Soul Hackers 2 - Aion Directives Guide

To unlock Aion Directives you need to finish the Arrow's Soul 1F dungeon in Axis first; then you will be able to take on Aion Directives in the room with the teleport from which you enter Soul dungeons inside Axis. These serve as different kind of requests, and they count up to some trophies.

Example when your ally demons have quest item to give you:

You can also learn Summoner Skills here. New ones gets unlocked as you progress the Sectors of your allies. There are some neat, must-have skills you should unlock asap, such as "Demon Skill Unlock 1" which will expand skill slot of your demons by 1. This is very useful when you level up and you need that 1 extra space.

Other good skills are the ones that raise your Stack when attacking enemies with weakness using certain skill type:

• Gunfire Stack from Arrow - it gets unlocked as you restore memories in his 2F sector
• Ice Stack from Arrow - it gets unlocked as you restore memories in his 3F sector

You will unlock first 9 Aion Directives after clearing Arrow's Sector 1F during the story
