Sieges are organized warfare that occurs at nation controlled locations and guild provinces, often requiring the use of large parties and siege equipment. Sieges at nation controlled locations can be started any time, with some limitations such as Nightlock.
Players wishing to use siege equipment will need to generate siege points in order to spawn siege equipment from either the Siege Camp, Siege Tent, or the Siege Engineer.
For information about sieges at guild provinces see: State of War.
Map Indicators
On the world map, a flag on fire indicates a siege is occurring. All individuals in the game can see the same information, regardless of distance or nation.
Flags have 2 graphics that indicate the seriousness of a siege:
- Flag highlighted + on fire= multiple enemies nearby OR at least 1 enemy with siege equipment.
- Flag on fire= 1-3 enemies nearby without siege equipment.
Often a siege will begin with the flag on fire and then "escalates" to the flag highlighted + on fire.
When leading a party to begin a siege, leaders will often avoid "lighting" a flag for as long as possible to use the element of surprise to their advantage.
When a location flag on the front line is under siege, it cannot be fast traveled to. Flags not on the front line that are under siege can be fast traveled to.
