Hi I know it's weird that a player posting in MMO development forums but I guess there's no way to say my needing better than here.

Aion is my passionate game but it doesn't mean it's perfect it has many flaws.
Let use 4.6 as an example since it's official leak means everything working perfectly.

-4.6 introduce p2w tempering solution with abysmal drop rate in game.
Tempering solution is a mandatory item to play in 4.6 properly, I'm not asking free of it by afking in game but rather rising drop rate of them in instances to decent level maybe like 5%-10%. Some private servers like Euro Aion justified tempering solution by adding them in events creating FOMO ( ) among players it's bad for players health.

-Increase drop rate in instance without VIP.
VIP shouldn't be a mandatory to farm properly. I mean farming instances people go there for enchantment stones but often got nothing because they're not VIP.

-Add NPCs who selling mana stones to give basic need for new players.
New players often lack of mana stones because they're overpriced and too expensive for them to get. Mana stones NPCs should sell at least Magic Boost +27, Crit +17, Attack +5, Magic Accuracy +14. And yet it still giving high value of MB +28, Crit +19 as top tier mana stones.

-Remove ancient mana stone slots and make you able to socket both normal and ancient mana stones.
This happened in official Aion in later patch. To increase ancient mana stones value and make new players able to socket them with normal mana stones if they want to.

-Make Blood Marks able to buy tempering solutions and greater felicitous socketing.
This will make everyone doing BM camps and create PvP activity in game in long term.

-Disable EB from the game make the EB gears unobtainable.
It's boring it's stupid it's nothing than farming cera medal and glory points in PvE. Not having it is better than having it.

-Add mounts to drop in Instances.
There're too many mounts in shop and very few in game. Mounts are mandatory in order to escape or chase somebody in game. Make some from shop dropping in all 4.x instances at decent rate.

-Remove ide key requirement for IS and DR entry.
So everyone can join and farm endgame instances. IDE farming has been a problem since beginning since they're some mafia players play both factions and keep killing competitors from farming against.

-Unify Kahrun symbol and ancient coin into new currency.
It's problematic that cleric and chanter needs to farm kahrun armors but lacking of alliance to do weekly quests because no other classes need kahrun and add some shop mounts buyable with this new currency.

-Increase campaign exp in Inggison/Gelk, Sarpan, Tiamat, Katalam, Danaria
To the point they can reach lv 65 without doing BM camps for people who do not wish to PvP.

-Event should be about fun not about players can monetize from it.
Event should never mean profitable for players. I suggest we should give random event skin, hair, emote boxes instead.

-Skill changes
Could simply copy from

-Remove AP loses from PvP
It's simply discourage people from PvP and promoting ganking too so remove it.

-Give only eternal weapons as starter gear no armors please
Let us farm some coin armors so it wouldn't go obsolete.

I think those changes are easily to make. I think if you do all of them you will have a chance to success as a private server.
 
Hey there!

I don't think the community can help you with these points. Many developers are just developing for themselves or in a small group for fun, not to run a public server. It would be better to address the existing server owners (or those who want to become one) instead. Most of your suggestions (10 outta 14) focus on configurable changes anyway. Also, 4.6 is just one patch that the community is working on. There are also 4.8, 5.8, 2.7/3.0 Classic, just to name a few.

Greetings

I completely agree with you. This issue should be resolved among the server owners rather than asking the community for input. Things can go wrong.

From everything written I can only draw one conclusion. You should learn how to work with server files and open the server of your own dreams. There are training materials on this forum.
