What is Castle Siege?
Castle Siege is a massive guild war with the goal of taking over a castle within specified hours. A besieging guild that kills a designated NPC and successfully defends the castle for the duration lays claim to the castle, until next siege occurs, during which the occupants can expect exclusive and handsome rewards.

Event time:
Twice a week, every Wednesday, Saturday 20:00 - 22:00 Pacific Time

Rules and Restrictions:

1. Each faction has a castle for which guilds of the same faction will besiege. The castle on the Union side is named Throne Top; the castle on the Chaos side is named Rock Rampart. Players can only enter these map through portals, which are located at (175,330) in Ventriloquy and (935, 180) in Tritesse, respectively.

2.  When the siege begins at 20:00 Pacific time, all non citizen players will be ported out of the map that the castle is located.

3. During the siege, guilds inside the castle map become adversaries so they can attack each other. You can distinguish the relation by reading player name - players from your own guild have blue name whereas players from other guilds have orange name.

4. Imperator King located at (762, 184)) inside the inner room of the castle is the key to the siege outcome. In order to win, the defending guild must protect him while attacking guilds must kill him.

5. If the castle is not claimed by any guild prior to a siege, then the guild that first kills the Imperator King plays the defense role until another guild takes over by killing the King afterwards.

6.  The guild that plays the defense role can go to Supreme Santero for buffer and Arrow Rath. The buffers boost one's physical attack and magic attack. All members are entitled to the buffers. The Arrow Raths are devices to be deployed around the gates and the inner room. They can launch fire balls causing severe damage, and they can be destroyed as well. They can be replanted, 10 minutes after destroyed. Only the guild master can get them.

7. The guild that plays the defense role can use Castle Scroll to come back instantly after killed. The Castle Scrolls can be purchased at grocers in main cities.

8. At 22:00 Pacific Time when the siege ends, the guild that is playing the defense role becomes the winner of the war and the owner of the castle.
