Castle Siege

Description

Castle Siege in the Valley of Loren is one of the biggest guild wars in MU. Guilds fight to control the castle and secure powerful weekly advantages.

This is not only a territorial battle. It is also a test of guild organization, timing, and teamwork against both players and event mechanics.

The guild that owns the castle at the end of the siege gains control benefits and access to valuable castle systems.

About the Event

• Castle Siege is available on the global Crywolf server (Castle Siege server) environment.
• To enter Valley of Loren, move from Lorencia coordinates 239, 13 or from the Move menu.
• Valley of Loren is a PvP area. During the siege, participants can attack enemy participants without using Ctrl.
• Non-participating players can be present in the map, but they cannot capture the castle.
• If the owner guild is disbanded, castle ownership is automatically removed.

Requirements

• The participating guild must have a Guild Master with at least level 200.
