Blue Battlefield Progress Rules
- The Blue Battlefield takes place in the Balenos Sea.
- Depending on the number of guilds participating in the Blue Battlefield, a Blue Battlefield Fortress will be created on one of the islands below.
- The fort tiers of the Blue Battlefield are as follows:
| Blue Battlefield Fort Tiers | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Tier 5 Fort | Marlene Island | Balbeju Island | Baremi Island |
| Maribeno Island | Ebeto Island | – | |
| Tier 4 Fort | Invernen Island | Anjou Island | Douh Island |
| Wayta Island | Luavino Island | – | |

- Blue Battlegrounds last from a minimum of 20 minutes to a maximum of 60 minutes, and the end time is set randomly.
- There are also ‘?’ (question mark) strongholds where the end time is unknown.
- The rules for creating a fortress in the Blue Battlefield are the same as the capture-type node war.
| End time |
|---|
|
Randomly set among the end times below
Minimum 20 minutes ~ Maximum 60 minutes
and
‘ ? ‘ question mark stronghold with unknown end time
|
- When the Blue Battlefield begins, you can check the number of activated fortresses and the remaining time through the world map and the widget on the right side of the screen.
- In this state, the castle may be attacked by another guild and its durability may be depleted again. In this case, the guild that depleted all of its durability will temporarily occupy it again.
※ The Blue Battlefield fort cannot inflict significant damage even when hit by a character, and takes significant damage from cannon attacks from ships, including the Guild Galley.
- When the end time of an activated fort arrives, the guild (alliance) that was temporarily occupying the citadel at the time will finally occupy the citadel.
- In the Blue Battlefield, only one fortress can be finally captured per day, and after the final capture, the guild (alliance)’s participation in the Blue Battlefield ends.
- Even if one guild (alliance) is occupying multiple fortresses, only the fortress that is defended first until the final occupation time will be occupied, and the remaining fortresses will be changed to neutral fortresses.
Blue Battleships
- The following types of large ships can participate in the Blue Battlefield:
|
Guild Galley Improved Guild Galley |
A guild ship that can accommodate multiple guild members on the inner deck and starboard/port side. Strategically distribute your crew across decks and cannons to take on the blue battlefield. (If you place personnel on the inner deck, you can increase mobility by using the <Tailwind: Rapid Sailing> skill through ‘Captain’s Command’. You can increase your firepower against forts and ships by placing personnel on the cannons and firing directly.)
TIP: Galleys take less damage from attacks from other ships, but can inflict massive damage to Blue Battlefield forts. Since each gun on a galley must be aimed and fired directly by the manned personnel, it is recommended to target the stationary citadel rather than the moving enemy galley. |
|
Epheria Galleon |
A personal ship that can only be used for a set period of time through methods such as special barter. Although it cannot carry sailors, it has stronger armor than the Epheria Carrack. It has damage comparable to that of the Epheria Carrack. TIP: While Epheria Galleons are well-armored , they can be vulnerable to concentrated fire from multiple Epheria Galleons, which move and engage relatively freely. It’s recommended to utilize your defensive abilities to withstand enemy attacks and target the relatively vulnerable opposing guild galleys . |
|
Epheria Carrack |
The Epheria Carrack is a personal ship capable of performing a variety of roles on the Blue Battlefield. The Epheria Carrack’s cannons can also damage the Blue Battlefield fort, but it is better to escort the Guild Galley , which deals more damage. Destroying the opposing guild’s guild galley will allow you to win the battle more effectively. TIP: To achieve victory in the Blue Battlefield, it’s relatively advantageous to hold the Blue Battlefield fort under your own control for a prolonged period. To destroy enemy galleys that inflict significant damage to the fort, engage in fiercer battles with the enemy guild’s ships escorting them. |
|
Panokseon |
The Panokseon is a personal ship that can be used strategically due to its relatively high durability and spacious cabin for crew deployment. Panokseon can also damage the Blue Battlefield fort, but it is better to escort the Guild Galley , which does more damage. You can perform the role of destroying the opposing guild’s guild galley . Additionally, you can use the skill <Desperate to Survive: Rotation Maneuver>, which allows you to take risks by rotating in one spot and firing the port and starboard cannons alternately |
|
General ships |
In addition, you can participate using large ships such as Epheria Galleass, Epheria Sailboat, improved Epheria Frigates, and Epheria Caravel. |
- A new skill for the Panokseon, <Instant Death: Rotation Maneuver>, has been added.
- This skill can be used by sailors with a level of Master 1 or higher.
| Instant Death: Rotation Maneuver | ||
|---|---|---|
| Skill Description |
