Kurzick-Luxon border

The Kurzick-Luxon border is a blue and red line shown on the Canthan world map. This line separates Kurzick and Luxon territories. Depending on how either side is performing in Alliance Battles the line will move from one Faction's territory to the other. All land on the  red  side of the border is controlled by the Luxons and all lands on the  blue  side are controlled by Kurzicks.

When either side controls a town, this will affect players allied with the opposite side as follows:
 * All vendors in the town/outpost will not trade with them.
 * All resurrection shrines outside the town will not offer their services to the enemy players. This means the merchants will not trade with them and the priests will not offer blessings. If there are no friendly players in the party, then the shrine will not even resurrect the party. If the party is wiped out before activating a neutral resurrection shrine, they will be returned to town. Players can choose to fight the sentry at the resurrection shrine and kill them to activate it, or they can also bribe the sentry. Both options can be activated by talking to the priest in the sentry.

As the line moves, it affects Alliance Battle maps. The deeper it is into a given factions side the more of an advantage they have. For example, If the line was progressing very close to House zu Heltzer the Kurzicks would have a major advantage. As would the Luxons if the line was nearing Cavalon.

Note that Faction-based Challenge Missions (Altrumm Ruins, Zos Shivros Channel), Competitive Missions (Fort Aspenwood, The Jade Quarry), and Cooperative Missions (The Eternal Grove, Gyala Hatchery and Unwaking Waters) cannot be englufed by the border and do not switch sides. For example, if the Luxons take over Durheim Archives, Unwaking Waters (Kurzick) will still be a Kurzick outpost.
