What is the Aura System in Metin2?

The Aura System in Metin2 grants your character glowing visual effects alongside permanent stat bonuses. Auras are activated through special items and can be upgraded to higher levels through improvement materials.

Do auras only provide cosmetic effects?

No. Auras deliver both visual effects and genuine in-game stats — HP bonuses, attack bonuses or resistances, depending on the aura type and level.

How do I get an aura in Metin2?

Auras can be obtained through events, boss drops, special quests and occasionally via the player market. Some auras are time-limited, others are permanent.

Metin2 Aura System — Aura Levels, Bonuses and How to Get Them

What is the Aura System?

The Aura System in Metin2 is more than just aesthetics — although the visual aspect is certainly impressive. An aura envelops your character with a glowing energy field that displays different colours and effects depending on type and level. At the same time, each aura provides measurable character stats that strengthen your character.

The system is a good example of Metin2's design philosophy: mechanics that offer both cosmetics and gameplay depth. For beginners, auras are a nice bonus; for advanced players, they are a serious part of the character-building system.

Aura Types and Their Effects

Elemental Auras

Elemental auras are named after the game's classic elements and provide type-specific bonuses:

Fire Aura: Increased physical and magical attack, red glow effect
Ice Aura: Resistance against slowing effects, cold defence, blue glow effect
Lightning Aura: Attack speed and movement speed, yellow effect
Wind Aura: Dodge bonus, movement speed, whitish effect
Earth Aura: Physical defence and HP, brown/golden effect

Premium Auras

Premium auras are rarer but more powerful. They combine multiple bonus types and feature particularly spectacular visual effects:

Dragon Aura: Combination of attack, defence and resistances — orange/golden effect
Moonlight Aura: Strong magical bonuses, silvery-white shimmer
Demon Aura: High attack values with dark purple effect
Holy Aura: Strong healing bonuses and resistances, radiant white effect

Event Auras

Seasonal events feature limited event auras that are only available for a restricted time. They often offer unique effects and good bonuses, but are not permanently available. If you actively participate in seasonal events, you have good chances of obtaining these special auras.

Aura Levels — From Beginner to Glowing Endgame Warrior

Aura garments can be levelled up through the use of enhancement materials. The level system goes up to Level 250, with the appearance changing every 50 levels:

Level 51–100	Aura Garment Stage 2	Moderate	Second appearance after Level 50

Level 201–250	Aura Garment Stage 5	Maximum	Fifth appearance, maximum absorption rate (25%)

How Do You Get an Aura?

Auras are not found in normal gameplay through looting — they come from special sources:

Seasonal Events: The most common free-to-play source for auras
Boss Drops: Certain elite bosses can drop aura fragments
Dungeon Rewards: As a rare bonus from high-ranking dungeons
Player Market: Auras obtained from other players can be traded
Crafting: Complete auras can be assembled from aura fragments through crafting
Quest Rewards: Some aura quests grant an aura upon first completion

Aura Tips for Different Player Types

For Beginners

Don't stress about auras in the early game. Focus on your core equipment and skill development. If you get an aura through events or quests — great. If not, your character is still fully playable without an aura.

For Advanced Players

A Level 3–4 aura with bonuses matching your build is a real power spike. Actively pursue events to collect aura materials, and build up your aura level over time. A Fire Aura for an attack build or Earth Aura for a tank build makes a measurable difference.

For Endgame Players

Legendary auras at Level 5 are the standard among top players. Premium auras like the Dragon Aura or Moonlight Aura offer the strongest combination bonuses. Farming and upgrading these auras is standalone long-term content.
