AION 2 Special Pets: No Stats, Turquoise Crystals and Sources

AION 2 special pets are the turquoise family, and they follow different rules from the four common families. Several videos say they give no stats, that kills cannot farm or level them, and that they come from events, shops, battle passes and founder packs. The aion2pets.app record lists six Special companions. This page explains what is documented, what is reported and what the sources leave open, so you can plan Special pets without assuming a fixed route, a transform or a stat bonus. Each claim carries its source.

AION 2 Special Pets at a Glance

The table gives the core facts for the AION 2 special pets family. Most of the lines come from several videos, and the library count comes from the aion2pets.app record, so the table keeps those sources separate.

The official NC contents page describes pets as companions that can be ridden as mounts, but it does not list Special sources or stats. The Steam store page says Shugo Festival mini-game rewards can include pets. For the wording, see the Steam store page.

Special Pets Give No Stats

Multiple videos state that Special pets give no stats, including the pets bought in the shop, and that they are not pay-to-win. That is the main difference from the other four families, and it changes how you should plan your collection.

The Special Genus Insight board still matters, though. It needs rainbow crystals, and the turquoise crystals it uses come only from duties, according to several videos. One video reports that fully unlocking the Special board takes about 1,500 turquoise crystals, 12,000 rainbow crystals and 2.5 million kina. That is a single report, so treat the figures as a rough sense of scale rather than a planning budget.

Where Special Pets Come From

Guides agree that AION 2 special pets come from events, battle passes, the cash shop, founder packs and pre-registration. Kills do not give them.

Founder packs are a route some guides name for the Black Dragon, but the record lists its acquisition category as chests only, and no monster source is recorded. Reported routes differ, so this page does not describe how to get the Black Dragon. The same applies to Pagati, which one pre-launch guide ties to pre-registration. Check the official pages and your own account history rather than relying on one route.

The Steam store page says Shugo Festival mini-game rewards can include pets, and several guides mention the Shugo Festival shop as a source. In Korea, NC announced that Special-grade costumes and pets become sharable across the server. That is a Korean announcement, and the global status has not been confirmed in the sources used here.

Special Pets and the Other Families

The table shows why Special pets need a different plan. Common families build stats through farming and leveling, while Special pets come through events and purchases. If your goal is the stat gains the common families document, start there. If you want the Special board, plan around the turquoise and rainbow crystal sources rather than the pets' own stats.

Special Board Notes

Slot 4 on the Special board is reported as the double chance option, according to several guides. Turquoise comes only from duties, according to several videos, and rainbow crystals are needed for the rest of the board. Duty rewards decrease from left to right in the percentages that two guides list, so the first duty option returns the most.

The Special board details are summarized in the table below.

Like every other board, the Special board uses a roll cost in crystals and kina, and each locked stat raises the cost of the next roll. Guides advise waiting until level 9 or 10 before locking stats on any board, and rainbow crystals work on any board as a wildcard.
