Where: Nidhoggur Agit
The War of Emperium is the best feature of Ragnarok Online. It unites players to form guilds and prove their power through engaging with other guilds. Most players enjoys the skirmishes between their guilds with the other guilds in Rune Midgard . The aim of the War of Emperium is to break the Emperium that resides at the heart of an Agit and claim that castle your own. After a successful conquer, the guild now shifts to defense mode in order to protect the castle from guilds aiming to conquer it.
Last May 22 in the year of 2010, A great battle between opposite alliance has taken place. The timing of the battle is crucial because the scoring for the Agit Lords is about to end. The guilds with the highest points at the end of the Agit Lords will be able to compete for the Ragnarok Philippine Championship 2010.
At the start of the siege, our guild is on defense mode inside our own castle and we stayed there for the first 30mins. Most members were already restless because defending without intruders is boring. Suddenly our guild master used Emergency Call on an agit somewhere in Nidhoggur. I was surprised to see that there are lots of familiar guilds inside the agit. I knew there is something going on that our guild master did not tell us in advance. I checked out the alliance tab on the guild window so that I know whom to attack. Our guild master then made an announcement to the guild that we will be taking the castle down.
At first I thought, it's just a random attack mode for the guild but I was surprised to see an alliance clash. Well to define alliance clash, It's a battle between opposite alliance in which an alliance consists of 2 guilds or more. I haven't felt the adrenaline rush from the War of Emperium for a long time and this battle definitely refreshed that feeling. The quantity of players battling on both sides were enormous. Surviving is really essential at this point. A successful kill is also a big help for the alliance.
The battle was fierce at the entrance because the defense is tight. The only thing that successfully infiltrates the castle was a successful Emergency Call from our alliance. Our guild master was able to summon us every 5mins inside the castle. Each successful summon brings fierce battles which weakens the defense capability of the opposite alliance. We had a hard time pushing the enemies on both Guardian Stones but the alliance was successful in breaking them. After both Guardian Stones was crushed, the battle now is shifted to Barricade battles where in the owner of the castle was on the other side of the Barricade while the rest were at the other side. Just like the entrance battles, the Barricade battles were also intense. Our alliance pushed and pushed the defenses until all barricades were down. When all barricades were down, it comes down to the battle at the Emperium Room. The breaking was quick and our alliance was successful with their aim.
The large part of the our time was spent on breaking the defenses of the target castle. It was a phenomenal battle and a rare sight nowadays. I'm happy to be part of this great battle. I'm looking forward on experiencing such battles in the future.
