AION 2 has a diverse roster of classes, each fulfilling different roles — tanking, melee or ranged DPS, magic DPS, summoner, healing/support, or hybrid support.
Depending on what content you target — solo/farming, group PvE/raids, or PvP — different classes and builds perform better. Below are recommended builds per class, covering core skills, gear stat priorities, and ideal playstyle.
Class Builds Recommendations
Templar — Tank / Survival / Group Backbone
Best for: Group PvE, boss raids, tank role, frontline control
Skills Rotation: Focus on threat generation, aggro maintenance, mitigation and crowd control. Use taunts/pulls and stun/aggro‑control skills to Aion 2 Kinah keep enemies off allies.
Stat Gear Priority: Maximize HP, defense, block/mitigation/resistances. Use sword + shield gear; heavy armor with high base HP/defense. If you're short on Kinah to get that ideal gear set faster, you can buy safely from MMOexp to speed up progression.
Why it works: Templar absorbs boss mechanics, protects group, ensures stable fights. Low damage output compared to pure DPS — trade‑off accepted for survivability.
Gladiator — Melee DPS / Off‑Tank / AoE Bruiser
Best for: Solo farming, group PvE (add clearing), PvP close‑range fights
Skills Rotation: Use spammable melee attacks + AoE pulls cleaves to clear mobs. Sustain through life‑steal and AoE heals during packs. For PvP, chain CC (knockdowns, stuns) + burst combos.
Stat Gear Priority: Balanced attack power, crit, HP, with emphasis on life‑steal, sustain gear, and defense. Greatsword or heavy melee weapons preferred.
Why it works: Gladiator combines decent durability with high AoE damage, making it effective for both leveling and group fights. Less risky than glass‑cannon DPS, more damage than tanks.
Assassin — Burst Melee DPS / Stealth / High Mobility
Best for: PvP, single‑target burst, quick farm or ambush‑style gameplay
Skills Rotation: Build marks/runes on targets, then detonate for burst (AoE or single‑target). Combine stealth, gap‑closers, and burst to eliminate priority targets. Good for ganks or hit‑and‑run tactics.
Stat Gear Priority: High attack power, crit, life‑steal or sustain. Use daggers or dual‑weapons; gear focused on Aion 2 buy Kinah burst and mobility rather than heavy defense.
Why it works: Assassin excels when positioning, timing, and burst are key. Great for players skilled at quick rotations and reactive combat. Lower survivability — avoid prolonged fights.
