* In addition, the top 5 guilds/alliances (excluding the guild/alliance who became Lord) remaining at the end of a Conquest War can obtain Burning Spirit Rewards (150 million Silver’s worth in Gold Bars, Resplendent Medal of Honor x10) based on their rank.
- Changed rewards when the point system is applied to now be based on the time elapsed from the moment combat begins in a Conquest War.
- Guilds (alliances) whose Command Post/Field HQ are destroyed within 1 hour of a Conquest War starting will now be issued a Fighting Spirit Reward (250 million Silver’s worth in Gold Bars, Resplendent Medal of Honor x36).
- Guilds (alliances) whose Command Post/Field HQ are destroyed 1 hour after a Conquest War begins will now be issued at the very least a Burning Inspiration Reward, as their rank will be determined at the moment of destruction.
* If there were less than 6 guilds/alliance remaining at the end of a Conquest War, the rewards will be issued based on the order Command Post/Field HQs were destroyed.
For example, if there are only 4 guilds (alliances) remaining by the end of a Conquest War, the guild (alliance) who ranks 1st in points will become the Lord and be issued the Glorious Victor Reward, while the other 3 guilds (alliances) who rank 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place in points will be issued a Burning Spirit Reward (V), (IV), and (III), respectively (2nd to 6th place will be awarded 300 to 700 million Silver’s worth in Gold Bars, Resplendent Medal of Honor x36 each). The remaining Burning Spirit Reward (II) and (I) will be issued in the order of those guilds whose Fort/Command Post were destroyed latest. |
