Description
The Luxons and the Kurzicks are at war. If the alliance battle has reached the Ancestral Lands, then the Luxons have driven the Kurzicks back to their holdout position. Extra defenses and familiarity give the Kurzicks a definite strategic advantage here, no matter how the greater war is going. Each side in the alliance battle consists of three teams of four players (all three teams must be from the same faction) to create two squads of 12. The goal is to gain command of seven control points and by so doing, outscore your opponents.

When this map is being played in Alliance Battles, this means that the Luxons have taken 4 or more Echovald Forest outposts.

Gameplay

 * Control points are captured by using influence, which is determined by which side has the most players and NPCs within range of that contol point. Obviously, eliminating enemy players and contol point defenders is the most efficient way to take over the contol point.
 * The scoring value of a control point increases the more players are within range of that contol point. In this way your team can earn points more quickly.
 * Uncontrolled control points have a score value of zero.
 * Every enemy player killed adds one point to your team's total score.
 * There is no Death Penalty.
 * Resurrection takes place at regular intervals.

Objective

 * Get and hold the control points. Be the first team to get 500 points.

Elite Ranger
An elite Ranger spawns as a follower for control point 0.

Elite Warrior
A elite Warrior spawns as a follower for control point 1.

Contol Point Defenders
When control points are claimed, faction-aligned NPC defenders of each profession appear. These defenders are tough, but not as tough as the almost indestructible base defender NPCs.

Base Defenders
Each side, Kurzick and Luxon, occupy a very well defended base that is virtually impregnable. The bases are defended by the most effective soldiers from each faction, and are almost equally untouchable.

Powder Keg
Drop near a defensive gate to destroy it (Luxons only).

Repair Kit
Bring to a defensive gate to repair it (Kurzicks only).

Battle Cry
Players within range recieve a 25% speed boost, 15% attack speed buff, and 33% faster skill recharge for 60 seconds. The team that holds the attack points will recieve this buff when they are near those attack points.

Tips/Advice
Powder Kegs - These items also cause knockdown and set people on fire for 2 seconds. This happens to anyone near the keg when it blows up, friendly or otherwise.

Try luring enemy units to the walls where the npcs will strike them from atop.
