What are the pet collection milestone rewards in Aion 2?
Aion 2 pet collection milestones pay 100 bound Soul Crystals at 5, 10, 20, 30 pets and 13 more steps up to 190, about 1,700 crystals in total. The 50, 100, 150 and 200 pet milestones give 10 Empathy Candy each instead, which you need for pet transform.
- 17 crystal milestones × 100 = 1,700
- 4 candy milestones × 10 = 40 Empathy Candy
- Counts species unlocked (5 souls each)

Source note
Two guides agree on 100 crystals per milestone and about 1,700 in total; the exact step list comes from one guide (AllThingsHow, October 17, 2026). The in-game Pet Collection tab is the final word.
How to climb the collection fast
- Unlock pets at about level 11 with the quest “All Geared Up”.
- Open the pet map and pick a zone; each family page lists its species and a route.
- Kill each species until it drops 5 Pet Souls, which unlocks it and counts towards the next milestone.
- Move on to the next species instead of leveling the first one. Leveling comes later.
- Cross into enemy territory during a Spacetime Rift for species that only spawn there.
- Claim each milestone in the Pet Collection tab as soon as it lights up.
What to do with the rewards
- Spend the wildcard crystals on Genus Insight, saving them for the Special family.
- Use Empathy Candy for pet transform; it needs a pet at Insight Level 3.
- Need more crystals between milestones? See Soul Crystal farming.
