10% godstones.

I doubt they'd just remove them but I'd be cool with 5% godstones.

 

It was removed before the game got officially released

 

No, they were just never on Retail.

 

i agree here, 10% gs only benefit rangers and sins at most as sorc i hardly see the dam gs proc and sm is even worse .. got a 10% blind and i seen it once a week lol when a sin proc thiers in just 3-5 hits on u and over 10 times in a fight if u prolong it by kiting him, got a paralize on my sorc's book which i always use and i seen it 3 times in 3 months LOL yet a ranger manages to proc it every now and then.

 

10% Godstones make pvp more about luck. I say make em all 5%.

 

I don t see much luck in proccing 10% gs ... I simply know it would procc ( almost ) every fight ...

 

By luck I mean how much silence or blind proc's I know they proc in every fight (bugged of you ask me) but people who land their blind 4 times instead of the other guy landing it 1 or even 0 times just won purely because of luck.

 

i beg to differ , i did like 20 rounds aganst my sin friend on full mac anda i got LUCKY he didnt proc the gs in 2 duels so i won those lol but yeah for a glad or a temp to proc 4 times its super luck tho i do seen ppl do that in every duel and reported them to gms at the end they dun get punished so i stoped reporting.

 

my 10% silence on my Spear Procs Close To Every 5 or 6 hits

 

well.. on a group pvp
with an assassin, 1 sm 1 sorc and 1 cleric
u have like 45% to get godstoned in less than 1 sec

seems op ever ''oper'' when u play in group

 

If they weren't overpowered, then 90%+ of the high end players wouldn't be using them. The proc changes of 10% God stones are far too frequently, and thus shift the landscape of PvP battles way to much.

I've been in fights to where multiple individuals with Silence God stones attacking me and having them literally proc to the point that I couldn't even use a single skill to save myself. 1v1 its already very problematic because having one has to remember that if its successful twice, that's already 20 seconds in which you the player will be hindered from being able to use any skills.

If it lands 3 times, that's 30 seconds! Now imagine 3 individuals with 10% silence God stones? The success rate goes higher in these scenarios. They are without a doubt overpowered and dictate too greatly into the outcome of PvP fights.

As for a way to removing them, I wouldn't know how, because players have already donated for them. Possibly compensating them for it would be more valid, however without a proper record of donators it would be next to impossible. I've voted and used my credits for two such God stones, and if they were to be removed without any compensation, I would be perfectly fine with that for the better PvP, however I'm sure most would not be in agreement with my statement.

 

I was waiting from a staff's opinion on this.
It would be nice if they removed those noob 10% gs.
they ruined a lot of things which are working but they keep something like this which clearly ruins gameplay.

 

BTW, those godstones are NOT available in retail Aion for a reason . But all in all? It's up to the game devs and the GM/AM's to decide on whether or not they should make the whole "pay for power" thing available. But long story short, being disabled for a long period of time is not fun.

 

Definetly. Even putting 5% in shop and unobtainable in game or something would be better than having 10%'s available, means ppl will still want the stones and so buy them.

10% stones also support the zerg, if you are 15 v 5, chances are you or your cleric are gonna get multiple godstone procc'd by zergers with 10% stones. Same for even 3v1, you could be winning 1 minute, pot a silence then get owned by a 10% proc and unlucky. (5% it may happen too, but not as often).

 

Why is this issue only being raised now and not before?

 

It has been brought up many times before, but has always been pushed away.

So it might as well be closed now that I think about it.

 

If you want to lol a bit:
- Ask sorc with 20% 94/188 water damage godstone to autoattack dummy 100 times
- Ask sin with 2x 10% silence/blind to autoattack dummy 100 times
You can lol now.

( For me it was: 20% gave 11 procs, 2x10% gave 32 procs )

 

I guess I just missed those threads then.
