What Should You Do First in AION 2? Your Opening Week Plan

Published 2026-09-293 min read

AION 2's first week has a clear shape — story quests as the fast lane, Fire Temple at level 15, Dark Poeta at level 30, and a hard line on macro tools.

Open highlands at the fringe of a starting zone — week one is about momentum.

Your first week in AION 2 has a clear shape: run story quests as the fastest opening track, hit the Fire Temple solo tutorial at level 15, and step into Dark Poeta at level 30 — with PvP and casual tracks waiting whenever you want a change of pace.

The Four Playstyle Tracks

AION 2 sorts its content into four tracks: solo PvE, group PvE, competitive PvP and casual play. The PvE system supports solo challenges, 5-player parties and larger groups, so you can switch lanes without rebuilding your character.

The Early Milestones

  • Level 15 — Fire Temple: the classic dungeon returns as a solo tutorial in real mechanics
  • Level 30 — Dark Poeta: a group dungeon where coordination starts to matter, paying out high-end gear

One Warning Before You Optimize

Story quests are the fastest opening track, but when questing stops being efficient, the leveling guide shows where dungeon grinding takes over. And before you touch any macro or automation tool, read the macro and ban policy — the line between convenience and a banned account is sharper than in most MMOs.

The fundamentals live in the original beginner tips guide; start with the faction choice and gear ladder.
