War of Emperium

[ Introduction | War of Emperium | War of Emperium: SE ]

War of Emperium: The first type of siege is available on European Ragnarok Online since March 2004.
Since back then, many heroic battles have been fought and various strategies have deeply been tested in the course of the years. Strong alliances have shattered, old and new guilds have fought together or against each other for honor and glory.

During WoE (check the timetable), it is possible to conquer one (or more) of the 20 castles spread across Rune-Midgart:

Each castle is different from the others and has a unique design.
Castles in the WoE mode are split up into four maps. In the heart of the fortress, on level 4, the Emperium is gleaming and waiting for those who succeed in beating the defending Guild in order to destroy it.

But be careful: Behind each of the portals within a castle, a strong defense line can await the attackers. Furthermore, monsters called 'Guardians' can be hired by the guild master in order to defend the castle at various spots.

Once the Emperium is destroyed, the whole of Midgard will be informed of your victory by a world-wide broadcast:

Guild [Guild Name] conquered [Agit Name] Agit.

Useful information and advice about WoE

• Inside castles, the damage dealt to other players is not displayed, and graphical skill effects are simplified to prevent overloading your computer
• When inside of a castle, it is not possible to use continuous attack with the /nccommand. You have to keep the mouse button clicked in order to not loose your target
• During WoE, physical damage dealt is reduced by 30%, while long-range damage is reduced by 25%
• Skill damage is usually reduced by 40% (please check the table below for further information)
• A few skills are disabled during WoE, click here to know which ones
• Phen Card and Bloody Butterfly Card effects are disabled. Inside the castles, there is no possibility to prevent casting from being interrupted
• Fly Wings and Teleport skill are disabled in castles
• Any abilities having the 'knockback' effect (a.k.a pushing the target back a few cells) loose this effect, but retain all other features of the skill (for more information, please have a look at the table below)
• Upon reaching 0 HP inside a castle, the player automatically gets teleported to the savepoint - but he will not suffer experience loss
• When relogging inside a castle, the player as well automatically gets teleported to the savepoint
• When a guild conquers a castle, it is possible for the guild to quickly return inside of it by using the flags at the entrance of each castle. Please notice that everyone who is not a member of the conquering guild will be force-teleported to their savepoint when an Emperium gets destroyed. This also includes members of the alliance
• Every day at midnight, Treasure Boxes will spawn in the Treasure Room inside the castle. Only the guild leader can go to that room and open them
• When a castle has been taken, its Invest Level can be increased every day which can cost an awful amount of zeny. Economy Invest increases the amount of Treasure Boxes, Defense Invest increases attributes such as the HP of the Emperium
• The maximum Invest level for both types is 100
• Members of a Guild that holds a castle can access the Guild Dungeon. There is one dungeon for every town and all five castles of one town lead to the same dungeon map. In the dungeon, PvP mode is enabled and users who die will loose experience, so be aware of your friends and foes once you enter the 'GD'! However, the EXP you can gain in the GD is worth the ado!
