Now like I mentioned before there’s quite a few places promoting hundreds Free Facebook Credits easily by doing surveys or linking your friends, or adding apps etc.  However as most people have found out the hard way these are all scams.  As mentioned here, the only way to get Facebook Credits are by either doing incentive offers for Facebook Credits or via in game.

Problem with the method of earning Facebook Credits via a game, is that most games on Facebook only give you points that work toward their game, and not for any other game.  So I want to compile a list of games that let you earn Facebook Credits.  So far I know of two games, but if I find any more I will add them to the list.

Note: Pop-up blockers like Adblock must be turned off to view these offers since they are in video ads that you watch.

• Vampires: The Darkside (http://apps.facebook.com/vampiresdarkside/)
  Click on the ‘Council’ tab to get to this screen.  Then look for the highlighted link ‘Watch & Earn’.  This will bring up a commercial for you to watch, after the video is done the Facebook credit is added to your account immediately.
• Chronicles of Herenvale (http://apps.facebook.com/herenvale/)
  
  This one will require you to go through the game’s tutorial until you get past ‘Questing’ which takes a about 2-3 minutes to get through.  Once you’re done every now and then you’ll see the ‘Daily Deals’ pop up.  If a video is available it will be the first thing to play,  in which all you have to do is watch the video and wait for it to end.  Facebook Credit will be instantly credited to your account.

So far these are the only ones that I know of that give out Free Facebook credits in game.  If you readers know of other games please leave a comment and let me know.  I’ll look into it, and if it is legitimate I’ll add it to this list here.  Happy gaming!

1. Up to 160 Free Facebook Credits on 2/24/2012 via Shopkick

However after spending some time searching for ways to get free Facebook credits, I ran into quite a few scams or survey sites that promise you credits after completing offers or purchasing things.  There were even outdated posts on games like Hello City to get free credits which doesn’t work any more.

Well recently I’ve been lucky enough to come across not one, but two, places to get free Facebook Credits, and this Friday (2/24/2012)  there’s a special event that can get you 160 Free Facebook Credits with NO PURCHASE NECESSARY.

One is 4Loot and is a search engine which you need to just use their search engine to rack up points (you can download tool bars/plugins etc. but I don’t recommend doing that).  You can probably earn enough to get 25 Facebook Credits in a month or so, which to me is alot of time.

The other way is via Shopkick, which is an app for iphone or droids that lets you get credits for doing nothing but walking INTO a store on their list.  These aren’t vague store that only exist in some states, but fairly well recognized places like Sports Authority, Old Navy, Macys, Wet Seal etc.

Now I mentioned that there’s an event this weekend, and here’s the gist of it.

1.  Download Shopkick to your phone here:

2.  Once you downloaded the app make sure to login to the app on your phone in the settings page.  Do this and you will receive an extra 50 kicks (worth 2 Facebook Credits)  from me for using my link above.

3.  Visit store with the green ‘walk in’ points listed to earn your free credits.  YMMV depending on where you live (ie: here on Maui I can only go to 4 of the listed store this friday).

This weekend (2/24/2012) there is a special Black Friday Sale weekend going on that will net you around 200-400 kicks per store that you just enter WITHOUT having to buy anything.

Below is a list of the 10 stores giving out 200 kicks each (valued at 8 Facebook Credits).

• American Eagle Outfitters
• Arden B.
• Best Buy
• Crate & Barrel
• Macy’s
• Old Navy
• Simon Sales
• Target
• Toys R Us
• Wet Seal

Within Shopkick itself there are bonuses that you can collect to receive 2x points per walk in making this week’s even net you around 4000 kicks (roughly 160 Facebook Credits).  After you’ve collected your kicks you can turn them in immediately for Facebook Credits.

And that’s it, no purchases needed, no surveys to be done, and you can earn more free Facebook Credits daily even after this promotion is over.

If you want to know more about saving money on via Shopkick bargains, someone already has a post describing those as well here or watch the video below.  The Shopkick FAQs are found here on their website.

In the guild that I’ve been a part of for a while now, we’ve been using Ventrilo for the last few years.  It was really good for organizing those 40 man raids in World of Warcraft back in the day.  At one point we probably had upwards of 150+ people when we were zerging fighting the destro back in the days of Warhammer Online.  Aside from having to mute everyone, but the leader the server handled pretty well with that many people.

There was one really annoying thing about having that many people online though.  It was the fact that everyone was speaking at different volumes depending on how they had their microphone was setup.  Well we figured out a way to fix that so that everyone sounds roughly the same volume all the time regardless of what they have their outbound microphone volume setup as. Its called Ventrilo Normalization, and its a really great tip for using Ventrilo Voice Chat.

The steps are pretty easy, and you can tweak it yourself to suit your needs.  There’s a really good post about it here:

This list doesn’t need to be applied to just Rangers, but can be done by anyone who can kite, or find a partner to duo with.  Here’s the link to the forum post, and happy hunting!

Its really the same concept as the Leatherworking tip I posted a few years back for World of Warcraft.  Its a common sense know how much you can sell your product for, and know how much it costs to create the product.  Also include how much time it takes for you to create it to see if its worthwhile.

I will use Tailoring’s  Strong Durable Leather Jerkin as an example.  Please note that this is a generic vendor recipe.  The materials for this recipe is relatively cheap since no one wants white quality gear at level 38, so take advantage of that fact to net you some quick money.  Even the Critical version of this recipe is outdone  by its level 33 equivalent making it relatively worthless for players.  Or is it?  Let’s take a deeper look into it.

To make one you’ll need:

• 11 Strong Leather Pads
• 16 Strong Leather Cords
• 4 Fine Armor Flux
• 28 Aether Gem

Now go check the Auction house for these items, and see what the prices are.  I’ll use my server’s prices to demonstrate my point, also I’ll include the reagent price(vendor) for Greater Leather Hardeners.

• Strong Leather Pads – 1k-2k
• Strong Leather Cords – N/A
• Fine Armor Flux – 1k-2k
• Aether Gem – 500-1k
• Strong Leather – N/A
• Strong Rawhide – 100-500
• Greater Leather Hardener – 478

Also note that it takes exactly 38 Strong Leathers(76 Strong Rawhide) to make the pads/cords.  If you’re familiar with Aion’s crafting system for Tailors you’ll know that the Strong Leather Pads have a chance to ‘Crit’ into Strong Luxury Leather Pads, and Strong Finest Leather Pads, so you’ll need to make a few extra.

So lets total up the cost of these materials here:

• 11x Strong Leather Pads – 10156 Kinah (22 Greater Leather Hardeners x 478 Kinah)
• 16x Strong Leather Cords – 7648 Kinah (16 Greater Leather Hardeners x 478 Kinah)
• 4x Fine Armor Flux – 8,000 Kinah ( 4 Fine Armor Flux x 2000 Kinah)
• 28x Aether Gem – 28000 (28 Aether Gem x 1000 Kinah)
• 76x Strong Rawhide – 38000 (76 Strong Rawhide x 500 Kinah)

This totals up to 91804 Kinah in materials OUCH!.  Easy enough right?  Now you are probably wondering why you’ve gone a created a rather crappy looking piece of leather that noone on the Trade Broker is even going to buy.  Well since you’re at the tradeskill vendor why don’t you just dump the newly made jerkin off there, and find out that that nice npc who sold you all the reagents, is willing to buy this crappy item from you for a whopping 114,000 Kinah.  Netting you an extra 22k Kinah profit guaranteed.

Now don’t forget about critical craft chances.  One in five of these Jerkins will Crit into a Strong Noble Durable Jerkin and these vendor for a whopping 142k Kinah.  That’s a nice 50k profit.

Now the only thing stopping me from mass-producing this is the fact that other people have already caught on to it, and I often find the trade broker on my server devoid of leather/fluxes.  It still doesn’t stop me from tailoring 5-10 of these a day.  The most time consuming part is making the Strong Rawhide into Strong Leather, which I usually do in bulk before I go to bed as it takes a few hours when you do a large quantity.

That about wraps up this tip for making some easy Kinah, but to be honest, the best way to make alot of Kinah is to just level up.  At level 41 as a ranger class I can make roughly 150-250k an hour soloing the elites in Lepharist Citadel in Eltenen, but that’s another story for a later time.

I haven’t quite caught up to 8 Million Kinah like the guy posting the Kinah Guide here, nor have I bought one of these guides yet.  Anyone know if its even worth it when making gold in Aion is soo easy?

This one is easy enough to do, and starts in Heiron with the quest ‘Suspicious Shugo‘, which sends you on a quest to find a Shugo by the name of Roikinerk.  This Shugo though wanders around quite a bit, and throughout Heiron so tracking him down is probably the hardest part since he literally travels throughout the whole zone (Basically the Rexxar of Aion).

Once you do find him, Roikinerk gives you a quest called ‘Price of Goodwill‘.  He then stuffs your head in a bag, and you wake up aboard the Steel Rake in a prison cell.  Getting out is pretty easy, as you just talk to the npc next to you, and grab the port scroll that’s in his bag.  The teleport scroll conveniently places you onto the Black Cloud Island in the upper abyss to talk to an npc, who then sends you over to the Sanctum Outer Dock area to finish the quest.  Once that’s done, and completed, you’re now able to get onto the Steel Rake.

The Steel Rake instance entrance is the NPC right next to the shugo ship after you complete the quest on the Outer Dock of Sanctum.

Daevonian Quests
At level 30 I recommend you do this quest as you basically get a piece of the set of blue gear for 97k Kinah.

Note:You need 5 level 30 alts to make the full set which then opens up the quest to make the blue weapon. Its not worth it unless you really like making alts.

The attunement quest for Elyos players is fairly simple, all you need is an item drop called Fire Temple Key.  Sound simple enough?  Well it is, unless you are really unlucky with item drops.  Basically you head down to Kyola Temple in Eltenen (Around Here on Map), and start grinding on certain mobs.  At night the Raging Obscura drop the Fire Temple Key, and during the day time you can head into the Kyola Temple to kill Shadow Obscura, and Chaotic Temptress, all of which drop the key.  Please note that these mobs are 33-35, and do link so I would recommend a partner if you have trouble killing them by yourself. (note:you need to be level 30 to accept the quest, but you can be below level 30 to get the key)

Basically after much farming (if you’re unlucky), and you finally get a hold of one of these keys.  Right click the key in your inventory to start The Fire Temple Key quest.  Which sounds soo very generic, and non-epic sounding, which is exactly what the quest is.  You walk a whole 100 meters to the npc standing right outside of Kyola Temple, and turn it in.  Pretty simple, and now you are ready for the level 30-38 grind fest in the temple to hopefully get one of those orange drops off of Kromede.  I wouldn’t get too excited though, the game isn’t like WoW in which it always drops loot.  Most times you’ll drop just Kinah, or sometimes nothing at all.

The main boss of the instance is called Kromede, and she has two forms that she can appear in.  The normal one is Kromede the Corrupt, and the second rarer variant is The Vile Judge Kromede. (the later seems to have a slightly higher drop rate on orange quality gear).

Other than the main boss, the instance has up to 6 other bosses at a random spawn rate.

There are:

Silver-Bladed Rotan (purple path is always up)

Tough Sipus (Right Teal dot) (Drops Sipus’s Shield)

Broken Wing (Left Teal dot)

Flame Branch Levi (Left Yellow Dot)

Name ghost miniboss (Right Yellow Dot)

Lava Gatneri (Right Red Dot)

Malgolem (Left Red Dot)

The Green Dot on the Bottom of the map is the quest NPC for Hannet’s Quest ([Spy] Finding Denlavis). Which will eventually give you a Blue level 32 weapon via the quest (Hannet’s Vengeance). Its worth doing this quest as early as possible as even at level 38 my ranger still uses Hannet’s Longbow, which is one of the quest rewards you can get from it.

Level 30 is a pretty big deal in Aion, especially if you picked up the collector’s edition Aion package.  However its also one of the first levels that gives you access to your first piece of quested blue gear with little to no effort.  However to get the full set of this you’ll have to put in quite a bit of game time, however the set bonuses are pretty wicked.  The particular quest I’m talking about is the Daeva Armor quest, the first of which starts at level 30 in Aion. Its pretty simple, but here’s a quick walkthrough on how to get your Daeva armor.

This is for the Elyos version, I made an Asmodian Level 30 Daeva Armor quest walkthrough since there wasn’t too much info regarding it posted anywhere.
