What is Dead Front?


Dead Front is a recurring team-based event, in which up to four parties compete in an assault on the impregnable Pokas Fortress built by the Serpent demons. The ultimate goal of the event is to kill off the boss demon, Ophiuchus, and then survive a free-for-all battle. The last team standing becomes the Supreme Warriors.

Application & Entrance





1) Collect 20 special pouches (Fortress Vouchers), which are dropped by monsters at your appropriate level. Take the 20 pouches to Tess at Braiken Castle or Grina at Loa Castle and exchange them for the Fortress Map. Note that there are six levels of these pouches and Fortress Maps, corresponding to the following level-based Dead Front groups: Rabble (lvl. 21-45), Common (lvl. 46-70), Baron (lvl. 71-90), Earl (lvl. 91-110), Duke (lvl. 111-130), Arc (lvl. 131+). Note: If you have extra Fortress Vouchers, you can purchase more than one Fortress Map.





2) Once you have acquired the Fortress Map appropriate for your character’s level, travel to North Ares to the north of Braiken Castle and seek the Chain of Fire. Look on the bottom right area of the map. Step into the Chain of Fire to enter the Dead Front entrance area.







3) Once you have stepped through the Chain of Fire, look for the commander NPC associated with the level of your Fortress Map, and speak to that NPC.

4) Dead Front is a recurring event, and when the time is close, the Party Leader may apply to join the next event by clicking on “Application” in the quest window offered by the commander NPC. Only the Party Leader may apply, and the following conditions must be met for successful application.

Note: A maximum of 4 parties may participate in a single Dead Front event.



6) If any selected players fail to enter in time, they will be excluded from the event and will have to reapply for a later Dead Front event.



How to Play



The winning party will be the one that achieves the highest total score, based on the total points earned by all members. Practically speaking, the winning team will have to prevail in the PvP stage of the event.







1) Each party that enters Dead Front will begin at its individual starting point. As soon as the event start is announced, each player must pass through a gulch in order to get to the next stage of the event.







2) Along the path, there will be three Supply Depots. Each party must fight and defeat monsters to capture these locations. A special score is awarded to the first party to capture each of the three Supply Depots – one possible scoring opportunity for each of the three locations. Other parties that fail to capture a Supply Depot will get nothing for that one, but still have an opportunity to score on another.







3) After breaking through the gulch and going across a wide bridge, players will meet the sub-boss, “Ras Alhague,” guarding the front gate of the demon fortress. Only the party that does the most damage to Ras Alhague will receive the score for this boss, as well as some boosted game experience. The other three parties will get no score; however they will earn normal experience points.



4) Once the front gate is breached, the parties can infiltrate the demons’ armories, which can be found by exploring the areas beyond the gate. Players who can defeat the guardians can take all the treasures of the armories.







5) Killing Ras Alhague opens a gate further on, which leads to the Central Gate area. Once you are in the Central Gate area, you must explore the four side paths and decipher the four Ancient Codes. Only when all the Ancient Codes have been decoded can you read the Ancient Book at the Central Gate and gain entrance to the First Chamber of the Serpent Boss, Ophiuchus.
























6) Inside the First Chamber, you must find a way to open the secret wall to the boss room. Doing so will also close and lock the Central Gate behind you, so do not use the key until all teams are present. It will require your combined efforts to take down Ophiuchus! Any players who fail to enter the First Chamber before the secret wall opens will be excluded from the boss battle.

Opening the secret wall will unleash a horde of Pitborn monsters, which you must kill in order to reach Ophiuchus, who awaits the survivors down the path. All survivors will gain same game experience points when you defeat Ophiuchus, however the party that does the most damage will receive a bonus award.



7) Defeating Orphiuchus triggers the final phase of the Dead Front event – a massive PvP free-for-all battle. All survivors of the boss battle will be teleported into the PvP arena, and the last surviving team will gain extra rewards and experience. However, the title of Supreme Warrior will go to the members of the party that has the highest Dead Front score and the most experience points earned during the event. Based on the scoring, winning the PvP event will generally determine the Supreme Warrior party.




Game Features
Dead Front is only available at scheduled times, when application to the event is active. Event schedules may change.

While playing Dead Front, a table at the top of the screen displays the current scores and ranking.

If you survive the boss battle and are able to enter the PvP combat phase, you will receive bonus game experience points. However, if you are killed, you cannot complete the phases in time, or all of your team have died, you receive no bonus points.

If a selected party fails to enter Dead Front during the event time limit, they will be automatically excluded.
