I was trading in artifacts for exploration level and a message flashed across the screen that "______" of Mabius2 recieved 3 AP. I was on my normal character, not my Ace, and I went to another vendor to trade in another just to see if it was a glitch and the same message popped up. What's Mabius2?

    As far as I know, "Mabius" and "Mabius2" are server names, before being changed to their official names (e.g. Mabius became Nao, as could be seen from the Cash Shop shortly before/after the merge). Chances are your account has an active Ace ability affecting a character on a test server (hence the [blank] of Mabius2). Though it's definitely not intended, I doubt it will affect your account in any way.

    EDIT: Seems I've got it too. As far as I can tell, it affects characters that had an Ace Talent before the server merge, as the AP Support is referencing an entry that has been disabled (i.e. your supported character before the merge, since they are no longer in that server). It probably doesn't give any AP, and will vanish once you rebirth.

    I did already have a Merlin Ace that I bought a year ago so that makes sense, thanks so much

    My recollection was Nao displayed as Mabius5. The implication being that Mabius2 is one of the original three servers. My theory is your Ace support is trying to send AP to a character formerly in one of those servers - since the character was moved to Nao it isn't able to find the character name (or the proper display name of the old server).
