Energy Surge Season
Between Guild Seasons 13 and 14, there will be a shorter standalone season with its own unique rules and schedule. This season will be called the Energy Surge season, as it will offer increased Invasion Days that are much closer together than usual, and with greatly increasing Season Point rewards and Siphoned Energy rewards each time. The Season Point Score will also qualify guilds to determine the Hideout HQ declaration rights for Season 14.

Here is an explanation about the upcoming Hideout HQs: ... Read more

Hey everyone,

We have updated the chart below with the most current information on Outlands zones. Most importantly, this chart now includes the Quality Level of each zone. While this information can be obtained ingame based on a zone's crafting bonuses, there is not yet a specific way to obtain this information directly.

Please note that Territory Season Points can be further increased by a factor of 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8 or 2 by raising your Tower Level through Crystal League matches. For more information on that, visit: ... Read more

After the release of today's patch, players are unable to enter Hideouts while they are being upgraded. We are working to resolve this issue but do not currently have an ETA for when this will be fixed.

Until further updates, please assume the entrance of any Hideout under construction cannot be used. Note that this issue only affects the entry area from immediately outside the Hideout; Travel Planners can still be used to travel to and from a Hideout if it is set as the player's "home".


*UPDATE: there is also another bug since the patch today: when exiting a hideout you receive the invulnerability buff normally, but once you start channeling to get back in you are able to receive damage even though the visual effect of the buff is still there. Taking damage will interrupt the channel. This only happens to players who do not have their home set in the hideout.

IMPORTANT!!: Exploiting this bug will lead to punishment. If you are subject to thi... Read more

After the release of today's patch, players are unable to enter Hideouts while they are under construction. We are working to resolve this issue but do not currently have an ETA for when this will be fixed.
