The shard is still a work in progress as we refine and tune various areas and systems and areas.

This Britannia is different and we invite you to check out the Beta FAQ which provides an overview on the major changes.

Guild Progression

Guild UI Updates:

The user interface for guild management has been revamped for improved navigation and functionality. Players will find it easier to track guild progress, member contributions, and upcoming events.

“Call to Arms” 

A new way to handle Champion Spawns in Ultima Online. It introduces coordinated goals for VvV Guilds, which encourages exciting PvP battles and interactions among players.

New Guild Level System:

This system revolves around completing guild objectives, fostering teamwork and collaboration among guild members.

How Does it Work?

Guild Objectives: Guilds earn experience points (EXP) by completing various objectives, such as town objectives, participating in hunts and events, and engaging in guild wars. Member Contributions: Each guild member’s participation contributes to the guild’s EXP, encouraging active involvement from everyone.

Guild Activity: Completing objectives earns Guild Prestige Tokens, which are converted into weekly EXP for the guild. The more active the guild, the faster it levels up.

Leveling Milestones: Guilds level up by reaching specific EXP milestones, unlocking benefits such as increased member capacity and access to better rewards and resources.

Maintaining Active Membership: Guild leaders must keep a roster of active members to ensure continuous progress. Inactive members hinder the guild’s advancement.

Weekly Activity Points Cap: There’s a cap on the amount of Guild Prestige Tokens (PT) members can earn daily and weekly. Once reached, further EXP and PT accumulation halts until the weekly reset (Sunday).
