The Advanced Encounter System is Sigil`s answer to instancing in Vanguard: Saga of Heroes. How will the A.E.S. work in the game, and how will it solve the problems previously addressed by instanced content? Can this system benefit the game? Can it overcome the draw backs to instancing and improve the game for the better? Instancing is usually done by taking a group of players and sending them to their own private copy of an area or zone inside the game. The group has exclusive rights to this content, and others may not enter. It was used to address a few problems such as overcrowding, kill stealing, grieving, and camping. The drawback to instancing is that while solving these problems, it tends to separate the community making the world seem smaller and less alive. A little instancing can be good, but a lot can be harmful to the social community these MMOs enjoy. This function is disliked by some of the player base for that reason. The A.E.S. designed by the development team at Sigil Games Online will address these problems with a new approach, and without the problems of community separation that was a result of instancing content.
