AION 2 Odyle Energy: refill, cap and where to spend it

Odyle Energy pays for loot, not entry

On Global, entering an Expedition, a Transcendence or Ludra costs no Odyle Energy: your item level opens the door. When you win, a reward cube appears. You infuse Odyle Energy into it to claim the loot, and the claim pays for the final boss plus every mid-boss you killed. No energy, and the clear was for nothing.

Never leave a dungeon without claiming. According to client data, each abandoned cube uses one of the week's 10 unclaimed cubes, shared by your whole server; at zero, you can't enter Conquest or Transcendence until the weekly reset.

Refill and cap: never overflow

Everyone refills at the same rate, member or not: 15 every 3 hours, which is 120 a day and 840 a week. The cap depends on membership: 560 without, 840 with. NC confirms membership raises the cap but never published the numbers; 560 and 840 come from the Global client (to be confirmed if NC publishes them).

• Without membership, an empty bar fills in 4 days and 16 hours (560 ÷ 15 × 3 h = 112 h). Log in and spend at least every 4 days.
• With membership, reaching 840 takes exactly 7 days: a full week of refill fits in the bar.
• Every hour spent at the cap costs you 5 energy, which is one 40-point cube every 8 hours.

Rule of thumb before time away (without membership): keep your bar below 560 minus 120 per day away, so below 320 for two days and below 200 for three. The weekly routine lists Odyle Energy among the tasks not to forget.

How many cubes per day and per week

So membership doesn't give you more energy: it gives you two loots per clear, meaning half as many runs for the same loot, plus a bigger bar. On rare or long content like Ludra, that's where the double infusion pays most. According to creators, a cube infused twice also counts twice toward guaranteed rewards (to be confirmed).

Where to infuse first by item level

Top players' rule: spend Odyle Energy on the newest content you can clear, and save whatever wouldn't overflow for the next tier. A tier 1 piece claimed the day before you unlock tier 2 is a wasted infusion. As of 13 Nov 2026, on Global:

1. 1

   Under 2,600: your highest Conquest

   Tier 1 at 700 (Krao, Draupnir), tier 2 at 1,400 (Urugugu, Vakron), tier 3 at 2,100 (Fire Temple, Ferocious Horn Den). Transcendence stages open at 1,600, 1,900, 2,200 and 2,500 and also cost 40. Claim almost nothing while levelling: those infusions are lost for level 45.

2. 2

   2,600 to 2,799: Hard mode

   Tier 1 at 2,600 (Krao, Draupnir) since 21 Oct, tier 2 at 2,700 (Urugugu, Vakron) since 28 Oct. That's where Ariel Fragments and Philosopher's Stone: Revelation drop. Details in our Hard mode guide.

3. 3

   2,800 to 2,999: Ludra first, then tier 3

   Since 11 Nov, Hard tier 3 (Fire Temple, Ferocious Horn Den) requires 2,800, like Ludra Normal. Claim your weekly Ludra clear first (2 h per attempt since 11 Nov), then spend the rest on tier 3. See our Ludra guide.

4. 4

   3,000 and up: Ludra Hard

   Ludra Hard opens at 3,000. The rest of your week goes to Hard tier 3, which drops every Unique crafting material since 11 Nov.

NC hasn't republished Ludra's weekly limits since 4 Nov: in Early Access it was 4 attempts and one rewarded clear a week. Check your counter at the entrance before planning your energy. Each dungeon's gates are on the dungeons page.

Getting more Odyle Energy

There are two items: Odyle Energy (Bound), which restores 40, and Small Odyle Energy (Bound), which restores 10. Here's where to get them on Global as of 13 Nov 2026:

• Wind Breeze math: 4 items of 40 is 160 energy, so 4 extra cubes a week per character, for 400,000 Kinah. Worth it as soon as you farm content whose loot is worth more than 100,000 Kinah per cube. One tracker reports that both offers stack on a single character (up to 20 a week): to be confirmed in game.
• The Ludra event's Odyle Energy bonus (4 a day per account, by mail) ended with the 11 Nov maintenance (10 Nov PST). Each mail expires 7 days after it arrives: claim the last ones before 17 Nov.
• The TAKEFLIGHTAION2 code (4 Odyle Energy) expired on 14 Oct.
• An alt has its own bar: more cubes each week, but purchased energy stays bound to that character. For the Kinah side, see how to make Kinah.

According to client data, energy from items has its own reserve, capped at 2,000 (two guides agree); one of them adds that it stacks on top of the bar, so an item opened at full bar isn't wasted. NC hasn't published this: test it in game with a single item. Keep them for a busy week, such as a new tier opening. To catch the next bonuses, see current events.

Membership: 840 and two infusions per cube

The Special Quai Membership ($14.99 for 30 days, one server) changes three things for Odyle Energy, per NC's notice updated on 2 Oct: two infusions per cube in Expeditions, Transcendence and Sanctuaries, a higher cap (840 in the client) and access to the Wind Breeze Merchants. The refill rate doesn't change. The other perks are on the membership sheet.

• For a daily player, the gain is mostly the two loots per clear and the 4 weekly Wind Breeze items.
• For a player who logs in once a week, the 840 cap saves 280 energy (2 days and 8 hours of refill).
• It covers every character on the server where you buy it, and only them.

Korea: new costs since 11 Nov

Korea (level 55 since 11 Nov) reworked Odyle Energy costs with Season 5 of Chapter 1. These numbers do not apply to Global.

• Expedition bosses no longer drop Od: that loot moved into the Odyle Energy cube, where the Unique gear drop rate was lowered.
• Odyle Energy handed out by NC in Korea expires: the surprise stream rewards (4 a day from 11 to 17 Nov) vanish on 23 Dec. According to guides, Korean energy also expires at the end of a chapter; on Global, nothing is announced for the end of Season 1 (16 Dec), but don't hoard more than you need.
• Korea's refill without membership is reportedly 10 every 3 hours (guide data, to be confirmed): at 60 per Expedition, that's barely more than one cube a day.
• Korea's 1st anniversary code THANKYOUDAEVA: 12 Odyle Energy, once per account, until 3 Mar 2027; it only works on Korean accounts.

Mistakes that waste Odyle Energy

• Sitting at the cap over a weekend: up to 240 energy lost, six cubes.
• Claiming levelling Explorations: save the energy for level 45.
• Leaving without claiming: you eat into your server's 10 unclaimed cubes.
• Buying membership to refill faster: the refill rate is the same.
• Spending on a tier you'll leave in two days instead of waiting for the next gate.
