The Sprint Character feature welcomes you with a fully equipped level 80 Daeva, so no more manual leveling is needed, letting you enter the fray immediately. New to AION? This means you can dive into action without waiting:

World Raid in Aphsaranta
Join the fight defending the Reian tribe and repel the Balaur. Stay cautious, for new formidable foes await: defeat the Apsu Corps villains and their ominous Attack Driller!
- Participants from level 81 are welcome in this raid.
- The raid commences 12 hours post the defeat of the world boss Adad.
- The raid kicks off only in the bases controlled by Elyos or Asmodians.
- The raid duration is 15 minutes.
- The raid concludes if the NPC trying to halt the Attack Drillers perishes.
Aphsaranta Treasure Hunt
The Aphsaranta Treasure Hunt now summons you at Lake Pledge. Only your swiftness and cunning can claim all the prizes. Do you have the prowess to seize it all?
Seize special teleporters and uncover Apsu’s Ruins Treasure Chests across Aphsaranta – but only for 15 minutes. Miss them? No worries, they'll reappear in 14 to 20 hours.
The first opening of Apsu's Ruins Treasure Chests grants a special buff. More treasure awaits if you use the teleporter reaching the final goal.
Matchmaking Improvements
But hold on: prepare for more modifications in Aphsaranta and the Lugbug Missions. Comprehensive change details are available in the patch notes. And if you're longing for a server that offers an unbeatable playing experience, keep an eye on Aion Riftshade, launching in Q1 2026, promising low ping, active GMs, and a cheat-free environment!
