AION 2 Elyos Pets: Verteron and Contaminated Sanctuary Farming Guide
✓ Last verified 2026-10-22 · How we check facts
Quick answer
Elyos players are reported to farm pets in Verteron, according to global video guides. Cogni companions are placed in Eastern Tolbas Forest, and Fera, Natura and Varian companions in the Contaminated Sanctuary.
The AION 2 elyos pets question comes down to where Elyos players can farm. Video guides of the global version report that Elyos players farm in Verteron, with Cogni companions in Eastern Tolbas Forest and Fera, Natura and Varian companions in the Contaminated Sanctuary. This AION 2 elyos pets page lists those areas, the named targets in Verteron and the farming habits that apply to both factions. It also flags which names need a check in your own client, because the caption spellings are not confirmed.

Where Elyos Players Farm AION 2 Elyos Pets
Verteron is the main Elyos farm map in the videos, and it is the only area with more than one source in the aion2pets.app record for this family. The Eastern Tolbas Forest and the Contaminated Sanctuary come from single guides, so treat them as strong leads rather than settled facts.
| Area | Reported companions | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Verteron | Elyos main farm map, with named targets | Two or more global videos |
| Eastern Tolbas Forest | Cogni companions | One global guide |
| Contaminated Sanctuary | Fera, Natura and Varian companions | One global guide |
Video guides name these targets in Verteron: Calgolem, a contaminated slime, Agrint, Skyrry, Sparky, Crestlich and Claw. The spellings come from automatic captions, and the captions mishear proper nouns, so match each name against the Sources tab in your client before you travel.
Named Verteron Targets and Their Records
The aion2pets.app record places two companions from this family in Verteron. Patrolling Fossa is a Fera record with three mapped points there, and Red Cap Fungie is a Natura record with one mapped point. Those two records are the strongest support on this page, and the other names come from video guides only, so treat them as leads.
| Record | Family | Mapped area |
|---|---|---|
| Patrolling Fossa | Fera | Verteron, 3 mapped points |
| Red Cap Fungie | Natura | Verteron, 1 mapped point |
Read the two record pages before you commit time to Verteron. The AION 2 Fossa Pet guide covers the Fera record in full, and the AION 2 Fungie Pet guide covers the Natura record. Both pages note that a spawn marker does not establish a drop rate.
Shared Farming Habits for Elyos and Asmodian Players
Several habits apply in every farm area, whichever faction you play. These are video reports, not record entries, so confirm each one in your own game.
- Contested spots: use another listed location, according to two global videos.
- Stand still at the spawn, as one farm guide advises for contested spawns.
- Farm at a combat power that kills monsters quickly, according to one global video.
- Pick up souls with F, since each soul drops on the ground and needs pickup.
- Another faction's monsters can be reached through the space-time rift in PvE mode, according to one global video.
- One video estimates that about half of the pets live in the other faction's territory, and some live in the Abyss.
Some pets are faction-exclusive, according to one video, so check the Sources tab for each pet before you assume you can reach it from your side.
Keeping the Three Systems Apart for Elyos Planning
Elyos players often mix up pet level, Owned Effects and Genus Insight, so the table below separates them. Pet Insight is one pet's own level from 1 to 3, and it follows the 5, 25 and 75 soul steps. Owned Effects are permanent values from owned pets. Genus Insight is the five boards that take pet EXP and crystals.
| System | Covers | Elyos planning note |
|---|---|---|
| Pet Insight | Level 1 to 3 of one pet | Budget 105 souls for a full pet |
| Owned Effects | Permanent stats from owned pets | Collect the family you need, since they count without riding |
| Genus Insight | Five boards fed by pet EXP and crystals | Wait for level 9 or 10 before locking a stat |
Do not count Genus progress as pet level, and do not count an Owned Effect as a board roll. The two are separate on every route, and the table keeps them apart so your budget stays honest.
