AION 2 Pet Sharing: Server-Wide Genus Insight, Alts and What Is Confirmed

AION 2 pet sharing is the question of whether pet progress and Genus Insight count across all of your characters on one server, or stay with each character. Two kinds of source speak to it. Korean announcements from NC describe server-wide sharing, and several global-version videos report the same behavior. This guide separates what is official, what is reported and what is still unconfirmed about AION 2 pet sharing, so you can plan alts without assuming too much.

NC opened the global version on October 5, 2026, and the official global launch notice is at NC's launch announcement. That notice covers the launch date and platforms, and it does not describe pet sharing, so the sharing rules below rest on Korean announcements and video reports.

AION 2 Pet Sharing: What the Korean Announcements Say

In Korea, NC announced a change on January 7, 2026. Genus Insight and pet ownership moved from a per-character basis to server-wide sharing. Genus Insight takes the highest value reached among characters on the same server, and pet levels are added together across all characters. Those are official Korean facts, but they apply to the Korean client.

A second Korean announcement, dated June 17, 2026, said that special-grade costumes and pets would become sharable across the whole server. The same announcement said auto-loot would be made available for all pets. The global status of both changes is unconfirmed.

What Global Guides Report

Four global-version videos report that pet leveling and Genus Insight are shared by all characters on one server. Those reports are the main reason players assume the same rule applies to the global client. None of them quotes an official global text, so they are community reports and not a settled rule.

Guides differ on one wording. One video says the progress is tied to the account, while the others say the server. The difference matters if you plan to farm on one server and move progress to another. Until the wording is settled, plan around the server, since that is what most guides describe.

Planning Alts Without Assuming the Rule

Farming pets on an alt character can benefit the whole server, according to two global videos. Running the pet daily dungeon on alts adds souls, according to two more. Those reports make alts attractive, but they do not remove the need for a test on your own server.

Each alt also has its own Black Cloud Merchant stock, according to one global guide. That part is separate from Genus Insight sharing, so check the merchant tab on each alt rather than assuming it refreshes from your main character. The AION 2 black cloud merchant guide covers how the merchant tab works and what it sells.

The reports point to three alt-related effects, which the table summarizes before the practical steps below.

Practical steps that follow from the reports:

1. Note the pet levels and Genus Insight values on your main character before you start farming on an alt.
2. Check the same values on the alt after the next update, and compare them with your notes.
3. Keep the boards you plan to roll on the character that will benefit, until the sharing rule is confirmed for your server.

The AION 2 genus insight hub explains how Genus Insight fits with Pet Insight and Owned Effects, so the sharing question makes more sense once you know which layer each number belongs to.
