Defense Point

Defense Point Shrines exist on most Alliance Battle maps. Defense Point shrines are only active to an alliance when they are under their control, this can be recognised by a blue light (Kurzick) or red light (Luxon) spreading out from the shrine. When the shrine is not controlled by either alliance, it will not display any colour and is in a neutral status.

Defense Point Shrines are tended to by a varity of units depending on the map and shrine.

Defense Point Shrines offer benefits to party members, through effects and objects.
