NCSoft has a bunch of new things planned for the North American version of Aion with the release of the Wrath of the Storm update next week. The update will introduce a handful of new instances along with adjustments to existing ones, and improvements to the leveling curve.

Wrath of the Storm is set to roll out on September 28th and will open up three new dungeons: the Araka, Unyielding Beshmundir Temple, and Abyssal Splinter. The update will also revamp the Nochsana Training Camp and Steel Rake and turn them into solo dungeons to give lone wolves more leveling options.

On the subject of leveling, XP gains will also be increased for mission quests, and level 51+ missions, while missions for players level 50 and below will be getting an overhaul. Level requirements for below 50 missions will also adjusted. Players will also be getting access to a new gear set loadout feature that will make it easier to swap out their gear on the fly to adapt to battle conditions.

Aion NA will also be getting a new arena ranking system that will award the top 50 arena players with corresponding badges as they work their way up the leaderboard, starting from Bronze and all the way up to Platinum, Diamond, and Master for the top three players.

Wrath of the Storm arrives on September 28th. In the meantime, you can check out a preview of the update’s contents on the Aion official site.
