What Is the Abyss in AION 2? High-Risk PvP Warfare Explained
Published 2026-09-293 min read
The Abyss is AION 2's vertical warzone — air and ground combat, teleports, time limits, kills that pay Abyss Points and deaths that wipe them.
The Abyss is AION 2's endgame warzone: one vertical battlefield combining air and ground combat, structured by teleports and time limits, with the series' harshest death penalty attached to every fight.
How the Abyss Works
Air and ground combat share the same space — wings above, blades below — and teleports plus time limits keep the war moving. Kills are the objective, and every kill pays.
Points, Gear and the Death Tax
Kills pay Abyss Points, the currency that buys top-tier gear, wings, military ranks and transformation access. The tax: death wipes your accumulated points. Bank through the safe channels in the AP farming guide before you gamble in open warfare — or read what the points are worth first in the Abyss Points explainer.
It's the purest expression of AION's faction war: high stakes, permanent consequences, zero spectator seats. The Abyss sits alongside three bracketed modes — the arena, battlefield and rifts — all mapped in the PvP modes guide.
