THE GOAL

Own a fortress and take advantage of high pranas(experience points) by killing monsters inside the fortress dungeon. An ashram can also earn a random rare item by collecting the 4 Kaustbams and merging them into one.


THE BASICS/MUST-HAVES

- Must belong to an Ashram.
- A total of four fortresses, namely the Mahi Druga, Ab Druga, Danba Druga and Nar Druga can be found in the map.
- To get there, use a portal in Anu Village, pay 20,000 rupiahs as entrance fee and choose from any of the four portals: northwest stand, northeast stand, southwest stand and southeast stand.


INSIDE THE FORTRESS WARFARE MAP

Once inside the Fortress Warfare area, players from opposing Ashrams can now attack each other. However, once an Ashram forms an alliance with another Ashram, the so-called "friendly-fire" mode will be activated resulting to damage for accidental attacks from Ashram-mates. When character is killed in any of the Druga Arenas, he/she may choose one of the four portals as the resurrection place.

Exiting the game while inside the Druga zone will automatically result to the user's character respawning in Anu village during his/her next log-on. Ashrams that already own their fortress may instantly move to the "meeting rooms" which are located at the left side of each fortress. The rooms can be access by using a Ziva Pustika.


THE BATTLE ZONE

The Battle Zone is an unlimited Player Kill (PK) area found at the center of the map. There is no punishment or penalty for PK within the said zone. Players can enter the battle zone by talking to an NPC located near the entrance. Pictured below is the map of the different fortresses and the Battle Zone.




RULES OF FORTRESS WARFARE

- Withdrawing from an Ashram is not allowed at the fortress warfare zone.

- Each Ashram can own only own 1 fortress at a given time.

- Only the Maharaja and Raja of the Ashram can challenge other Ashrams to engage in fortress warfare.

- An Ashram can only form a party with another Ashram alliance.


TARGETTING PENALTIES
