Tactics for Your Role
🩸 Burst DPS
Target low-HP enemies and high-rank players for maximum Eclipse Points. Stay mobile between objectives.
🛡️ Tank
Hold objectives. Iron Hide or Blood Shield uptime critical. Call for backup when defending.
✨ Control/Support
Debuff enemy cores during objective captures. Your Crimson Aura / Alpha Roar are game-changers.
Common Mistakes
- ❌ Going solo — Eclipse War rewards groups; solo ops get overwhelmed
- ❌ Ignoring quests — 500 points each is huge cumulative
- ❌ Over-focusing PvP — objective holding earns more than kills
- ❌ Logging off for 12+ hours — you lose the 4-hour bonus
- ❌ Skipping pre-war buffs — consumables from alchemy help a lot
