What is the EXACT date for 2.0?

    Please tell us the exact date 2.0 will be released! This is vital to make plans.


    Also it would be very important to know what will happen with our current arena insignias if we dont use them.
    a) Will they be useless not being able to buy anything from it? (In this case the old items stay but their "price" will be changed from old insignias to new insignias, so we have to start collecting them again?)
    b) We can still buy the current items, but cannot collect any more of them, and cannot exchange them? So we can only spend what we collected so far? (In this case old items stay with old prices, and on top of it new items will be added with new insignias as paying method)
    c) Old insignias cannot be converted, but we can downgrade new insignias and buy old items with them. (In this case old items stay with old prices, and on top of it new items will be added with new insignias as paying method)
    d) Old insignias can be converted to new insignias (but probably with not in an 1:1 rate, obviously)

    (In this case the old items stay but their "price" will be changed from old insignias to new insignias, so we have to start collecting them again?)

    I tried looking up information about this on the internet, but literally every article, reddit post and youtuber says different things.

    Please give us some official information to clear this up!

    Not an official answer, but just sharing my epxerience, assuming we are getting the same as Aion Classic NA did:

    • The old insignias remain untouched (=apprentice insignias)
    • There are different insignias past level 50 (just insignia)
    • One can only downgrade insignias, not upgrade
    • All the current items which require old insignias are still going to require old insiginas for the same price
    • There are going to be new NPC with new items requiring new insignias

    The only time insignias were altered by the system was with the 2.7 update.

    Daeva pass ends next week and I guess they won´t start a new update in the middle of a running daeva pass. So 16.08. is a possible date as far as they already brought a news for 2.0.

    Where and how can we downgrade insignias? I never saw an NPC like this in NA or any screenshot about it. And what is the rate for downgrading? 1:1?

    Just right of the entrance there used to be two NPC, kind of the ones we have now in Aion Classic EU. Like selling miscs, herbal- and mana-treatment skins and such. Those two daevas would offer bundles containing lower insignias.

    While I do not have the NA client installed and 2.7 patchnotes removed those two NPC along with all previous insignias, I am therefore unable to provide a picture. Nonetheless these were the items:

    5,000 Apprentice Crucible Insignia Bundle of Chaos

    5,000 Apprentice Crucible Insignia Bundle of Discipline

    Thank you!
    And no smaller bundles available? I mean I have 3400 insignia, if there are only 5000's bundles that still means that i have to start the farming again from scratch, it doesnt matter if i have 0 apprentice insignia or 100 or 1000 or 4999. The result is the same.
