FAQ
FAQ
Common questions about this topic.
When is the next AION 2 announcement?
Balance/roster announcements land as NC publishes them; this log is updated from official channels only.
What sources does this site use?
Steam listing, NC global site, official YouTube channel, and clearly-labelled KR/TW regional coverage. Competitors are discovery sources, never truth sources.
Why is some information missing?
Everything unverified is gated: names, numbers and mechanics are published only with a source and verification level (PRD discipline).
