aion-ranger

Most players, roll a ranger class because they like fighting at a distance. The ranger brings quiet a few skills in its arsenal to enable them to succeed at fighting in this manner. These are excellence at using the bow, able to shoot while running and the use of snares and traps, However, it's main disadvantage is their fragile amour, though partially mitigated with evasion. So distance is important, and keeping that distance up is the secret of the Rangers combat advantage.

Keeping Opponents at a Distance

Kiting is a mmorpg term used to describe the ability to keep the enemies at a distance, while still being able to attack them.

aion-assassinAion Assassin PvP is highly suited to the solo player, as they are the least reliable on being in a group to be effective in PvP. Aion Assassin, like many rouge type classes in mmorpgs can sneak around without being seen, and striking the victim when they least expect it. So running around in a group, announcing your presence is not very beneficial to the style of gameplay of Assassins. Most Assassins who do group, tend to form groups with other Assassins.

If done correctly, Assassins can obliterate some classes very quickly, especially Clerics and Chanters. So if Assassins are in a large scale battle, these are the classes they should be killing first. Clerics taken out early on, can turn the tide of battles, since after losing the healers, the remaining enemy classes will fall very quickly.

To be a great at Assassin PvP, you need to know the three main advantages of Assassins. These are stealth, stuns and damage. Stealth is somewhat obvious capability, though it's is not as overpowered as in other games, since it can only last up to 50s and has a 1 minute cooldown. But is it still good enough to orchestrate a well planned ambush. However, watch out for other Assassins in the area, as they can see you, unlike other the other Aion classes.

The Death Knight Advantage


death-knightThe Wraith of the Lich King introduced a new class in addition to the new content and higher levels, the Death Knight. Both Alliance and Horde players can create a Death Knight, as long the player already has a level 55 or higher character. The Death Knight starts at level 55 with a full set of green equipment.

The Death Knight is considered by blizzard to be a hero class. There is little information on what this actually means in direct comparison to the other classes, though many players consider this to mean that Death Knights are meant to be more powerful than the standard non-hero. This obviously causes concern for balancing in PvP (player v player) encounters.
