! Once you Harvest 9 Krimer, bring it back to Irlein to get paid!

Keeping the Black Claw Tribe in Check This is another long one, so be ready! - This Quest doesn't explicitly NEED a group, as it IS technically soloable, but it'll be much easier WITH friends than without, especially High Shaman Abija (Boss) Dellalont has a plan to put the Black Claws back in their place. Talk to Jolk for more details. Jolk will tell you to kill Brutal Black Claw Stalkers. Bag your limit, then go back to Jolk for the next step.

They do not add so as long as you pull them back to avoid AE aggro you should be fine. Take all the time you need to heal between fights. - Once you have them dead, click the Power Generator to spawn a Boss Naga named Kuninasha. - Kill him and loot the body to get his necklace. Now, click on the gate at the top of the hill to destroy it. Do not click on the generator again, or you will get another Naga. If you click on it 10 times, even before the last one is dead, you will

get 10 Nagas! This can lead to quite a crowd. - Exit by clicking on the Gate you entered from, then call home.

the Elyos equivalent of this quest, the mob you need, Armored Sparkle, only spawns inside of the boundaries of the vale where Eltnen Fortress sits. So, unless you can find a time and Channel devoid of all Elyos, the mob you need is smack in the middle of Elyos country and you are going to need a very large raid force to charge in and hold the area long enough to get the drop you need. Then, you are all going to die. *A word of advice: get yourself a Personal Kisk and drop it IMMEDIATELY upon entering Eltnen so you do not have to find another Rift to get back there if something..."unpleasant" should happen. When you succeed, return to Hapenill for your pay,and 4 Lesser Raging Wind Scroll! *This Quest is named after the start of the Hobbit series...Tolkien, the man who started it all!

Go to Brusthonin and talk to Vitda in the Settlers Camp. She wants 13 Frightcorn Legs from Rotten Frightcorn, and 13 Poison Vespine Powders from Poison Wing Vespine.

(WARNING, This quest is a gods-awful time-sink. The Sheluks drop the foreleg nearly 100% of the time, but the Thorns drop, maybe, 1 in 10, and the Clodworm Leather drop rate must be close to 1 in 30! This Quest WILL take hours. The only reason not to abandon it is the size of the reward EXP, which may be why they thought this time-sink was worth leaving in the game...)

- 5 Green Luciferin Pouches Be warned, these ARE in the Sprigg Villages. If you go around the edges of the Villages, avoiding the Hunters and Wardens, you can do this Quest MUCH more easily. [Collection] Vivi's Secret Request Lif wants you to do some more fishing. Catch the specified number of Dorado, and bring them back to get paid. A bad day fishing really IS better than working!

[Spy] Curious Behavior Hakon wants you to collect 6 Caryatid Pieces, dropped by Ancient Caryatids--in Eltnen! Eltnen is in Elyos Country, so you have to gather a group and wait for a Rift heading there. Since this is a LOOT Quest, not a KILL Quest, you'll have to kill more than 6! (That said, these had the highest droprate of any Loot Quest I've seen, almost one per kill!) The MONSTERS are easy, the enemy players, less so. Can be quickly done if you manage to get to the Outpost Mines area undetected. Bring a Kisk, so you can respawn IN enemy territory, rather than having to wait for another Rift! Once you gather enough Caryatid Pieces, head back and get paid. In addition to EXP, you get 100 Abyss Points (Collectible points for super loot later), PLUS your choice of Boots. Again, go with Plate Armor ones, since you're a Warrior, and need that extra toughness!

Once you kill the Millennium Eka, collect its Tentacle, and bring it back to Gelundorf to get a HUGE burst of EXP and Gelundorf's Earrings! [Coin] Clearing The Way Fulla will give you a Bronze Coin if you kill a random number of SOCIAL monsters. Social means they call for help when you fight one, you end up fighting an angry mob, so bring help! Octanu's Lair

Jorund wants you to collect 7 Arachna Eggs. They're laying on the ground, just Harvest them like you do anything else, but the Arachnas will take it badly, so you might have to fight a few of them off. Once you collect all 7, bring them back to Jorund to get paid! [Group] Legendary Amethysts Kellan wants you to collect 3 Amethysts. This Quest is best done in combination with Seeking the Spotlight since both quests require you to go into the same deep part of the caverns. Even the NAME says it's for a group, and they're not kidding, enemies here are thick and merciless, so I recommend at least one Cleric. The Amethysts are party-lootable, so everybody gets one! You get paid money and EXP, PLUS 2 Life Serum. [Group] Seeking the Spotlight Kimssi sends you into the same cave as [Group] Legendary Amethysts (Above) to defeat Servile Kalbak and his 3 bodyguards. (The bodyguards are NOT part of the Quest, but they ARE aggro, and will likely kill you before you can kill

Great for a Tank Build, or just to sell! The Three Keys Anund wants you to collect - Wind Key - Fire Key - Abyss Key *First wing is easily soloed with high dps or duoed with Cleric/Chanter. Not much to say about that, just hug the right wall and work your way towards the Guardian on platform. Jump-Glide down and to the left to skip MOST the Earth Spirits on your way out! *In second wing kill first two patrols on the left, glide from the window and cancel the glide above safespot in platform below (you got to turn right in the air to land there). Clear the path from middle, there's no reason to pull harder packs right or left. Boss is at the end of the hall on the right side. He isn't friendly with other mobs so just pull him separately. Exit is in the same place but left side. This second wing is the hardest if you have a stupid group. *Third wing seems complicated but it's actually more linear than second one. Work your way around the circle

where you arrive and glide down. Then you have two options: take the few pulls and clear your way to the window OR play metal gear solid and time your movement so that you can all the trash here. In second option be quick near the window since there's mobs there that can't be avoided, or kill them. Glide down and now it should be easy enough, just pull carefully and work your way up. Boss is really lame and dies fast. Exit and never return. Return to Anund to get paid and the Ring of Silence! [Group] An Ancient Weapon Bulagand wants you to kill enemies until one coughs up an Ancient Weapon, then bring it back to him to get paid! A Distasteful Duty Jorund wants you to kill the leader of the Kentari. But to do so, you have to fight through all the other Kentari, who are arguably the worst enemies in the game, FROM THE PLAYER STANDPOINT! They call for help and any Kentari in an area of 40 meters Aggros you. They chase you for twice as long as any other mob, and range attack you the whole way. If you get 3+ on you at level 29, you WILL die! Bring a LOT of friends for this Quest! [Repeat] The Munmun's Ginseng Aprily needs you to harvest Fresh Ginseng. Once you have 15 Fresh

Baroshunerk wants you to collect 40 Lepharist Leave es, from Lepharist soldiers on furlough. HINT: The Bodyguards are the best to pull single, as the Mages have a 2k damage Magic Missile cast. It is best to save/have a snare/root ready at about 25% health as they run and try and get help. The es drop on almost every

Hot

Mothir wants you to clean out the riffraff plaguing the Hot Springs. Kill 3 Halabana Mages, 3 Halabana Healers, and 7 Halabana Ambushers.

Impressing Letum Mirmak wants to see what you've got (No, not THAT way, it's not THAT kind of game!) Kill 12 Scoop Tail Tipolids for her, then come back to get paid, PLUS 4 Greater Anti-Shock Scroll (Heavy-duty forcefield to absorb damage in combat. Doesn't last long, but any damage you don't take allows you to live longer and dish out more damage, without using your Rage Skill, right?)

Abex on a Stick Gullveig wants to live off the fat of the land. That is, he wants YOU to kill some animals that are good eating! - Kill enough Obstinate Abex to get 2 Abex Sirloin - Kill enough Sawteeth Jaw Sparkie to get 5 Sparkie Wings Since this is a LOOT Quest, not a KILL Quest, you'll probably have to kill more than 7. Return to Gullveig to get paid for essentially Meals-on-Wheels service! Abex Kebabs For The Soul (Requires Abex on a Stick) Gullveig thinks you did such a great job with the previous Quest, you should do some more work for him!

Quieting the Karnifs Kuriuta is annoyed at all the Karnifs around here--bigger, stronger versions of the monsters you haven't seen since your human days! Kill 7 Hungry Karnifs and 9 Heartless Karnifs. This is a KILL Quest, so all you need is these 16 kills! However, Karnifs are Aggro, so you'll need to defend yourself, and might rack up more kills anyways!

Go up to Bubu Pat, talk to him, and lead him back to Bubu Kong. Careful, he moves slowly! Bubu Kong will pay you handsomely, AND give you 4 Major Anti-Shock Scrolls (Forcefield for those heavy-duty fights, it takes a hit or 2 so you don't have to!) A Father's Revenge Bubu Kong is mad at the Mosbears for endangering his son. So he sends YOU to kill 7 Mean Mosbears and 7 Mean Mosbear Cubs. This is a straight KILL Quest, and those are all you have to kill. As before, I recommend going after the Cubs first, the parent won't flee while the Cub's in danger. When you finish, return to Bubu Kong, who not only pays you, but bestows you the Title: Friend of Kong and

of Silver Mane Tribe.

[Group] Ananta's Plan

[Group] Legendary Armor

This is a LONG one, mostly because of the Mau farming in the middle. You will NEED a group to get this done in ANY kind of reasonable time! - Meet Ananta and hear her Plan (get Quest) - Get Breath of Spirit Shoes from Red Wooden Box. - Kill Mist Mane Mau and collect 100 Mist Mane Mau Hair.

The Secret Ingredient Bubu Kong needs Odella. Kill NuNu farmers until you collect 7 Odella. This is a LOOT Quest, not a KILL Quest, so you'll have to kill more than just 7. Bring them back to Bubu Kong to get paid! [Group] Striking the Elite Mirka is sending you to kill the Elites of the enemies. 10 Sergeants, 10 Sentries, and 10 Infiltrators.

You never MEET the spy yourself, you have to light up a "Secret Beacon Mound" once you find a Rift into enemy territory. I RECOMMEND you bring a group to prevent ganking, and a Kisk to bind to on the other side, just in case you die, whether from monsters or enemy players. When you light the mound, go back to the Asmodian side, and tell Gelkugin your Quest is complete to get paid. As a bonus, you get 2 Regular Running Scrolls! (Run faster for a brief time) [Spy, Group] Killing Mabangtah (Requires [Spy] Our Man in Elysea) Hippolytus sends you to kill a key man in Eltnen--That's right, you have to go back to Elyos side again. Bring a group, as this enemy is a QUEST NPC, and not only is he tough, but the Elyos players will probably resent one of their Quest-givers being unavailable (dead) for any length of time! Bring a Kisk, in case he or one of the enemy players kills you. Once the deed is done, return to

Hippolytus on the Asmodian side, and get paid, PLUS your choice of Chest Armor. Choose Gelkugin's Breastplate because you're a Warrior! PLUS, you get Title: Slayer of Mabangtah. As an additional reward, you get 200 Abyss Points (Collectible PVP points for extra rewards)! [Group] Blueprints for Assassination Rikesh wants you to kill the Commander of the Lepharists, deep in their Citadel. You will NEED a group to keep the ones off you that you're NOT actively fighting, let alone kill the Boss! Get the Base Blueprints while you're there, then head back to Rikesh for your rewards. As a bonus, he'll give you Rikesh's Ring. (Shouldn't this Quest be called Assassination for Blueprints?) [Spy] Researching the Pretor Mirka has heard the Lepharists in Eltnen are researching a new creature, the "Pretor". Needless to say, your side wants a sample of this new threat, to know what you're up against. But wait--Eltnen is on the Elyos side! That's right, you have to wait for a Rift again! Bring a Kisk to bind to, and a group to keep from being easy prey for enemy players, if not help sweep through the Lepharists. - The Quest is kind of vague, so you need to use the game's Pathfinding feature: - /pathfinding Research Diary

-131© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide - It IS case-sensitive, but it will lead you right to the monster and the Diary you need to kill and steal for your side. Once you get a Pretor Cell Tissue AND the Pretor Research Diary, head back to Mirka and get paid, PLUS Kvasir's Earrings AND as additional reward, 100 Abyss Points (Collectible PVP points for extra rewards!) The Klaw Headache Modgud needs you to kill some Klaws. Namely 17 Klaw Peon (Insert WarCraft joke here), and 7 Klaw Sentinels. Nothing to loot, so those 24 are ALL you need to kill! Go back to Modgud to get paid! Emissary to Altgard Chieftain Chaikata sends you on a diplomatic mission back to Altgard--your old stomping grounds.

When you're ready, go back to Morheim, and report back to Chieftain Chaikata to get paid! [Group] Revenge is Sweet (Requires Emissary to Altgard) Chieftain Chaikata wants you to kill a random number of Brutal Mist Mane Monsters. They are Elites, so you WILL need a group!

You'll also get the Title Silver Mane Benefactor Extricating Chaominerk Sararinirerk needs you to "free" Chaominerk. Just run to Chaominerk, talk to him, and run back to Sararinirerk to get paid. You get your choice of Gloves, too! Choose Sararinirerk's Gauntlets. Death to the Shadow Warrior Temoji wants you to kill a STEALTHED Boss! Once you kill it, come back to Temoji to get paid, PLUS a L40 Enchantment Stone, to amp up one of your Armor pieces, or your weapon. Although the Quest doesn't SAY it, you'll need a group, namely, someone who can see invisible...Unless you REALLY feel like using your AOE constantly until you get lucky? There IS a slight distortion when the Stealthed Boss moves around, but it's extremely slight (Depending on the power of your video-card--One time when it actually PAYS to have a crappy system!) The Good, the Bad and the Elim (Requires Death to the Shadow Warrior) Temoji thinks you did such a great job, he sends you on a HARDER Kill Quest. Perform your contract, ire the "clever" Spaghetti-Western reference, then come back to Temoji to get paid! As

Head to Wonshikutz's Laboratory, and kill every Lepharist you see until you collect 10 Smelly Ointments. Return to Malak to get paid. You get 1,025,200 EXP and 10,000 Kinah for this Quest ALONE!

Although it says to bring a group, you CAN solo this, Lepharists are surprisingly easy to kill. SIDENOTE: As long as you can get one or two at a time, and/or bring a group for faster killing, Lepharists make for good farming for Kinah. [Group] Incredulous Nuaka Chieftain Chaikata has a fairly long Quest for you. Kill Mist Mane Mau until you get 150 Mist Mane Mau Hairs! Then find Chieftain Nuaka to get Nuaka's Weapon. You WILL need a group for the Chieftain! Once you have all that, return to Chieftain Chaikata to get paid. He'll offer you your choice of Leg Armors. Choose Plate Greaves of Silver Mane Tribe.

(Requires [Group] Anund's Worry) Anund thinks you did such a great job, he has a harder Quest for you. Kill enough Mist Mane Elite Bodyguard and Mist Mane Elite Head Bodyguard, to collect 60 Bodyguard's Knot. Bring them back to Anund to get 122,000 EXP. You get your choice of weapons as a bonus (Haven't tried more than once, don't know if the weapon reward is repeatable, but I doubt it...) Choose Anund's Greatsword.

- This is essentially a much harder version of Crushing the Conspiracy. You have to survive for 4 minutes while protecting the NPC while level 40 Balaurs attack in waves. While the first wave is non-Elite, there's one Elite in 2nd wave, two in 3rd and three Elites in the last one. Waves spawn according to the timer, so unless you take them out REAL fast you'll be facing a Balaur swarm. - Now the bad news: The Quest counts completed only for those group who actually survive until the end. After the Quest is completed, the player can no longer enter the instance, and thus if someone in your group dies, and the rest survive, the ones who died will effectively need to find another group--and hope they'll survive till the end THIS time. At the end, Aegir pays you well, AND you can choose one of Aegir's weapons. I recommend the Spear!

Hold The Front Line (Requires ALL other Campaign Quests) Aegir wants you to protect a certain spot from Balaur aggression.

A Light Through the Trees Helmut wants you to "knockout" (Kill) Grove Moskys, and bring them to him. Due to the oddity of the loot system in this game, even after you kill one, looting it might not yield an unconscious one! Once you've bagged your limit--literally this time--go back to Helmut. Then he'll tell you to light three streetlights. Once you do THAT, come back to Helmut and get paid!

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide

A Word About DP "What is DP" is THE most frequently asked question in all of Aion. You have THREE bars. HP is Hit Points, self-explanatory, and helpfully in a blood-red hue. MP is Mana Points, which a true Warrior can ignore until the very high Levels. Then there's...DP? What the hell is DP?

into crafting materials only takes a trickle of DP. (To confound you more, some Crafting Recipes actually NEED Raw Aether!) You can accumulate up to three full bars of DP. Once you have a full bar, the same bar will be filled in with a DIFFERENT color for the next Level of DP. (The same way Street Fighter/Streets of Rage did in the old days!)

DP is Divine Points. You start accumulating these as soon as you become a Daeva instead of a "normal" Human. You get a handful of DP for EVERY enemy you kill. Important Distinction: It HAS to be an ENEMY, not just some of those squirrel-looking critters, or the QooQoo chicken-monsters. It has to be something that will fight back, however one-sided the fight might be! You USE DP to: - Turn Aether into raw materials - Perform your most powerful attacks You LOSE DP when: - You - You disconnect - You die Performing a DP attack will drain a whole BAR of DP, while turning Aether

Gladiator Skill List For Levels 1-10, you are "just" a Warrior, so let's start with the Warrior Skills: You start with 11 Skills already:

squatting to do this, so you'll be extra-vulnerable, and it takes about 5 seconds to do. Make sure you're not interrupted in the middle of the process! If you are interrupted, you have a CHANCE of losing one of your Bandages. They're cheap, but that doesn't mean you should WASTE them!

Basic Sword Training

Basic Clothing Proficiency

Guess what this is! Basic Mace Training Clubs, Hammers, and AXES(!) are also considered Maces)

OMG! You can WEAR CLOTHES! Sadly, even if you take off ALL the Armor from your character, you won't be naked...Moving on... Basic Cloth Armor Proficiency

Ferocious Strike I This will be your go-to Skill for pretty much the life of your character, since it recharges faster than the others, AND perhaps more importantly, it's the start of your main damage Chain. Ferocious Strike is an extra-hard swing of your weapon, so hard that it glows red! Return Every 30 minutes, you can teleport to wherever you Bind to. You CANNOT Return during combat. Think of this as your Town Portal Spell, or Hearthstone in WOW.

Cloth Armors look the "prettiest", but you're a WARRIOR, you get by on grit and toughness, not your looks--and Cloth Armor barely protects! Leave that to the Mages and Priests, if you can help it. Of course, this low, you MIGHT fight some Cloth Armor that's better than your starting Armor, so don't be shy about trading up...But try for better Armors ASAP! Basic Leather Armor Proficiency Leather Armor is light and flexible, but you're a Warrior, not a Scout, you need heavier!

Bandage Heal

Basic Chain Armor Proficiency

If you have Bandages, you can use them on yourself to heal. You'll be

Warriors are limited to "only" Chainmail. Excellent protection, but Plate

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide will ALWAYS be better!

(Assuming you use the numbers to activate your Skills) Don't worry, it switches back afterward.

Basic Shield Training As in so many other RPGS, online and off, you can hold a Shield if you're not wielding a Two-Handed weapon. It'll keep you alive longer at the cost of some of your damage. Boost Physical Attack Power I This is a IVE Skill that is always on, boosting your physical attacks by a percentage. For all intents and purposes, this is what defines you as a WARRIOR. Ignore it, as nothing you nor any enemy can do will turn it off, you'll just do more damage than you "should", based on raw weapon stats! Now for the Skills you have to buy later. At Level 3, Robust Blow I and Shield Defense I open up.

Shield Defense I This is a Defensive Toggle. While active, it gives you AMAZING bonuses to your Shield Defense, Stun Resistance, and even reduces incoming damage slightly (10% Physical Defense Bonus, 10 Physical Defense points=1 less point of damage per incoming hit), BUT it presvents you from using your other Skills. Not surprisingly, you have to be wearing a shield for this to work. If you were a Templar, this would be your go-to Skill, but , a GLADIATOR is meant to KILL, not PROTECT! Unless you Gotta Catch'Em All, you can save money by NOT buying this Book. Repeat after me: A Gladiator's best Defense is a quick, deadly OFFENSE! At Level 5, Weakening Severe Blow and Boost HP I open up.

Robust Blow I This is your first "Chain Skill". It only becomes available when you hit with a Ferocious Strike. Robust Blow ALSO makes your weapon glow red, but this time, moving the OPPOSITE direction of Ferocious Strike! Even better, it automatically "replaces" Ferocious Strike when you hit an enemy with Ferocious Strike, so to pull off the Chain, just hit the same number twice!

Weakening Severe Blow Either this game is showing its Korean roots, or a previous Build of the game had a Skill called Weakening Love Tap. Either way, THIS should be your opening move in any combat. It's a direct vertical bottom-to-top swing of your weapon, it lowers the enemy's Physical Defense by 100 for 6 seconds, so the PHYSICAL attacks of you and your allies on that

-148© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide monster will be more likely to hit, AND will hit for an extra 10 points each! If you're in a party, this leads to monsters being shredded FAST! Sadly, this Skill doesn't help Mages in your party, whose attacks are considered Magic Damage--Imagine that! As a BONUS, if you're using a Two-Handed weapon, whether Sword or Polearm, you have a CHANCE of flipping the enemy onto its back, helpless for a few seconds! Don't just use it as an opener, but use it between Chains to KEEP an enemy vulnerable, whether on their back or just with lowered Defenses. Immature players macro this to "Groin Hit!", because against humanoid enemies, it DOES hit them in the groin! Moving on... Boost HP I This is another IVE Skill, like Boost Physical Attack Power I. It increases your MaxHP by 3%, and just as important, your HP Recovery Rate increases by 4. So you have more HP, AND you heal faster. A must-buy...Buy it, learn it, forget about it as it helps keep you alive in the background. At Level 7, Rage I opens up. Rage I This is almost the OPPOSITE of what it sounds like. It SOUNDS like it'd be a bonus to your Attack, and a penalty to

your Defense. Instead, though, it establishes a force-field around you that absorbs the first 98 points of damage, whether from one attack, or a barrage of smaller ones. When hit, it makes a beautiful "honeycomb" pyrotechnic, so it's aesthetically pleasing as well as the visceral smugness of knowing that enemy can't hurt you...YET! BUT it requires you to hit an enemy with Ferocious Strike to become available. You can either click the icon for Rage on your screen, or put it into one of your PowerBar slots. If you choose the latter, just make sure NOT to click it until it's available, as that can waste time, and combat IS time-sensitive! The force-field dissipates in 10 seconds anyways, so go ahead and take it on the chin. 'IMPORTANT NOTE': If you choose Rage, you'll have to wait for your next Ferocious Strike before you can use Robust Blow and the rest of that OTHER branch of the Chain! Decisions, decisions... At Level 9, Shield Counter I and Boost Parry I open up. Shield Counter I If you successfully Block an enemy's incoming hit with your shield, you can smack them in the face with that same shield and Stun them for 3-5 seconds. This Skill ONLY works if you're wearing a shield! If you chose for the first 10 Levels to use a Shield to increase survivability,

-149© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide you'll want this. Otherwise, skip it, and save money.

recommend you save those for Priests. This is automatically part of you when you choose Gladiator for your Ascension!

Boost Parry I This is another ive. And like all ives, it's a must-have. This one boosts your Parry rate: The chance that you'll block an incoming attack with your own weapon. Yes, you're a Gladiator, but Parrying is an important part of swashbuckling, whether with One-Handed or Two-Handed weapons! Now for the part we've all been waiting for, Skills for the Gladiator stage of your life! (After your Ascension) Advanced Sword Training I The "Finer Points" (Painful pun intended) of chopping up an enemy...You can now do more damage with One-Handed Swords. This is automatically part of you when you choose Gladiator for your Ascension! Advanced Dagger Training I You can now do more damage with Daggers--though I don't recommend it. Gladiators don't get any bonuses to Daggers like Scouts/Assassins do. This is automatically part of you when you choose Gladiator for your Ascension!

Advanced Greatsword Training I HASSAN CHOP! Seriously, if you want to hurt an enemy, wield a sword that takes BOTH hands. Enemies will really FEEL it when you hit them with a sword the size of a surfboard! This is automatically part of you when you choose Gladiator for your Ascension! Advanced Polearm Training I Reach out and poke someone! Polearm is arguably the best weapon for a Gladiator. Longer range, but slower, but higher damage and Crit rate than a Greatsword. This is automatically part of you when you choose Gladiator for your Ascension! Advanced Archery Training I Snipe an enemy from afar. Wait, ARCHERY? You're not a Ranger. You CAN equip a Bow now, but it'll take time to switch weapons back and forth, plus arrows take money and take up valuable inventory space...You decide which is a bigger drawback. This is automatically part of you when you choose Gladiator for your Ascension!

Advanced Mace Training I Advanced Leather Armor Proficiency SMASH! Now with precision, as well as authority. Maces may look cool, but I

I

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Leather is OK, but try for better when you can. This is automatically part of you when you choose Gladiator for your Ascension! Advanced Proficiency I

Chainmail

Armor

Chainmail is the old starndard for Armor. Plate's better in most cases. This is automatically part of you when you choose Gladiator for your Ascension! Advanced Shield Training I Cower behind your shield! To maximize survivability, you can use a One-Handed weapon and a Shield. However, this also minimizes your damage. Good if you're trying to be an off-tank for a damage-heavy party. This is automatically part of you when you choose Gladiator for your Ascension!

Herb Treatment I Uses 1 Lesser Odella Powder to heal yourself. Heals about half your HP bar, but uses the same recharge timer as Bandage Heal Buy it for a "cheaper" way to heal yourself, since several Quests give Powder as a reward instead of Bandages. Mana Treatment I Uses 2 Lesser Odella Powders to recharge your Mana. Skip this Skill until you get Skills that actually USE your Mana! Again, prevents you from using Bandage Heal or Herb Treatment Provoke I COME GET SOME! Taunts one target to attack YOU instead of its current victim. Warriors can take the heat, others can't. Take one for the team, or bring SOME fleeing enemies back for second helping of pain!

Advanced Plate Armor Proficiency I THIS is what separates Warrior Classes from the others: The ability to wear Plate for maximum damage-prevention. Wearing Plate, you can survive blows that would cripple or kill even a Chainmail wearer! Getting your first Plate Armor is probably going to feel like a Crowning Moment Of Awesome for you--and it is! This is automatically part of you when you choose Gladiator for your Ascension! Now for the buyable Skills at Level 10:

Ferocious Strike II The icon is PURPLE instead of red, to help tell them apart. Replace Ferocious Strike I on your PowerBar with this version instead. Same Skill, same animation, but higher damage=faster kills! Seismic Wave Whirling DEATH! You need either a Two-Handed Sword, or a Polearm to pull this off, but it's a GREAT animation: You spin around and around, striking each

-151© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide enemy in range up to 4 times--That's right, EACH enemy--this is your first AOE attack! Seismic Wave has a Chain of its own, to be filled out later, but for now, use it as a "filler" when Ferocious Strike and Weakening Severe Blow are still recharging. Be careful when using it in a crowded area, as you might hit monsters you're not ready to fight yet! Winged Strength I Death comes on wings...This is a Quest reward for both sides at different times, but fairly early in your Gladiator career. Your damage output is boosted by 10% while flying--NOT GLIDING! Again, this is ive, so learn it and forget about it. Let it help you invisibly. Explosion of Rage I This is your first DP attack. (See Above) The animation for this is truly AWESOME: You stab your enemy, lift them into the air, shake a little bit, then SLAM them on the ground! The enemy is on the ground for 5 seconds, PLUS Stunned. This attack NEVER misses, but it doesn't do an Instant Kill, which is what I'd expect from its animation. You get this as a "Graduation Present" on both sides. Boost Physical Attack II This is another ive, and given what a Gladiator IS, I'd call it a Must-Buy. A

PERMANENT increase in damage output is just what a Gladiator needs! When you reach Level 13, Aggravation I, Robust Blow II, Aion's Strength I, and Wrathful Strike I open up. Aggravation Apply this, and whenever you hit an enemy, it will cause EXTRA aggro, above and beyond that caused by raw damage. This is a very SITUATIONAL power. If you solo, no need to use this at all. If you are in a good group, enemies should die before you need this, and grouping with a Templar means HE should take the aggro, not you! If, on the other hand, YOU are the toughest member of a party, you'll want this, again, to take the heat off your frailer brethren! Aion's Strength I Pump up! This is a MUST-BUY toggle. While active, you do 15% more damage, and an additional bonus if attacking another PLAYER, rather than monsters! Buy it, learn it, keep it on at all times! (Makes me wonder why they didn't make it a ive? It's easy to forget to turn it back on after you die.) Wrathful Strike I This is your next link in the Ferocious Strike->Robust Blow Chain. Your character jumps up, does a somersault in the air, and SLAMS your weapon down

-152© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide into the head of your enemy. It LOOKS like the blow should split the enemy in half vertically, but this is an RPG, not an 80s cartoon! When you reach Level 16, Weakening Severe Blow II, Rage II, Charge I, and Rupture I open up. Weakening Severe Blow II The color of the icon is subtly different, and this time, the Physical Defense of the enemy is decreased by 200! PLUS, 20 extra damage per hit will happen to the unfortunate enemy, making the shredding even faster! Buy it, learn it, replace Weakening Severe Blow I with this "New&Improved" version! Rage II This is a much thicker shield, again, for 10 seconds. The icon is YELLOW instead of GREEN! Charge I CHAAARGE! This is a much-needed movement-speed buff. It boosts your running and flight speeds by 60 for 10 seconds. It takes FOUR MINUTES to recharge, which prevents you from using it for overland travel, but it WILL help you get into--and out of--trouble quickly! Rupture I In&Out. This is a quick&dirty strike that you can do as the third link in the

Ferocious Strike->Robust Blow Chain. You do only ¾ the damage you would with Wrathful Strike, but it doesn't tie up your character in animations as long, and/or gives you an alternative when Wrathful Strike is still recharging. When you reach Level 19, Shield Counter II, Cleave, and Boost Physical Attack III open up. Shield Counter II IF you use a shield, this does more damage than Shield Counter I. For MOST Gladiators, I recommend skipping it. Again, a shield trades damage for survivability (And if you look above, some Skills can ONLY be used with Two-Handed weapons!) The icon is a little "shinier" than Shield Counter I Cleave I HASSAN CHOP! This is a single mighty SWING of your sword, "With Authority"(TM)! This is the start of yet ANOTHER Chain. Since it's a damage Skill, it's a great filler, when your main Chains (Ferocious Strike->Robust Blow->Wrathful Strike or Ferocious Strike->Robust Blow->Rupture) are offline. Boost Physical Damage III WOW! MORE damage for every swing! This is a MUST-HAVE, since Gladiators are essentially walking DPS.

-153© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide When you finally hit 20, Advanced Dual-Wielding I and Improved Stamina I open up.

Still uses only 1 Odella Powder to heal, and heals a lot more than Herb Treatment I The icon is a darker green.

Advanced Dual-Wielding I

Mana Treatment II

"I am not left-handed!" Dual-Wielding LOOKS cool, but is underpowered for Warriors in this game. Assassins get fair use out of it, but this is a GLADIATOR Guide!

Still uses 2 Odella Powder to recharge your Mana somewhat, recharges more than Mana Treatment I The icon is a darker blue. Again, you can skip this, as you really don't USE Mana!

Improved Stamina I

Provoke II

Is it worth all the pain? This is your first Stigma Skill--It belongs to another Class, but you're able to use it IF you beat a fairly tedious Quest for the privilege! It's a TEMPORARY buff to increase your MaxHP and HP by 20% (Like the City of Heroes Power "Dull Pain"), PLUS it increases your Shield Defense by 150, and your Weapon Defense by 100. The buff lasts 2 minutes, and has a 3 minute recharge time, so it's up to you if it's worth it or not... At 22, you get a MESS of new Skills! Explosion of Rage II This is the Explosion of Rage II. Does MUCH better damage, with the same animation. The icon is a nice, rich maroon. It's your DP Skill, and FINALLY worth using a bar of DP on! Herb Treatment II

Taunts harder than Provoke I. The icon is yellow for this version, and so it's a lot easier to tell it's a finger! Ferocious Strike III Hits harder than the first two. The icon is orange now. Still opens the same chain. Replace the earlier Ferocious Strikes with this one! Crippling Cut I FINALLY, you can take advantage of enemies you knock over! IF an enemy is on its back, you can do some SERIOUS damage with this--almost TRIPLE your other attacks! But it's a STIGMA Skill, so you have to EARN it! Aerial Lockdown I This one is very odd: If you knock a GROUND enemy into the AIR, you can pin--immobilize--it up there! Oh, and it does a little damage.

-154© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Seismic Wave II Does better damage, but you still spin your weapon around 360º, hitting everyone around you 1-4 times each! Still requires a Polearm or Two-Handed Sword! The icon is orange this time. Body Smash I This one lets you totally CRUNCH an enemy with your full bodyweight, and has a satisfying sound and animation. Does pretty good damage too! At Level 25, you get more Skills! Boost Shield Defense I This is a IVE Skill that boosts your abilities to use a Shield. Only useful if you're trying to be an off-tank.

HUGE damage to them and bring them smashing down! Wrathful Strike II This is the upgraded version of Wrathful Strike I. More damage, same animation, knocks the enemy over. Requires Robust Blow and Ferocious Strike to hit first, because it's part of that Chain. The icon is maroon. Winged Rage While flying, your Power and Strength are increased by 10 EACH, and Flight Speed boosted by 33%. This is a IVE Skill, so buy it and reap the benefits without thinking any more about it! Advanced Sword Training II

Robust Blow III As with the others, this is just a stronger version of its predecessor, replace the predecessors with this one. Better damage, and an orange icon. Defense Preparation I This is an ACTIVE toggle Skill, boosting your Defense AND Shield by 250 each, and increases aggro of every attack. You get an EXTRA bonus when defending against other players' attacks!

If you're using Sword and Shield Build, get this, otherwise skip it. Advanced Dagger Training II I don't see WHY anyone but a Scout Class would use a Dagger, but I recommend skipping this one for a Gladiator too! Advanced Mace Training II If you're using a MACE with a Shield, otherwise skip it.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide If you use a Greatsword instead of a Polearm, get this. Otherwise, skip it. Advanced Polearm Training II If you use a Polearm--which Gladiator should--GET THIS!

a

Advanced Archery Training Um, no, just NO. You're not a Ranger, you don't need this, and you don't need arrows cluttering up your inventory. At Level 28, you get more and better Skills yet!

A better version of Crippling Cut I, the icon is darker, the damage is heavier. Still requires the enemy to be knocked on its back. And it's a Stigma Skill! Rupture II The icon is purple, the damage is heavier.

Vengeful Strike I

Ankle Snare I

If you get a successful Parry against an enemy attack, this move becomes available, for a good hit of bonus damage! Boost Physical Attack IV This is a IVE Skill, and since it boosts your attack powers, it's a DEFINITE must-have! Buy it, forget about it, reap the rewards! Weakening Severe Blow III This is the next generation of Weakening Severe Blow. Lowers enemy Physical Defense by 300 for 6 seconds, and for the duration, every physical hit on that enemy will inflict 30 extra damage! The icon is "orange" closer to brown.

Immobilize ONE target for 10 seconds and drop its Evasion by 1,000! It's a Stigma Skill, but it's amazing. In PVE, it renders one enemy COMPLETELY defenseless for awhile--BUT that immobilized enemy can still hit YOU too. Shock Wave I This is the second move in Seismic Wave's Chain. Another spin-attack, hits everyone in range. Requires a successful Seismic Wave to activate. Seismic Billow I FINALLY, you get the third move in Seismic Wave's Chain. Billow is basically a higher, faster, nastier Seismic Wave, and requires a successful Seismic Wave AND Shock Wave to be pulled off FIRST.

-156© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Level 31 is almost a letdown, you only get 3 Skills: Shield Counter III, Lockdown I, and Reckless Strike I

Provoke III Causes even MORE aggro than before, and the icon is yellow.

Shield Counter III Ferocious Strike IV You bash the enemy with your Shield, but you NEED a Shield to use this...Only viable in your off-tank Build. The icon is shining brighter, the damage is higher.

Your go-to Skill's latest incarnation, higher damage than ever! The icon is yellow this time. Crippling Cut III

Lockdown I This inflicts minor damage on an enemy, but more importantly, stops them from doing ANYTHING for 3 seconds! The bad news is, it's a Stigma Skill... Reckless Strike I This is the FOURTH Skill in Ferocious Strike's Chain. Needs Ferocious Strike, and Rupture to land on the enemy before you can use this. Basically, this Chain will be your premiere damager! At Level 34, you gain lots more! Herb Treatment III Heals more than before, but requires a Greater Odella Powder to work. The icon is slightly blue-tinted, making it turquoise.

Stab the enemy while he's down--now stabbing harder than ever! It's still a Stigma Skill. The icon is orange. Seismic Wave III The latest and greatest incarnation of your first AOE attack, now with an orange icon. Stamina Recovery I This is a Self-Heal Over Time. Restores your HP every 6 seconds for a full minute. You will use a little Mana, regain almost 1200 HP total--WITHOUT using a Life Potion! Aerial Lockdown II Does more damage before pinning your enemy in midair. The icon is red this time. Body Smash II

Mana Treatment III This requires Greater Odella Powder to work, but since Warriors don't need Mana, you can skip this one.

This is a GREAT attack, no Chain abilities, but even better damage now! The icon is red this time.

-157© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide Boost HP II

Unwavering Devotion I

This is a MUST-HAVE ive! More HP allows you to take more punishment before you die, and lets you take--or give--a few more hits before needing a Potion. Especially useful if you don't want to break up a Chain! This one increases your MaxHP by 6%, and your Health Recovery by 10!

Increases Stun, Spin, Midair Bind Resistances by 1000 for 1.5 minutes. It's a Stigma Skill, but status protection is worth it, both in PVE and PVP! Lockdown II Inflicts slightly more damage than Lockdown I, but the target is still only Bound for 3 seconds. The icon is yellow.

At Level 37, it gets better! Crashing Blow II

Boost Knockdown I This is a ive that makes your Knockdowns harder, so you can knock over bigger, more stalwart monsters (Or players). An enemy flat on its back is not only vulnerable to certain Skills, but just as importantly, can't hit you back! Buy and forget, like all other ives. Robust Blow IV The latest and greatest version of Robust Blow. Requires Ferocious Strike to hit before you can use it, as it's part of that Chain. The icon is darker, making the lines show up better.

A better version of Crashing Blow I, it does more damage when knocking down an enemy you have previously hit with Aerial Lockdown The icon is slightly lighter than Crashing Blow I Pressure Wave I Another roundhouse attack, requires Seismic Wave to hit to activate, as it's an alternate second in the Chain. Use this one when Shock Wave is still recharging. When you get to 40, you get a truly AMAZING attack--plus some other Skills/upgrades.

Wrathful Strike III

Wrathful Wave I

The latest of the Wrathful Strike line. More damage, knocks the enemy down. Requires Robust Blow and Ferocious Strike to hit first, because it's part of that Chain. The icon is darker, making the lines show up better.

The icon for this one is a tsunami, and it lives up to that. This is a WIDE AOE, that does nearly TWICE the damage of any other attack, BUT because it IS almost 3X as wide, you need to be careful where you use it, lest you bring down the wrath of too

does 4,000 damage to Castle Gates! (As part of the Siege PVP mechanic) You'll want this Skill if you do any serious Sieging.

Vengeful Strike III More damage as an optional bonus attack when you Parry an enemy's attack! The icon is orange this time. Determination I If your HP falls below 10%, you have a CHANCE of Stunning the enemy with every hit. Think of this as a ive version of a Limit Break. The only question is, are you willing to risk your life, staying at 10% Health? Do you feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

Rupture III The same alternate Chain Skill, now in a more powerful incarnation. Requires Ferocious Strike and Robust Blow to land before it becomes available. The icon is purple this time. Seismic Billow II The next step up for the third part of the AOE Chain. Requires Seismic Wave and Shock Wave before it becomes available. The icon is a coppery brown.

Rage IV

Crippling Cut IV

A thicker Shield than its previous iterations. The icon is a rich Lincoln Green this time.

The latest and greatest way to kick your enemy while it's down. It's a Sigma Skill. The icon is gold(?) this time.

Weakening Severe Blow IV

Advanced Sword Training III

As always, it does minor damage, but the true power is that it lowers enemy Physical Defense by 400 for 6 seconds, and all PHYSICAL attacks on that enemy will do 40 extra points of damage! The icon is a darker yellow.

Take this ONLY if you're using a One-Handed Sword and Shield. (Tanking Build) Advanced Dagger Training III Skip this. Silly Gladiator, Daggers are for Assassins!

SiegeBreaker I This is a Stigma Skill, and arguably the most situational Skill in the game. It does utterly pathetic damage normally, but it

Advanced Archery Training III Skip this, leave bows to the Rangers!

At Level 42, you ONLY get Force Cleave I

Shock Wave II

Force Cleave I

The next generation of the second step in the Seismic Wave Chain. The icon is coppery-orange. Great Cleave I YAY! You finally have the second step in Cleave Chain! Requires Cleave to hit to become available. Righteous Cleave I

This is an alternative to Great Cleave. It takes the second spot in Cleave Chain too, but you can't use Righteous Cleave afterward. HOWEVER, Force Cleave, in addition to doing damage, has a good chance to decrease the enemy's Move Speed for 8 seconds! Good if you're fighting something that likes to run away--like another player, perhaps? Great to have options!

The third step in the Cleave Chain. At Level 43, you get Lockdown III and Reckless Strike II

Advanced Dual Wielding II Take this only if you want to Dual Wield. LOOKS cool, but suffers on damage. At Level 41, you get Aggravation II and Shield Counter IV

Lockdown III Even MORE damage than Lockdown II, but still only Binds the enemy for 3 seconds. Still, that's 3 seconds when it can't fight back! The icon is copper-colored.

Enhancements: +Dmg, +Crit Rate For PVE killing, use either a Polearm (For reach), or a 2-Handed Sword (Only advised if there's something TRULY special about your sword, since Polearms have more damage and longer range, and aren't THAT much slower than a 2-Handed Sword!) 2.

Farming Ironically, the best way to farm in Aion, for both EXP AND money is...LITERALLY FARMING! All players start with Harvesting Skill, which is about the same as its WOW counterpart. Picking herbs gives you 50 EXP PER SUCCESSFUL PICKING! The Harvesting mechanic here is strange enough to deserve special mention. When you Harvest, the Failure bar is based on time, and every so often, your Success bar will increment. If your Harvest Skill is higher than necessary, your Success Bar will LEAP forward faster than normal--Sometimes you'll even jump from 0-100% INSTANTLY!

noting that some of the Ore deposits and Herb patches are "booby trapped", namely, they spawn enemies as soon as you finish harvesting to discourage THAT kind of farming and force the "normal" RPG farming! Sadly, they fixed the clipping errors that spawned land enemies in midair...That was funny! Lepharists are the best to farm, and Viragos are simply NOT worth killing, too much trouble for too little rewards!

The easiest herb is Aria, which looks like psychidelic pink wheat. Minimum Harvest Skill is 1! Next easiest is Mela, essentially magic crabapples. Minimum Harvest Skill is 10. You cannot eat them, but they're crafting ingredients. When you're in the Worg area or beyond, look for dark blue/black outcroppings to harvest. These are Iron Ore, which requires a Harvest Skill of 15. There are others, basically anything that your cursor turns into a blue hand instead of aroow. Kill humanoid enemies, Harvest Herbs and Ores whenever possible. It's worth

PvP Strategies AION'S Positional System: Charging ahead increases attack and lowers Defense temporarily, pulling back does exactly the opposite. Don't let yourself get kited, because their Defense will be raised, yours lowered! to circle-strafe your victims when possible, this will make your character MUCH better at Dodging/Parrying, WITHOUT any real penalties to Offense or Defense stats.

PvP as a Gladiator Gladiators kind of pay a price in PVP for their simplicity. To put it bluntly, you're a brick of SUSTAINED DPS, in a world where Burst Damage is king (I.e., you want to KILL an enemy, before he or his teammates can heal him!) You also have NO Crowd Control, other than the CHANCE to knock an enemy down with your Skills and/or Crits. Three of your Skills have a better chance of knockdown than most: Shock Wave, Seismic Billow, and Wrathful Strike. Naturally, these three will be your best friend, but they also have fairly long recharge time.

Shock Wave and Seismic Billow are the second and third part of the Seismic Wave Chain, and Wrathful Strike is the third part of the Ferocious Strike->Robust Blow Chain. You can't keep your distance, because you are a melee artist. Still, your damage, although not as flashy as the other Classes, can make the difference between an enemy living or dying. More importantly, if you can close the distance with Stealth-able enemy players and/or Spellcasters, you can prevent them from casting or recloaking! Hopefully, you have a group that realizes concentration of firepower on ONE victim is everything! Since this game's only "penalty" for taking too much damage is that you can't run or fly anymore, an enemy with 1 HP left is as dangerous as an enemy with full health. Alternately, you could phrase it that killing ONE enemy is better than just wounding any number of enemies!

Recommended PvP Stigmas Just hit Control-F, so far the only Stigmas implemented are the ones through the Quests. You can hit Control-F and look up the Stigma Quests. Again, Dual Wield Stigma is NOT RECOMMENDED for a Gladiator. If you want to Dual Wield, make an Assassin.

surreal square-dance), and of course, +Physical Crit. Crits not only boost damage, they are a guaranteed Interrupt of enemy Skills/Spells, and knock the enemy over! For Polearm DROPS, the best one, bar none, is Tahabata's spear. This comes from the Dark Poeta instance, the enemy named Tahabata Pyrelord, who is in any metric, the hardest Boss in the game!

PvP Gearing & Enhancements

If you can't get your hands on that, get the Anuhart Elite Spear (Also from Dark Poeta, but from lesser enemies), or Archon Tribunus/BlackHeart Spear. The latter two are Abyss Items, bought with Abyss Points.

Get the BEST Armor you can, preferably Crafted ones and/or ones bought with Abyss Points, but if you can't afford that, just kill the biggest monsters you can, and get armor/weapons that way. Again, a Gladiator is for all-out offense, so get the biggest, best Polearm you can find. Amping them up with Enchantment Stones is a MUST. Obviously, Enchantment Stones are highly luck-based, and the chances of getting it up to +10 are 1 in 1,024! For Manastones, pack in +HP, +Accuracy for those annoying players who packed +Evasion (And because you'll probably be circle-strafing each other like some

For Armor, a lot of players like the Fenril's Set (Yes, that's right, Set Items, like Diablo II, if you get the complete set, you get bonuses above and beyond the sum of their parts), because it can make you pretty tough. However, since a Gladiator is meant to ATTACK, not DEFEND--and because Fenril's Set is Asmodian ONLY--the best is the Anuhart Gladiator Set, which boosts Physical Attack, but more importantly, boosts Physical Crit! The Anuhart Set ALSO drops from various enemies in Dark Poeta, and is Class-specific! If you don't have a good Raid Alliance, then you won't find anything but death in Dark Poeta. In that case, buy the Archon Tribunus Armor with your Abyss Points. , Armor is

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide not just Breastplate, it also includes Gauntlets, Plate Pauldrons, Plate Greaves, and Plate Boots. There's a reason I keep saying Plate, Plate, Plate: Plate has the highest Damage Resistance in the game, and it's EXCLUSIVE to Warrior Classes (Gladiator and Templar). If you got it, flaunt it, and Plate will keep you alive longer than Chain, Leather, or especially Cloth! For Belt, get Archon Tribunus's Leather Belt. I know the stats aren't as good as Anuhart Brigade General's Leather Waist Band, but it adds 2% EXTRA damage in PVP. Because I've been too subtle about it in the rest of this Guide, Gladiators are more about damage than survivability! However, Archon Tribunus's Leather Belt is an Abyss Points item, and VERY expensive, for a Belt, so it might actually be cheaper to get the Anuhart Brigade General version, if you have a good Alliance! For Earrings, get Diamond Earrings.

Ancient

Spirit

For a Necklace, try for the Dragon Flame Diamond Necklace from Tahabata PyreLord, or slightly less, the Ancient Spirit's Diamond Necklace, dropped by Unstable Triroans in Theobomos Lab. Although not as hard as the Tahabata monsters, good luck killing them, even WITH a group! If you can't kill those, spend more Abyss Points for Archon Tribunus's Ruby Necklace. For Rings, try for the Ancient Spirit Diamond Ring from Wistful Syripne. Hint: To find the monster that carries it, use /pathfinding Wistful Syripne Again, although not as hard as the Tahabata monsters, good luck killing them, even WITH a group! If you can't kill those, spend more Abyss Points for Archon Tribunus's Ruby Rings. Don't forget Wing Armors! For Elyos, the best is Nestor's Wing Feather. To get that, you need to finish a special Quest, called Project DrakanHammer - Go to Sanctum and talk with Nestor.

Hint: To find the monster that carries it, use /pathfinding Test Water Spirit Undine A lot of people forget that "Test"! If you can't get your hands on those, then Archon Tribunus's Ruby Earrings make a distant second.

Enchantment Level, if it's the same exact gear. Also important are how well each of you circle-strafes the other, and your lag! Luck also plays a part, in that every Crit either of you scores knocks the other on the ground for awhile--and you have a few Skills that are DESIGNED to knock enemies on their ass! Ranger

The Gladiator vs. PVP in AION is balanced by TEAMS. Individuals of one Class can and WILL curbstomp another. That forces people to focus on strategy, trying to get an opening to attack the one who is weak against your character. Think of it as an 8-way Rock-Paper-Scissors game. Templars More or less, forget it, they're tougher than you are, they're DESIGNED to take hits, so all you can really do against a Templar is "keep him busy" in hopes that an Assassin can score a few good hits from behind him. , the Templar might be doing the same thing to YOU! Templar is the designated Tank Class, and that's pretty much what a Tank does! Gladiator

If you can close the distance, they're all but dead. If you're too far away, YOU are dead instead. Rangers have Snare and Root Skills, as well as SHOCKINGLY high DPS from range, but their melee skills are laughable at best. Your worst nightmare is someone sniping you from an unseen position. HIS worst nightmare is a melee juggernaut sticking to him like glue and not letting him get a shot off--literally! Still, because of that range thing, better to leave Rangers for Assassins to kill, or wait for him to be distracted. Rangers' Stealth is finally fixed, so until they attack, you won't be able to see them. Nothing more obnoxious than a sniper you can't see! Beware if the Ranger seems to be leading you in a particular direction. Most likely, he has laid some Traps. While they're not 100% reliable in PVP, they can be QUITE damaging if you trigger one! Assassin

Evenly matched, the difference in the fight will be your gear, and its

-168© www.killerguides.com All rights reserved.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide These guy are tricky. Don't let one get behind you, and worse, they can go Stealth at a moment's notice, but are brought out of Stealth by ANY combat action, INCLUDING getting hit by AOE (I.e., your Seismic series Skills, which can be fired off even WITHOUT a target!). That's the best way to deal with one, if you don't have an Assassin or Ranger of your own to make them visible again. If the Assassin is an amateur, you can get him in front of you, where his damage is greatly reduced. Assassins have higher damage output than you, but ONLY from behind, and they don't have the HP to back it up! Assassins' main strength is their ability to become Invisible at will. But as long as you can keep up the damage, he can't recloak! Sorcerer Sorcerors are HUGE damage, no HP, and heavily dependent on Potions to replace their Mana. You are moderate damage, moderate HP, and can randomly interrupt enemy Spells with a hit from your weapon. Caution: Not EVERY hit interrupts! Again, if you can get close, you can really rip them up, BUT they're more likely to pull an Ice Spell on you, and make you the designated pinata for every enemy in the area for a few seconds.

Spirit Master These ones are confusing, because they're THREE enemies in one! They can summon Elemental pets, and THOSE are much more durable than the SpiritMaster himself. SpiritMasters' magic is centered on debuffing and messing with your movement, plus, they have an annoying Fear Spell, that will MAKE your character--and your teammates--run away! The main confusion, of course, is whether to attack the pets, which can be infinitely re-Summoned, or to attack the SpiritMaster himself, who is weaker, but the pets can wail on you from behind! I recommend killing the SpiritMaster first, to prevent him from buffing the pets, his teammates, or DEBUFFING you or your teammates. As a bonus, when you kill the SpiritMaster, all the Elementals die too! They can't dish out as much direct damage, which, if the other player is anything less than an expert, is his fatal flaw: You can just outdamage him! , your Provoke Skill will force him to fight YOU, instead of any of your teammates, AND will prevent him buffing any enemies. The downside is, of course, he is free to wail on YOU with all his Spells! As with all Spellcasters, each of your attacks have a CHANCE of interrupting his Spells. Caution: Not EVERY hit interrupts!

Not as frail as a Sorceror, but low-damage, because they're geared toward HEALING--and that's the fatal flaw: Provoke him, and he can't target anyone but you, thus preventing him from healing himself or an enemy! Shrug off his Spells, charge in, wail on him!

Caution: Not EVERY hit interrupts! Double Caution: AURAS ARE NOT NORMAL SPELLS! They are MUCH harder to interrupt! While they CAN be interrupted, they are ONLY RELIABLY INTERRUPTED BY DEATH!

As with all Spellcasters, each of your attacks have a CHANCE of interrupting his Spells. Caution: Not EVERY hit interrupts! Chanter In PVE, these guys are annoyingly close to a One-Man Party. Their buffs are Aura-based, so any of the Chanters' teammates have but to stand close to get the benefits. It's VERY HARD to interrupt an Aura, and once activated, they're always on until "interrupted". Their Heals are weaker than a Cleric, but the Chanter himself is tougher! Use Provoke to prevent him from healing himself, then trade blows, and hope that his teammates don't interfere. As a bonus, DEATH "interrupts" ALL the Chanter's Auras, making his teammates SUBSTANTIALLY weaker! As with all Spellcasters, each of your attacks have a CHANCE of interrupting his Spells.

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide wait-time! , all a Gladiator IS is a walking brick of DPS, therefore anything that RAISES your DPS is good, and anything that LOWERS it is bad, but it's up to you how automated you want your gaming experience to be, and/or how much you want to pay attention to every detail for maximum gains. As with most RPGS, you'll get out of it proportional to what you put INTO it! In addition to using Macros, if you're in a Party, to use the Brand system and mark which enemies to attack in which order, and more importantly, if you have anyone with Sleep or Freeze, mark which enemy is to be Slept/Frozen and "saved for last". Teamwork is much more powerful than automation, at least in this game!

The Unofficial Aion Gladiator Guide

Kinah making strategy Kill humanoid enemies, harvest Herbs and Ores whenever possible. It's worth noting that some of the Ore deposits and Herb patches are "booby trapped", namely, they spawn enemies as soon as you finish harvesting to discourage THAT kind of farming and force the "normal" RPG farming! Sadly, they fixed the clipping errors that spawned land enemies in midair...That was funny! Lepharists are the best to farm, and Viragos are simply NOT worth killing, too much trouble for too little rewards! Sell whatever you don't need--Aion actually has a button called "Sell Misc. Items" which will AUTOMATICALLY mark all useless items to sell! Click the Sell button to finalize the deal. Note that this will NOT sell crafting items, nor items you've outgrown, nor even "Useless" items that are part of a Quest, so go ahead and use it without trepidation! Gray Quality items are "Useless" (Torn/Ripped/Broken, or just bodyparts of monsters) White Quality items are "Normal" (No special qualities, but Crafted or Named ones can be worth something...) Green Quality items are

"Rare" (Extra stats or some mild enchantment.) Azure Quality items are "Legendary" (Amazing stats, higher than Rare!) Orange Quality items are "Unique" (Phenomenal relics that will change the course of a character's life, let alone battles!) With that in mind, why would anyone collect Gray items? Because they STACK! You can have up to 100 of a given item in ONE inventory-slot--that would be some SERIOUS grinding! Approximately 10 Gray items make the value of a White name item. (The stack-limit will soon be increased to 1,000!) Also, take advantage of the Brokers (Aion's version of Auction House): Selling Herbs and Ores to other players can sometimes be many times more profitable than to the NPC Vendors, and for Manastones, they don't even pay enough to justify dragging the item to the sell area, but other PLAYERS might offer more! (Not counting the Manastone Quests for each side, see above) Other players will pay a MINT for Green Quality or better items--and even some of the better White Quality items! (I.e., ones you make yourself, Mana Potions, etc.)
