Verteron is the Elyos home territory, the region on the Elysea side of the Bulwark where Elyos characters begin. It is the Elyos counterpart to Altgard, and it is the region a character has to finish before the world opens further: completing Verteron's hero quest line spawns a spatial transfer portal that leads to the newer territory of Eltnen.
The portal is not just a quest reward. It checks level, item level and combat power before it lets you through, so Verteron is a gate as well as a starting zone.
Location | What it is | |
|---|---|---|
Dawn Legion Base | A hidden stronghold deep inside Cantas Valley that serves as the Dawn Legion's command centre. | |
Cantas Valley | Once a vital Odylium supply hub for the Daeva. The land was abandoned when its resources ran out, and the Dawn Legion now gathers what little remains. | |
Ellun River Marsh | High ground along the lower Ellun River, once the site of Verteron's Barrier Tower until the [[Ishtar Legion | balaur]] destroyed it from the air. The Illusion Cavaliers hold it now and are trying to rebuild the tower. |
Altamia Canyon | A canyon in eastern Verteron, once home to the Zumion Temple. It was submerged after the Battle of Meslamtaeda and has since re-emerged, and the Notos Legion watches it. | |
Aullaeu Village | An Aullaeu settlement on the edge of Tolbas Forest, home to servants of the Balaur and tied to whatever is wrong with the forest. |
Tolbas Forest itself borders the region and holds the sanctuary of Urugugu Canyon, one of the Expedition dungeons.
Verteron carries the standard field layer that the newer regions also use: Sealed Dungeons, Strongholds and Monoliths, plus field bosses and the map's travel network. The Korean and Taiwanese build added a Daeva Express system that completes a region's Sealed Dungeon, Stronghold and Empyrean Trace objectives in one pass, and it covers Verteron.
Verteron is not a peaceful zone once you reach the cap. On the Korean and Taiwanese build it is one of the two territories that host Spacetime Rift: Scramble, a large-scale attack-and-defence mode in which each faction takes turns defending.
Element | Detail on the Korean and Taiwanese build |
|---|---|
Schedule | Monday, Thursday and Saturday, at 20:00 and 23:00 |
Rotation | Attack and defence swap weekly. In week one Verteron is defended by the Elyos; in week two Altgard is defended by the Asmodian. |
Entry | Level 50, item level 4,500 and combat power 500k, plus completion of the region's stronghold-clearing achievement |
Size | Between 60 and 200 players per side |
Objective | Five strongholds form a group, one group opens at random, and each stronghold falls when all three of its Monoliths are destroyed. Capturing three of five wins it for the attackers. |
That mode is live on the Korean and Taiwanese build and has not been announced for the global build. See PvP and the Abyss.
Verteron is also the name of a region in the original AION. The locations listed above are AION 2's own, taken from AION 2 material, and the two games' maps are not a one-to-one carry-over. Do not assume a place from the first game exists here.
World and Regions for the world structure. Eltnen for the territory Verteron leads into. Altgard for the Asmodian counterpart. Story and Lore for why the region is walled off.
