The Frontiers Call You Back... but something ancient calls louder.
Sigils, etched with power and purpose beyond understanding, have appeared across the Albion lands of Hadrian's Wall and Pennine Mountains. Their sudden appearance has left a mark across the realm. Once mighty keeps and towers now lie in ruin, their foundations shattered. The Sigil awakening brings forth mysterious containers, gargoyle gaurdians, and stonebound horrors.
The mists have lifted. The smaller skirmish zones you've grown to love have faded into memory, for now. The Frontiers once again become the battlefield... but not as you remember them. A focused war effort begins, rotating every two weeks to a different realm's frontier, starting with Albion.
In this war-torn chapter, only two key regions of the chosen frontier are accessible - Hadrian’s Wall and Pennine Mountains.
Attempts to enter the regions of Snowdonia or Forest Sauvage will return you to your realm's relic town.
Rotating Realm Focus
Every ~2 weeks, the battlefield shifts: Albion → Midgard → Hibernia. Each realm will have its time to defend its homeland… and its enemies will have their time to storm it. Event regions will have an additional 25% realm point bonus on top of the realm bonuses listed below.
The Sigilbreaker
No one truly knows yet what the Sigils are, who made them, or why they were buried beneath our lands. But something stirs when blood is spilled nearby. From the shadows of war and ruins of battle, the creature awakens. Find it. End it. But know this, such a beast is not summoned easily. The cost is measured in the lives of the fallen.
Visit the Sigil Merchant to obtain the quest: [Sigilbound] The Sigilbreaker
-
Once enough players are killed within the regions of Hadrian's Wall and Pennine Mountains, The Sigilbreaker will spawn.
-
This quest auto completes, auto renews, awards realm points (same value regardless of who gets the deathblow), and 125 Shattered Sigils.
-
Quest completion is Battlegroup credit.
-
The Sigilbreaker will, most of the time, spawn at two towers when he spawns. This is intended.
-
Spawn and death announcements will be visible in the combat window, including location of spawn.
Shattered Sigils
Shattered Sigils are a special event currency that can be traded at the Sigil Merchant event store to purchase valuable rewards.
-
Each character can hold up to 5,000 Shattered Sigils
-
This store is based off the Map Fragments store but with some new items added, and others replaced.
Sigil's Echo
We've begun finding strange things near the maze. Old, sealed chests marked with runes none of our scholars recognize. They weren't there before the Frontiers stirred again. Someone, or something, wants us to notice them.
Players can visit the Sigil Merchant to obtain the gather quest: [Sigilbound] Sigil's Echo
-
This quest is based around the realm's maze, auto completes but does not auto renew. Awards 500 realm points and 5,000 bounty points, repeatable.
Sigil's Guardian
Deep within the maze, there stirs something old. We've found a powerful guardian that watches over the Sigils, but be warned! It will not give up its charge easily. We need you to hunt it down and bring an end to its watch!
Players can visit the Sigil Merchant to obtain the quest: [Sigilbound] Sigil's Guardian
-
This quest auto completes, auto renews, awards realm points and 50 Shattered Sigils.
-
This quest is on a respawn timer.
Keeps and Towers
-
All towers within the event area have been reduced to their ruined state for the duration of the event.
-
All coastal keeps in the event area, excluding Caer Boldiam, have been reduced to their ruined state for the duration of the event.
Porting
The ability to port from each realm's relic town has changed as follows for the duration of the event:
-
Keep portal stones have been removed from the non event realm's relic towns and border keeps
-
Teleporters to Dinas Emrys, Rensamark, and Magh Tuireadh have been disabled
-
Ellan Vannin safe port has been disabled
-
The Ellan Vannin Obelisk has been replaced with a Keep Obelisk that will port players to the areas around the ruined coastal keeps of the event area
-
This includes removal of the Ruined Areas solo ports
-
Note: the group debuff within these areas has also been disabled
The Sigilbound Frontiers event in Albion will run until Friday, May 23rd, and then rotate realms.
Daily Quests
-
The [Daily] Solo Road quest has been replaced with a new chain of [Lone Wolf] quests
