Hmm, I thought I'd write some more but does anyone even visit this area these days? I will gladly save myself from writing any novels. :D

Feel free to ask any questions about the server. It's supposed to be the next big thing unless Levitation turns out to be a huge success. Elamidas 2 is on the way too, though.

PS. There will be some Salvation inspired stuff. :)

People do check out the section, but most people have very little faith in new private servers.

Website seems offline?

It's 100 cap, EU & CH.

There will be some totally new chinese stuff, better synergy for duals, boosts for different kind of hybrids, some useless skills modified, too. Trying to make every build as viable option as possible. :)

Everything's been delayed to avoid unnecessary competition with Levitation.

Can I participate in beta, since I'm kinda bored, and haven't played pservers for like 2 years.

Would be a bit difficult to get you into the closed beta because the accounts need to be created by the owner and he's only inviting people he knows. :(

I think the rates are a little bit too high, 5x or 10x at most would be awesome, and quest should be modified, so that players motivate to do quest when leveling with better quest rewards and less requirement to complete, just like the did in Venture server.

While I don't personally mind having "tougher" rates, they can, and will cause a few things that are not overly positive. Everyone can't start the server on day one or even find out the server exists before it has been a few days. They join late and find out it takes a long time to reach the older players. All that time they struggle with less parties around, uniques taken by stronger players, you get crushed in the events and so on. There aren't enough people left in the scene to begin with and you need everyone. Also, whenever you decide to decrease the rates, you create a bigger gap between EU and CH players and EU sure don't need more advantage than they already have. Also, it rewards the "hardcore" nolife 24/7 botting people. The faster you reach the cap, the more chances you have jobbing without any threat around. On top of that you have the whole Job Battleground to yourself with all of its uniques and loot. I certainly don't want to give too much edge to the people who don't sleep the first 2-3 days.

Here's some more stuff about the server. :)

Sorry about the advert-like form, cba to rewrite it here.

The Gladiator Event

We are introducing a new PVP type event here on Araxion! Four against four gladiator fight in the Survival Arena. You sign up your party via message and when the event begins, yours and the opposing party will be moved to the arena. Battle goes on until you have beaten the opposing party... or lost the fight. Once the fight is over, you will get teleported out and receive your rewards. However, if you are unsuccessful at killing every opponent before the time runs out, the match ends to a tie and the rewards are lower. Every fight happens in its own instance. Currently up to 100 parties can join simultaneously - the amount can be increased if needed.

Also a sneak peak to the balance (subject to change)

Hybrid Power

Choosing 100 fire and light will open up a new magical damage increase skill. Useful for both, STR and INT hybrids and also "chinese wizards" or just a crazy max DPS INT build with no defence.

Chinese Dual Synergy and Bowers

Glaive/Blade has been the ultimate choice before. We have decided to improve the two other options. Bowers have access to KD via Autumn Wind -Sweeping for better synergy with Bicheon. Of course a regular Bower can use this to escape, interrupt or catch a running target. However, without Bicheon you won't have anything to hit them with while they are on ground. Bowers have also gained a boost to their passive, giving them more crit, which will boost your effectiveness as a dual glaive/bow build, as well as the regular bow builds.

Other Chinese Power Ups and Changes

Weapon:
-Bicheon Force series offers more damage boost.
-Stabs have higher critical increase.
-Lightning Chain has been dedicated to STR builds and it can aggro mobs (Bladers can tank succesfully), debuffs have been reworked so that STR doesn't have access to impotent.
-Thousand Army Chain has been dedicated to INT builds and has more useful debuffs than before.
-Anti Devil and Strong Bow have higher critical boosts.
-Arrow Combos cannot be spammed for constant KB.

Force:
-Flame body series, Flame Devil Force and piercing force series have higher values.
-Snow shield requires certain amount of INT, hybrids can still get it though.
-Cold nuke and imbue damages are higher.
-Cold Wave will now freeze your opponent for a short moment.
-Fire and Ice walls have higher cooldown.
-Lightning provides the same movement speed as the best purchaseable option.
-Force has access to group resurrection.
-Force Cure and Cure Therapy have shared cooldowns.

That's interesting. Is is like original Survival Arena? Or did you create your "own" pvp ground? How exactly does it work?

Yep, it's the same place: https://www.facebook.com/AraxionOnline/ ... =3&theater

Fight till death, winners take it all. It will last around 15 minutes or until you have killed all of your opponents. Zerk will most likely be deactivated. There's a chance the 3 round system is used instead, then zerk would be available.

so? when will the server opens? but I still think exp rate should be 10x or lower since you can cap probably in 1 day addict mode with just 10x rates in 100 cap.

Current estimation is between 11th and 18th September. Open beta most likely coming online this weekend or in the beginning of next week.

So it's just the "same place"? Or is it actually working like original SA where you have to register at Arena Manager and see the score in Arena etc.?

Unfortunately, registration works the same way as with all the other "custom" events, via the message system. There are some restrictions you just cannot overcome without having the actual files.

checked out epvp thread, I think the server is too edited. It force people to to jobbing to get better gears. I think I remember Januera some time ago, and its not really good experience, I think that server died the very same day it was opened due to bugs and attacks.

SoA gear is only +1 behind SoM and you can further improve it via socket stones. On Januera there were two people running the server, one that didn't know how to fix anything and kept adding more silk items to make more cash while Muhab was busy with his studies. It was his very first server too. Don't judge too harshly. :)

Also, in general about edits. I often run into people who'd like a server with the least possible edits. "Old school feeling" they say. However, when you create a server like this these days, the population just doesn't cut it. The online numbers will deter people more than effectively right from the start and you'll end up closing it with in the first two months 99 out 100 times.

Looks promising

From what i understand SoS and SoA is from drops while SoM and SUN is bought with jobbing coins etc, will people be able to buy most components? (except job coins)

Is normal uniques a big factor? i prefer the job ones alot more :p

People have to collect both Platinum coins (uniques, events & job bg elites) and Rusted coins (job) by themselves.

Uniques spawning with in the Job Battleground have better loot than anything outside (Bone Roc excluded).

Too edited, the coin system is too complex. If it was just skill balances, then I wouldn't mind, but everything is too edited.
