For two weeks in November, however, AION 2 Global is asking its entire international community to work towards the same objective.
NC has announced Daeva Bootcamp, a cooperative PvE event beginning November 4, 2026. Players across Europe, North America East, North America West, South America and Asia will contribute eligible dungeon clears towards five shared milestones, culminating in a target of 7 million completed dungeons.
As each milestone is reached, NC will distribute rewards to Global players through in-game account mail. If the community completes all five, the combined rewards will include 14 Instant Clear Tickets, nine Intermediate Training Arcana and 35 Resurrection Stones.
It is an ambitious target, but the idea is refreshingly simple. Rather than competing against other regions or racing for an individual ranking, players will contribute towards the same reward pool while preparing for Sanctuary Raid: Ludra, which returns on November 4.
There is one important catch: only six specific dungeons count towards the event, and Ludra itself is not among them.
How Daeva Bootcamp Works: Dates and Eligible Dungeons
Daeva Bootcamp runs from November 4 at 15:00 CET until November 18 at 08:59 CET. NC lists the equivalent Pacific schedule as November 4 at 06:00 PST through November 17 at 23:59 PST.
During that period, successful clears of eligible Conquest and Transcendence dungeons will contribute to one combined Global total. The five participating regions do not have separate seven-million-clear targets; their progress is counted together.
NC has identified the following six dungeons:
| Dungeon | Content Type | Eligible Difficulty |
|---|---|---|
| Krao Cave | Conquest | Normal and Hard |
| Draupnir | Conquest | Normal and Hard |
| Urugugu Canyon | Conquest | Normal and Hard |
| Vakron Sky Island | Conquest | Normal and Hard |
| Shattered Arkanis | Transcendence | All stages |
| Deus Research Base | Transcendence | All stages |
That list is particularly encouraging for players who are not yet equipped for the most demanding versions of AION 2's endgame encounters. Both Normal and Hard Conquest clears qualify, while every stage of the two named Transcendence dungeons is eligible.
For example, Hard Mode Krao Cave and Draupnir require Item Level 2,600, with a four-minute boss Frenzy timer and a limit of three revives per player. Our Krao Cave and Draupnir Hard Mode Guide explains those requirements and the additional rewards available to stronger groups.
The newer Hard Mode versions of Urugugu Canyon and Vakron Sky Island raise the minimum Item Level to 2,700. Their mechanics and progression rewards are covered in our Urugugu and Vakron Hard Mode Guide.
But players should not confuse those Hard Mode entry requirements with the rules for Daeva Bootcamp itself. The event does not require everyone to reach Item Level 2,700, and NC has not announced additional milestone credit for completing harder difficulties.
A successful eligible Normal Mode clear contributes to the shared goal under the announced rules. That gives less powerful characters an opportunity to participate without attempting content they are not ready to survive.
Interestingly, Sanctuary Raid: Ludra is excluded from the list. The Bootcamp event accompanies the raid's return, but NC has not identified Ludra clears as a way to advance its dungeon milestones.
Ludra's revised encounter will offer Normal Mode at Item Level 2,800 and Hard Mode at 3,000, alongside a separate regional first-clear competition. Our Ludra Raid Preview covers those requirements and the rewards for the first successful Hard Mode parties.
Daeva Bootcamp is a different kind of event. It is designed around collective PvE activity rather than a race to defeat a single boss.
All Five Daeva Bootcamp Milestones and Rewards
The community begins working towards its first reward package at 500,000 dungeon clears. Further packages unlock at 1.25 million, 3 million, 5 million and finally 7 million clears.
NC has confirmed the exact contents of each milestone:
| Global Dungeon Clears | Instant Clear Tickets | Intermediate Training Arcana | Resurrection Stones |
|---|---|---|---|
| 500,000 | 2 | 1 | 5 |
| 1,250,000 | 2 | 1 | 5 |
| 3,000,000 | 2 | 2 | 5 |
| 5,000,000 | 3 | 2 | 10 |
| 7,000,000 | 5 | 3 | 10 |
| Total | 14 | 9 | 35 |
The rewards are cumulative. Reaching the final seven-million-clear milestone would unlock all five packages, not merely the items listed in the final row.
There is no guarantee that the community will reach seven million clears. The totals above represent everything available if all milestones are completed before the event closes.
NC says rewards will be delivered to Global players through in-game account mail as each milestone is reached. The announcement does not specify a personal dungeon-clear quota or an individual ranking requirement for receiving those shared rewards.
It also does not provide a detailed explanation of every possible account eligibility condition. Players should therefore follow the final official distribution instructions rather than assume rules that have not been announced.
There is an important distinction between the end of the event and the final reward delivery deadline.
| Event Deadline | European Time |
|---|---|
| Dungeon contribution ends | November 18, 08:59 CET |
| Latest announced reward distribution | November 19, 08:59 CET |
The second date is calculated from NC's official distribution deadline of November 18 at 23:59 PST. It allows the developer additional time to distribute unlocked milestone packages after the dungeon contribution window has closed.
Players should not interpret the later mail deadline as an extension of the time available to complete dungeons.
The three reward types also serve different purposes. Instant Clear Tickets can save time in supported content, Intermediate Training Arcana provide a progression resource, and Resurrection Stones are useful consumables for difficult encounters.
However, NC's event notice does not specify every compatible activity for the Instant Clear Tickets or every usage restriction attached to the other items. Those details should be checked through the actual item descriptions in the Global client.
The developer has likewise not confirmed whether using an Instant Clear Ticket counts as a dungeon completion towards Daeva Bootcamp. Until that is clarified, players should not assume they can advance the event simply by spending instant-clear items.
How to Help the Community Without Wasting Dungeon Resources
Seven million clears is an impressive number, and community events have a habit of making perfectly sensible players consider repeating the same activity until they can perform it with their eyes closed.
Fortunately, there is no need to abandon ordinary character progression simply to contribute.
The best practical approach is to choose eligible dungeons that your group can complete reliably while still pursuing equipment upgrades and other useful rewards.
Players developing their first serious endgame equipment set may prefer Normal Conquest content. Stronger characters can continue farming Hard Mode encounters for Ariel Fragments, crafting materials and better equipment opportunities. Transcendence players can contribute through supported stages of Shattered Arkanis and Deus Research Base.
Our Fast Gearing Guide explains why consistent progression through appropriate content is generally more useful than exhausting resources on equipment that will soon be replaced.
There is also an important difference between completing a dungeon and claiming its reward.
AION 2 uses Odyle Energy to regulate reward collection from eligible Expedition and Transcendence cubes. A character may be capable of clearing a dungeon without having enough Energy to claim another valuable reward afterwards.
As our Odyle Energy Guide explains, understanding regeneration and storage limits can significantly improve the efficiency of ordinary dungeon farming.
NC's Bootcamp announcement refers to successful dungeon clears. It does not explicitly state that players must spend Odyle Energy or open a reward cube for that clear to count towards the community milestone.
We should therefore avoid presenting reward claims as a confirmed participation requirement. Players can monitor their normal progression needs while waiting for any additional clarification from NC.
Other parts of the weekly routine remain important too. Limited shop purchases, Daeva Pass objectives and other recurring activities still compete for a character's time. Our Weekly Reset Guide provides a broader checklist for keeping those systems organised.
One final recommendation is especially simple: check your in-game account mail regularly during the event. NC plans to send milestone rewards as the targets are reached, rather than distributing every package at once after November 18.
The Bootcamp notice does not specify a separate mail expiration period. Players should not assume that the seven-day deadline from the unrelated Odyle Energy Boost promotion automatically applies here. The safest approach is to claim delivered items promptly and follow their individual in-game descriptions.
In many ways, Daeva Bootcamp is a fitting celebration of Ludra's return. The Sanctuary raid offers a challenge for experienced groups, complete with a competition for the first Hard Mode clears. The wider community event gives everyone else a shared objective with a much broader range of participating characters.
Whether the Global player base can reach seven million eligible clears remains to be seen. NC has not announced a guaranteed final reward package independent of community progress, and the event's success will depend on how actively players participate across its five regions.
But the appeal is straightforward. Players who would ordinarily spend their evenings running dungeons for personal progression will now contribute to a much larger objective at the same time.
For a series built around bitter faction rivalries, competing servers and the occasional disagreement over dungeon loot, that is a rather pleasant change of pace.
Atreia's warriors may not agree on much.
For the next two weeks, at least, they can agree that seven million defeated dungeons would be a very satisfying result.
