elyos templar here, 20, almost 21. atm i got quests coming out of my hears and they are all the start of big chains. so i dont think ill have much problems with the 20-25 range. maybe it will change, i dont know whats ahead cause its all new, so i'll have to wait and see, but so far i have no reasons to believe i will ever run out of quests.

Level 24 Elyos Cleric here and I am having a blast.  PvP, tons of quests (TONS), crafting, etc --  I think it might be time for people who dont even play AION to stop making alternate accounts on this site and posting lies about the game.  AGAIN I AM LEVEL 24 AND THROUGHOUT 1-24 i CANT EVEN KEEP UP WITH ALL THE QUESTS -- STOP LYING.

Also elyos close to 20, what are the big chains you're starting ? I guess you've done the Krall quest in Verteron ? Are you starting the chains in Eltnen, i've got a quest for there not long ago !

On Asmodian side, I ran out of quests at level 13. Thankfully, I was only about a half level away from 14 and the grind wasn't as bad that early. Later on, I ran out of quests at level 21. Or rather I didn't run out but had mostly gathering quests so I went back, leveled up both aether and vitality gathering to 100, which took me about 2 days of casual grinding, did all of the gathering quests and managed to get to 23. I didn't count the repeat quests, because I don't consider them content and because they offer very little XP.

The quests are there but they aren't as numerous as some of you make them out to be.

ok now i know you are full of shit, i have a asmodian alt at lvl 16, and i never even 'almost' ran out of quests in the 16 levels. also play a sorcerer. i dont kill mobs on the way, only what i need for quests, no grinding done, just quests and never came close to run out. either your making stuff up or you just didnt notice the big blue marks on npc's heads.

I'm in my 30s and my quest log is full.  In fact I've been focusing on clearing it up because the damned quest items are taking up too much of my inventory space.  But then again I don't run from quest to quest and do nothing in between.  Grind a little, quest a little, craft a little, pvp a little, gather a little.  I'm not having a problem with a lack of quests.

What ends up happening later on (pretty soon for you) is that quests become nearly worthless compared to grinding. Top that off with the rewards being nearly worthless, and the game really becomes a grind.

 

I would say, get 6 or 7 more levels and you will start to feel it. I left at level 36 not only because it was a grind at that level, but because I knew it was about to get exponentially worse.

20-25 went pretty fast, mostly because I ground out the levels in Theo while farming for kinah to lvl up my crafting. Since I was farming for kinah I didn't mind the grind.

After hitting 25 I hit up Eltnen and had all the quests at my disposal; this took me to 28 very fast. I have since gone back to another game but intend on coming back to Aion down the road.

 

Good luck in your leveling quest!

I'll tell you exactly when I ran out of quests, once on my assassin and once on my spiritmaster. Right as you get into Basfelt Village, you get a few quests but they are not enough to get you all the way to 14 and the next batch of quests start at level 14. So you have to do some grinding.

If you haven't experienced it, it doesn't mean a thing to me because using your own words, I know that you're full of shit because you're claiming that you never ran out of quests and I did twice. See how that works?

I'm far from QQing. As a matter of fact, I'm laughing at the blind fanaticism on these boards.

My original reply, before you came in throwing around insults, was to show that there are instances where people do run out of quests. Personally, I don't mind a little grinding. As a matter of fact, I enjoy it every once in a while--it has a calming effect on me.

Now, if you're done trolling, maybe we can get back to the discussion at hand.

I cant speak on Asmo from experience, but I find it hard to believe I have had a full quest book from 1-24 on Elyos and Asmo has a quest shortage.

Besides the high level campaign quests, for a short time between levels 13 and 14 I had no quests that I could do. That's my experience. Once I hit level 14, I got a whole bunch of quests and didn't run out until about level 21 when all I had left were gathering quests.

I'm almost 40 on the elyos side...

 

It's a bit grindy at my level.. but one campaign quest resulted in about 20% of my level... (killing + the turn in).  Just wondering you guys do check back in older spots right???

 

 

The quest hubs have a major group of quests then if you come back later you'll find others. 

 

Oh and my quest log is full and I've had to dump quests.  Do I grind?  Yeah.. because I really just tune out when I pve.

I got a lvl 23 asmodian and yes at 22 you get a bit low on quests BUT if you go in pandemonia and get all quests possible plus do the repetables at least once they can unlock other quests. I still have the 2 spy quests but I can't seem to find a party that goes there to finishes them so I had around 180k exp and good rewards down from my level.

Now at level 23 I got on 9 new quests (could be less but got a few) only from morhreim (or how ever it's named) didn't check the other map yet, I try to finish all quests I can do on one side first before going to search on the other maps.

In aion 90% of the times to get a quest you need to finish another quest that's why many can't find them.

12-14 there are loads of quest for both Asmodians and Elyos, I know because I'm within that level range. Both Elyos and Asmodians get loads of quests in their forest area even after they run out of quests there they only have to walk a short distance to get some more.

This is not a game.

It's quality not quantity.  People complain about 1-25 not because there isn't anything to do, it's because it's boring as hell.  It's about the most on-rails, linear experience you'll ever have in an MMO.

Yup, my asmo glad ran out of quest at lvl 13, 19, 24 and 29. Overall I grinded more then 6 lvl purely on mobs. I did skip most group quest except Black Claw. He is lvl 31 now and after these 2 last level of grind I can see 2 more ahead.

I am rerolling a templar and so far I am lvl 16 with him and full of quest, no grind in sight...  The only difference between my 2 toons so far is that I gather and craft with my templar, (something I didn't do with my glad) and I will do most group quest with him so I don't think he will hit the grind wall (wich made me reroll).

Can't talk about Asmo, but being Elyos almost 20 I just started to do the Krall group quests. I could grind just a bit to get to 20 and start heading to Eltnen and get some more quests but i never had a single problems with quests so far.

im not sure where you guys are having issues from but at 20-25 between brostliem( i think) and the Morheim regions, im packed with quests on the asmodea side. im on 24 now and i still have quite a bit more quests.

I suggest you take a trip to both regions and quest.
