What is Catch Up in Caledonia?

When does the event start and end?

How does the event work?

• For the first 4 days of the event, newly created level 1 characters will be automatically zoned into the Caledonia battleground where they will vie for control against the enemy realms!
  • This will be the ONLY way to get inside the battleground zone. Once inside, characters can voluntarily leave but CANNOT return!
  • All monsters, center-keep guards, and siege weapons are removed for the event. The only way to progress is by defeating realm enemies in battle and completing the related quests.
  • Charm-pet classes will be able to create a pet to charm at their realm's portal keep.
• ​At 3 PM EST / 9 PM CET on Friday, March 10th, character starting locations will reset to their default zones and no new characters will be able to join the event. Everyone still inside Caledonia will be able to continue progressing for the remainder of the event's duration.
• Experience, bounty, and realm point bonuses will be granted to both free and subscribed accounts in the battleground to help them progress!
• Earn bounty points for completing quests and defeating enemy realm players and use them to purchase level-appropriate gear as you strive to 50 and then master and champion levels!
• All characters will begin and remain in the same Caledonia zone for the entirety of the event.
  • The following level caps will be in place for all characters in Caledonia and will increase as follows every 24 hours:
    • Day 1 (Monday): Level 19 maximum
    • Day 2 (Tuesday): Level 29 
    • Day 3 (Wednesday): Level 39 
    • Day 4 (Thursday) : Level 49
    • Days 5-7 (Fri-Mon): Level 50
  • Characters that reach the day's level cap will still be able to earn realm and bounty points.
• Characters that are 5 levels or more below the day's level cap will receive the Caledonia Boost buff.
  • This buff greatly increases the damage dealt and greatly reduces damage received from characters that do not have the buff (higher level characters)!
  • Characters with the Caledonia Boost buff active will also DOUBLE the XP and BP rewards for themselves and their group!
  • When the level cap reaches 49 the buff will be given out to characters 3 or more levels under the cap.
• Overwhelming Force system:
  • There is no overwhelming force enabled for this current event.

Ghost Keep Event

• Members of each realm should make haste to their ghostly ambassador to strengthen their realm's cause:
  • Albion - See the Ancient Paladin in the Catterick Hamlet relic town
  • Midgard - See the Ancient Thane in the Godrborg relic town
  • Hibernia - See the Ancient Champion in the Crair Treflan relic town
• Players should ask the 'Ancient' NPCs for a [progress] report to be directed to the current task at hand.
  • These NPCs offer two quests during the 'supply' phase of the event that can only be obtained and completed during that phase.
  • Once a ghost keep has been triggered by a realm, the 'supply' phase ends for all three realms and these NPCs will direct players to defend or attack the appropriate ghostly keep lord!
  • Be sure to visit this NPC at each phase to ensure you pick up any available quests.
• Earn extra realm and bounty points for completing the tasks throughout each phase of the event!
• A successfully summoned ghostly keep lord will offer the Ring of the Summoned reward, along with a quest for the Ghostly Medal of Valor!
  • Please note that players who have already completed the Ring of the Summoned quest can obtain another one or exchange their existing one for another at the ghostly keep lord.
  • Players who obtained the Ghostly Medal of Valor last year can obtain one more with this event.
• The Dynamic Keep Channelers at Caer Berkstead, Nottmoor Faste, and Dun Crimthainn that can teleport players into the inner keep of their respective keeps make their return for the event.
  • The channelers will spawn when their Ghost Keep Lord is active AND the keep is actively under siege (flames on the realmwar map).

• The Ghost Keep event will be available until February 21st, 2023.
