Port Battle



Port Battle is an event that involves arena style auto battles to combat for control over areas against other Alchemia Ports. Port Coins will be rewarded based on the areas occupied after the battle period. Additional rewards will be provided based on class rank, which is obtained by scores.

Restrictions

 * During the Port Battle event period, withdrawal, disbanding or removal from the Alchemia Port is disabled. It is possible to join an Alchemia Port during the period.
 * At least 15 Alchemia Port members must join to participate in the Port Battle.

Schedule
Declaration of War Time: 12:00 AM - 6:00 AM World Time

Battle Time (First Half): 7:00 AM - 11:00 AM World Time

Battle Time (Second Half): 3:00 PM - 7:00 PM World Time

The battle is divided in two halves and areas can be conquered during those periods.

Declaring War
To declare a war on an area you would like to attack:


 * The captain or vice-captain must declare war during the Declaration of War Time
 * War can only be declared on an area adjacent to an area which your port occupies
 * If war has already been declared on an area by another team, it can't be declared again
 * If you declare war, there will be a 3 minute cooldown period before you declare war in the next area
 * If no areas are occupied, war can be declared on all areas except for:
 * Special Region - Tower of Babel
 * Special Region - Little Heaven
 * Special Region - Royal Capital Dynam
 * Special Region - Sephira Village
 * War can be declared on 3 areas per day during the event period and resets every day at 12:00 AM World Time
 * If war hasn't been declared within the appropriate time period, you can't attack during the time for the battle



Setting Up DEF Teams
30 units can be used for unit formations for ATK and DEF teams. You can choose from units you own. The number of units that are able to be used resets daily.

Set a DEF team in an area you occupy to defend it from attacks. From the occupied area, select "Party Setup" to place your team. A DEF team must be comprised of 3 units. Once registered, the team can't be changed until the day's battle has ended.

If your DEF team is defeated, the area will be conquered by the attacking team.

15 of the 30 units can be used outside of the battle time - the rest must be assigned during battle time.

The area icons will change based on the number of defense teams in the area.

Conquering Areas with Attack Teams
Defeat the DEF team in the area you declared war on to conquer it. During the battle time, the ATK team will attack the DEF team in the occupied area. Once registered, the ATK team can't be changed until defeated.

After attacking, the results will be displayed. Details of the battle can be found by selecting "Replay".

Following a 20 second cooldown period, you may attack again.

The ATK team can only attack in the selected area. If you would like to attack other areas with the units, they must be re-registered and reorganized.

When it is time to battle and the area you declared war on has no DEF team, the attacking team can immediately occupy the area.

If an area has been conquered, there is an hour cooldown before it can be attacked again to retake it by the original owners.

Stamina
ATK and DEF teams have a Stamina gauge that depletes with every battle. If Stamina decreases, the units' stats will also decrease.

Team Setup
You can preset 20 teams for ATK and DEF teams.

Seals, gear, mementos that were used on the day can't be used again until the following day. When a unit equipped with a seal, gear or memento is deployed, a pop-up alert will appear about forced removal of the equipment. It is best to equip each unit with seals, gear and mementos prior to formation of teams.

Occupied Points
Occupied Points are received after each battle period has concluded (twice per day since there are 2 battle periods). The larger the area, the more points are received. The sizes of areas can be identified by the icons on the map. Points earned during the event period will be tallied for the ranking.

Occupation Rewards
Occupied Rewards will be given daily according to the area occupied after the end of the second half of the battle. Occupied Rewards can only be received by users who formed an ATK Team and attacked or conquered in the previous day's Port Battle, or users who formed a DEF team at least once.

Ranking
After the Port Battle, rewards are sent out based on the rank the port was at the beginning of the Port Battle.

Following the Port Battle, each Alchemia Port's Occupied Points are tallied and ranked between previously matched Alchemia Ports. If there are ties, the earliest tallied will be higher in the ranking. Then the port ranking is updated and is used for rewards for the next port battle.

The rewards obtained at the end of Port Battles vary depending on class. Class is based on scores. If you never participated in a Port Battle, rewards can't be received.
