11 The Journal is AION 2's quest log. It lists the missions a character can take and the ones already finished, and it is where every kind of quest in the game is tracked, from the main story to repeatable Duties. It opens from the Journal icon at the bottom right of the screen or with the J key. The global client uses the same name: NCsoft's global maintenance notices refer to the Journal and to its Duty tab.

33 Finishing a mission pays experience, currency or items. The official Korean guidebook sorts the quests into four tabs, and the game data behind them (client data dated September 18, 2026) holds 1,314 quests across both factions.

1516 The Daeva Gauge and Ascension
1617  
1718 Ascension quests are a kind of test: passing one promotes the character, and each promotion opens new content. Progress toward the next one is shown on the Daeva Gauge. The gauge rises as the character completes episode quests, district quests, Strongholds and Sealed Dungeons and other hidden content in the world; clicking it shows exactly which conditions remain. When the gauge reaches 100% the next Ascension quest triggers, and the gauge resets to zero.
1819  
1920 The Ascension chain itself is the Path of Ascension, five quests given by Asahr at the Dream Crossroad at levels 5, 22, 32, 45 and 49. The full table is on Hero Quests.

2122 Auto-Move and Quest Teleports
2223  
2324 Clicking a quest, or pressing Alt plus the quest's number, sends the character toward the quest objective automatically. Players point out a faster route for district quests: the map icon next to the Journal's move button opens the quest's starting point on the world map, where a nearby Kibelisk can be picked for a teleport.
2425  
2526 Teleports have been built into quests as well. The Chapter 1 update of July 1, 2026 added teleports to some quest steps in Poeta, Verteron, Ishalgen and Altgard on the Korean and Taiwanese service, eased the difficulty of the Verteron and Altgard episode and district quests, and started showing teleport conditions on the world map and minimap. On the global service, the October 4 to 5, 2026 maintenance added a button to the Quest Tracker that teleports a character to Verteron or Altgard while it is progressing through the Poeta or Ishalgen Hero Quests, for players who could not otherwise travel there. See Travel and Teleportation.

2728 Global Service Notes
2829  
2930 The global service opened with a Journal fault: a character that checked the Duty tab before reaching level 45 could not use Duties on reaching 45 until the following day. NCsoft listed it as a known issue during Advance Access and scheduled the fix for the October 4 to 5, 2026 maintenance, which also fixed quests that could not continue after the client closed mid-quest.
