[Content]

Conquest War Season 5 has begun.
  -  There will be a 3-week rehearsal starting from April 16th. (Details will be announced later.)
  -  Node/Conquest War time has changed. Node Wars will be held from 21:00 to 23:00 on every Monday to Saturday, and Conquest Wars will be held on every Sunday from 21:00 to 23:00. Tax Wagon will depart every Sunday on 19:00.
  -  Forts must be built before 20:00, which is one hour before the War starts.
  -  Annexes can be built before the Fort/Command Post is complete. When the Conquest War is over, the Fort will be removed but the ownership status will remain the same.
  -  In Season 5, the Nodes will be in two types: Regular Node and Domination Node. There are three levels in the Domination Nodes: Domination I, Domination II, and Domination III.
  -  One guild can only own one Node or territory. If a guild owns a Regular Node, then the guild cannot participate in the Node War for Domination I Nodes.
  -  Everyone can go for the regular node, but the domination node must be challenged in order. The Node War for the Domination I Node and the Conquest War will all take place in the same territory, so choose the territory wisely.
  -  For example, if a guild takes a Domination I Node in Balenos territory, the guild will be able to go for a Domination II Node in Balenos. When the guild takes a Domination II Node in Balenos, the D1 Node that the guild used to own will be liberated, and the guild will be able to go for a D3 Node in Balenos.
  -  There is only one D3 Node in each territory. Only the guild that owns the D3 Node can participate in the Conquest War of that territory.
  -  If a guild that owns a D1 Node in Balenos failed to own a D2 Node, the guild can try again on the day when the D2 Node War will be held. However, if a D1 Node War day comes before the next D2 Node War day, the guild must defend the D1 Node or take another D1 Node to go for a D2 Node again.
  -  Guilds cannot go for a node that is in a lower tier. If a guild takes a regular node, the guild cannot participate in the D1 Node War the week after.
  -  The tax will increase as the Node tier goes up (Reguar < D1 < D2 < D3). You do not have to manually collect the tax. The tax which has been accumulated for a week will be sent to the guild fund when the guild takes the node/territory. The tax rule will be the same as the tax rule for Season 4.
  -  When a character dies during the Node/Conquest War, the dead body will disappear immediately and you will not be able to use Medical Kit and/or Resurrection on others.
  -  You will be able to death spectate your allies during your resurrection cooldown. Press F5 to spectate other characters.
  -  See below tables for the details on Node tiers and the day of the week in which the Node War for that specific Node will be held.

Conquest War duration will not be extended when the outer castle gate is destroyed.

Most types of damage will be blocked by the Wooden Fence.
  -  However, characters might take damage due to the difference in geographical elevation. Damage from Flame Towers and the following skills will not be blocked by the Wooden Fence.
  -  Blizzard, Meteor Shower, Thunder Storm, Bolide of Destruction, Wolf’s Frenzy, Sea Burial

The time it takes to build the following items has been reduced.

[Monsters]

Grind spots in Valencia, Kamasylvia, and Drieghan will be reworked.
  -  The monsters will deal more damage.
  -  “Recommended AP” for each grind spot will now work differently.
  -  “Recommended AP” is the AP that will give you the right amount of difficulty when grinding in that area, rather than AP cap.
  -  These changes were made to give you more fun in gear progression.
  -  AP cap for each grind spot has been removed.

Spawn time of the following bosses has changed.
  -  Muraka and Quint: Saturday 17:00
  -  Mirumok Destroyer Offin: World notification on Sunday 16:20, spawns 17:00
