Last reviewed:
AION 2 guides are organized into three stages: beginner (character creation, first dungeons, class selection), progression (leveling path, gear upgrades, faction introduction), and endgame (Abyss faction PvP, open-world sieges, world zone exploration). This AION 2 guides hub indexes the dedicated pages so readers can move from launch day through the Abyss unlock without losing context, and each linked page keeps the same research date of 2026-09-20 across all source references.

How to use this guide hub
Pick the stage that matches your current level and follow the links in order. Each linked page returns to this hub, so you can pivot between stages without losing your progression context. The hub mirrors the information architecture from the Site Plan, with beginner stage feeding progression stage, which feeds endgame stage. If a guide you expected to see is missing from this hub, it is intentionally routed elsewhere: Founder's Pack comparison lives on the Founder's Packs page (under Launch and Status), and PC specs live on the system requirements page (under Reference).
FAQ
Where should I start with AION 2 guides?
Start with the classes hub to pick a class, then open the leveling guide for the quest and dungeon priority. The beginner dungeons guide follows once group play unlocks.
When does the AION 2 endgame unlock?
The endgame (Abyss open-world PvP and faction sieges) unlocks at the level milestone confirmed on the Steam store page. The exact level number is addressed on the leveling guide page with the research date 2026-09-20.
Do the AION 2 guides cover PvP class tier lists?
Pre-launch PvP class tier lists are community speculation and not officially confirmed. The PvP basics guide explains the open-world PvP system and class suitability without locking in a definitive ranking.
Where can I find AION 2 system requirements?
System requirements live on the dedicated system requirements reference page, not in this hub, since it is a pre-launch setup task rather than a gameplay guide.
