Aion Classic EU Unveils Rise Of The Revenant Update Featuring A New Class And Region
Gameforge is cooking up a big update for the EU version of Aion Classic that should bring it closer to par with its NA counterpart. Update 2.7: Rise of the Revenant will open the gates to the new starting region of Telos and introduce a new Classic-exclusive class called the Revenant. Lorewise, Revenants are former Daeva soldiers that were captured and brainwashed by Tiamat’s Legion but have regained their autonomy and are now looking for payback.
Telos will exclusively be available to new players and those who complete the pre-requisite quests to become Revenants. Revenants, however, won’t be able to complete certain questlines in certain towns and cities, including Ishalgen, Altgard, Poeta, and Verteron.
Update 2.7 will also introduce two new instances – Sunken Telos and Red Throne: Telos – along with new gameplay systems like The Book of Legends and the Moreth, Chronicle of Time.
“The Book of Legends system is completed by collecting items through adventures in Atreia, with special rewards obtained after completion,” Gameforge explains. “This can be done on a character-by-character basis. The Moreth, Chronicle of Time system is for characters above level 50. Points for leveling up the system are obtained by recording items, with 50 being the maximum level the system can reach. A PvE skill can be received in reward which deals more damage against Balaur, with the damage increasing the higher the Moreth level.”
A release date for the Update 2.7 has yet to be announced, but you can catch a preview of its contents in the new trailer below.
