Aion 4.7 Regions: Kaldor

This is the second article on the new regions added in the 4.7 update.  This article discusses the 2nd of 3 new regions added to the game,  Kaldor,  and how to get there.


Kaldor

From the very first time  I visited this place,  I realized one thing quickly:  it was built only for fort sieging.  There isn't much else going on there.  There's a fort, called Wealtheow Keep,  which goes live at a certain time (Fridays at 8:00 p.m. CST),  but when I logged on to attend the siege,  the fort wasn't vulnerable,  and was owned by Balaur.   The fort can be owned by any one faction up to 2 times in a row.

Getting There From Levinshor

Your first visit to Kaldor is arranged by a campaign quest,   and you're teleported there during the steps you take to complete that quest.  For Elyos the quest is called "Dismal Developments".  That was my first visit there,  however you can also port there from Levinshor.  The camps in Levinshor that have the Advanced Corridor to Kaldor are the North Relay and the South Relay.  The North Relay is for the Elyos and the South Relay for the Asmodians. Talk to NPC Olympon to take the quest "North Relay Relay".

Completing the quest

I don't know if you actually need to complete the quest to use the port to Kaldor.  You can try and use it without taking the quest and see if it works.  If not,  then just complete the quest and you'll be able to teleport.

This isn't to say,  for example,  that the Asmos can't use the North Relay to port to Kaldor.  They can if they take the camp,  and vice versa for the Elyos if they take the South camp.  It's just that the North Relay is closer to the Lunewillow camp,  which is the safe zone for the Elyos,  and the South Relay is closer to the Asmodian safe zone camp.  Whenever I've been in Levinshor,  the South Relay has always been owned by the Balaur or Asmos,  so I've never used that teleport.


Getting There From Katalam

Kaldor can also be reached from Katalam.  Elyos can port from Saparinerk's Farm by talking to quest NPC Saparinerk and taking the quest "New Lands to Behold".  After completing the quest you can port to Kaldor by speaking to NPC Tarunerk,  who stands right next to him.

For the Asmodians,  the NPC to talk to is Rubirinerk,  on Rubirinerk's Farm.  The teleport NPC is Poprunerk,  who stands beside him.

That about wraps it up on how to get to Kaldor.   Have fun in Aion :)
