Obtain fun summer themed items during the Scorching Heat event!

Rick Damland of the Atreian Weather Service has just informed us that summer is here after a record breaking four month long spring. The report indicated that beginning this Wednesday, July 20th, 2011, all of Atreia will experience scorching temperatures!

When summer begins on July 20th, players will be rewarded with Scorching Heat during their adventures throughout Atreia. As players collect Scorching Heat, they will be able to purchase ice boxes to keep cool. These ice boxes contain swim suits, coins, candies and even dyes! Keep cool during the summer heat, and don't forget the sunscreen!

Scorching Heat

A mysterious token sealed with the heat of high summer. Take it to a Box Trader in Sanctum or Pandaemonium to trade it for a present.

Play Aion, accumulate Scorching Heat tokens, and exchange them for ice boxes!

Characters logged in to Aion will receive one Scorching Heat token every 20 minutes. These tokens appear in the character's cube, and after acquiring 20 or 50 Scorching Heats, the character can trade them in for an ice box. Bring Scorching Heat tokens to the Box Traders in Sanctum or Pandaemonium to receive a Cold Box (requires 20 Scorching Heats) or a Frozen Box (requires 50 Scorching Heats).
 
There is no level requirement for this event; all characters can participate. Even level 1 characters will receive Scorching Heat tokens (however, because the Box Traders are located Sanctum and Pandaemonium, characters must become Daevas to exchange the tokens).
 
The [Event] Cold Box and [Event] Frozen Box contain various items, including special summer-themed armor and accessories. Check out the full list in the Rewards section.

Play Aion and receive 1 Scorching Heat  token every 20 minutes

During the event period (7/20/11 - 08/03/11), when logged in, 1 Scorching Heat token will be deposited in a character's cube every 20 minutes.

There are no other requirements—just log in and have fun!
