General Information__
The faction system is a PvP (Player versus Player) system where there are, in this case, 4 factions.
Every week you'll be set in a (random) faction. We can station those 4 factions under: Firebreathers, Wind Nomads, Water Tribes and Earthbenders. How do I enter the faction map? Find your Arena Manager and click on him, he'll give you the option 'Enter Battlefield', click it. Make sure you are on the Faction channel!
You'll find yourself in the Safe Zone of Cowards. You'll spawn here if you die.
This is a place where you can find various NPCs such as a Buff Pang. It's a safezone so this means there's no PvP. Just a bit outside of the Safe Zone is ALL PvP. No exceptions. You can seperate the PvP and non-PvP (safe zone) by a different sand color.
The goal of each faction's members is to acquire points. You acquire points by killing members from enemy factions and killing bosses. Killing bosses will give you the most points, but there are just a few of them. Killing players has a different point system, killing an enemy of your own rank will give you 1 point, but as you kill higher ranks you'll get more points. So, what can I do with these points? I hear you ask. You can buy specially PvP based weapons! It's difficult to acquire the necessary points, but totally worth it as they're the NEW end game weapons. They're called '(Shadow) Trinium' and are tradeable. The NPC is located in the 'Safe Place of Cowards' [Faction] Pumaaa.
You get points by killing people and by killing Faction bosses around the map. The more points, the higher your rank will be. (check 'Ranks' for more info. about this)
Player kills
Player kills are a mere 1 point. Unless you kill someone of a higher rank, the points get exponentially higher for killing higher rank than you. Personally I think killing players for points is quite useless, unless you kill someone at a boss so you can steal it. *insert evil laugh*
Faction bosses
There are 5 faction bosses scattered around the map. They all have a spawn time of 1 to 2 hours. Each boss kill is equal to a randomized number amount of points, from 1 to 300. This, of course, can be made 2 to 600 points or 3to 900 points if you use the x2 Faction Points Scroll or the x3 Faction Point Scroll. To find out what these bosses drop, check out this guide by MadHatter.
Where do the bosses spawn?
Everyone starts out as a Nubcake, and as you get more points, your rank title will change:
1) Nubcake (0 points)
2) Aggressor (2500 points)
3) Avenger (5500 points)
4) Savager (10500 points)
5) Berserker (25,000 points)
6) Battlemaster (50,000 points)
7) Grandmaster (75,000 points)
8) Wardancer (150,000 points)
9) Demigod (280,000 points)
10) God (420,000 points)
__- Special rank with a lot of points. Only one member of each Faction can hold this title.
People's real In Game Names won't show, just their titles. You can see names from your allies, however.
You can't see other factions' typing, nor can you use Party / Guild / Shout / Whisper chat. It's pretty much anonymous.
Map Overview
This is how the whole Faction map looks like.
Spoiler:
Mariella's Minefield of Death
A 'minefield' marked with red and yellow and surrounded by fences. Yellow means death. Red has safe and hot spots.
The Forest
Basically a place with a lot of trees (and butterflies c: ).
Safe Zone
Safe Place of Cowards. The only Safe Zone within the whole map.
MadHatter's Mad Minefield
Another minefield! Yellow means death. Red has safe and hot spots.
Scary Tower Of Doom
A tower where fire and killing meet. Can be used as a hideout to defend.
Helms Deep
The faction castle. Where factions gather.
Floating Islands
Floating islands just floating about.Make yourself ready for an aerial attack.
The Maze
A maze.. try not to get lost! (Navigator doesn't work in this area)
Teleports can be found all around the map. These are used to, yes, teleport.
The teleport system seperates 2 teleports, the 1 way and the 2 way teleport. On the picture below you can see where the teleports are located. Red lines are 1 way teleports, Purple lines are 2 way teleports. (1 way simply means there's no teleport back there)
