Event Summary

Preparation

Duk 4 reorganized itself to make room for all players over 2 million power.

Jobs were assigned

1. A group to port over and try to take the enemy crystal, and if failed, start attacking hives
2. A small group to take the home crystal
3. Defense of hives to rein players unable to use a shield

2 Days before the event, notice was sent in realm chat for all players to bubble if they were in a hive.
They were also told to stop farming resource and monster tiles.

2 hours prior to the event, purging of inactive players began.

1 hour prior to the event, purging tiles began.

Execution

The group tasked with taking the home crystal was successful. The enemy realm never made a serious
attempt at taking the crystal.

The group that ported over were unsuccessful in obtaining the enemy crystal. This is believed to be
caused by belonging to the same guild as the home crystal team and a guild owning 2 crystals is not allowed.

Players defending hives were mostly unsuccessful. The point spread, even when losing still favored the
attacking party. If anything, reins just allowed more points to be taken by the enemy.

Rallies on enemy invaders were even less successful. As the enemy won all known rallies, and had the
advantage of using his walls to obtain more point.

Notables

Drained hives were largely ignored by invaders.

Players not in a hive were largely safe from any attacks.
There is very little realm loyalty. Targets were listed in realm chat in both realms. Some due to
stupidity, and some with malice.

Next Event

Preparation

2 GUILDS
Because there are 2 crystals, 2 guild need to be used/formed to obtain both. While this can be
expanded due to realm growth, the general idea will remain the same.

Guild #1: Contains the Home Crystal Team, and home purge team. Extra spots filled with Home
support team.
Guild #2: Contains the Away team, and Away Team Support

Separation of the above teams should allow both teams to max event rewards.

5 TEAMS
1. Home Crystal Team:
a. Consisting of just enough to fill the crystal with the proper reins
b. Not mobile, Extra marches sent to kill monsters
c. Citadels should be defense focused. Troop HP and Armor. Banks and Wards
2. Away Team:
a. All away team member try for the crystal
b. Focusing on accruing max points
c. Citadels should be attack focused. Barracks
3. Home Purge Team:
a. This team follows the enemy with the goal of purging the location the enemy is in to
reduce obtainable points.
b. Citadels should be attack focused
4. Home Support Team:
a. Kill monsters
b. Visually scout for invaders and communicate to Home Purge Team
c. Citadels should be defense focused. Troop HP and Armor. Banks and Wards
5. Away Support Team:
a. Kill monsters
b. Visually scout potential targets in opposing realm
c. Keep track of hives that have already been purged by Away team to reduce
duplication of targeting.

Other Guilds

Locations:
1. Do not form a hive! Hives are only a target in any combat events. Spread out about
5-10 tiles apart from each other. This causes the invaders to spend time marching.
Non-event support:
1. Farming
a. All guilds should understand that they are potential targets from the RVR
guilds. This may include the forceful taking of rss, being routinely purged, and

bonuses.
