Node War Objectives

The objectives of the Node War are to battle against other guild members while occupying a fort and holding onto it until the fort's designated end time expires.

 

---

 

Node War Rules

Whereas Node Wars were previously held across specific nodes, the revamp will see war conducted on a territory basis. No longer will you be able to construct forts on all nodes, but rather see a set number of forts activated at random locations based on the number of guilds who have applied to participate in the Node War within that territory. Each activated fort will have a set "end time," and the guild occupying a fort at the end of this duration will become its owner.

Node Wars by Territory

• Changed Node Wars to now be conducted over territories instead of specific nodes..
  
  • During Node Wars, the entire territory will be converted into a Node War combat zone, excluding safe zones.

* The entire Node War server is subject to the appropriate territory's stat limits during the Node War.

- Fixed the issue where stat limits were not being applied to the entire server and only within the Node War territory.

 

The entire territory now serves as the stage to Node Wars. The number of activated forts depends on the number of participating guilds.

 

Neutral Fort Activation & Participating Guilds

• The number of participating guilds (alliances) in a Node War will determine the number of activated neutral forts at the beginning of the war.
  • Random forts will be activated each war day from a selection of #nodes within each territory.
    • If there is only one guild participating within the Node War territory, victory is immediately declared without occupying a fort during the war.

For example,
When 3 guilds are confirmed to participate in the Balenos territory Node War, 1 node fort will be activated.            
When 4 guilds are confirmed to participate in the Balenos territory Node War, 2 node forts will be activated.            
When 5 guilds are confirmed to participate in the Balenos territory Node War, 2 node forts will be activated.            
When 6 guilds are confirmed to participate in the Balenos territory Node War, 3 node forts will be activated.            
For each territory, the number of guilds confirmed to participate can range from a minimum of 1 to a maximum of more than 30, and accordingly, the number of forts activated can range from a minimum of 1 to a maximum of 15.            

 

• • If the total number of guilds (alliances) that have applied to participate in a Node War for a Territory Group is 4 or fewer, a Node War will take place in one randomly selected Territory from that group.

For example,
if 3 guilds (alliances) have applied to participate in the Node War for the Balenos/Serendia Territory Group, a Node War will be held in either Balenos or Serendia Territory, involving those 3 guilds (alliances).

Types of Node Forts & End Times

• The tiers of activated node forts are as follows, with their "end times" set on random.
  • The higher the tier, the closer the node's location to the territory's center, as well as with greater rewards.
  • Once the end time of a fort expires, the last guild to have held occupancy will be deemed the final occupying guild.

Node Fort Tier	End Times
1	▼ Randomly selected between 10 - 60 min & unknown ("?") end times (randomly set between 20 - 60 min)

Node War Status Widget

• Once the Node War begins, you can check the number of activated nodes and their end times through the world map and a widget on the upper right-hand portion of the screen.
  • The node status widget will display whether a node in the territory is neutral/occupied/liberated/exited, as well as their respective end times calculated in minutes.
    • The node status widget is available to all adventurers logged into a server with Node Wars ongoing.

World Map	Node Status Widget

• Through the Node Status widget, you can check the durability of forts.            
  
  • You can view the durability of each node fort with the fort icon within the widget. And you can also check the current durability (%) of the fort by hovering your mouse over the node fort information in the widget.            
  • The border around the fort icon in the widget indicates the remaining time until the end of the fort. Brief info can be viewed by hovering your mouse over the widget, and detailed info can be found on the World Map.            

 

Node War Temporary Occupation: Fort Destruction

• Once the Node War begins, attacking a neutral fort until its durability is depleted will grant temporary occupation to the aggressor guild.
  • During a Node War, when a Fort is temporarily occupied, the victorious adventurer's Family name will be displayed at the top of the screen.

• • Forts occupied by your guild will be highlighted in blue on the world map.            
  • All participating guilds can check occupied nodes and occupying guilds via the node status widget.
  • If another guild attacks an occupied fort and depletes its durability, the new guild will temporarily occupy the fort.

* Temporarily occupied forts cannot be dismantled.

Node War Final Occupation: Hold 'til End Times

• The guild who remains the last temporary occupant of a node up until its end time will become the final occupant.
  • A guild who achieves final occupancy will be deemed victorious in the Node War, and terminate their participation in the war effective immediately.
    
    • Each guild can achieve final occupancy of one fort per day during Node Wars (and a victorious guild's participants will leave the war immediately.)
      
      • If a guild is occupying multiple forts, the first fort to be held until its end time expires will deemed for final occupation, while the rest of the forts will be reverted to neutral status.
  • Node War rewards are promptly distributed to Guild Funds and the Black Spirit's Safe.

 

When Node War Ends

• The following rules apply once a Node War ends (same as before):            
  
  • The "Return" function will be activated immediately in the top right of the display for the affected Territory when a Node War ends.            
  • 10 minutes after a Node War ends, monsters will reappear in said Territory.            
  • PvP between participating Guilds/Alliances will cease immediately after a Node War ends.            
  • Any remaining annex buildings will be immediately destroyed in the affected Territory when a Node War ends.            

 

Node War Fort Repairs

• Guilds/alliances can repair occupied forts in the same manner as before.

Fort Tier Details by Territory

• For each territory in Node War, the tiers of forts are as follows:
  • The tier of a fort is independent of the Node War tiers before the revamp, and the higher the tier of the fort, the more taxes are obtained upon occupation.
    • The higher the tier of the fort, the more centrally it is located in the territory where the Node War is in progress.

* The number of active forts per territory is determined by the number of participating guilds (alliances).

Campsite Installation

Install/Collect Campsite during Node/Conquest War

• Changed the Campsite installation rules to be independent of Node/Conquest War times.
  • Campsites can now be installed and packed up regardless of the start times of Node/Conquest Wars.
    • Once a Node/Conquest War begins, other adventurers' Campsites will automatically be hidden.

Use Campsites 10 min before the start of Node War and even during the battle!

Assemble! and Resurrection Changes

Assemble!

• The "Assemble!" feature for Node War will now automatically display in the top right corner of the screen on the Node War server 10 minutes before the war starts.
  • Pressing the "Assemble!" icon will move each participating guild to predetermined locations in the territory's towns.

* The "Assemble!" feature will be displayed only when connected to the participating Node War server.
- Previous Node War: Displayed at the start of the war if connected to the Node War server
- Current Node War: Displayed 10 minutes before the start if connected to the Node War server

 

Moving Once Node War Starts

As revamped Node War utilizes Territories as battlefields, just as before, characters located within the Node War area will be moved to a Safe Zone at the start of the Node War.

• When the Node War begins, Adventurers affiliated with a Guild participating in the Node War will be randomly teleported to one of the resurrection points within the Combat Zone of the Node War Territory.

Adventurers from Guilds not participating in the Node War or War Correspondents will not be moved.    

* After a Node War starts, The same Focus Node War Participation System will apply the same as before.            
- In servers where a Node War is ongoing, all Adventurers who are not participating in the Node War will have their DP set to 0.            
- Non-participants from Guilds that have joined the Node War will be forcibly moved to the nearest town if they approach the area where the Node War is taking place.            

 

Resurrection

• Improved the resurrection process during Node War so that a dead mount will also be resurrected alongside the character.
• During Node War, when your character dies, you can choose to resurrect at predetermined locations in the towns of each territory.
  • Balenos: Velia, Western Guard Camp, Olvia
  • Serendia: Heidel, Glish
  • Calpheon: Calpheon City, Keplan, Behr
  • Mediah: Altinova, Tarif, Kusha

* The following rules apply to the resurrection cooldown during Node War:
The default resurrection cooldown is 10 seconds, which can increase up to a maximum of 30 seconds.
The cooldown will grow by 1 second per minute of Node War progression and by an additional 1 second for each death.

Annexes and Siege Weapons

• Changed so that the remote installation of forts and annexes in Node War is no longer available.
  • With the revamped Node War, there is no need to construct forts or annexes before the Node War begins.            
  • Annexes can now be constructed using the Node/Conquest War Annex Assembly Tool after the start of the Node War.            

 

• Purchase and use the Node/Conquest War Annex Assembly Tool and Node War Lynch Cannon Assembly Kit from the "Guild Military Supply Manager" NPC in each town.
  • Adventurers with the following positions can install annexes and Lynch Cannons.
    
    • War Heroes cannot install Annexes or Lynch Cannons.

Node War Annex Assembly Tool	Node War Lynch Cannon Assembly Kit (Guild Funds: 10 million Silver, Max x2)

 

• Once Node War begins, you can use the Annex Assembly Tool to construct annexes anywhere within the Node War area.

• • Constructing an annex consumes a certain amount of guild funds, and there is a limit to how many annexes can be constructed.            
  • Annexes can be constructed regardless of whether a Fort is occupied/owned, as long as guild funds are available.            

Node War Constructible Annexes
Flame Tower (Guild Funds: 30 million Silver, Max x2)	Hwacha (Guild Funds: 30 million Silver, Max x1)

(Press Shift+Q / Shift+E to rotate left or right 45˚.)

* Using the Annex Assembly Tool switches to a mode that allows for easy installation, enabling you to move around and find the perfect spot for installation.            
* As before, all annexes and siege weapons are automatically destroyed at the end of Node War.            

 

• Adjusted the installation time for annexes installed using the Node/Conquest War Annex Assembly Tool during a war: 15 sec → 5 sec            
• Adjusted the production time for the Indomitable Flag at the factory during a war: 10 min → 3 min

  • When approaching a completed Flame Tower or Hwacha, an upgrade button will appear.            
    
    • Upgrading consumes Iron Ingot x10 and Melted Copper Shard x10, and it takes a certain amount of time to complete.

Node War Occupation Benefit

Node Tax

• You can acquire the accumulated taxes of the Node as guild funds, as before.
  • Guild funds can be utilized for various purposes, including distributing allowances to guild members upon completing guild missions, rewarding members for their activities, and purchasing items necessary for guild skill.

 

With Node Wars held in all territories every day excluding Saturday, there were moments where Node Wars were held in the same territory for consecutive days.
Such cases would have resulted in lower tax revenues. Hence, we have updated the system so you will now obtain the tax revenues within a specific range without accumulating them.

• Changed the method of tax accumulation for each Node and Territory.            
  
  • The accumulated taxes in each Node and Territory are rewards that can be obtained as guild funds when victorious in Node/Conquest War.            

Tax Acquisition Method
Before		After
Accumulated taxes daily at a set rate for each Node and Territory Obtained upon victory in Node/Conquest War		Specified tax amounts set daily for each Node and Territory Obtained upon victory in Node/Conquest War (no accumulation)

* The tax for Tribute Wagons has also been changed from accumulation to a set amount designated at each departure.

 

Tax Amounts Obtainable as Guild Funds
Balenos & Serendia
Tier 1 Node Fort		2 - 4 billion
Tier 2 Node Fort		2.5 - 4.5 billion
Tier 3 Node Fort		3 - 5 billion
Tier 4 Node Fort		3.5 - 5.5 billion
Tier 5 Node Fort		4 - 6 billion
Mediah & Valencia
Tier 1 Node Fort		5 - 7 billion
Tier 2 Node Fort		5.5 - 7.5 billion
Tier 3 Node Fort		6 - 8 billion
Tier 4 Node Fort		6.5 - 8.5 billion
Tier 5 Node Fort		7 - 9 billion
Calpheon & Kamasylvia
Tier 1 Node Fort		7.5 - 9.5 billion
Tier 2 Node Fort		8 - 10 billion
Tier 3 Node Fort		8.5 - 10.5 billion
Tier 4 Node Fort		9 - 11 billion
Tier 5 Node Fort		10 - 12 billion
Conquest War
Balenos/Serendia		30 - 40 billion
Calpheon		50 - 60 billion
Mediah/Valencia		60 - 70 billion
Balenos/Serendia		10 - 20 billion

* As before, you can attack the Balenos/Serendia Tribute Wagon that departs 2 hours before the start of the Conquest War every Saturday and arrives in Calpheon to obtain taxes.            
* With the above change, we've made sure the taxes in the Tribute Wagon does not decrease upon the tax reset for the Node/Conquest War revamp.            
* The feature that allowed the guild master or the alliance leader of Calpheon territory to adjust the tax amount (10% to 50%) accumulated in the Balenos/Serendia Tribute Wagon has been removed.            

* Currently, there are no Conquest Wars in progress for Serendia.

Personal Rewards

• You can obtain rewards based on the fort tier upon occupying a node.
  • Personal rewards obtained are immediately delivered to the Black Spirit's Safe upon the final occupation of the fort.

• • Depending on the Territory Group and the fort tier, individuals can acquire personal rewards.
    • Added a bonus reward for occupying a fort marked with a "?", the end time of which is unknown.

* Note that if you participate in a Node War but fail to occupy a fort, you will not receive personal rewards.

* Changed the personal rewards for participating in Conquest War to be immediately delivered to the Black Spirit's Safe at the end of the war.  
* Following the above change, the Reward button in the Guild (G) - Guild Member Status has been removed. 
- Accordingly, rewards not claimed after participating in the Node/Conquest War have been delivered to the Black Spirit's Safe during today's maintenance.

 

Chilling Fragment

• Added the item "Chilling Fragment", which can be obtained through Node War.
  
  • It can be acquired as a personal reward once a fort is occupied in Node War in the Mediah & Valencia Territory or the higher grade Territory.
    
    • You can get more of them in the Calpheon & Kamasylvia Territory than in the Valencia & Mediah Territory.
  • It is stored in the Manage Currency UI upon acquisition and can be exchanged for designated items.

  • The Guild Master War Vendor NPC has moved to the vicinity of the Guild Manager in each town.

Doubled Node Investment Benefits (Across Entire Territory Group)

• Changed the effects of double Node Investment Benefits for connected Monster Zones when occupying a Node as follows:
  • When occupied, Node Investment Benefits for the entire Territory to which the Node belongs to, and other Territories within the same group, will be doubled for one week.
    (For example, if you occupy a Tier 3 Fort in a Calpheon territory Node War, the Node Investment Benefits for both Calpheon and Kamasylvia regions will be doubled for one week.)
    • If you then participate in a Node War and reoccupy a Node within the same Territory, the period of doubled Node Investment Benefits will be reset.
    • The remaining time of double Node Investment Benefits can be checked in the right side of the Guild (G) window under Occupation Information.

Node War Buff Benefits

In addition to individual rewards that can be obtained from participating in and winning a Node War, we've also added powerful buff effects.

 

These effects are granted to guilds that have fiercely participated in Node Wars, allowing them to reap benefits useful in activities such as PvE and Life Skills following a victory to help guilds prepare for the next war. As a guild progresses to higher levels, they can enjoy even greater effects.

 

The intent behind this is to encourage more guilds to participate eagerly in Node Wars and for those victorious in higher-level Node Wars to enjoy more potent effects, as well as to cast their fame among other guilds. Of course, it's important to note that this effect is only granted to guilds that have met the conditions for Node War Participation rewards.

• Added buffs to Node War participation & victory rewards.            
  
  • When you participate in and/or win a Node War, you can obtain the buff via Node War Rewards from the Black Spirit's Safe.            
    
    • Each of these rewards includes combat and life specialized scroll items, one of each type. Activating a scroll will apply a buff to your character for 10 hours.

Node War Titles

Following personal rewards and guild buffs, the revamped Node War also introduces new titles to honor individual achievements. Similar to how titles are obtained by killing opponents in Conquest War, you can now acquire 3 titles based on your kill count in Node Wars. This will allow skilled adventurers to showcase their prowess to others.

• Added exclusive titles for Node War.            
  
  • You can obtain the titles based on the number of enemies killed during a Node War, and once acquired, you can use the titles for one week (7 days).

 * Only kills within the area (territory) where the Node War is taking place is counted.

Trap Items

• Unchanged from before, during Node Wars, each participant can use up to a maximum of 3 trap items.

 

Node War Fort Reset

  • Changed the rules for a Lord's Guild participation in Node Wars as follows:          
    
    • Changed so that when a Lord's Guild participates and wins in a Node War, they will now occupy the Fort instead of liberating it.
    • As a result, when a Lord's Guild wins a Node War, they can occupy the Fort without liberating it, making them eligible to receive Node War Rewards such as taxes. 
    • Changed the number of times a Lord's Guild can participate in Node Wars from 2 to 6 times per week.  
    • However, if a Lord's Guild does not meet the conditions for returning their participation opportunities, all remaining attempts will be consumed, the same as before.

Requirement

Total Kill/Death count of 100 or more for the adventurer's guild/alliance during the Node War or capture a fort at least once temporarily (Records of kills while mounted on annexes/siege seapons such as flame towers or Hwachas are not included.)

* Node War Participation Opportunity return requirement is different from the Node War participation reward requirement.

 

Conquest War Participation Requirements

• Changed so that you can participate in Conquest War regardless of the territory, provided you have occupied at least one node.            
• Despite the reset of occupied nodes in the revamped Node War, you can still participate in Conquest War by occupying at least one node from Sunday to Friday. Check your eligibility for Conquest War via the icon in the Guild (G) - Guild Information.

To maximize this effect, players often activate the food before participating in content and manage the timing carefully.

• Added Special Attack Evasion Rate +5% to Exquisite Cron Meal effects.

The Kaia Necklace and Chimera's Pupil Gem, which were primarily used to bypass stat limits in Node Wars with their special attack extra damage effects, have been removed to align with the Node War revamp and lower the hurdle for more guilds.

  • Changed so that they can no longer be purchased.
