NCsoft today released the latest patch update to the popular MMO Aion. Building off the significant increase in drop rates that players received in Aion Update 2.1, the trifecta of player rewards is complete as Aion Update 2.1 Part 2 adds more than 300 new craft designs along with a higher drop rates for item designs and gathering materials.

Along with these significant increases, Aion Update 2.1 Part 2 brings vast changes to not only the quests currently available, but the crafting system as well. Quests have been re-worked with increased drop frequency of items and gear rewarding players for their efforts. Additionally, the quests have been re-balanced to provide players with more enjoyment as they quest for rewards.

Targeting the desire for new items and designs, NCsoft increased the drop frequency of both item designs and raw materials used for crafting. The enhancements coming in this update streamline the crafting efforts allowing them more time to engage in combat as opposed to mundane tasks.

Complete patch notes are avaliable at Aionwiki. Aion was released in September 2009 for PC.
