AION 2 Pet Mounts: How Pets Work as Rideable Mounts in the Global Game

AION 2 pet mounts are the rideable side of the pet system. The official NC contents page says collected companions transform into rideable mounts, so every pet doubles as a mount. This hub explains what that means in practice, which official text backs it, what video guides add about riding, and where the two mount pages on this site fit. Every line names its source, and where sources disagree the page says so. If you want the quick version, the summary is that riding is a feature of owning pets, not a separate collection.

AION 2 Pet Mounts in Official Text

The official wording is short, so the table quotes the parts that matter for planning and names where each one appears.

The official text does not describe a timed transformation form, glide rules, a mount list or a stat table for mounts. Those details come from video guides and from the aion2pets.app record, and the sections below mark each one. The global site's About page has no readable pet text, so the NC contents page is the official page to check for pet wording.

How Pet Mounts Work in Video Guides

Video guides describe the riding basics in similar ways, but they differ on a few levels. The points below are the ones the sources agree on, along with the disagreements that remain.

The sources also agree that every pet is a mount. One video states that mounts and pets are the same thing. The Genus Insight board, the owned effects and the stat bonuses belong to the pet, not to the skin you ride, so choosing a mount for looks does not change what it gives you.

Mount Stats and Sources

The table sorts riding options by what the sources say about their stats. Use it to decide whether a mount is a look you enjoy or a choice that changes your build.

The table shows the main split. Common family pets give stats through their Owned Effects, while cash shop mounts give none. Special pets give no stats either, according to several videos, so they are a collection choice rather than a stat choice. The AION 2 all mounts page explains the categories in more detail, and it avoids printing a total, because the sources do not agree on one.

Mount Pages on This Site

Two pages in this section go deeper than this hub.

AION 2 All Mounts

The AION 2 all mounts page covers each mount category: common pets, cash shop mounts, founder-pack mounts and special mounts. It explains the sources and the count problem, and it shows which categories give stats.

AION 2 Launch Gift Mounts

The AION 2 launch gift mounts page covers the official two-mount launch gift. It sets out the account and claim deadlines from the NC page and from the Steam page, explains the one-hour difference between them, and gives the claim steps. The official text does not name the mounts, so that page does not name them either.

Planning Your Mounts

Start with the reason you want to ride. If you ride for speed, mount ground move speed is one of the Fera bonuses at level 3, and the Fera family is the place to look. If you ride for stats, the common families give Owned Effects while you own and level them, and that effect does not depend on riding. Riding is a convenience on top of ownership.

Guides also disagree on how much an equipped pet counts. One video says only the equipped pet gives its effects, while the same video says a carried or mounted pet also counts. Treat that point as unresolved, and check the summary tab in your client to see what your character actually gets.

Keep the launch gift deadlines in view. The official two-mount gift has a claim window, and the NC page and the Steam page give different hours. Plan to claim early, and use the earlier time as your deadline.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What are AION 2 pet mounts?

AION 2 pet mounts are pets that can be ridden. The official contents page says collected companions transform into rideable mounts, and video guides say pressing C equips and mounts the pet.

Q: Do AION 2 pet mounts give stats when ridden?

Stats come from owning and leveling pets, not from the mount's appearance. Common family pets give Owned Effects through ownership, and cash shop mounts give zero stats.

Q: How many AION 2 pet mounts are there?

The official text gives no total. The aion2pets.app record counts more than 200 companions, other sources report different totals, and one video's larger estimate conflicts with those counts, so this site does not print a total.

Q: Can I get the launch gift mounts?

Yes, if you create an account by the official deadline and claim before the claim window closes. The official text does not name the two mounts, so check the NC page for the current details.
