Castle siege declaration

Siege preparation.[1]

Guildes are able to sign up to either siege or defend a castle over a week long declaration period.[2][3]

  • Once a guild registers for the siege a scroll creation quest is initiated that guild members may participate in, and it becomes possible to lay the declaration scroll down as soon as the quest is completed.[4]
    • Multiple guilds may register to attack and the first to complete the scroll and lay down the declaration may begin to have their members register to attack (there will be a cap).[4]
    • The siege scroll deployment is a 5 min rooted cast that alerts the region at the cast initiation and names the caster that must be the guild leader.[4][5]
    • If the guild leader is killed, the casting is interrupted.[6] The scroll will remain until it is recast. It will disappear if it is not cast within the declaration period.[7]
    • The scroll may only be placed in a ring around the castle.[8] The quality of the scroll determines the proximity to the castle.[9]
  • Players don't need to be in the guild that owns a castle in order to sign up for the defense of the castle.[3]
  • The guild leader that owns the castle is able to approve guilds that have applied to defend at the castle.[3]
  • Following declaration, the defender has a week grace period to approve defenders, hire mercenary PNJs and set up defensible positions.[2][3]

Node siege declaration

Sièges de Nœuds are declared directly by any player[10] who completes the prerequisites for the siege initiation.[11] Sieges are started via a siege scroll, which is acquired through a quest that scales in difficulty with respect to the level of the node. A substantial investment is required to attain the siege scroll.[12][13][14]

  • Siege scrolls are specific to the node that is named on the scroll.[15]
    • The lifetime of the scroll begins when the node is named on the scroll.[15]
      • Currently, if the scroll's lifetime is less than the siege cooldown remaining on that node, the scroll will be wasted, but this may change in future.[16]
    • The Mayor is notified when their node is named on a siege scroll.[15]
    The method right now is when you complete a quest line and you're going to receive the scroll, you must stipulate the node that that scroll is valid for and then there is a lifetime on the scroll.[15] – Steven Sharif
    • It was previously stated that siege scrolls were specific to a node stage.[17]
  • Once the siege scroll is brought to the node and is activated, the declaration period begins and a countdown is initiated for players in the region to see. This countdown runs for a number of days equal to the stage of the node being sieged.
  • Once the countdown is complete, the siege begins.[13]
  • Siege scrolls are not able to be modified after they are obtained.[21]

The questing that is incorporated as part of attaining that particular scroll is very particular to the type of scroll you're attempting to acquire and that is inclusive not just of the materials required as part of that questing but also the time associated with completing that quest, because we want there to be a reciprocal relationship between how much time it takes to stand up a node of the particular size and the types of quests that are required in order to attain the siege scroll. So there won't be a method by which you can first attain a scroll for a lower level node and then increase or augment or change that scroll after you've completed the quest. You'll have to go through a new quest again for the type of level of node you want.[21]

Sieging will require a similar amount of resources and time to what it took to develop the node being sieged.[22]

A node siege may not be declared for 21 days following a node advancing to any stage.[24][25]

  • This was previously stated to apply only to nodes advancing to Village (organiser 3), not higher stages.[26]

There are new functionalities and mechanisms that come online when a node advances and you want to provide both time for elected governments to take place, which then have direct consequences and choices to be made over defensive capabilities and also gives provides time for that node to collect and receive resources through taxation and/or quests for its citizens to participate in, so that it has available treasury funds and/or resources to allocate towards defensive structures and other types of defensive systems. So it would make sense that if there were to be an occurrence where node advances within that window, that window is reset again for the new stage because there are new correlating services and functions available.[25] – Steven Sharif

During the declaration period, individuals or guilds can register to attack or defend providing they meet the criteria.[12][14]

  • The player who originally declared the siege cannot exclude anyone from joining the attack.[12]
  • Citizens of the node or provincial nodes being attacked are automatically registered as defenders.[27]
  • Players do not need to be citizens of the node in order to register as defenders, but they cannot be citizens of a node that is at war with the node they wish to defend.[28]
  • Citizens of allied nodes cannot register to attack.[29]

Many services are shut down during the siege declaration period, and instead are replaced by preparation quests or services for the siege.[30]

That incentivizes even further the necessity of players to contribute to the defense of a city. It also elevates the need for that city to politically gain allies among other nodes so that they can protect the collective goods of the citizens.[33] – Steven Sharif

  • During the siege virtually all services are suspended.[30]
  • If a node levels up during the declaration period, the level up will affect the node system for neighboring nodes, but the leveling wont occur until a short time after the siege.[36][37]

Server prime-time

Objective-based PvP events such as node sieges, castle sieges, guild wars, and node wars will occur within a prime-time window somewhere between 3PM and 9PM server time. This is subject to testing.[38][39][40]

  • Guild wars and node wars can be declared at any time, but the objectives will only spawn during the prime-time window.[41]

Announcements/Notifications

Cette traduction est peut-être obsolète

Il y aura une annonce/notification globale (sur tout le serveur) lors d'évènements importants.[42]

Les avancements de noeud seront annoncés sur une zone selon le niveau du noeud.[44]

Les nouveaux citoyens d'un noeud seront peut-être annoncés dans un chat de citoyen de noeud.[45]

  • Les notifications d'élection dans le noeud seront envoyées aux comptes de tous les citoyens[45]

Les évènements de noeuds locaux, comme les caravanes ne seront pas annoncés. À la place, ils dépendront du bouche-à-oreille des joueurs.[42]

Que ce soit un siège ou un évènement déclenché contre une ville, ou même une opportunité unique pour un donjon... Ce genre de choses impliqueront des notifications. Surtout pour les citoyens de la ville, qui seront informés d'un évènement imminent, pour leur donner assez de temps.[43] – Steven Sharif
