Best pets FAQ
What are the best AION 2 pets to farm first?
Start with an easy open-world farm in the Genus you want: Papis / Fossa / Kailin (Fera), Konutin Worker / Fungie / Rafflesia (Natura), or Klaw (Cogni). Same Genus = same Owned Effect ladder.
Does pet name change Owned Effects?
No. Pet Insight Owned Effects are shared by Genus (Cogni, Fera, Natura, Varian). Pick the easiest soul farm in that Genus, then raise Insight.
How many souls do early pets need?
Official Pet Guide: 5 souls unlock, then +25 to the next stage. Insight Lv.3 total is unpublished — do not treat 105 as official.
