Aion Online – Live Status Tools – Freaking Awesome
When Warhammer was released, and they had an updated ranking information with the realm ranks and everything I was stoked to be able to see a realm time updated database of players, their gear, and their current exp/renown rank via the Character Search function they had. However NCSoft’s Live Server Status for Aion is definitely superior. You can check you population ratios for servers, characters, character gear, character stigmas, abyss points, and you can even check you in game mail/auction house item sales. There’s even a 3D character model that you can view to show off your character. Wow. Just simply amazing.
And in case you’re wondering what I’m up to, here’s my character Xight on there.

and I could have sworn I heard something about Tier 3 Warhammer or something. Read more
