If you've just hit level 45 in Aion 2 and you're staring at your gear wondering how on earth people are reaching 2400+ combat power, this guide is for you. This is a full, step-by-step roadmap that takes you from a fresh level 45 character all the way into endgame gearing, covering what to farm, what to prioritize, and what mistakes to avoid.
This isn't about one lucky drop—it's about building permanent power through smart systems: sealed dungeons, strongholds, feathers,with Aion 2 Kinah for sale,Abyss gear, transcendence, Vakron, and finally Fire Temple.
Let's break it down.
Step 1: Getting to Level 45 (And Not Struggling)
Your first goal is simple: finish the main story and reach level 45.
If you're struggling with bosses or damage checks:
Use scrolls: They give movement speed, strength, absorption, crit, attack damage, and more.
Use food buffs: Small boosts make a big difference early.
Upgrade your gear smartly:
It's cheaper to upgrade multiple items to +1 than to push one item to +5. Spread your upgrades evenly.
Collect feathers in the main city and invest them into the Monolith:
Each level gives skill points.
This gives you early power you normally wouldn't have.
You'll also start working toward upgrading your Revelation Amulet later.
If you're still stuck:
Run Sealed Dungeons (the question marks on the map).
Do Regional Quests.
These give Devenian (Deanian) points, which power up your skill boards and grant massive passive combat power over time.
Just from Devenian boards alone, you can gain around 500+ combat power eventually.
Step 2: Save Your Odal (Don't Make This Mistake)
While leveling, you'll be tempted to spend Odal on dungeon rewards and weapon rolls. Don't.
You'll get a level 57 class weapon from the main story anyway.
Anything you gamble for earlier will be replaced.
Save your Odal for later content like Vakron's Sky Island and its conquest version, where it's far more valuable.
Step 3: What to Do Immediately After Hitting Level 45
Once you hit 45, your priorities are:
Complete all Sealed Dungeons
Complete all Strongholds
Keep doing Regional Quests
Why Sealed Dungeons Matter
They give:
Devenian crystals
Enhance stones
Titles
Power progression items
These directly translate into passive and active power via your boards.
Why Strongholds Matter
Strongholds are mandatory for upgrading your belt all the way to Unique +10.
The process looks like this:
Upgrade the base belt to +10
Morph it into a rare version → get that to +10
Then morph into unique → get that to +10
This is a long-term, permanent item you will not replace.
Feathers and the Amulet
You need 140 feathers to fully upgrade your Revelation Amulet to Unique +10.
This is faster than the belt, and also permanent gear.
Both the belt and amulet give:
Weapon damage %
Penetration
Defense
HP
Potion recovery
Important warning:
Once you get these to Unique, stop upgrading for a while.
The cost becomes insane (tens of thousands of enhance stones per level).
Step 4: Rifts, Regional Quests, and Class Runes
Rifts (Every 3 Hours)
Rifts let you:
Do special regional quests in enemy territory
Get Devenian points
Get Stigma power shards (for stigma skills)
Class Runes = Huge Power Spike
You get these from Regional Quests (and sometimes season shops).
They come in satchels.
Upgrade them to +1 and STOP.
They can break on failure.
Even +2 can fail and you lose a ton of power.
Just equipping the two runes is roughly ~80 item levels worth of power.
They give permanent stats you'll use for a long time.
Step 5: Dailies, Supply Requests, and Shugo
These are passive, long-term progression systems.
Dailies
Give:
Kina
Enhance stones
Abyss points
Random gear and cosmetics
Odal
Do them when you can, but don't stress if you miss some.
Supply Requests (Daily / Weekly / Seasonal)
You deposit items or crafted materials
You get Abyss Points
This is one of the most reliable ways to build up Abyss currency over time
Shugo
Shugo can give:
Random gear (even level 55+)
Spectral items
Tokens for:
Wisdom stones
Devenian crystals
Always prioritize buying Devenian crystals from Shugo rewards.
Think of it this way: 1 crystal = 1 combat power via your boards.
Step 6: Pantheon = Free Passive Stats
Pantheon statues, colossi, and frameworks all give passive stat boosts.
Even green and blue quality Pantheon pieces add up to a lot of free power over time. Don't ignore this system.
Step 7: The 1500–1600 Gear Score Wall
After doing:
Sealed dungeons
Strongholds
Feathers
Class runes
Shugo
Pantheon
You should be around 1500–1600 gear score.
If you're stuck:
Upgrade your two bracelets to +10
You won't replace these for a long time, so it's a safe investment.
Step 8: Daily Abyss Farming and Abyss Gear
You can now teleport directly to Abyss rifts:
Farm mobs for 5 minutes
Earn 5,000–10,000 Abyss Points per run (class dependent)
You should also:
Do Command Merchant missions
Keep doing Supply Requests
PvP if you like
What to Buy with Abyss Points?
Priority:
Accessories (rings, earrings, necklace) – very hard to replace later
Weapon – great power spike if you're unlucky with drops
Accessories are especially good long-term investments. Many high-geared players still use the ones they bought early on.
Step 9: Nightmare, Ascension, and Raids (Weekly Power)
Nightmare (14 runs per week)
Clear each difficulty 4 times
First clears give bonus currency
Use that currency to buy Devenian crystals
This is one of the best PvE power sources in the game
Ascension Trial & Raid (3 runs each)
Only do Normal, not Easy
You get traces you can morph
10% chance to get powerful items that add combat power
Even if unlucky, keep doing them weekly
Your goal during this phase is to reach ~1700 gear score.
Step 10: Transcendence and Arcana Cards
At around 1650–1700+, you can start Transcendence.
These are timed, graded dungeons
You must get S rank to progress
Stages 1–2 drop common and rare cards
Rare (green) cards give +40 item levels each
You have 5 cards total:
Realistically, you'll get about 180–200 gear score just from cards early on
Later:
Blue cards = +60
Unique cards = +80
Your goal:
Get all cards to green first
Then push higher stages to start getting blue cards
This alone can push you close to 1900–2000+.
Step 11: Vakron's Sky Island (The 1700 → 2200 Fast Track)
Once you're around 1800+, start running Vakron's Sky Island.
Make your own group (set 1800+ requirement)
Even higher-geared players will join
Vakron gear is very strong and very efficient to farm
What to do:
Get your missing pieces from the cube
Upgrade:
Weapon / Guard to +10 for damage
Other pieces to +10 for defense
Spam Vakron until:
You're sick of it
Or you're around 2200 gear score
This is the fastest jump in the entire gearing process.
Step 12: From 2200 to 2400 with Blue Cards and Unique Arcana
Now you:
Spam Transcendence 6 on Deus and Archanis
Get 4 blue cards (Grail comes later)
That's +80 combat power right there
Crafting a Unique Arcana Card
You need:
5 Mysterious Crystals
5 million kina
How to get crystals:
Season → Challenges → Tower of Trials (via Ascension score)
Season Shop (Growth tab)
Or by transmuting/extracting Arcana cards
Craft the card:
Choose your stat focus
Choose Grail
Choose the spell
Roll 3 main effects
When equipped:
Unique Arcana = +80 combat power
With blue cards + unique, you'll have ~320 combat power from cards alone
At this point, you should be around 2400+.
Step 13: Fire Temple and Ferocious Horn Den
At 2400+, you can run Fire Temple:
Go for:
Your weapon (huge power spike, rare drop)
Earrings, rings, necklaces
The necklace is often better than many alternatives
You can also run Ferocious Horn Den:
7 runs total
1% chance for strong uniques
Guaranteed level 67 gear drops if you still need pieces
Final Thoughts: Enjoy the Grind
Getting to 2400+ in Aion 2 Items is not easy. It's a long, system-driven grind—but it's also extremely rewarding when you see your character's power climb step by step.
The real secret is:
Build permanent systems (boards, cards, pantheon, belt, amulet)
Farm Abyss and Vakron smartly
Do your weekly and daily content consistently
From here, the road to 2500, 2600, and eventually 3000 opens up—but that's a guide for another day.
Good luck, enjoy the grind, and may your drops be blessed.
