Phase 1 (Hours 0-8) — Territory Rush
- Focus: Capture all 6 objectives before the enemy faction does.
- Composition: Use mobile squads of 5 — one tank plus four DPS.

- Focus: Defend the objectives you hold, and run Eclipse quests.
- Composition: Split into 3-person defense teams, plus separate quest runners.
- Priority: Never skip quests. Each one gives a flat 500 points.
Phase 3 (Hours 16-24) — Boss Rush + Final Push
- Focus: Kill all 5 Ancient Bosses, then move into the final combat phase.
- Composition: Bring full 20-player raids for the bosses.
- Priority: In the last 2 hours, all kills score double points.

- 🏆 Clan Eclipse Points — the top 10 clans get bonus exclusive skins.
- 📊 Real-time leaderboard — check your position every 2 hours.
Tactics for Your Role
🩸 Burst DPS
Target low-HP enemies and high-rank players. They give the most Eclipse Points. Stay mobile and move between objectives.
🛡️ Tank
Your job is to hold objectives. Keep Iron Hide or Blood Shield active as much as possible. Call for backup when you're defending.
✨ Control/Support
Debuff enemy cores during objective captures. Crimson Aura and Alpha Roar are your game-changers here.
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
