Choices Of Leveling In Aion
When you are leveling in Aion there are really only two choices in terms of how to go about it
. The only two choices that you have are to quest and grind. Keep in mind that farming materials does yield experience, but it is very little and is considered as a "grind" as well.
Questing
Questing is a great way to level because you get guaranteed rewards after the quest(s) are complete. This helps because one may have an item you wish to obtain, or maybe you just enjoy the story line associated with the quests. This is by far one of the most popular ways to level up. The problem with questing comes in after you run into an area with many others working on the same quests. Many times you will run into other players who need the same mob as you do, the same quest items, etc. and do not wish to share.
The game does have a system set up for players who wish to quest with other players, however many people would rather go solo (at least at the lower levels) due to wishing to complete their levels as fast as possible.
If you do wish to group with others and they agree, items will be shared on a 50/50 basis (assuming there are two players, 33/33/34 basis with three, etc.). This makes everything go very smooth when questing because it allows all players to be finished within one mob of each other.
An example to better illustrate this is if you have two players who each need 5 items from Mob A. You are both grouped and so you assist each other on killing Mob A to speed up the killing process. Player 1 gets the first item, Player 2 gets the second item, Player 3 gets the third item, and on until everyone has all of their quests items.
The reason this system works exceptionally well is because it keeps one player fro "ninja stealing" off everyone else's work and then moving on without them. With this system in place it helps keep everything organized, friendly, and smooth.
But this is also the system's downfall. Once you get to an area with people who do not wish to share their quest items, you will be forced to either compete with them for the quest mobs or you will have to just sit back and allow them to complete their quest first.
As a personal recommendation, in cases like this it is best to take a small break (say for a drink of water, or to use the restroom) while you wait for them to finish their quest. This helps everything run much smoother because it keeps one player from getting aggravated and griefing another (read the section about "griefing" for more details).
Grinding
Grinding is going to be an inevitable part of playing Aion. No matter how many quests you do, and no matter what other plans you have, you will at multiple points be forced to grind.
During grinding (for experience or items) you will want to drown out the dullness by doing something else at the same time. Watching a movie while you go into "zombie mode" seems to help quite a bit. By the time your movie is over you will have already made (hopefully) quite a bit of progress, and it keeps you from being burned out too fast.
An alternative to doing the grinding is to make an alternate character and swap between them every once in a while. For example, when you get to a grind-only area on your main, make an alt and play one hour on each and keep swapping off. This will allow you to break from the grind by doing quests (on the alt) and still be progressing on the main. The only real issue with this is that you level slower than normally, but to some it keeps them from playing for 30 minutes and quitting for the day due to boredom.
Another alternative choice you can make is to find others who are also on the grinding part you are on, and work out a deal to swap off who is playing at the time. This does not require account sharing. You can group with the other player and let one follow the other while they do the killing. This is especially useful if you have two others as you can split the time equally. For example, A, B, and C are all grouped together. B and C auto follow A for an hour while he kills mobs. Then A and C follow B for an hour while he kills, and on and on. This is highly effective because there is an experience bonus while playing in groups with other players, and it allows you to all keep leveling nonstop. Not to mention there is absolutely no risk of having your account stolen because you are not sharing the information with them!
