AION 2 is an MMORPG set in the land of Atreia, where you play as a Daeva. Daevas can fly using wings, which comes in handy as you explore the vast landscapes. Right from the start, you’ll carve your own path among two factions while tackling the evil threatening this vibrant world.
Keep in mind that AION 2 features two factions, each with its unique storyline but similar quests. Here, we’ll focus on the Elyos perspective.

Elyos
Starting your adventure with the Elyos faction, your character will initially be trapped in Ishtar’s fortress. You begin as Hithanya, navigating through the fortress in search of Phernos.
Make your way through the corridor, confronting enemies along the way. Eventually, you’ll reach a door where more foes await. Inside, you’ll find several capsules—destroy them one at a time until you locate Hithanya.
Afterward, enter the character creation menu where you can design your avatar and choose a weapon from a fallen soldier nearby. Get ready to assist Hithanya in the upcoming battles.
Your first boss fight is against Mutated Bargott. This enemy isn’t too tough; just let Hithanya soak up most of the damage while you chip away at its health.
Post-battle, Hithanya departs, and you find yourself in a canyon. Keep pushing forward, engaging with any foes you encounter.
Eventually, you’ll reach the Dawn Legion Forward Base. Speak to Silvar, who will direct you to Nania for your next steps. Nania will send you to Eaetos, who points you toward the Kibelisk.
The Dawn Legion Forward Base
After proving you aren’t a Sura by activating the Kibelisk, find Robin for your next instructions. Speak to Arisel at the bench to receive new gear.
You’ll soon receive a transmission on your Selvis from Robin requesting your help to scout the Damiru Fortress. Be sure to equip your new gear beforehand.
In this area, you’ll face three Kerubar enemies. Search the nearby crates for supplies as you battle through. At the third location, look for useful items before heading back to discuss your findings with Nania.
Nania will upgrade your gear and direct you to Ryan. He’ll mention a nearby lake where you need to defeat at least four Dratona enemies.
Once you’ve taken down the Dratona, find Arno. He’ll want you to destroy at least three Balaur Watchstones as well as four Draconute enemies lurking by the lake.
Follow the quest marker to a tree with a face, where you’ll discover a portal leading directly to the lake.
The Lake
Upon reaching the lake, dive underwater and follow the illuminated pillars to locate the Lake Guardian.
Defeating the Lake Guardian sends you to the Dream where you’ll meet Asahr. Here, you’ll need to complete three trials which require flight to touch a mirror.
After the trials, converse with Asahr, then teleport back to Daminu tree. You’ll need to utilize a teleport scroll taught in the tutorial to get back to base.
Speak with Nania at the base, who’ll request you to check on survivors at the updraft. One survivor requires healing; find three Fenix Eggs in the vicinity. Expect to encounter some Fenix enemies along the way, but they aren’t too challenging.
Escape Plan
Enemies will attack during this segment, so defend yourself and check in with Nania after the skirmish. She’ll share information about the windstream, which can expedite your return to base.
As you prepare to leave with your faction, find Nania near the Balaur base. She’ll task you with defeating the Kobolds residing in the camp nearby.
After chatting with Nania again, she’ll guide you to the Draconute storage cave. Navigate through the cave towards the storage room to discover a legionnaire and plan your escape. Expect heavy resistance on the way out.
Return to base and inform Caelid about your findings. Following that, you’ll raid the Balaur Migzatu Brigade base where you need to collect bombs to destroy communication towers—target three in total.
After completing the mission, view the shocking scene at the upper part of the base, where you’ll automatically return to the Dawn Legion Forward Base. Speak to Eaetos, who urges you to hurry since the ship is about to leave.
Prepare for a few fights on your way to the ship, but you’ll reach it in due time.
Dawn Legion Base
After waking in recovery, converse with Nania and head to Caelid’s office, where you’ll find Phernos unconscious. Examine Caelid’s journal to gather information, then leave the room to seek supplies from Shuron.
He’ll direct you to Hart, where you can also find Nania. Speak with her about reporting to Etezia to repair your Selvis.
Kaidros is nearby and lets you choose a pet. Next, locate Nania again at the valley outpost.
At the designated area, interact with the Western Odyle Collector. After that, take down two Kalgolems in the vicinity.
Your next stop is Gabru at the Cantas Valley Base. He’ll ask you to look for Lebronus—using flight to locate him quickly will save time. Lebronus will instruct you on interacting with the Central Odyle Collector.
During this phase, you’ll be ambushed by the Balaur. They drop Dratona eggs, which will hatch into enemies you need to defeat.
Return to Lebronus after dispatching the foes and find the updraft that leads to a small sky island where Nania awaits. Speak with her and take the windstream from the sky island.
You’ll arrive at the Coastal Camp. There, talk to Luteros, who’ll ask you to accompany him to the coastal cave, where you’ll find a barrier stone.
Coastal Cave
Delve deeper into the cave, defeating foes until you reach the second barrier stone. Here, you’ll battle the High Priestess’s Illusion.
This illusion attacks with projectiles; it’s manageable for mages if you keep moving. If you’re a melee fighter, dodge those attacks carefully for a smoother victory.
After beating the illusion, progress further into the cave to face Sealed Sura—a more formidable boss. This fight requires patience due to its fast movements and unpredictable attacks.
Stay vigilant, avoid major attacks, and you’ll come out successful in this encounter.
