Leveling progress

0 / 23 done

Tick steps as you go. Progress is saved in this browser, separately for each class.

Start Route Follow yellow (main story) quests only. Side content scales with your level, so nothing is lost by doing it later.
Lv 1 Class Level your two no-cooldown attacks first: Earth's Retribution (restores MP) and Judgment Thunder. Play in target mode — it keeps the basic attack going between skills, and that is your mana.
After prologue Route Collect 40 feathers (120 shards) for an early amulet upgrade.
Lv ~6 Class Chain of Torment marks the target; Condemnation only hits a target under Chain of Torment — put both in one hotbar line with Chain at the bottom.
Lv 8 Class First specializations: +20% [Discharge] Chain Skill trigger chance, Deals up to 12% more damage when less targets are hit, +3s Damage over Time, -15% target Defense for duration of Damage over Time.
Lv 12 Route Daevanion unlocks (Nezekan board). Blue nodes = +1 skill level — see your class step below.
Lv 9–18 Class Bolt for burst and stagger (take +30% Skill Speed); Healing Light for yourself. Raise attack skills, not heals — a healing-focused Cleric levels slowly.
Lv 15 / 20 / 25 Route Clear hideouts that are on your route — first clears give Enhance Stones and Daevanion Crystals.
~Lv 17 Route Amulet +10, then Morph it into the blue version.
Any time Route Weapon to ~+10 — the biggest damage jump while leveling. Don't push further before the cap.
Lv 20 Route Zikel board opens — same node priority as before.
Lv 21 Class Passive Earth's Grace (Critical Damage and Accuracy) — straight to 10 the moment you learn it.
Lv ~22 Route Ascension → stigmas unlock (4 slots in global Season 1). The slots open one at a time at levels 22, 27, 32 and 37 — you can learn more stigmas, but only that many fit on the bar. Which ones — see your class step.
Lv 22 Class Stigmas: one point into Summon Resurrection, then Noble Aura, Earth Punishment, Benevolence and Absolution to 5.
Acts 2–3 Route Story only — don't get distracted by the map.
Lv 30 Route Vaizel board opens (critical damage).
Act 4 Route Side quests and solo dungeons are worth doing again here.
Lv 40 Route Triniel board opens (multi-hit; mostly PvP — can wait). Krao Cave expects about 1000 Gear Score.
Lv 45 Route Azphel board opens — PvP Damage Boost and Tolerance only, no skill nodes. For PvE keep filling the first four boards; global has no Ariel board.
Cap Class Both clicks at 10 by level 25; then Condemnation, Bolt and Healing Light. Before group dungeons get Healing Light to 16.
Cap Route Shugo activities for the full level-cap reward set (gold gear, materials).
Cap Route Sweep the map: question marks, bonfires, green quests, hidden cubes, feathers. Turn in feathers — altar Lv 30 gives a title.
Daily Route Nightmare entry, Transformation floors as your GS allows, dungeons T2 before T3 (watch your energy).

Overview

In AION 2 dungeons the Cleric is a healer that has to deal damage: rewards depend on your contribution, and a Cleric who only heals can walk out with nothing. Your party has plenty of dodges and invulnerabilities of its own — top people up after hits, and put everything else into damage.

The build in one sentence

Earth Punishment makes Condemnation always crit, and a crit resets Condemnation — so it fires with no cooldown, while Divine Aura, Bolt and Noble Aura add damage on top.

This mode follows Kaeria's Cleric PvE video guide (Russian, recorded on the Taiwan client on September 28; she says it applies to global too), checked against the video frames on September 30, and against Lucia's guide (English, global, October 5 — a World's First Rank 1 Cleric at 2,160 item level). Skill picks are reversible for free — only arcana cost resources.

Patch Season 1. The build is checked against guides from the global servers: 4 stigmas, cap 20.

Overview

In PvP the Cleric keeps the PvE core — Condemnation reset by crits, Judgment Thunder, the heals — and changes what the stigmas and a few picks are for: crowd control, cutting the enemy's healing, and keeping the party alive through a burst.

The build in one sentence

Buff with Prayer of Amplification and Light of Protection, put Voice of Doom on the healer or the tank you are killing, and save Yustiel's Power for the moment the enemy bursts.

This mode follows the PvP part of Lucia's Cleric guide (English, global, October 5 — a World's First Rank 1 Cleric): stigmas for duels and group fights and the picks she changes for PvP. She promised a separate video on PvP combos; until then the rotation is the PvE one.

Patch Season 1. The build is checked against guides from the global servers: 4 stigmas, cap 20.

Global Season 1: what changes

Global servers open on October 5, 2026 (Founder's early access from September 30). What that means for the Cleric:

4 stigma slots, capped at 20. Kaeria's Taiwan bar has more; the four in this guide are her picks for global. The level-25 tiers (such as Double Chance on Light of Protection) don't exist here.
You are paid for damage. Dungeon rewards depend on your contribution, so a Cleric who only heals can leave with nothing — this whole build is about dealing damage while healing on the side.
Bigger groups (5-player expeditions, 10-player sanctuaries): with a Chanter in the party your mantra doesn't stack with theirs — swap Light of Protection out.
Lower ping than on Taiwan: animations cancel better, so the macro can weave more basic attacks.

Active skills and passives are identical in the global and KR/TW data; stigmas lose their level-25 tier. The source video was recorded on the Taiwan client with English skill names.

Skills

Almost everything goes into damage. The heals that matter need 16: Healing Light and Radiant Recovery.

Leveling order (Lucia): first the two skills you weave — Earth's Retribution and Judgment Thunder — then Condemnation, then the heals. After the regional quests at 45 every skill should be 12 or higher; from there take the specializations and push the heals.

Condemnation Core
16 20

The most important skill on your bar: +12% on a single target and a cooldown reset on crit. At 20 add MP if mana is short, Multi-Hit if not.

Skill levels and most picks are the same as in PvE. What changes for PvP:

Passives

Empyrean Lord's Grace — the most important one: Critical Damage, Double Chance and extra damage on every hit. As high as you can.
Earth's Grace — used to buff the party, now only you; still worth leveling.
Healing Enhancement — heal boost as a share of your Attack, so a Cleric builds Attack rather than Defense.
Radiant Benediction — heals nearby allies on attacks; take it if you go all-in on damage.
Warm Benediction and Immortal Veil are fine to have; Empyrean Lords' Benediction is for PvP.

Lucia levels these three first, before any other passive: Empyrean Lord's Grace, Healing Enhancement and Earth's Grace. Immortal Veil helps early and falls off once your armor scales.

First days (aLuckyRO): level Radiant Benediction — it heals the whole party every few seconds while they hit — and Healing Enhancement first. The crit passives pay off only once your gear gives Critical Hit; until then you barely crit.

Gear & stats

Gear lines: Might (attack and heal), Combat Speed, Damage Boost; Weapon Damage Boost and Precision are strong too. Skip status resists, evasion and defensive lines in PvE.
Weapon and guard (Lucia): Weapon Damage Boost, Might, Combat Speed, Precision. Gloves: Combat Speed; boots: Movement Speed. Accessories: Combat Speed, Might and Precision, plus one line for Earth's Grace or Empyrean Lord's Grace.
Rings: craft them as soon as you can — crafted rings have one more line for active skills. Fill every line with active skills: Condemnation, Radiant Recovery, Judgment Thunder, and Healing Light or Divine Aura.
Stats: Destruction, Wisdom (Double Chance), Illusion (cooldowns), Time (Combat Speed), Freedom (accuracy), plus Death (Critical Hit) — Kaeria's own pick, a Cleric is always short on crit; Might, Precision, Constitution. Lucia's four: Time, Illusion, Space, Destruction.
For the Ludra raid: at least 1,000 Accuracy and 1,000 Critical Hit.
Wings: Talisra Wings (Attack 60, Defense 400, Accuracy 35, −4% cooldowns) from the season shop for about 250,000 season points — save the points for them.

Genus Insight

Get every pet to level 3 early: killing pets you have leveled gives the crystals for these lines. Lucia's picks for each wheel:

Slot	Take
1, 5	Attack Bonus (5: or Max Attack)
2, 8	HP
3, 6, 9	Accuracy, or Block if your accuracy is already high
4	The damage line of that wheel: Damage Boost, Perfect Chance, Back Attack Damage
7	Regeneration or Endurance
Special	Double Chance

Roll for the highest value and lock a line only when it is close to the maximum — and never before the wheel is level 9–10.

Gear & stats

Gear lines as in PvE — Weapon Damage Boost, Might, Combat Speed, Precision on the weapon and guard; accessories Combat Speed, Might, Precision.
Genus Insight: Critical Hit Resist instead of HP on slot 2, and Front Attack Damage Boost on the damage slot of that wheel — in PvP you face the target.
Azphel, the level-45 Daevanion board, is all PvP Damage Boost and Tolerance — fill it for PvP.

Arcana

Arcana	Set / stat	Roll for
Chalice	Vigor (Combat Speed)	Anything that takes your key skills to 16 → 20
Parchment	Destiny or Life	Condemnation, Radiant Recovery, Earth's Retribution, Bolt
Compass	Death or Freedom	Lightning Strike Scattershot, Healing Light, Divine Aura, Judgment Thunder
Bell	Destruction	Empyrean Lord's Grace (avoid Survival Willpower)
Mirror	Wisdom (damage) or Illusion (cooldowns)	Earth's Grace, Healing Enhancement

Set bonuses: collect 2 + 2, or four cards of Primal Vigor (+60 PvE Attack with two, +150 with four, while your HP is 70% or more). Early on a card with the right skills beats a card from the right set — fix the sets later.

Daevanion boards

Daevanion takes your skills from 10 to 14 and adds stats. Each blue node gives +1 level to its skill.

Priority: orange Cooldown and Combat Speed nodes first, then Attack and Critical, then the blue skill nodes, then the defensive orange nodes, passives last.
Critical Damage Tolerance and Multi-Hit Resist do nothing in PvE — bosses don't crit or multi-hit.
Resetting a board is cheap, and you will rebuild it many times.
Lucia's order: on Nezekan and Zikel take all four corners and your skills; on Vaizel and Triniel skip the corners and go straight for the active skills you use.
Azphel (level 45) is all PvP Damage Boost and Tolerance — take it for PvP.
No Ariel on global: there are five boards, and the level-45 one, Azphel, gives only PvP Damage Boost and Tolerance — in PvE finish the first four.

Board	Unlock	Orange nodes
Nezekan	Lv 12	Combat Speed, Cooldown Reduction
Zikel	Lv 20	Damage Boost, Damage Tolerance
Vaizel	Lv 30	Critical Damage Boost and Tolerance
Triniel	Lv 40	Multi-Hit Chance and Resist
Azphel	Lv 45	PvP Damage Boost and Tolerance — no skill nodes

With a Chanter in the party: replace Light of Protection with Absolution, another heal or Summon Resurrection.

Root and Assault Mark have no use in PvE.

Macro

Lucia's global setup: only the in-game macro, two steps, and two hotbar lines read from her hotbar (frame 13:10). In AION 2 the bottom slot of a line has the highest priority; the cards show each line top to bottom as in the game.

1. Hotbar lines

QPrayer line

4 Condemnation
3 Chain of Torment
2 Earth Punishment
1 Prayer of Amplification

In-game order, top to bottom. 1 = highest priority — the bottom slot.

Prayer whenever it is ready, then Earth Punishment and Chain of Torment, so every Condemnation crits and resets. Keep Light of Protection out of the line: it is a toggle, and every second press would switch it off.

TDivine Aura line

2 Judgment Thunder
1 Divine Aura

In-game order, top to bottom. 1 = highest priority — the bottom slot.

The aura when it is ready, Judgment Thunder in between — after each Judgment Thunder Condemnation can crit and reset again.

Outside the macro — the rest of her bar:

1Debuff line

2 Debilitating Mark
1 Lightning Strike Scattershot

In-game order, top to bottom. 1 = highest priority — the bottom slot.

Lightning Strike Scattershot on a staggered boss, otherwise Debilitating Mark — press it on cooldown.

EHeal line

2 Healing Light
1 Light of Regeneration

In-game order, top to bottom. 1 = highest priority — the bottom slot.

Light of Regeneration whenever it is ready, Healing Light (three charges) for the rest.

Own keysLMB Earth's Retribution, 3 Radiant Recovery, 4 Bolt, 5 Light of Protection (a toggle — switch it on once), 8 Noble Aura.

2. In-game macro

On RMB, every step with a 10 ms delay:

1Prayer linePrayer of Amplification
2Divine Aura lineDivine Aura

3. Keys

HoldThe macro on RMB together with Earth's Retribution on LMB — the basic attack, Judgment Thunder and Condemnation weave until the sequence starts again.
By handThe Debuff line on cooldown; the Heal line and Radiant Recovery when someone just took a hit; fully charged Bolt; Noble Aura on cooldown.

Lucia notes that a third-party macro does more, but she sticks to the in-game one.

Another option: Kaeria's macro (Taiwan client)

Seven steps and three lines, made for a high ping; the stagger skill is in the macro.

3Condemnation line

3 Chain of Torment
2 Condemnation
1 Earth Punishment

In-game order, top to bottom. 1 = highest priority — the bottom slot.

Earth Punishment goes first so that Condemnation always crits and resets; Chain of Torment keeps the mark that Condemnation needs.

2Divine Aura line

4 Judgment Thunder
3 Light of Regeneration
2 Debilitating Mark
1 Divine Aura

In-game order, top to bottom. 1 = highest priority — the bottom slot.

The aura and the debuff whenever they are ready; Judgment Thunder fills the rest.

1Stagger

1 Lightning Strike Scattershot

In-game order, top to bottom. 1 = highest priority — the bottom slot.

Works only on a staggered boss, so most of the time this step is skipped.

1Earth's Retributionbasic attack
2Line 2Divine Aura
3Line 3Condemnation
4Line 1stagger
5Line 3
6Line 1
7Line 1

HoldThe macro on RMB together with 3 (the Condemnation line); on a staggered boss release 3 so Lightning Strike Scattershot gets through.
By handHealing Light (4), Radiant Recovery (Q), charged Bolt (E), Prayer of Amplification on cooldown.

On global, with lower ping than on Taiwan, animations cancel better and you can weave a bit more Earth's Retribution.

Recap

Skills: Condemnation, Radiant Recovery, Divine Aura, Bolt 16 → 20; Judgment Thunder, Lightning Strike Scattershot, Healing Light 16; the rest 12–14.
Stigmas: Earth Punishment, Light of Protection, Prayer of Amplification (all three to 20), Noble Aura; with a Chanter swap Light of Protection for Absolution.
Play: deal damage for contribution; heal only the people who just got hit.

Recap

Skills: as in PvE; Chain of Torment and Debilitating Mark take their crowd-control picks, Earth's Retribution ignores Block and Evasion at 20.
Stigmas: Prayer of Amplification, Light of Protection, Yustiel's Power, Voice of Doom; in group PvP Absolution instead of Voice of Doom.
Gear: PvE lines; Critical Hit Resist and Front Attack Damage on Genus Insight, the Azphel board.

Overview

The Cleric is the healer, but while leveling it plays as a ranged damage dealer: Chain of Torment marks the target, Condemnation punishes it, and the passive Radiant Benediction heals you and the party on every hit. Heal only when you need to.

Leveling in one sentence

Hold Earth's Retribution for mana, spam the Chain line with the in-game macro, and put your skill points into attacks rather than heals.

Patch Season 1. The build is checked against guides from the global servers: 4 stigmas, cap 20.

How to fight while leveling

Packs: Chain of Torment (hits up to 4) → Condemnation → Divine Aura with the AoE pick → Judgment Thunder.
Elites: Debilitating Mark (lower Defense) → Chain of Torment → Bolt charged → Condemnation.
Mana: target mode, and weave Earth's Retribution — it restores MP on every cast.
Low HP: Healing Light, and Radiant Benediction keeps ticking as long as you hit.
Staggered bosses: Lightning Strike Scattershot only works while the target is staggered.

Leveling macro

Grobs' early-game setup: one hotbar line and a one-slot in-game macro. In AION 2 the bottom slot of a line has the highest priority — the card shows the line top to bottom as in the game.

RMBChain line

4 Judgment Thunder
3 Condemnation
2 Debilitating Mark
1 Chain of Torment

In-game order, top to bottom. 1 = highest priority — the bottom slot.

Chain of Torment goes first so Condemnation can hit; Judgment Thunder has no cooldown and fills the gaps.

In-game macro (Skill window → Macro), delay 10 ms:

1Chain line10 ms
