Patch-Notes

           

• Members of each realm should make haste to their ghostly ambassador to strengthen their realm's cause:
  • Albion - See the Ancient Paladin in the Catterick Hamlet relic town
  • Midgard - See the Ancient Thane in the Godrborg relic town
  • Hibernia - See the Ancient Champion in the Crair Treflan relic town
• Players should ask the 'Ancient' NPCs for a [progress] report to be directed to the current task at hand.
  • These NPCs offer two quests during the 'supply' phase of the event that can only be obtained and completed during that phase.
  • Once a 'summoning' phase has been started by a realm, the 'supply' phase ends for all three realms and these NPCs will direct players to defend or attack the appropriate Ghostly Summoner.
  • Once a ghostly keep lord has been called forth, the 'summoning' phase ends and these NPCs will direct players to defend or attack the appropriate ghostly keep lord!
  • Be sure to visit this NPC at each phase to ensure you pick up any available quests.
• Earn extra realm points for completing the tasks throughout each phase of the event!
• A successfully summoned ghostly keep lord will offer the new Ring of the Summoned reward, along with a quest to players that pay them a visit!
• Earn the new Ghostly Medal of Valor for successfully defending your realm's ghostly keep lord long enough for them to grant a new task!
• For more in-depth information, a handy guide can be found here that explains the phases of this event in detail!

                  

• The ruined keeps of Caer Benowyc, Bledmeer Faste, and Dun Crauchon, along with their towers, have been restored to a normal, non-ruined state.
  • These keeps will still only have two towers instead of three.
  • Please note that they will still appear as "ruined" on the /realmwar map for the remainder of the event.
  • The 'Resource Crates' for the Supplies for the Cause quest remain inside the now non-ruined keeps. They are also still available on Ellan Vannin.
• The Buggane's Obelisk buff now only awards characters bonus bounty points and coin and no longer awards bonus realm points. This is to encourage players to participate in the event and mainland RvR more.
• The portal ceremony in each realm's relic town has been disabled. This is to encourage players to participate in the event and mainland RvR more.
