Heroic Battlegrounds is a custom way to access the Battlegrounds feature of the official servers. It is located in northern Izlude. You can also warp there via a warper NPC by selecting Special, and from there selecting the free warp to Battlegrounds.
Requirements
You must be over level 89 to participate.
The cost for the first 100 battles on each character is 3,000 zeny.
After that, the cost increases to 15,000 zeny per match.
Signing up and Starting
The Heroic Battlegrounds Sign-Up NPC will allow you to start or join the Heroic Battlegrounds. If you go to one of the scheduled events, you simply need to sign up with the Heroic BG Signup NPC.
If you wish to start your own Heroic Battleground match, talk to the same NPC (izlude 125, 224) with a Battlegrounds Key (ID 10183) in your inventory to start KvM or Flavius. Flavius cannot be started when there are less than 20 minutes until the next hour, and a new KvM cannot be started when there is less than 14 minutes before the next hour.
The GM's can also start a Battlegrounds Mode. Similar to players, they can start a KvM or Flavius match, but they also can setup Mini FE WoE and Tierra!
Note: Players in the future will be able to start a Mini FE WoE and Tierra match via a Battleground Key.
Once a match has been created to start, you have 4 minutes from the time the announcement was sent to speak to the Heroic BG Signup NPC (izlude 125, 224). He will tell you how much zeny you need to have on your person. During the four minutes, you can do whatever you would like. The only requirements are that you have enough zeny to enter, are online and that you are alive. If you are dead for any reason when the join timer hits zero, you will not be warped.
If there are less than 4 people registered for Battlegrounds, no one will be warped. If it was started by a player, the person who started a match will be awarded one point.
After being warped, you are sent to a map with a npc that has a chatroom (As pictured above). You must enter this chatroom to be warped to the map you'll compete on! Once either all the players on the map join the chatroom, or 30 seconds pass, players will then be warped to the map belonging to the mode that was selected.
Modes
KvM is a basic team versus team fight. It consists of two teams, Red versus Blue, that are picked by random. These two teams fight until there is no one on the opposite team standing, or until the 5 minute timer runs out. You need a minimum of four people to start this mode, and a maximum of 10 people can join this mode if it is not last minute. If the mode is the last minute variant, only 12 people can join, first come first serve.
A win in this mode gets you: 6 BG points, 12 WoE points, 1800000 Base/Job EXP
A tie in this mode gets you: 4 BG points, 8 WoE points, 1200000 Base/Job EXP
A loss in this mode gets you: 2 BG points, 4 WoE points, 800000 Base/Job EXP
Flavius is a team versus team fight. Heroes work together to take down two guardians, then attack the enemy crystal. The first team to successfully do this twice within 20 minutes wins this mode. You need eight people to start this mode at the minimum. Getting 12 or more players when KvM is planned will cause this mode to start instead.
A win in this mode gets you: 12 BG points, 24 WoE points, 7200000 Base/Job EXP
A tie in this mode gets you: 8 BG points, 16 WoE points, 4800000 Base/Job EXP
A loss in this mode gets you: 4 BG points, 8 WoE points, 1600000 Base/Job EXP
The following two modes can currently only be started by the GM team.
Tierra is a team versus team fight. Heroes work together to break the enemy team's supply depot. Teams can also choose to break the center crystal to have an advantage over the other team as well. The first team to break the other team's supply depot wins. You need eight people to start this mode at the minimum.
A win in this mode gets you: 12 BG points, 24 WoE points, 7200000 Base/Job EXP
A tie in this mode gets you: 8 BG points, 16 WoE points, 4800000 Base/Job EXP
A loss in this mode gets you: 4 BG points, 8 WoE points, 1600000 Base/Job EXP
Mini FE WoE is a replica of the War of Emperium that is fought between guilds. Teams work together to first take kill an Emperium. The first team that breaks it then will need to defend it from the other team for five minutes to win. If the other team takes it in this time, the other team wins. You need eight people to start this mode at the minimum.
A win in this mode gets you: 12 BG points, 24 WoE points, 7200000 Base/Job EXP
A tie in this mode gets you: 8 BG points, 16 WoE points, 4800000 Base/Job EXP
A loss in this mode gets you: 4 BG points, 8 WoE points, 1600000 Base/Job EXP
Rewards
- View all rewards: Battlegrounds Rewards
To get rewards from the Battlegrounds, you must talk to the Heroic BG Prizes NPC (izlude 132,222). When you speak with him, he will tell you how many points you have on that character. He will also give you the option to talk to him about rewards, in the form of weapons and armor.
Rewards depend on the character you talk to him on. You can only get the rewards that your character at the time can equip. For example, you cannot talk to him on a priest and expect to get a katar. Priests cannot equip katars, but can instead equip rods, books and maces.
Note: All classes may purchase the Black Belt, Decorative Kunai, and Silencer custom accessories.
