Aion 2 Weapon Upgrade Guide: Increase Your DPS Fast

[NoahbAkeR440]

Core Upgrade Strategies
1. Weapon-First Philosophy

Invest your enhancement stones in your weapon before touching armor. A leveled-up weapon gives a much bigger damage boost than early armor upgrades, which mostly protect you from minor hits. Faster kills mean more loot and faster level progression.

2. Target Native Damage Boosts

High-tier weapons often have a Weapon Damage Boost percentage. Look for rolls of 11% or higher—this directly multiplies your DPS and scales extremely well in late-game content.

3. Selective Gear Rolling

When upgrading, focus on stats that amplify damage:

Might – scales your attack output.
Combat Speed – hits more frequently.
Multi-Hit Chance – reduces cooldowns and adds burst damage.

Avoid random rolls that don’t contribute to your main DPS build.

4. Save Your Odal

Don’t waste Odal on early weapon gambling. The main story gives a level 57 class weapon, which outperforms most early-game weapons. Focus on resources that will benefit you long-term, not just temporary spikes.

Essential Systems for Power Gains
1. Enchantment Stones

Open the enhancement window (Hotkey: N) to level up your weapon. Stones come from:

Extracting unwanted gear
Completing Sealed Dungeons

Consistent upgrades here yield noticeable DPS gains.

2. Devenian (Deanian) Boards

Complete Sealed Dungeons and Regional Quests to earn Devenian points. These points improve your skill boards, granting massive passive combat power boosts that scale with your weapon damage.

3. Mana Stone Tweaking

Focus on a few green stat rolls that complement your DPS build:

Attack – raw damage increase
Crit – more frequent critical hits

Don’t over-invest early—save heavy tweaks for endgame weapons.

4. DPS Macros

Use macros to automate skill rotations. Test your rotation on a DPS dummy with about 50ms delay (adjust based on your ping) to optimize sustained damage. Perfect execution can increase your damage output more than raw stats alone.

Community Insights on Gearing

The Aion 2 community agrees: the grind is long, but focusing on horizontal progression content (like dungeons, boards, and rotations) is key to sustained DPS.

“You’ll get a level 57 class weapon from the main story anyway. Anything you gamble for earlier will be replaced.”

“Pour your enhancement stones into your weapon first. This increases your kill speed, which directly correlates to how fast you gain items.”
