AION 2

AION 2 starter builds for every class

Updated 2026-10-12 · checked against Global launch (client 2.0.5.0)

Everyone gets every skill at level 1, so a character’s build is where its skill points, Daevanion board points and stigma points go. These pages work that out for each class and four play styles:

• DPS: the most damage, survival only where it is nearly free.
• Tanky: HP, Damage Tolerance, Defense, healing and the skills that hold Enmity.
• Balanced: an even split, for open-world farming and solo play.
• PvP: the PvP Damage Boost and Tolerance values, Status Effect Resist and crowd-control chances.

Each page plans all three together at any character level up to 45, shows why each point went where it did, lays out a starter path on the four skill boards, picks a stigma for each of the four slots as they open, and lists the skills worth hoping for when gear rolls a skill line.

These are not meta builds. They are rough starting points worked out from the skills’ own numbers, and they ignore rotations, combos and how fights actually play out. Skill resets are free, so try one and adjust. The pages are a work in progress and will be updated as the builds are tested; if you have an idea or a correction, email us from the contact page.
