Data read from the AION 2 global client (build 0.0.4387.0). Updated for the Nov 4, 2026 patch. How we read the game files

Nightmare Elite Shieldbearer is a level 55 Normal enemy in AION 2 with no open-world spawn in the global client, so it is met in instanced content such as dungeons or events. Drop chances and challenge rewards come straight from the game's reward tables. Monster HP and combat stats are kept on the game server and are not in the client files, so they are not listed here.
