AION 2 Combat Roles: Tank, Healer, Support and DPS

How the eight Global classes map to familiar group responsibilities.

GLOBAL PCVerified October 3, 2026Keyword: does aion 2 have tank and healer

Quick answer: AION 2 supports recognizable tank, healer, support and damage responsibilities. Individual classes can overlap, but a role-first view is the safest way to form a group.

Version note: Broad Global role guide; exact encounter compositions remain activity- and patch-dependent.

Tank

Templar has the clearest defense-first identity. A tank manages enemy attention, positioning and survival rather than focusing only on damage.

Healing and support

Cleric is the healing-first class. Chanter offers a hybrid support identity and should not automatically be treated as identical to a dedicated healer in every activity.

Damage roles

Gladiator and Assassin offer different melee styles; Ranger handles ranged physical damage; Sorcerer and Spiritmaster cover different magical identities.
