Hi All,

Both my Husband and I are Ex-WOW and GW players. We played GW for about 2 years and then left to play WOW, which we played for about 4 years. But now all of that is behind us now. We are dedicated to AION. I know that this site is for South African players..... So HOWZIT guys. We are both ex-Durbanites but now we live in the UK, been living here since 1997 and this place sucks..... Sad

Anyway, I am rolling a Elyos Chanter coz I think they are awesome and my Husband is rolling a Elyos Cleric. Not sure what legion we are going to join as yet and as for names, I have a few picked out. Just waiting for NCSoft to announce OB eagerly, as I am sure everybody else is as well. We have to boys aged 26 and 22 and hopefully both will also start characters in AION, they are also ex-WOW but as with us, they got bored with it.

Just thought I would pop in and say Hello to fellow SA peeps.

Sorry that this post is so long..... lol.

Hey guys,
Believe it or not I only found out about this game today, and i've been tickled pink by it. So I know ABSOLUTELY nothing about it, but I wanna give it a try.
I've been a Wow player / addict for the last 4.5 years. Staying in Jnb Alberton atm.
Looking forward to getting to know you all and having some fun !

Holla

I was a heavy WOW player, 26 and living in Durban.
I am super keen to start playing Aion, gonna roll with Elyos but have no idea what class yet.

I will be downloading the 1.5 Patch when it is available, so there will be a copy in Durban.

Later

Erm...I'm on the Prophecy forums and in the PH Wow guild and an American guildie asked about this game. So I remembered seeing a thread on the PH forums bout this so I Googled Aion.

When I read thru the PH forums I saw a link from Amphitheatre(sp) about this site and spoke to Wyvern (also on the PH forums) and she recommended I come check it out here.

Is there anyone in the JNB area that I can get a copy of this from, or can it only be bought? I honestly don't have enough info about the game yet to decide about classes or factions yet, but I know I like what I've seen so far !

We should actually have a sticky for the new guys. Telling them what the game is all about where to get it, Beta information, Legion names and how to join, you know all the essential stuff... can be a point of reference for the already joined members too...

would do it but im seeing all in numbers today... damn you payroll daaaamn you!

*yawn+wakes up*
Lo
*groggy eyed*
I'm from CT... *sips coffee*

One of my EvE corpmates tempted me with Aion, so I have been doing research on it the past 2 days and so far me likes Smile

Just a shame that I only found out after the OB =( Also can't seem to find a place that has a CE edition available (I hope take2 gets some)

Nways, I'm 21, currently playing EvE, played WoW on+off since USA release, played Gwars since OB - on+off and finally stopped after EOTN, played RO, Rappelz, Cabal, AOC and prolly a few others.. *sips coffee*

From what I've seen is that as per WoW, I will most likely make a char of everyclass to see how they play, learn the class and then finally settle down in my normal ranger char playstyle. Seems Aion will be giving me what Gwars did and allow me to melee and range as a ranger (a big plus)

Looking towards sewing, handicraft, alchemy, cooking and likely weaponsmithing - don't know what I will master yet...

Def looking to be Asmodian:) black wings ftw
