Winner's Benefits

All players of the winning group may claim rewards proportional to the number of Seal Stones dedicated during the Competition Period. Visit your faction's Priest during the Seal Validation Period and select "Get Reward for Seal Stone Collection."

• ◆ Rewards are distributed in Ancient Adena, scaled to the quantity and type of stones you turned in. Blue stones yield the least; Red stones yield the most.
• ◆ Ancient Adena can be spent on consumables such as CP Potions and SP Scrolls directly from your faction Priest.
• ◆ Ancient Adena is also accepted by Mammon's Trader and Mammon's Blacksmith for rare items and weapon services.

All parties entering the Festival of Darkness pay a participation fee. These fees accumulate over the Competition Week and are awarded in full to the highest-scoring party of the winning group, per grade level.

• ◆ For each of the 5 grade brackets, the winning group's top-scoring party claims the entire accumulated fee pool for that bracket. Reward is paid in Ancient Adena.
• ◆ Claims are made from the Festival Guide, located at the Oracle of Dawn during the Seal Validation Period. You must visit in person.
• ◆ Only the party with the highest score for a given grade and belonging to the winning group qualifies. Second place receives nothing.

Members of the winning group may exchange any remaining Seal Stones directly for Ancient Adena during the Seal Validation Period.

• ◆ Visit a Dusk Priestess in any village and select "Exchange Seal Stones with Ancient Adena."

When the Seal of Avarice is held by the Revolutionaries of Dusk, the faction gains exclusive control over the eight Necropolises and access to unique vendors and bosses within.

When the Seal of Strife is held by the Revolutionaries of Dusk, sweeping penalties are applied to all castles across the world — weakening the Lords of Dawn's strongholds and siege capabilities.

• ⚔ Castle lords may no longer hire powerful mercenaries. Only novice-level guards are available for hire during this period.
• ⚔ The defense capability of all castles and castle gates is greatly reduced, making them far easier to breach during sieges.
• ⚔ The cost to upgrade castle gates and walls is greatly increased, placing a heavy burden on defending lords.
• ⚔ The maximum tax rate that castle lords may set is greatly reduced, cutting their income from owned territory.
• ⚔ During a siege, the registration of all clans participating in Castle Defense — except those governing the castle itself and their allies — will be automatically cancelled.
