AION 2 Ludra Hunt titles are rewards for clearing Sanctuary Raid: Ludra during the November 2026 first-clear competition. The first 20 Hard-mode parties in each region can earn special ranked titles, while anyone else who beats Ludra on Normal or Hard during the event can earn Ludra’s Nemesis.
The race starts after maintenance on November 4 and closes at the region’s late-November maintenance. NC corrected the official title names on October 30, so the table below uses the latest names.
AION 2 Ludra Hunt titles: first-clear ranking and rewards
The race is regional rather than worldwide. Europe, NA East, NA West, South America and Asia each have their own twenty-party ranking. There are ten players in a party, so a ranked finish covers everyone in that qualifying group.
| Position | Players per region | Title |
|---|---|---|
| 1st Hard party | 10 | The First to Slay Ludra |
| 2nd to 5th Hard parties | 40 | Ludra’s Conqueror |
| 6th to 20th Hard parties | 150 | Ludra’s Vanquisher |
| All other Normal/Hard clears | No first-20 cap | Ludra’s Nemesis |
How to qualify for the AION 2 Ludra Hunt titles
Only Hard-mode clears count towards the regional first-clear rankings. Your ten-player party must be one of the first twenty to finish during the event. A Normal clear can still qualify you for the separate Ludra’s Nemesis title.
Hard mode requires item level 3,000, while Normal requires 2,800. Our Ludra Sanctuary Raid guide covers the November 4 return and the reworked encounter. Meeting the item-level requirement gets you ready to enter; earning a title requires an actual clear.
Everyone outside those limited rankings who completes Ludra on Normal or Hard during the event can receive Ludra’s Nemesis. You don’t have to place among the first 20 Hard parties for that universal completion title.
AION 2 Ludra Hunt titles: why there are 200 ranked players per region
The first party contains ten players. Parties two through five include forty players between them, and parties six through twenty account for another 150. That makes 200 players per region eligible for one of the three ranked titles if all twenty party slots are filled.
Each region has its own first-twenty ranking, so there can be up to 200 ranked players per region, or 1,000 across all five regions if every slot is filled. A party clearing in Europe isn’t competing for a place in NA West’s rankings.
The three ranked AION 2 Ludra Hunt titles come with a purple decorative effect. NC lists them as titles, not additional weapons or an exclusive equipment set.
When does the Ludra Hunt event end?
For the PST event schedule, the competition opens after the November 4 maintenance and ends before maintenance on November 24. For Europe, NC lists November 4 after maintenance to November 25 before maintenance.
These are maintenance deadlines, not exact clock times. Check your region’s maintenance schedule if you’re attempting a last-minute clear. The separate Ludra login event’s 14:00 GMT start is not the deadline for this race.
The AION 2 Ludra Hunt titles event recognises clears only during its own qualifying period. A previous Early Access clear does not place a party into the new first-clear rankings.
When will Ludra first-clear titles be delivered?
The title deadline is December 2, 2026 at 23:59 PST, which is December 3 at 07:59 GMT. NC says qualifying titles will be sent by that point, so you should not expect the reward to appear instantly after the last boss falls.
The Hall of Fame resets for the new encounter. If you qualify, check the title distribution notice and your character’s title list as December 2 approaches. NC has until the stated deadline to deliver the titles.
Early Access recognition is a separate title
Players who cleared the earlier Ludra version in European Early Access are also receiving historical recognition. NC announced a unique title for that achievement when it explained why Ludra would be removed and reworked.
That historical title is separate from the November AION 2 Ludra Hunt titles. It honours the original clear, rather than giving its owner an automatic place in the fresh Hard-mode rankings. Equipment removed from those Early Access winners will also be returned, with upgrade materials reimbursed.
How to prepare for a Hard-mode ranking attempt
If your gear is below 3,000, use other endgame content to prepare first. Our Hard Mode Expeditions and Urugugu and Vakron Hard guides cover existing dungeon content.
The Ludra Conquest Check-In and Daeva Bootcamp offer additional progression rewards. Those events can help you get ready, but only the Ludra clear itself counts towards the AION 2 Ludra Hunt titles competition.
