Aion 2 progression systems

Engraved into gear in the Enhancement window for a small Kina fee. Slots by grade: Common 1, Rare 2, Epic 3, Unique 4.

Each engraving rolls a random line and a quality tier (about half Rare, a third Epic, the rest Unique). Damage Boost lines appear only on Superior stones and are rare.

Re-engraving replaces the line; moving gear the normal way loses its engravings. Abyssal Manastones, bought with Abyss Points, lean towards PvP stats.

A toggled consumable in its own quick slot (default B) that spends one shard per attack.

Basic shards add about 5% damage and are bought for Kina; Superior shards add about 10%; Abyssal shards also ignore part of the target’s defence.

Players measured the real gain at roughly 4.7% and 8.9%, because the bonus multiplies only the weapon part of Attack.

About 200 pets in five genera: Cogni, Fera, Natura, Varian and Special. Souls from open-world monsters raise a pet’s Insight; the global cap is Insight 3 (Korea and Taiwan already have 5).

Owned effects are passive and stack whether a pet is summoned or not; ownership and Insight are shared by all characters on the same server.

Genus boards level from 1 to 10 and open analysis slots with extra stats; “all Genus 10” means every board is maxed.

Over 500 titles in six categories, most with stats. Three slots (Attack, Defense, Other) give the full equip effect; every other title you own adds a small permanent bonus that stacks.

Notable ones: Guardian and Saint of Verteron/Altgard for Monolith 20 and 30, Unbound by Genus for all Genus boards at 10, Rule All Creation for 200 pets, Treading on Black Wings for 300 PvP kills.

Red cubes that are not shown on the map, hidden on cliffs, under ground or under water; they make a sound when you are close. Most need a key (Open with Key).

About 200 cube groups spread over Verteron, Altgard, Eltnen and Morheim; none in Poeta, Ishalgen or Reshanta. Keys come from Hero quests, achievements, the season shop, the Daeva Pass and the Monolith.

Rewards: Soul Crystals, Silentium and Seeds of Detection, with a small chance of skins, wings or Odyle Energy.

Daily: five Duty Missions per server (Kina and Abyss Points, they bank up to 20), two Nightmare runs (bank up to 14, only spent on a clear), three Shugo Festival keys and one Dimensional Invasion key.

Weekly: limited hours in each layer of Reshanta (the Abyss), four raid attempts, three Ascension Trials and Subjugations, seven runs per Exploration dungeon. Weekly reset is on Wednesday.
