AION 2 Hidden Cube Farming Guide: Regions, Keys and Rewards
A region-level Hidden Cube search guide for AION 2, with areas to check, key sources and possible rewards.
Updated: 2026-10-11 · Published: 2026-10-11
Hidden Cubes are reward chests scattered across AION 2's open world. Explore side paths and vertical spaces, watch for their glow, and listen for a shimmering sound. This guide covers regions and search tactics; it does not claim to be a point-by-point map.
Regions to Search
Start with the regions available to your faction. The areas below are broad search zones, not exact cube coordinates:
| Region | Faction | Areas to check |
|---|---|---|
| Verteron | Elyos | Altamia Canyon, Ellun River Midstream, Fortress Ruins, Aullaeu Village |
| Eltnen | Elyos | Eiron Hill, Barrier Tower Ruins, Ruberein Highland |
| Altgard | Asmodian | Dredgion Crash Site, Purifying Forest, Battlescar Mound |
| Morheim | Asmodian | Nephra Snowfield, Iralcig Highland, Muspel Volcano Zone |
Where to look
Cubes favor cliffs, ledges, rooftops, ruins, spots behind waterfalls — and underwater. Turn your volume up; the audible hum is the best detector.
Cube Keys: Where to Get Them
Some cubes can be opened without a key, while a Cube Key can improve the reward. Check the current in-game descriptions before spending currency. Possible key sources include:
- Quests: "Odyle Collection / Contaminated Area" (~level 11) and "Nine Wonders: 2nd Leg" (~level 32) give one key each.
- Achievements: the "Who Brought the Chest?" chain awards 7 keys across its tiers.
- Season Shop: check the current Oath Coin price and account limit in-game.
- Monolith progression (feather turn-ins), Daeva Pass, attendance rewards and level-45 Duty quests.
- Cash shop: an optional purchase route may be available, depending on the current regional shop.
Rewards
Cube loot can include Soul Crystals, Soul Codices, Silentium, Power Shards, Odyle Energy, consumables and cosmetics. Reward quantities and drop chances can vary by cube and game version; this page does not provide unverified rates.
Farming Route Tips
- Bring keys only after checking the current cube and shop descriptions.
- Search the named areas in the table above instead of roaming blindly.
- Check ledges, ruins, rooftops, caves and water edges before leaving an area.
- Enemy-faction regions are reachable during Spacetime Rifts — combine both into one trip.
