Earn enough Influence during an Influence Race by completing PvP Missions for an opportunity to declare War if your faction wins. You can declare war from the map. Influence Races are scheduled in various territories daily. Once a War is declared, it will be scheduled the next day according to the defending company’s Siege window.
When your Company wins a War, you will own the territory. Manage the territory by starting Town Projects in the territory’s Town Hall that give Lifestyle Buffs and upgrade the Settlement and Fort.
Town Project Boards
Town Project Boards are always located outside of the settlement’s Town Hall and display missions that contribute towards an active Town Project. When enough contribution has been made, the project succeeds and buffs the territory.
Projects can result in:
- Upgrading the settlement’s Crafting and Refining stations
- Upgrading the local Fort’s defenses
- Temporary Combat, Crafting, or Gathering buffs
Lifestyle Buffs are chosen by the territory’s governing Company. Take advantage of active buffs by owning a house there.
The project quests can vary from combat to exploration to crafting. They refresh every 30 minutes, so there’s plenty of opportunities for you to participate. For your reward, you’ll receive experience, coin, and increase your Territory Standing.
