PVP WOE

War of Emperium

Introduction

Monsters have returned to castles, as they traditionally should, unless the castle is currently owned by a guild. The War of Emperium (WoE) rotates between cities in a cyclical pattern:

• War starts in Prontera.
• Next, the war moves to Aldebaran.
• Then Payon.
• Followed by Geffen.
• Finally, it returns to Prontera.

The number of castles open during WoE is dynamic, depending on the number of connected players:

• If less than 100 players are online, only 1 castle will open.
• Up to 5 castles will be open for larger player counts, corresponding to the entire city where the war is happening.

Rewards are available both for the Guild Master and Guild Members, which can be collected at Midgard's Castle (NPC Kwaii). In addition, Emperium Break and Kill ranks are tracked for individual pride and recognition.

Schedule

War Time:

• Each Saturday: 8:00 AM (Server Time)
• 17:00 Central European Time (CET)

Battleground Extended

Introduction

The new Battleground system extends the official version with custom battlegrounds, more fun mechanics, and enhanced rewards. Players can communicate with their team through guild chat, offering better coordination. You can queue for Battlegrounds and enjoy new game modes that push the limits of Ragnarok Online's PvP mechanics.

Join a Battleground

Every hour, a battleground occurs. You can check the schedule at the Battleground room, you can access to it at the center of Prontera.

Happy Hour: Battleground Happy Hours happen daily from 4pm to 8pm, where rewards are increased by 20%.

Teams

Players are split into two teams:

• Blue Team:
• Red Team:

Each team will have their emblem displayed next to their character name, and enemies will show the opposite emblem. In some battlefields, your clothes will also change color to match your team, but you’ll revert to your original color after the match.

Kill Count

Each person killed in the battleground will be counted in your guild information and serves as your personal rank.
