How skill points work for the Ranger
CalculatedBudget and prices from the client's Exp and skill acquire tables.
Skill points start at level 4 and add up to 203 by level 45. Stigma points start at level 23 and reach 29 by level 45. Both are running totals: the table below shows what a Ranger has at each milestone.
Level 1 of every active skill and passive comes free when it unlocks (the client lists no cost for it). Each higher level costs skill points (Lv. 2–4: 1, Lv. 5–7: 2, and Lv. 8–10: 4), so one skill to Lv. 10 costs 21 points and all 22 skills cost 462. With 203 points at level 45 you can fully train about 9 of them, which is the core choice of a Ranger build.
The client prices skill levels only up to Lv. 10; the skills go to Lv. 40. Daevanion skill nodes add up to +4 per skill, and the planner's bonus field covers levels from other sources. Specialization slots open at skill levels 8, 12, and 20: 1 at Lv. 10, 2 with the full Daevanion bonus.
Stigma skills cost stigma points from level 1 (Lv. 1–5: 1, Lv. 6–10: 2, Lv. 11–15: 4, and Lv. 16–20: 8). One stigma to Lv. 20 costs 75. The 29 stigma points at level 45 train all 4 slotted stigmas to Lv. 6, or a single one to Lv. 13.
| Level | Skill points | Stigma points | Stigma slots | Skills unlocked |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 6 / 22 |
| 10 | 16 | 0 | 0 | 12 / 22 |
| 20 | 61 | 0 | 0 | 19 / 22 |

Point totals are the client's Exp table values at each level; skills unlocked count each skill's first required character level.

Data read from the AION 2 global client (build 0.0.4387.0). How we read the game files
A Ranger in AION 2 gets 203 skill points and 29 stigma points by level 45. Active skills and passives train to Lv. 10 with points (21 each, 462 for all 22), so a build fully trains about 9 of them. 13 stigma skills compete for 4 slots opening at levels 22, 27, 32, and 37, and Daevanion boards add up to +4 levels to 22 skills. The planner checks every choice against these numbers and saves the build in a shareable link.

How many skill points does a Ranger get?
Skill points start at level 4 and total 203 by level 45. Level 1 of each skill is free; each level up to 10 costs skill points (Lv. 2–4: 1, Lv. 5–7: 2, and Lv. 8–10: 4), 21 per skill in all.
When do Ranger stigma slots unlock?
The 4 stigma slots open at character levels 22, 27, 32, and 37. Stigma points start at level 23 and reach 29 by level 45; each stigma level costs stigma points (Lv. 1–5: 1, Lv. 6–10: 2, Lv. 11–15: 4, and Lv. 16–20: 8), 75 to reach Lv. 20.
How do Ranger skill specializations work?
Each active skill has 5 specializations that unlock at skill levels 8, 12, and 16.

Stigma specializations switch on by themselves at skill levels 5, 10, 15, and 20.
What is the max skill level for a Ranger?
Active skills and passives go to Lv. 40, but skill points only buy up to Lv. 10; the levels above come from bonuses such as Daevanion skill nodes (+4 per skill). Stigma skills train to Lv. 20 with stigma points and go to Lv. 40.
