Battles
The battles will take place in 3-round fights (best of 3), with the party that wins 2 rounds winning the contest and advancing to the next stage.
- Preparation phase - The two teams will be moved and the cooldown of all skills will be reset.
- Rebuff phase - Participants have their HP/CP/MP recovered and 60 seconds will be counted for the teams to rebuff each other.
- Start of the first round - After the rebuff phase, the round begins and lasts until one of the teams has all their players dead or the round time runs out.
The event will be controlled by the Admin (Impulse) who will move the teams to the center of the arena and execute the commands to start the battles.
Rounds
- Each round has a maximum duration of 5 minutes, and if one of the teams is not defeated within that time, the round ends in a draw.
- At the start of each round, players have their HP/CP/MP restored.
- If a player is disconnected in the round, the team remains fighting, that player can reconnect for the next round.
- In the second and third rounds, the waiting time is 15 seconds until the battle begins.
- If all the rounds are drawn, the battle ends in a draw between the teams and will have to be played again.
