How Faction Wars Work

  • Each faction war unfolds as its own weekly season, with a separate leaderboard for every path.
  • You receive 10 daily entries in Light War and 10 daily entries in Darkness War.
  • Every path contains 5 zones, and each zone holds 5 battles guarded by stronger foes as the march continues.
  • All battles before the final zone may be conquered only once during a weekly season, then open again when the next week begins, while the last zone remains open for repeated farming.
  • Light War accepts only Darkness heroes, and Darkness War accepts only Light heroes.
  • Battle score rises with the value of the encounter and grows higher when your warband ends the fight with more health intact.

Boss Pressure

  • Lumen is a Light sovereign that can stun with Severing Ray, raise Defence Up and Block Negative, and conjure a damage shield whenever a critical strike wounds it.
  • Umbra is a Darkness tyrant that spreads Bleed, weakens Attack Power, seals away positive effects, and grows stronger when critical hits awaken its fury.
  • Both rulers cast Divided Judgment across the whole field, yet Lumen draws might from its own blessings while Umbra feeds upon the curses already burdening your party.

Warfront Path

Both paths cross the same chain of warfronts: Gloomwood, Cinderhold, Ruins of Oblivion, Soul Spire, and a final dominion ruled by Lumen or Umbra. The deeper your warband advances, the richer the score and the greater the chance of claiming faction-forged gear.

What To Farm Here

  • Push the weekly path for milestone Diamonds and leaderboard rewards.
  • Return to the final zone to farm faction gear once the earlier warfronts are sealed for the season.
  • Gather Radiant Sigils and Umbral Sigils to strengthen Light and Darkness research.
