Introduction to State War
The state war is a massive battle between the Dynasty and Empire states. The war takes place on the Golden Plains map every Saturday starting at 7PM PST. The ultimate goal of the state war is to capture the opposing side’s properties. Every player above level 30 is invited to participate.
How to Join
As previously mentioned, the state war begins at 7PM PST. Since there are players from all around the world, you may have to figure out what time the war is using time zones. Fortunately, there are many websites that allow you to do this easily. If you do not live in PST, please visit one of the following websites and follow the directions to determine the “correct” time for you.

General Information
Once you enter the map, you will be inside a fort. to leave the fort you must talk to the Battleground Teleporter. He is located at the right side of the fort and will teleport you to the North, Center, or Southern gate. From here you will enter the field. If it’s your first time participating you can run around and scope things out. Remember to bring plenty of HP/MP potions and to stay with your party. If you die you will be sent back to the fort and will have to talk to the teleporter again to start over.
Strategy
All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when ableto attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seeminactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are faraway; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.
I. Teams
Every player participating should be in a party. This is the equivalent of a brigade or unit in a real war. The best teams have members from each class who are within the same level range. Decide who will be the leader of the group, and don’t forget that healers will be a vital part of your survival and to protect them.
II. Choose a General
Each country should choose a player who is very experienced to lead everyone. Without a solid leader, it will be a short time before the more organized side is able to overcome the disorderly side. The war will become far easier if you listen to your leader.
III. Defend vs. Attack
The ultimate goal of the State war is to rack up ‘Glory Points’. Glory points are obtained by killing opposing players or capturing their properties. A good army will know when to attack the opposing side to gain glory and when to defend itself from overwhelming attack. If your side is behind in glory points, it may be a good idea to defend your remaining properties and gain glory points by killing those attacking it.
Also, there are NPCs that will attack you that are controlled by the opposing side. I normally avoid these NPCs as they are very powerful and focus on PKing and attack the Steeles.

what’s PST? I only see PST8PDT in TimeZone converter. Is it right
PST is pacific standard time….its -8 GMT so if u are living in singapore for instance 7pm PST is actually 5am GMT and since singapore is +8 GMT its 1pm on a sunday since its 7pm PST saturday…so convert ur location timing to GMT and its easier
