Aion's 3rd Anniversary

This September marks the 3rd anniversary of Aion's launch,  and to celebrate the occasion,  there's an anniversary event!  There's a huge birthday cake in the capital city of each faction,  and deavas are invited to light a candle,  which will endow them with the blessings of Aion.   The message:  get out there and start grinding mobs!  You'll need to in order to get an Aether Flame,  which is the event item that's exchanged by the NPCs in Sanctum and Pandamonium for a candle.   The Aether Flames
are somewhat of a rare drop during this event.  I haven't gotten one yet,  but my cleric alt did from an Earth Spirit in Heiron while on the Fast Track server.    If you haven't gotten one yet,  its not a problem,  because the effects of the candle buffs extend to a large radius (100 meters) around the daeva who lights the candle.  In other words,  just stand around the cake for a while and you'll receive the buffs from the candle just lit by the lucky deava who did get an Aether Flame!
There are 3 kinds of candles (buffs) to choose from:

1. Blazing, which triples the leveling speed,
2. Magical,  which triples the drop rate, and
3. Spiritual,  which recovers 2000 DP,  increases attack speed by 10% and reduces cast time by 10%

These buffs last for 4 hours.  Good luck on getting those Aether Flames,  but if you don't have the time to grind for them,  they can be bought from the Black Cloud Marketplace.  They're on sale
until Oct. 10th.
