Patch notes

Every maintenance of Aion 2 Global: the changes that matter for play, in our own words, newest first. Whether maintenance is running right now is shown at the top right of the menu.

By class:
  1. Maintenance 08:30–12:30 German time (planned)

    Halloween event, Abyss event and changes for the transfer period

    Weekly maintenance with two events running into early November, adjusted shop offers during server transfers, fixes for Spiritmaster and Sorcerer, and a fixed cap on Abyss time.

    Halloween event (until the maintenance on 4 November)

    • New “Trick or Treat” attendance: 14 days of Halloween Pumpkin Coins (Event), 35 a day and 100 each on days 7 and 14.
    • Under Season Missions → Event, ten weekly missions (once per server per week) give more coins, e.g. for Abyss monsters, Transcendence, Expedition Conquest, Ascension Trial, Nightmare, Shugo Festival and Dimensional Invasion.
    • Coin merchants in town (Elyos: Verteron, Asmodians: Altgard) trade the coins, among other things for a Halloween chest with a breastplate skin and 10,000 Pet Soul Crystals (250 coins, once per server), Odyle Energy, Abyss Rift Stones, Nightmare tickets, Shugo Festival keys, Resurrection Spiritstones and Life Crystals.
    • Expeditions and Transcendence drop Candy Key Fragments; 60 make a red, yellow or blue key (each once per server per week) for the candies placed in town.

    Abyss event (until the maintenance on 28 October)

    • The Shop (Wind Breeze Merchants, Special tab) sells Abyss Rift Stones (Event) for 50,000 Kinah, 7 per character per week, from level 45.
    • For two weeks the same tab also offers the “Lower Abyss Rift Stone”.
    • The weekly missions “Spend 1 hour in the Abyss” and “Defeat Guardian Lord Nahma” now also give Abyss Entry Stones.

    During server transfers

    • Instant Clear Ticket (Daily Dungeon) and Soul Crystal move from the Wind Breeze Merchants to Substance Morph.
    • Odyle Energy (Bound): the weekly cap of 16 per server is lifted; each character can buy 20 a week instead of 4.

    Classes

    • Spiritmaster: Summon: Ancient Spirit at skill level 15 or below uses its skills reliably again.
    • Sorcerer: Fire Wall and Cold Storm no longer lose their bonus damage with a height difference, and your own Embers or Frostbite effects are no longer replaced by stronger effects from other players. Bittercold Wind’s cooldown reduction now also works with a height difference.

    Other

    • Accumulated Abyss entry time is capped at 7 hours.
    • Base stats on the Battlefield adjusted so fights do not drag on; less stutter in large Abyss battles.
    • New options: invert Y axis, show or hide HP bars on your own nameplate.
    • Gathering materials can only be listed on the Market to a limited extent depending on play history (against bots).
    • Fixed: crashes at certain refresh rates on 4K monitors, wrong graphics settings with two graphics cards, long loading with FSR, position reset when reconnecting during Shugo Festival. Graphics settings are no longer saved to Steam Cloud.

    Shop

    • New Halloween skins (armour sets, weapon skins for every class, helmets and face decor), two pets and Spider Wings, on sale until the maintenance on 25 November.
  2. Maintenance 08:30–10:00 German time

    Short maintenance: more flight power for quest wings

    A short maintenance to stabilise the servers. The four wings from quests get more flight power, and there is compensation for the maintenance and for the EU outage the day before.

    Changes

    • The four quest wings get 500 more flight power each: “Daeva's Lesser Wings” go from 2,000 to 2,500, “Intermediate”, “Superior” and “Ultimate Wings” from 500 to 1,000 (Elyos and Asmodian).
    • Server stabilisation.

    Compensation

    • For the maintenance: one “Special Daeva Supply Chest”, to be claimed within 7 days.
    • For the cloud outage on EU servers on 8 October: players with an active membership or active pet auto-loot on an affected server get one extra day of each (with the next maintenance, nothing to do).
    • In addition, a “Special Daeva Supply Chest” by mail with 20 Life Crystal, 10 Resurrection Spiritstone, 20 Battle Enhance Scroll, 5 Content Usage Ticket Selection Chest and 5 Odyle Energy (all bound).
    • Affected servers – Elyos: Nezekan, Kaisinel, Ariel, Meslamtaeda, Nania, Luteros, Daminu, Bakarma, Kochi, Tiamat; Asmodian: Zikel, Lumiel, Azphel, Beritra, Ulgorn, Odar, Kromede, Baba, Fafnir, Agnita, Atiel.
  3. Maintenance 08:30–12:00 German time (planned)

    Founder’s Pack on more characters and bug fixes

    Founder’s Pack rewards become available on more characters and servers. The update also adjusts materials, adds a shop offer and fixes several bugs.

    Changes

    • Founder’s Pack owners can collect missing skins, titles and other included items free of charge from a dedicated shop, according to their pack tier. The shop is available to all characters on all servers until its closure is announced.
    • Founder’s Pack items you already own cannot be bought again. Duplicate skins do not count against paid skin purchase limits. Preventing duplicate entries and removing duplicate inventory items are planned for later updates.
    • Using Substance Morph to turn “Sealed Wings” into “Enhance Stones” is limited to 20 conversions per server each week.
    • Monsters in “Chaotic Lower Reshanta”, Verteron and Altgard drop “Raw Leather” more often.
    • The “Wind Breeze Merchants” sell “Resurrection Spiritstone (Season 1)” under Shop → Special for 25,000 Kina each. You can buy up to 10 per server each week, from this maintenance until the announced December maintenance.

    Bug fixes

    • The map marker limit display is corrected: you can place up to 30 Map Pins.
    • Asmodian players can correctly complete the weekly Challenge Season mission “Daeva of Glorious Deeds” again.
    • “Movement Controls” no longer appears multiple times under Settings → Key Settings → General.
    • Several Emote commands work correctly in chat again.

    Note

    • If a Founder’s Pack purchase cannot be completed, NC recommends closing the client and trying again.
  4. Maintenance 07:00–15:00 German time

    Full launch

    Early access ends and Aion 2 Global launches properly. It also brings quality-of-life changes and several bug fixes.

    Changes

    • Characters can be deleted faster: the waiting time drops from 168 to 24 hours, and it applies from level 1 instead of level 10.
    • Without input, the game now only sends you back to server selection after 3 hours instead of 30 minutes.
    • In-game announcements stay visible for 10 seconds instead of 3.
    • Quest objects respond more reliably: some no longer disappear, others respawn faster.
    • Some bosses get stronger because they were too easy for a party of five.

    Bug fixes

    • With auto-movement during quests, characters no longer jump back to their previous position when other players are nearby.
    • A bug in the journal's “Duty” tab is fixed. Until then: if you open the tab before level 45, you only get its content the day after reaching 45.
    • The “Content” entry no longer appears several times in the key bindings.
    • If the game crashes during a quest, the follow-up quests can be continued normally again.
    • If you are stuck in the hero quests in Poeta or Ishalgen, a button in the quest tracker teleports you to Verteron or Altgard.
    • The title “Vanguard of Atreia” is no longer displayed incorrectly in the English client.
  5. Maintenance 08:00–09:30 German time

    Short maintenance for hero quests

    A short maintenance during early access fixes a bottleneck with quest objects.

    Bug fixes

    • Quest objects in hero quests in several regions caused waiting times because too many players were interacting with them at once. Three Elyos and four Asmodian regions were affected.
