AION 2 Subjugation War: Dredgion Depot Assaults and Ranks
Published 2026-09-293 min read
What the Subjugation War is in AION 2 — season-ranked assaults on the Dredgion Depot, the Balaur way station, with weekly tasks and rank-point payouts.

The Subjugation War is AION 2's season-ranked assault on Balaur territory: you push into the Dredgion Depot, destroy the base and annihilate its forces and commanders. It's one of the six pillars on the Season menu, and it's where the game's long war with the Balaur becomes repeatable, rank-paying content.
The Venue: a Dredgion Way Station
The Depot is a way station for Dredgions — the Balaur's flying battleships — used for transporting troops and bombarding Daeva strongholds (entry text, global build). The raid entry asks for level 45, a 2,000 item level check and a 4-player group (global build; the TW build lists the same venue as its Subjugation War stage, approximate).

Ranks, Points and Weekly Duty
Every assault pays rank points into your season standing, with weekly tasks layered on top of the season ladder — the same rhythm as the Awakening Battle on the other side of the Season menu. The reward tables follow the same rule as the rest of the season: best result counts, payout lands at the next reset.
If the 2,000 item-level gate is the blocker, the sealed dungeon tier and the conquest raid line are the catch-up paths. The open-world side of the same war — crash sites and world bosses — lives in the region boss guide.
