Aion 2 Assassin Daevanion boards

Every class has five boards. Each is a grid of nodes: square nodes give stats that are the same for every class, and round nodes add +1 level to one named Assassin skill. The table shows when a board opens, what it costs to fill and how open it is for sampled level 45 Assassins.

Client-data Source Opening levels and point totals are MetaBot's reading of the Global client, since NC has published no board table. Open rates are Official-sample numbers. Source: official AION 2 character pages, sampled 2026-10-16, n=200. Azphel uses its own currency, so its 232 points are separate from the 570 for the first four boards.

Route summary

  1. Take the skill nodes for your core skills first. Each adds +1 level to a named skill. The Assassin build ranks the skills worth leveling.
  2. Path to the 4-point corners. They carry the board's headline stats, from Combat Speed and Cooldown Reduction on Nezekan to Multi-hit Chance and Multi-hit Resist on Triniel. The cheapest corner costs 14 to 19 points including the path.
  3. Do not spread points across boards. Finish a board's best nodes before you open the next.
  4. Leave Azphel for later, or for PvP. It has no skill nodes. See the Assassin PvP build.

Editorial Source The order is common advice across guides, built on the point costs above. You earn 4 crystals per level from level 12, 136 by level 45, plus sealed dungeons and regional quests. The Daevanion guide lists every source of points.
