The Shugo Festival in AION 2 is a set of 9 mini-games that the client schedules at the top of every hour, every day of the week (24 starts a day). You can join from the quest that opens it (Contents Navigator level 13). After a game you spend a reward key (3 a day, up to 12 stored, 21 with the membership, counted per server) to open reward cards; at level 45 each card holds about 50 Centuryroot Tokens, 700 Enhance Stones and 400 Abyss Points on average. How many cards your place opens is not in the client: players report 4 for 1st in Jump Jump.

When the Shugo Festival starts

Source: EventSchedule (ActiveTimeList, EventList) · FieldEvent (EventGroup, ProgressTime, ReadyDuration).

The client schedules every one of the 9 games, for both factions, on the same 24 starts a day (every 1 h from 00:00, every day of the week; EventSchedule rows 1101–1109 and 2101–2109): 00:00, 01:00, 02:00 … 23:00 server time. Each game has a 180-second ready time and then runs 175–300 seconds, depending on the game.

What the client does not store: which game is open at which hour, or whether the game picks it or you do. The schedule lists all 9 games at every start. Players' comments read as if they choose a game to queue for (“I swapped to a game I enjoyed”), and two complaint threads say the window to get in is about five minutes. r/Aion2, 20 Oct 2026, 573 upvotes, 9 Oct 2026, 320 upvotes.

  • It opens with a story quest. ContentsUnlock lists level 0 and names the quest instead: Visions in Smoke (Elyos) / Urgent Pursuit (Asmodian). The Contents Navigator lists the Festival at level 13.
  • From the menu. Check which events are active and what items are sold at the Festival Shop in [Main Menu] - [Shugo Festival]. Every game is entered Directly (EntranceType): the entrance map is the game's own map, no spawner and no item. When no game is open the game says “Cannot teleport to Shugo Festival because it is not active.”
  • Ready time. 180 seconds in every FieldEvent row before the game itself; Hidden Lugi needs 2 players to start and Shugo's Dilemma 3 (StartMemberCount).
  • Two factions. Elyos and Asmodians play on their own copy of each map (FieldEvent groups Group_Light_… and Group_Dark_…) with the same tables.

The game's rules

  • Dodge the lasers and collect the festival balloons!
  • Earn points for every balloon you collect.
  • Watch out! Touching a laser will cost you points.

At first, Daeva showed little interest in the Jump Jump Festival, until word spread of its effectiveness as a form of physical training. Run, jump, and dodge! In no time at all, this simple yet joyful festival became a popular joint training session for Daeva to undertake together.

Players' tips (not from the client)

  • Do not chase every balloon. Stand where you are the nearest player to the most floor, so you reach whatever spawns there first. The middle of the arena gives about half of it at the start. r/Aion2, 13 Oct 2026, 205 upvotes
  • When another player is clearly closer to a balloon, move for the next spawn instead. Golden balloons come three at a time around a bomb: take all three if rivals are far, or wait for the blast if nobody is near. r/Aion2, 13 Oct 2026, 205 upvotes
  • The writer's winning scores were 1,310 to 1,400 points; a round lasts 2:55, which is the 175 seconds in the table above. r/Aion2, 13 Oct 2026, 205 upvotes
  • Lag decides close races: with a ping of about 50 ms or more, a rival who is near the balloon may be credited first even if you touched it first. r/Aion2, 13 Oct 2026, 5 upvotes

Wraith Evasion

The game's rules

  • Evade the wraiths and collect Odyle Drops.
  • Getting caught by a wraith will transform you into one, preventing you from collecting Odyle Drops.
  • However, you can break free from wraith form by turning another Daeva into a wraith.

A stronghold has been discovered filled with Odyle Drops galore! Unfortunately, it is also overrun with wraiths, making it nearly impossible to approach. After much deliberation, the Shugo began spreading rumors about the stronghold and luring in Daeva with the promise of a share of the spoils. Thanks to the Shugo Festival Manager's cooperation, a grand festival was held where the Shugo and Daeva could share this new Odyle Drop jackpot.

Hidden Lugi

The game's rules

  • Players are transformed into either a Shugo or a Lugi.
  • Lugi earn points by collecting Odyle Drops, but must avoid being discovered by any Shugo!
  • Shugo must find the disguised Lugi to earn a large number of points.

Lugi are cute, resilient, and gentle pets beloved by the Shugo. After some Daeva began expressing curiosity about them, a group of Shugo developed a program to provide firsthand experience, with the stipulation that participants must first transform into Shugo to avoid scaring the timid beasts. The program evolved to the point where participants may also transform into a Lugi itself, and before long, team battles between the Shugo and Lugi skyrocketed in popularity.

  • Co-op plan: one player (the "balloon eater") clears the balloons, everyone else steps on the correct tiles behind them until they have 500 points, which the post counts as five correct steps, and then stops. If the rewards of 1st and 2nd place are the same, nobody has to beat anybody. r/Aion2, 21 Oct 2026, 1 upvote
  • If someone refuses and keeps eating balloons, the eater matches that player's score so the result is 1st, 2nd, 2nd, 2nd and so on. The post says this only works when about four players cooperate. r/Aion2, 21 Oct 2026, 1 upvote
  • Treat it as a plan, not a rule: the post has one upvote, and a commenter on the 47,000 thread tried the game ten times and never met a lobby that cooperated. The Raid Relay guide says Global had not picked the idea up yet. r/Aion2, 13 Oct 2026, 1 upvote

Shugo's Dilemma

300 s run180 s readyruns to the time limitfrom 3 players

The game's rules

  • Gather on the platform with the exact number of players shown.
  • Platforms with higher numbers award more points.
  • Players who fail to match the required number on a platform lose points.
  • Collect Odyle Drops to earn bonus points.

A Shugo psychologist has designed an experiment to study how quickly trust breaks down when greed enters the picture, using Daeva as test subjects. Will you choose to cooperate, share rewards, and rely on one another? Or will you betray others to secure a larger score for yourself? Do you dare take part in this cruel experiment?

What the Shugo Festival pays

Source: FieldEvent.RewardMonsterCube → RewardDataMonsterCube → RewardItem / RewardPackage / RewardPackageItem; ContentsTicket.

How it's counted

At character level 45–49 (the client's level cap is 45).

Check which events are active and what items are sold at the Festival Shop in [Main Menu] - [Shugo Festival]. After you play a game, you can claim rewards based on your rank. Rewards include the basic participation reward, [Centuryroot Token], and other materials and gear according to set probabilities. Collect and use Centuryroot Tokens to buy items from the [Festival Shop]. All 18 reward cubes (nine games, two factions) point at tables that pay the same in every game; only the faction's gear differs. So the client holds no reward by game and none by place. What a place changes is decided outside these tables.

Each reward card

The cube's “Common” table. Our reading: this is what every card holds. It matches a Raid Relay post (50 tokens, 700 Enhance Stones and 320–480 Abyss Points per card at level 45). Always given:

Also, at a chance each: Resurrection Spiritstone (Bound) 1 (10%).

The extra table (spends a reward key)

The cube's “Key” table. Our reading: one of the five cards also holds this; the post reports an extra 800 Abyss Points on one card. Always given:

Also, at a chance each: Seed of Detection 1 (30%).

A chance above 100% is shown as above 100%; the client does not say whether it rolls more than once. Weights are out of 100,000,000. The cube row also stores MaxSelectPerSlot 9, TotalLimitSelect 99, LimitSelectPerSlot 99,999, MaxPlayerPerSlot 99,999, TicketUseMax 1, which the client does not explain.

Reward keys

3 keys a day at 16:00 on the server clock, stored up to 12 (21 with the membership, which adds only to the cap). The ticket is counted per server (server owner), so your characters share it. The game: “Reward keys will be deducted upon obtaining a reward. Reward keys will be automatically recharged at every recharge cycle. ※ Applied per server” A second row, Shugo Festival Reward Key, is per character (4 a day, up to 28); no reward cube names it.

Centuryroot Tokens

Made by drying high-quality Centuryroot, this token is popular among Shugo as a collectable item. Can be used to purchase various items in the Shugo Festival Shop. Centuryroot Token • Festival Shop

First three plays of each game

Each of the 9 games has a three-step achievement (1, 2 and 3 plays): 20 + 40 + 85 tokens and 2,000 + 4,000 + 8,000 Kina, and a title on the third. All nine: 1,305 tokens and 126,000 Kina (our sum of the achievement rewards). All achievements

Cards by place and what a key is worth

The number of cards a place opens is not in the client. Players report that after a game you get 5 face-down cards and your place decides how many you may open (Jump Jump: 1st 4, 2nd and 3rd 3, 4th 2). Raid Relay, r/Aion2, 13 Oct 2026, 205 upvotes. Other games are reported differently: one commenter says Odyle Flight Frenzy gives 4 for a win but Defend Shugo Merchants 3, and another says first place there gets 4 and last 2.

42,240232.163,76047,040
52,800290.24,70058,800

Our calculation: per key = cards × (average of one card) + cards ÷ 5 × (average of the extra table). Averages at level 45: 400 Abyss Points, 50 tokens and 700 Enhance Stones per card; 800 Abyss Points, 40.2 tokens (the table's token package, Σ weight × tokens) and 1,200 Enhance Stones in the extra table. Assumptions, both from the players' report and not the client: 5 cards, the extra table on exactly one of them, every pick equally likely to be it. With 4 cards that is 4 × 400 + 4/5 × 800 = 2,240 Abyss Points a key, 47,040 over a week of 21 first places; the post says about 2,240 and about 47,000. Gear, Odyle and refining-stone rolls are not counted. A weekly limit on Abyss Points exists in the client (CurrencyLimitSchedule, reset Wednesday) but its amount is not, so a real week can be lower. The Raid Relay Abyss Points guide, which adds Daily Duties and Commands, reports 104,000–127,500 a week (r/Aion2, 16 Oct 2026, 208 upvotes).

The whole shop: Festival Shop.

What the client does not hold

  • Which game runs at which hour, and whether you choose it.
  • Rewards by place or by game: the 18 cubes pay the same tables. The card counts above are players' reports.
  • Scoring: points per balloon, per tile or per laser hit. The rules only say which actions earn or cost points.
  • The weekly Abyss Point limit's amount, and which card holds the extra table.
  • The rules of Shugo's Dilemma beyond the text: its table file is in the export but not decoded.

Shugo Festival FAQ

When is the Shugo Festival in AION 2?

Every hour on the hour, every day: the client lists 24 starts a day (00:00, 01:00 … 23:00 server time, every 1 h from 00:00) for each of the 9 games. Each game has a 180-second ready time and then runs 175–300 seconds (EventSchedule and FieldEvent). The client does not say which game is open at which hour or whether you pick one; players write as if they choose, and report only about five minutes to get in.

How do Shugo Festival rewards work?

Check which events are active and what items are sold at the Festival Shop in [Main Menu] - [Shugo Festival]. After you play a game, you can claim rewards based on your rank. Rewards include the basic participation reward, [Centuryroot Token], and other materials and gear according to set probabilities. Collect and use Centuryroot Tokens to buy items from the [Festival Shop]. In the tables, every game points at the same reward tables for its level band: a "Common" table (our reading: what each card holds) and a "Key" table (our reading: the extra one card holds, which is the one that spends the reward key). A key is 3 a day, stored up to 12 (21 with the membership), and it is shared by your characters on a server. How many cards a place opens is not in the client.

How many Abyss Points does the Shugo Festival give?

At level 45 the tables give an average of 400 Abyss Points per card (five equal amounts from 320 to 480) and 800 more in the extra table. With the players' 4 cards for 1st place and a 4-in-5 chance of the extra table, one key is worth about 2,240 (our calculation: 4 × 400 + 4/5 × 800), so 21 first places a week come to about 47,040. The weekly Abyss Point limit exists in the client (CurrencyLimitSchedule) but its amount is not.

How to get first place in Not This Tile?

The game's rules say your rank is your total score over 8 rounds, with correct tiles earning points and mistakes costing points. The client holds no scoring numbers. Players describe a co-op plan: one player eats the balloons and the others step on correct tiles until they reach 500 points, because the post says 1st and 2nd place get identical rewards. It is one post with one upvote, so treat it as unconfirmed.

From the game files: client 2026.10.21 (Steam build 26077854, 2026-10-21). The same numbers as JSON: /raw/shugo-festival.json. Related: timers, field events, Dimensional Invasion, daily checklist.
