How much PvP data exists

Cleric kit numbers for PvP

Cleric is the only pure healer on the roster, and 13 of its skills reach 20 m. The sourced kit notes name Healing Light as the everyday heal and Radiant Recovery as the burst heal. Community guides put its personal damage among the lowest of the eight, and MetaBot's Abyss analysis rates it as valuable in sieges. Client-data Source

Aion 2 Cleric PvP stigma swaps

No source we trust names a PvP stigma swap for this class, so the table is replaced by the open slot below.

No source names a Cleric PvP swap. The slot that varies most is the fourth: MetaBot picks Summon Resurrection, Playhub picks Prayer of Amplification and the Neonsect runs show both near half. Our sample lists both too. No source ties either to PvP, so we do not either. Editorial

What top players run

Stigma rates for top Clerics, who play both PvE and PvP, so this is a starting point and not a PvP set. Source: official AION 2 character pages, sampled 2026-10-26, n=200.

All three sets contain Earth Punishment and Light of Protection. The sets differ on Prayer of Amplification, Noble Aura, Benevolence and Summon Resurrection.

Most worn weapon: Spiritforged Mace, 39.5% of the sample, median enchant +10.

Where top players put skill levels

The actives top Clerics level highest, among skills at least 90% of them equip. The armory has no rotation order, so this shows investment and not a chain. Source: official AION 2 character pages, sampled 2026-10-26, n=200.

Cleric matchups from the kit counts

Editorial reading. Each row rests on the kit counts named in it and on MetaBot's opinion tiers. No source publishes class versus class results. Editorial

Cleric matchup readings
Against Reading Counts behind it
ChanterBuffs that overlapLight of Protection is Cleric's first stigma in MetaBot's table. Next to a Chanter at equal level the Mantra applies instead, so Cleric's stigma choice depends on whether a Chanter is in the group.
AssassinLow damage against a duel classGuides put Cleric's personal damage among the lowest of the eight and MetaBot ranks Assassin top for duels. Cleric's counterweight is reach: 13 skills at 20 m against Assassin's 5. No test shows whether distance or damage decides it.
TemplarSiege partnerTemplar is the only pure tank and Cleric the only pure healer, and MetaBot rates both for sieges. Our class notes call the tank the usual partner in a long fight.

What changes for PvP

  • Level 16 Defiance and Abyss rank. Defiance removes Stun, Knockdown, Airborne, Grab, Frost and Fear and gives 5 seconds of immunity on a 60 second cooldown. Abyss rank buffs run from 1.2% to 5.0% PvP Damage Boost and Tolerance. Both are in the PvP guide. Client-data Source
  • Daevanion skill nodes. The four earlier boards add +1 level to 12 named skills (Legend nodes) and to Empyrean Lords' Benediction, Empyrean Lords' Grace, Warm Benediction, Healing Enhancement, Immortal Veil, Heal Block, Radiant Benediction, Survival Willpower, Earth's Grace and Prayer of Concentration (Rare nodes). See the Cleric Daevanion route. Official Source
  • Azphel. The level 45 board holds PvP Damage Boost and PvP Damage Tolerance corner stats and no skill nodes. Client-data Source
  • Gear. We have no sourced PvP stat order or PvP-only gear list for Cleric.

Cleric PvP mistakes

  • Healing at full speed while nobody is hurt. The kit has damage skills for that moment.
  • Running Light of Protection beside a Chanter and expecting both to count. It does not stack with Undefeated Mantra.

Aion 2 Cleric PvP build FAQ

Does Light of Protection stack with a Chanter's buff?

No. It does not stack with Undefeated Mantra. The higher level applies and the Mantra wins ties.

Why do guides rate Cleric for sieges?

MetaBot's Abyss kit analysis rates Cleric, Chanter and Templar as valuable in sieges, and Cleric is the only pure healer. It is analysis, not win rates.
