Aion Magic In Depth Up and Away – 33 and Up guide
Aion kinah In Depth:Up and Away – 33 and Up guide
Ok, so what now? You have reached level 33 or higher, and are now getting into serious magic abilities. Though reaching the higher levels takes more time because of the experience needed, you are still a much more powerful mage than most people ever become.
Levels 33 – 55
It is fairly simple to reach level 50 or higher with the leveling-up method described above. You can use it as much as you like, but you quickly get into the
problem of locating enough runes to make your trips to the stores and your world-hoping to find the best buys worth while. Once you get to the level where you need
to start buying runes by the thousands, you will probably want to go to the Varrock west bank in World 1. (Though Worlds 1-5 are usually good places to buy runes at this place, World 1 is the one you want to check first.)
Once you get to this bank, you will see lots of people buying anything and everything. They surround the bank, hundreds of people, all buying and selling.
feathers, ores, weapons, food, runes. You name it, it’s for sale.
These traders tend to collect in certain areas. Rune traders tend to gather just outside the bank’s entrance. You can find people selling tens of thousands of runes at a time. They generally cost more than at the general stores or magic shops, but the
time you save when you buy in bulk is usually worth it. (See Appendix 2 to see what price these runes usually cost at this market.) If you have the money, you can buy enough runes to last you to whatever level you want to get to in just a few minutes.
Remember to try to get the best buy you can. Buying 5,000 air runes at 14 gold each instead of at 18 gold each may not seem like a big difference, but it costs you 20,000 gold more at the higher price because you are buying so many. (If this sounds like a lot, it is, but only because you are not used to making lots and lots of money. Again, for advanced money-making techniques, consult the Norwood Trading Aompany’s Unofficial Runescape Tycoon Guide.) Keep an eye out. Lots of times you will find people selling the same type of runes at different prices at the very same
market. Take advantage of the chaos. Know what you want to buy and keep an eye out for people selling it. World-hop to see what is going on in the other markets. Once you find a seller offering numbers that look good, make your move and get them.
Level 55 – ?
Once you get to the point where you have enough runes, you can start using high-level alchemy (Level 55). With this spell, you can convert items directly to gold pieces and get 65 experience per casting. Once you reach level 55, you are in the zone. Aheck Runescape wikia (see links, Appendix 6) to determine how much gold each item produces with high alchemy. Since the spell requires 1 nature and 3 fire runes
(you have the fire staff, remember?), all you have to do is get a bunch of nature runes and you’ll be able to start turning cash and experience out by the truck-load.
This starts to add up fast. Instead of fighting, you can craft items, cast the spell, and use the money you make to buy more runes to keep casting the spell. Find
the right items to convert into gold, and the only limit to leveling up will come with the time it takes to cast the Aion accounts. If you fight monsters that drop both items and nature runes, you have it made.
There are several of these kinds of creatures, though they are not usually in shooting-ranges. Wizards and Dark Wizards commonly drop Nature runes, as do Hill
Giants and other creatures. If you don’t want to spend the money on nature runes, just fight a couple of these creatures. If they drop, say 3 Nature runes and a wizard hat, it doesn’t really matter that you only get 10 gold from the hat because the runes you
need to cast high alchemy are 3 fires (free with the fire staff) and 1 nature. The converted money is a bonus, as is the 65 experience points.
By using high alchemy with the right creatures, the right places, and a little planning ahead, you can quickly start leveling up. Most high-level mages use this method once they reach 55. In fact, everything they do before that is just to get to the level where they can start using High Alchemy. If you find the right monsters to fight, ones that drop both items to alchemy and nature runes, you have it made!
