11Dying Dramata's Nest is an Expedition dungeon in AION 2 and the first new Expedition of Season 2. It opened on the Korean and Taiwanese service on January 21, 2026 with an Exploration version and Conquest Normal, and NCsoft placed it in Tier 4 of the Expedition ladder in its May 2026 announcement. The Korean name is 죽은 드라마타의 둥지.22As of October 7, 2026, NCsoft's global notices have not listed which Expedition dungeons are open in the global build that launched on October 5, 2026; they say that all instanced content, including dungeons, is available cross-server. Everything on this page describes the Korean and Taiwanese service unless it says otherwise.45At a Glance67DetailValueKorean name죽은 드라마타의 둥지TypeExpedition, Tier 4 in NCsoft's ladder (player-compiled tables pair it with Cradle of Nihility)PartyUp to five players (four until July 1, 2026)ModesExploration; Conquest Normal; Conquest Hard (since January 24, 2026)BossesBroodkeeper Nayatman, Manager Nasium, Decaying DurvatiAddedJanuary 21, 202689Entry Requirements910ModeMinimum item levelExploration2,800Conquest Normal2,800Conquest Hard3,0001112The item levels are those of the current game data and of a June 2026 player-compiled table; release-day write-ups listed 3,000 for both modes. Exploration has cost 40 Odyle Energy since April 8, 2026. Three days after launch NCsoft made Exploration and Conquest Normal easier, and on February 25 it returned half of the tickets and Odyle Energy spent on the nest between January 21 and 24.1213Route1415The run starts with a drop into water. White orbs underwater speed the party up and yellow orbs restore breath, so each player takes one or two and leaves the rest for the group. On land, the path to the first boss is thick with monsters. Past the second boss, the Kisk at the Dramata valley triggers a cutscene in which Dramata lays two poison fields that the party has to cross, and a second underwater stretch with knockback steam vents leads to the final boss. NCsoft raised the height at which falls in the boss areas count as fatal on August 19, 2026.1617Timeline1819Date (KR/TW)ChangeJanuary 21, 2026Exploration and Conquest Normal openJanuary 24, 2026Exploration and Conquest Normal made easier; Conquest Hard added with new achievementsJanuary 28, 2026Fixed Nasium's tracking blades appearing too often or too late; the nest now counts toward the weekly final boss kill limitFebruary 4, 2026Nasium's spinning blades disappear while he is staggeredFebruary 11, 2026Bosses drop Shining Ode; Sealed Philosopher's Stone replaced by Philosopher's Stone: Revelation; Nayatman fixes; Exploration and Normal boss levels lowered; Hard elite and boss damage reducedFebruary 25, 2026Fixed an interaction between Durvati's fear and the impact release; half of the tickets and Odyle Energy spent from January 21 to 24 returnedMarch 4, 2026Exploration gear chance set to half the Conquest rateMarch 11, 2026Philosopher's Stone: Revelation added to the Conquest guaranteed rewardsMarch 25, 2026Fragment: Marchutan's Trace added to the Conquest Odyle Energy CubeApril 8, 2026Exploration cost set to 40 Odyle Energy, its Unique-grade gear chance raised to the Conquest level, its Kina set to 80% of Conquest as bound Kina, and a three-clear bonus addedMay 13, 2026Hard cube Kina raised from 600,000 to 810,000May 20, 2026Remaining Dratona eggs disappear when Durvati diesJuly 1, 2026Half of Conquest Normal Kina paid as bound Kina; on Hard, fixed Durvati using Rising Venom Swamp before Venom Swamp when her health drops very fastAugust 19, 2026Fall-death height in the boss areas raisedAugust 26, 2026All Conquest Kina paid as bound KinaSeptember 9, 2026Draconic materials bound only2021Rewards2122At launch the Conquest cube carried Unstable Stigma Shards, a sealed Philosopher's Stone for opening extra Soul Inscription slots, wing feathers that convert into the nest's own wings, and painting remnants that convert into a painting of the dungeon. Shining Ode, dropped by its bosses from February 11, has a better chance than a regular Ode extraction of giving high-purity Ode.2324RewardDetailKinaBound Kina in Exploration and in both Conquest difficultiesPhilosopher's Stone: RevelationConquest cube since February 11, 2026 and guaranteed reward since March 11, 2026Fragment: Marchutan's TraceConquest cube since March 25, 2026Shining OdeDropped by the bossesDramata Nest wing feathers and painting remnantsConvert into the nest's wings and its painting through Material ConversionDraconic crafting materialsBound only since September 9, 20262526Bosses2627OrderBossKorean nameKey mechanicsFirstBroodkeeper Nayatman부화의 나야트만Spear throws with expanding rings, homing orbs and the Red Blood, Blue Shell tetherSecondManager Nasium관리자 나지움Tracking blades that must be broken on the stone pillars; a poison spear that leaves a damaging zoneFinalDecaying Durvati부패한 두르바티Rain of Poison aimed at eggs, a roar that fears distant players, Venom Swamp escaped on high rocks, hatching eggs at low health2829The English boss names are the game client's English data and are not yet used in an English NCsoft announcement. The order above follows the route; write-ups agree that Nayatman is the first boss and Nasium the second.2930Boss Mechanics3132Broodkeeper Nayatman3334Nayatman opens by throwing a spear that sticks in the ground and sends out rings of damage from the spear outwards; players either stay outside or step into the middle once the inner ring has burst. Below half health it can throw two or three spears at once, and moving well away is safer than threading the overlaps. It also releases slow white orbs that follow players and explode, and electric patches that form towards its target. With the words Red Blood, Blue Shell it tethers two players: standing together hurts, so they first move apart to break the tether, which gives each a red or blue shield, and then come back together before the timer runs out or a lightning strike stuns them. NCsoft reworked this skill on February 11, 2026 so that it no longer overlaps the exploding spear.3536Manager Nasium3738Nasium's poisoned spear leaves a zone of heavy damage where it lands, and his attacks around himself expand outwards in up to four steps. His key mechanic is a set of tracking blades, announced with a line about unstoppable blades grinding the party down: every player is chased by a blade that disappears when it hits one of the stone pillars at the edges of the arena or after enough time passes. He uses it often, so players keep enough movement resource in reserve. Since February 4, 2026 his spinning blades vanish while he is staggered.3940Decaying Durvati4142Durvati is a large beast who tail-swipes, headbutts and breathes, and has a crushing double stomp followed by a tail slam. With Rain of Poison she marks every player, and four poison strikes fall on each; the party aims them at the small eggs (one hit each) and large eggs (three hits each) around the arena. A roar follows that fears anyone not standing close to her. With Venom Swamp a four-second timer appears and the only escape from the poison breath is to climb onto the high rocks. At about 30% health the surviving eggs hatch: hatchlings from small eggs smash the rocks, and those from large eggs attack players, which is why breaking eggs earlier matters.
